  2. Cylinder head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder_head

    Most modern engines with a "straight" (inline) layout today use a single cylinder head that serves all the cylinders. Engines with a "V" layout or "flat" layout typically use two cylinder heads (one for each cylinder bank), however a small number of 'narrow-angle' V engines (such as the Volkswagen VR5 and VR6 engines) use a single cylinder head ...

  3. Secondary air injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_air_injection

    The first systems injected air very close to the engine, either in the cylinder head's exhaust ports or in the exhaust manifold. These systems provided oxygen to oxidize (burn) unburned and partially burned fuel in the exhaust before its ejection from the tailpipe. There was significant unburned and partially burned fuel in the exhaust of 1960s ...

  4. CVCC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CVCC

    This new system was called CVCC-II. The following year, a standard cylinder head design was used, and the center carburetor (providing the rich mixture) was removed. The Honda City AA, introduced in November 1981, also used a CVCC-II engine called the ER. [3] Its use of CVCC was also known as COMBAX (COMpact Blazing-combustion AXiom).

  5. Single- and double-acting cylinders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-_and_double-acting...

    Typical horizontal steam engine with double-acting cylinder. A double-acting cylinder is a cylinder in which the working fluid acts alternately on both sides of the piston. . In order to connect the piston in a double-acting cylinder to an external mechanism, such as a crank shaft, a hole must be provided in one end of the cylinder for the piston rod, and this is fitted with a gland or ...

  6. Universal Atomic 4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Atomic_4

    The Universal Atomic 4 is a four-cylinder, gasoline engine produced by the Universal Motor Company between 1949 [1] and 1984 for use as auxiliary power on sailboats. [2] Both 18 horsepower (13 kW) and 30 horsepower (22 kW) versions of the engine were produced. [ 3 ]

  7. Crossflow cylinder head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossflow_cylinder_head

    A crossflow head gives better performance than a Reverse-flow cylinder head (though not as good as a uniflow), but the popular explanation put forward for this — that the gases do not have to change direction and hence are moved into and out of the cylinder more efficiently — is a simplification since there is no continuous flow because of valve opening and closing.

  8. Engine configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_configuration

    VR5 and VR6 engines are very compact and light, having a narrow V angle which allows a single cylinder block and cylinder head. These engines use a single cylinder head so are technically a straight engine with the name "VR" coming from the combination of German words “Verkürzt” and “Reihenmotor” meaning “shortened inline engine”.

  9. Inlet manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_manifold

    Comparison of a stock intake manifold for a Volkswagen 1.8T engine (top) to a custom-built one used in competition (bottom). In the custom-built manifold, the runners to the intake ports on the cylinder head are much wider and more gently tapered. This difference improves the volumetric efficiency of the engine's fuel/air intake.
