  2. Variable-length intake manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_intake...

    Fiat – Controlled High Turbulence (1989–92, Fiat Croma CHT), StarJet engine, dubbed Port Deactivation (PDA), Variable Intake System on the 131HP 1.8 16V and on the 155 HP 2.0 20V Pratola Serra engine. Ford — Dual-Stage Intake (DSI), on their Duratec 2.5 and 3.0-litre V6s, and it was also found on the Yamaha V6 in the Taurus SHO.

  3. Inlet manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_manifold

    Carburetors used as intake runners A cutaway view of the intake of the original Fordson tractor (including the intake manifold, vaporizer, carburetor, and fuel lines). An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders. [1]

  4. Manifold injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_injection

    Manifold injection is a mixture formation system for internal combustion engines with external mixture formation. It is commonly used in engines with spark ignition that use petrol as fuel, such as the Otto engine, and the Wankel engine.

  5. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Components_of_jet_engines

    The air intake (inlet U.S. [6]) is an aerodynamic duct extending from an entry lip to the engine fan/compressor. For supersonic intakes with variable geometry it is called an intake system, referring to the need for shock-wave and internal duct flow management using variable position surfaces (ramps or cones) and bypass doors. [7]

  6. Cam (mechanism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cam_(mechanism)

    The cam can be seen as a device that converts rotational motion to reciprocating (or sometimes oscillating) motion. [clarification needed] [3] A common example is the camshaft of an automobile, which takes the rotary motion of the engine and converts it into the reciprocating motion necessary to operate the intake and exhaust valves of the cylinders.

  7. Alfa Romeo Twin Spark engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfa_Romeo_Twin_Spark_engine

    The Alfa Romeo Modular Inlet Manifold is a variable intake system fitted to the later CF2 1.8 and 2.0 litre Twin Spark engines. [citation needed] It operates by switching between two separate air intake runners of different lengths (one pair for each cylinder) to either shorten or lengthen the path from the end of the intake runner (within the plenum) to the inlet valves.

  8. Intake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intake

    An intake (also inlet) is an opening, structure or system through which a fluid is admitted to a space or machine as a consequence of a pressure differential between the outside and the inside. The pressure difference may be generated on the inside by a mechanism, or on the outside by ram pressure or hydrostatic pressure .

  9. Unit injector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_injector

    The special feature of the unit injector system is that an individual pump is assigned to each cylinder; The pump and nozzle are therefore combined in a compact assembly which is installed directly in the cylinder head; The unit injector system enables high injection pressures up to 2,200 bar. Advantages: High performance for clean and powerful ...
