The VTi Engine (Variable Valve Lift and Timing injection) is a variable valve timing (VVT) system for Prince engine created jointly by both PSA (Peugeot, Citroën, DS Automobiles) and Mini from the BMW Group.
The Ford Modular V8 engines and the V6 Cologne use either the Intake Manifold Runner Control (IMRC) for four-valve engines, or the Charge Motion Control Valve (CMCV) for three-valve engines. The SVT edition (in North America) and ST170 edition (in Europe) of the Ford Focus added IMRC to the Ford Zetec engine .
Swirl flap principle in a four-valve engine. A swirl flap is a small butterfly valve fitted to four-stroke internal combustion engines with at least two intake valves.It is installed inside or just before one of a cylinder's two intake ports, allowing to throttle its intake port's air flow, causing a swirl in the other intake port not fitted with a swirl flap.
Cutaway view of Variable Valve Timing with intelligence on a ZR engine in Techniquest Glyndŵr. VVT-i, or Variable Valve Timing with intelligence, is an automobile variable valve timing petrol engine technology manufactured by Toyota Group and used by brands Groupe PSA (Peugeot and Citroen), Toyota, Lexus, Scion, Daihatsu, Subaru, Aston Martin, Pontiac and Lotus Cars.
Camless valve trains have long been investigated by several companies, including Renault, BMW, Fiat, Valeo, General Motors, Ricardo, Lotus Engineering who developed electro-hydraulic valve actuation in the late 1980s as a spinoff of their active suspension program (both utilised similar electro-hydraulic actuation and control), Ford, Jiangsu Gongda Power Technologies, and Koenigsegg's sister ...
Alfa Romeo was the first manufacturer to use a variable valve timing system in production cars (US Patent 4,231,330). [10] The fuel injected models of the 1980 Alfa Romeo Spider 2000 had a mechanical VVT system. The system was engineered by Ing Giampaolo Garcea in the 1970s. [11] All Alfa Romeo Spider models from 1983 onward used electronic VVT ...
Valvetronic system of the BMW N52 engine. The Valvetronic system is a BMW variable valve lift system [1] which, in combination with VANOS, allows infinite adjustment of the intake valve timing and lift. [2] [3] The system claims to improve fuel economy and emissions, and negates the need for a throttle body in regular use. [4]
A Honda K24A Engine with i-VTEC. VTEC (described as Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control, but stands for Valve Timing Electronically Controlled) is a system developed by Honda to improve the volumetric efficiency of a four-stroke internal combustion engine, resulting in higher performance at high RPM, and lower fuel consumption at low RPM.
