Download or read book Valve train written by Mahle GmbH and published by Vieweg+Teubner Verlag. This book was released on 2013-07-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valve train systems control the gas exchange in a combustion engine, which means that they represent a significant opportunity for optimizing the combustion process. Since they draw energy from the crankshaft, an efficient valve train contributes greatly to improving overall efficiency. The components of the valve train system are subjected to high loads. In addition to wear due to mechanical forces increasing combustion pressures and temperatures, in particular, place greater demands on the materials and heat dissipation of components on the combustion side. This technical book clearly and thoroughly presents a holistic understanding of the valve train system.
Download or read book Automotive Engine Valve Recession written by Roger Lewis and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2002-01-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “Engineering Research Series” title. Valve wear and its effect upon engine performance still presents a major challenge to the tribologist. Although new valve materials and production techniques are constantly being developed, these advances have been outpaced by demands for increased engine performance. The drive for reduced oil consumption and exhaust emissions, use of lead-replacement and low-sulphur fuels, and the introduction of alternative fuels such as gas all have implications for valve and seat insert wear. Automotive Engine Valve Recession aims to provide the reader with a complete understanding of valve recession. The fundamental nature of contact and wear between valves and valve seats is considered, followed by an outline of the essential features of valve operation and the potentially serious problems associated with wear and valve recession in automobile engines. An overview is then given of an experimental study of valve wear and the development of special apparatus for the simulation of engine operating conditions carried out in the School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Sheffield, UK. CONTENTS INCLUDE: Introduction Valve operation and design Valve failure Analysis of failed components Valve and seat wear testing apparatus Experimental studies on valve wear Design tools for prediction of valve recession and solving valve failure problems.

Download or read book Introduction to Analytical Methods for Internal Combustion Engine Cam Mechanisms written by J J Williams and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern design methods of Automotive Cam Design require the computation of a range of parameters. This book provides a logical sequence of steps for the derivation of the relevant equations from first principles, for the more widely used cam mechanisms. Although originally derived for use in high performance engines, this work is equally applicable to the design of mass produced automotive and other internal combustion engines. This work may also be applicable for cams used in other areas such as printing and packaging machinery. Introduction to Analytical Methods for Internal Combustion Engine Cam Mechanisms provides the equations necessary for the design of cam lift curves with an associated smooth acceleration curve. The equations are derived for the kinematics and kinetics of all the mechanisms considered, together with those for cam curvature and oil entrainment velocity. This permits the cam shape, all loads and contact stresses to be evaluated, and the relevant tribology to be assessed. The effects of asymmetry on the manufacture of cams for finger follower and offset translating curved followers is described, and methods for transformation of cam shape data to that for a radial translating follower are given. This permits the manufacture and inspection by a wider range of CNC machines. The calculation of unsteady camshaft torques is described and an outline given for evaluation of the components for the lower engine orders. Although the theory, use and design, of reactive pendulum dampers are well documented elsewhere, these subjects have also been considered for completeness. The final chapter presents analysis of push rod mechanisms, including a four bar chain mechanism, which is more robust Written both as a reference for practising automotive design and development Engineers, and a text book for automotive engineering students, Introduction to Analytical Methods for Internal Combustion Engine Cam Mechanisms gives readers a thorough introduction into the design of automotive cam mechanisms, including much material not previously published.

Download or read book Engine Failure Analysis written by Ernst Greuter and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2012-06-12 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engine failures result from a complex set of conditions, effects, and situations. To understand why engines fail and remedy those failures, one must understand how engine components are designed and manufactured, how they function, and how they interact with other engine components. To this end, this book examines how engine components are designed and how they function, along with their physical and technical properties. Translated from a popular German reference work, this English edition sheds light on determining engine failure and remedies. The authors present a selection of engine failures, investigate and evaluate why they failed, and provide guidance on how to prevent such failures. A large range of possible engine failures is presented in a comprehensive, readily understandable manner, free of manufacturer bias. The scope of engines covered includes general-purpose engines found in heavy commercial vehicles, railway locomotives and vehicles, electrical generators, prime movers, and marine engines. Such engines are technical precursors to automotive engines. This book is for all who deal with engine failures: those who work in repair shops, shipyards, engineering consultancies, insurance companies and technical oversight organizations, as well as R&D departments at engine and component manufacturers. Researchers, academics, and students will learn how even the theoretically impossible can-and will-happen.
