Valve timing — In a piston engine, the valve timing is the precise timing of the opening and closing of the valves.In four stroke cycle engines and some two stroke cycle engines, the valve timing is controlled by the camshaft. It can be varied by modifying the… … Wikipedia
Variable valve timing — Variable valve timing, or VVT, is a generic term for an automobile piston engine technology. VVT allows the lift or duration or timing (some or all) of the intake or exhaust valves (or both) to be changed while the engine is in operation. Two… … Wikipedia
Continuous variable valve timing — offers a unique ability to have independent control of the intake and exhaust valves in an internal combustion engine. For any engine load criteria, the timing of intake and exhaust can be independently programmed [1]. The main variations of… … Wikipedia
variable valve timing — Through the use of computers, the precise time when the valves open and close can be altered. It may be better to change the timing slightly when the engine is at a higher RPM than when it is slower … Dictionary of automotive terms
Engine displacement — One complete cycle of a four cylinder, four stroke engine. The volume displaced is marked in orange. Engine displacement is the volume swept by all the pistons inside the cylinders of an internal combustion engine in a single movement from top… … Wikipedia
Engine tuning — is the adjustment, modification or design of internal combustion engines to yield optimal performance, either in terms of power output or economy. It has a long history, almost as long as the development of the car in general, originating with… … Wikipedia
Timing — is the spacing of events in time. Some typical uses are:* The act of measuring the elapsed time of something or someone, often at athletic events such as swimming or running, where participants are timed with a device such as a stopwatch. *… … Wikipedia
Engine balance — is the design, construction and tuning of an engine to run smoothly. Engine balance reduces vibration and other stresses, and may improve the performance, efficiency, cost of ownership and reliability of the engine, as well as reducing the stress … Wikipedia
Engine control unit — An engine control unit (ECU) is an electronic control unit which controls various aspects of an internal combustion engine s operation. The simplest ECUs control only the quantity of fuel injected into each cylinder each engine cycle. More… … Wikipedia
Timing belt — For other belts, see Belt (disambiguation). Timing belt Timi … Wikipedia
timing — One of the essential factors in a internal combustion engine (Fuel, Air, Proper proportion of mixture, compression Timing, spark). When the piston is in the compression stroke both valves must be closed. If one or more is open, the valve timing… … Dictionary of automotive terms
