    1919 Napier Lion II aircraft engine with three cylinder banks. Any design of motor/engine,be it a V or a boxer can be called an "in-line" if it's mounted in-line with the frame/chassis and in-line with the direction of travel of the vehicle.When the motor/engine is across the frame/chassis this is called a TRANSVERSE motor.Cylinder arrangement is not in the description of how the motor/engine ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-valve

    A cylinder head of a four valve Nissan VQ engine engine. A multi-valve or multivalve engine is one where each cylinder has more than two valves (an intake, and an exhaust).A multi-valve engine has better breathing, and with more smaller valves (having less mass in motion) may be able to operate at higher revolutions per minute (RPM) than a two-valve engine, delivering more power.

  4. Firing order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firing_order

    Straight-six engines typically use a firing order of 1-5-3-6-2-4. However, a firing order of 1-2-4-6-5-3 is common on medium-speed marine engines. V6 engines with an angle of 90 degrees between the cylinder banks have used a firing orders of R1-L2-R2-L3-L1-R3 or R1-L3-R3-L2-R2-L1. Several V6 engines with an angle of 60 degrees have used a ...

    An example could be a 100-litre (internal volume) cylinder (V 1) pressurised to 200 bar (P 1) filling a 10-litre (internal volume) cylinder (V 2) which was unpressurised (P 2 = 1 bar) (resulting in both cylinder equalising to approximately 180 bar (P 3). If another 100-liter cylinder pressurized this time to 250 bar were then used to "top-up ...

    The neck of the cylinder is the part of the end which is shaped as a narrow concentric cylinder, and internally threaded to fit a cylinder valve. There are several standards for neck threads, which include parallel threads where the seal is by an O-ring gasket, and taper threads which seal along the contact surface by deformation of the contact ...
