Koenigsegg’s New Cam-Less Engine February 13‚ 2012 by Matt Jalopnik reports on an upcoming supercar from Swedish boutique automaker Koenigsegg that will feature a twin-turbo V8 engine whole valves are actuated without camshafts. Partnering with Swedish engineering firm Cargine‚ Koenigsegg plans to develop a valvetrain system whereby the valves are operated using pneumatic pressure alone. F1 car engines have used pneumatic valve springs since the Renault turbo engines of the mid-’80s‚ but always

ABSTRACT Camless internal combustion engines offer major improvements over traditional engines in terms of efficiency‚ maximum torque and power‚ pollutant emissions. Electromechanical valve actuators are very promising in this context‚ but still present significant control problems. Low valve seating velocity‚ small transition time for valve opening and closing‚ unavailability of position sensor are the main objectives to be considered in the design of the valve control system. Actuator physical

Aircraft engine An aircraft engine is the component of the propulsion system for an aircraft that generates mechanical power. Aircraft engines are almost always either lightweight piston engines or gas turbines. Turbine-powered Turboprop A turboprop engine is a type of turbine engine which drives an aircraft propeller using a reduction gear. The gas turbine is designed specifically for this application‚ with almost all of its output being used to drive the propeller. The engine’sexhaust gases do

Automotive engine Engines are desinged to be two strokes or four strokes of a piston that moves up and down in a cylinder. Generally‚ the automotive engine uses four strokes to convert chemical energy to mechanical energy through combustion of gasoline or similar hydrocarbon fuel. The heat produced is converted into mechanical work by pushing the piston down in the cylinder. A connecting rod attached to the piston transfers this energy to a rotating crankshaft Engines having from 1

Knight Engines - Excalibur Engine Parts Role Information for Knight Engines The government has recently invited submissions from the private sector for the supply of one thousand V-16Z (Class A) automobile engines. Although these particular engines only have eight cylinders‚ they can easily duplicate the speed and performance of a sixteen-cylinder engine. Their compact size and durability make them ideal for military operations and it is for this reason that the military has decided to incorporate

A jet engine‚ like a rocket engine‚ is a reaction engine. It works by throwing mass in one direction and taking advantage of the reaction in the opposite direction. In the case of a jet engine‚ the engine burns fuel (like kerosene) with air from the atmosphere. The burning fuel heats and expands the air‚ and this hot air shoots out of the exhaust-end of the engine to create thrust. Most modern jet engines use a turbine to improve the efficiency of the engine and allow the engine to work at low speeds
