An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders. [1] The word manifold comes from the Old English word manigfeald (from the Anglo-Saxon manig [many] and feald [repeatedly]) and refers to the multiplying of one (pipe) into many.
A piston is a component of reciprocating engines. It is located in a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. Its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. In two-stroke engines the piston also acts as a valve by covering and uncovering ports in the cylinder ...
The Mercedes-Benz M273 engine is a V8 automobile piston engine family used in the 2000s (decade). It was based on the similar M272 V6 introduced in 2004.. An evolution of the M113 V8, [1] all M273s have aluminium engine blocks, sequential port fuel injection, fracture-split forged steel connecting rods, a one-piece cast crankshaft, and a magnesium intake manifold.
You can conduct experiments, and should test all major changes, in either this template's sandbox, the general template sandbox, or your user space before changing anything here. This template provides formatted output for piston engine (including all radial, inline, V-, and rotary engines) specifications per Wikipedia:WikiProject Aircraft ...
Four-stroke cycle used in gasoline/petrol engines: intake (1), compression (2), power (3), and exhaust (4). The right blue side is the intake port and the left brown side is the exhaust port. The cylinder wall is a thin sleeve surrounding the piston head which creates a space for the combustion of fuel and the genesis of mechanical energy.
The short block represents the major wear items of an engine: piston rings, and potentially a rebore of the cylinder bores or replacement liners, together with reground bearings on the crankshaft. Although replacing the rings or bearing shells was at one time considered typical garage work, the need for a boring or crank grinding machine now ...
Intake air throttling changes the amount of air sucked into the engine, which means that if a stoichiometric air-fuel mixture is desired, the amount of injected fuel has to be changed along with the intake air throttling. To do so, manifold injection systems have at least one way to measure the amount of air that is currently being sucked into ...
This was achieved by raising the rev-limit to 7200 rpm, increasing the compression ratio using enhanced, weight-optimized pistons with a curved surface, reinforcements in the area of the piston pins, deeper pockets for the valve seats, single-stage intake manifold, lightweight valves with sodium cooling, conical valve springs, tri-oval chain ...
