In plumbing, the term "45-degree elbow" for example, refers to the angle of bend from the original straight pipe position (0 degrees) to the new position (45 degrees), not the actual angle formed by the joint. On a protractor, the actual angle of the above joint is 135 degrees, an obtuse angle.
Membership on the B16 Standards Committee [1] and its Subordinate groups include a variety of representations from the field in various interest classifications. These interest classifications are; Manufacturer, Distributor, Material Manufacturer, Consumer/User, Designer/Constructor, Regulatory, Insurance/Inspection and General Interest.
An angle seat piston valve is a pneumatically-controlled valve with a piston actuator providing linear actuation to lift a seal off its seat. The seat is set at an angle to provide the maximum possible flow when unseated. Angle seat piston valves are particularly suited to applications where high temperatures and large flow rates are required ...
Choke valve, Butterfly valve used to limit air intake in internal combustion engine. (Not to be confused with choke valves used in industrial flow control, above.) Clapper valve: a type of check valve used in the Siamese fire appliance to allow only one hose to be connected instead of two (the clapper valve blocks the other side from leaking out)
The Duratec 2.5 L (aka Mondeo V6) DOHC 24 valve engine had 170 hp (127 kW) at 6,250 rpm and 165 lb⋅ft (224 N⋅m) of torque at 4250 rpm. Used in the Ford Mondeo Mk 3 and last generation Ford/Mercury Cougar (1999-2002). The Displacement of the 2.5 L VE was decreased from 2544 to 2495cc.
The 4N1 engine family is the world's first to feature a variable valve timing (intake side) system applied to passenger car diesel engines. [10] All engines developed within this family have aluminium cylinder block, double overhead camshaft layouts, 4 valves per cylinder, a common rail injection system with a variable-geometry turbocharger.
Although, in automotive terms, '20V' would normally be interpreted as having twenty valves, this is incorrect. The name '20V' is the name of the trim level of the Nissan Primera that it is found in. It is also a shortened version of the name SR20VE. This engine has 16 valves like the rest of the SR20 engines.
On most overhead valve engines, the distributor shaft is driven by a gear on the camshaft, often shared with the oil pump; on most overhead camshaft engines, the distributor shaft is attached directly to a camshaft. Older distributor designs used a cam on the distributor shaft that operates the contact breaker (also called points).
