Studies on the dynamics the valve train with machined valve springs

An analysis of the literature for currently used solutions of valve trains in internal combustion engines and analytical studies on the dynamics the valve train of the internal combustion engine provided with machined valve springs were carried out. The aim of the study was to compare the dynamic parameters of the two valve trains for the established internal combustion engine: the first one equipped with machined springs and the second one with coil springs. The numerical models for investigated valve trains, using the Finite Element Method and additional mathematical relationships were developed and presented in the article. The article describes the results of the researches and formulated conclusions.
