I think it would be amazing for people who are just starting to watch your videos and to learn more about cars and engineering if you could write a "step-by-step" guide. You can't understand the more advanced stuff if you don't know the basics first, so this would be your own list with your own videos ordered from basic to advanced. Would be superb and in my opinion you'd only improve your viewer's engineering knowledge and understanding. :)

When talking about an engine being "small" it would probably be interesting to mention the difference between interference & non-interference designs. It'll help people understand why their valves can bend when you lose the timing belt.

@electric7487
@electric7487 4 жыл бұрын
The formula for the motion of a piston and conrod is: D = R cos(theta) + sqrt(L^2 - R^2 sin^2(theta)) Where R = stroke / 2, L = con rod centre-to-centre distance, and theta = angle from TDC. Now remember your double angle formulas? After some tweaking, we can see that sin^2(theta) = (1 - cos(2 theta))/2. There is a cos(theta) term, which represents the primary component, and the cos(2 theta) term represents the secondary component.

If a I4 engine has the primary forces balanced, why are the counterweights present in all I4 engines we see daily?
@GH-oi2jf
@GH-oi2jf 3 жыл бұрын
It’s a given that you balance each rod and piston with counterweight on the crankshaft. If you didn’t do that, and relied only on the pistons moving opposite to each other to balance, then most, or at least a large part, of the mass would be in the reciprocating parts. A heavy, balanced crankshaft is stronger and gives smoother operation.

Flat just means the pistons are horizontal (parallel to the ground), regardless of the layout (boxer, or inline). Boxer engines have opposing pistons.
@electric7487

Flat is a general term. Flat V = 180° V engine, crank pins are shared. For each pair of cylinders, when one piston is at TDC the other is at BDC. Boxer = 180° offset crank journals. Each pair of cylinders has both pistons at TDC or BDC simultaneously.

V12s are perfectly balanced, regardless of angle. This is because they are two inline 6's. An inline 6 is perfectly balanced, so a v12, which is just two inline 6's that push the same crankshaft is also perfectly balanced. Regarding V10 and I5, see Engineering Explained's video on primary balance regarding the equation used. 90 degree V6's are not balanced. To improve the balance, the use a split crankpin which has a 15 or 30 degree offset, though I forget exactly.

Primary forces on a 3 cylinder are balanced. Primary forces on just about all inline engines are balanced. However, on the bottom of the inline 3 crankshaft are counterweights to reduce the pitching motion caused by the piston movements. Note that the zero primary imbalance has no influence over the pitching rocking. The counterweights reduce the pitching moment by about half but also induce a rolling moment. The balance shaft balances the remaining pitching and rolling moments.

I believe this disadvantage of the secondary imbalance can be quite noticeable on small diesel engine found on some small pick up trucks and SUVs worldwide. For example Toyota's 1KD engines (which are 3 liter inline-4) used on Hilux trucks and Fortuner SUVs, and Mitsubishi's 4M4 engines (3.2 liter inline 4s), used in some Mitsubishi body on frame suvs and trucks. These engines, which probably have balancing shafts, vibrate quite a lot, even for diesel engine standards. You can feel it on the whole car and can get obnoxious on the long run. Other engines of this category such the 3.2 inline-5 powerstroke found in the ford transit and ranger t6 internationally vibrate much less. I believe the greatest engine displacement acceptable for an I4 engine is around 2.8, but the most common sizes are 2.5 liters max, and still, there are this larger displacement I4 i mentioned before 🤔

Not a bad engine design, but the only think I dislike is car companies now have cylinder drop fetish. They'll drop their V8s to V6s, V6s to 4cly., and now even 4cly. to 3cyl. Then they will slap a turbo on to make up for the power loss but it's almost never done the right way. Yeah, I understand 2 less cylinders = better fuel economy, however if car companies REALLY cared about fuel economy they'd be pumping out more diesels and hybrids (save for Chevy and Toyota with their diesels and hybrids). Also, a NA engine will always be more reliable and work smoother than a turbocharged one, unless the turbo is done properly and added on to already existing displacement. For example, BMW with their turbos and other companies designing a V8 to incorporate turbos for even more power. Just sticking a turbo and dropping 2 cylinders puts strain on the engine, not to mention lag and other problems. Like I said, great engine design. My 05 Corolla LE runs forever and it works well. I just wish companies would keep their NA engines.

desertfox2020 There's a lot of cost and complexity in making a 2.5 V8 rather than a 2.5 I4, without necessarily a power benefit. The V8 will have more moving parts, and more chance for reliability issues, everything being held equal. There's at least a few reasons why most smaller engines use fewer cylinders.

hi can you make video about big block and small block difference and also the numbering they speak about 428 big block.
@Luc1dKn1ght
@Luc1dKn1ght 10 жыл бұрын
Big block and small block refer to the engine block, or the lower part of the engine that the crankshaft sits in. Really the only difference is that one is bigger and heavier duty. When someone talks about a 350 small block or a 454 big block or like you said, a 428 big block, what they are referring to is the displacement and what style engine block the engine is. A 350 would be 350 cubic inches which is the same as a 5.7 liter. A 428 cubic inch would be a 7.0 liter engine. Again this comes from companies like Chevy, Ford, and Pontiac back before foreign cars were as big of deal as they are now, because they would use the standard measurement of cubic inches instead of the metric liters.

Luc1dKn1ght Saying big block or small block has nothing to do with displacement even in the `1960s. there could be a 350 bigblock or 350 small block.

salty1264 Which is why I said, "what they are referring to is the displacement and what style engine block the engine is." But that is a good point to clarify on. Displacement is not dependent on block style but somethin in the 300's is commonly going to be a small block

Can we avoid this second harmonic with boxers engines? thanks
@V1ralB1ack
@V1ralB1ack 4 жыл бұрын
Yes. Boxer 6 engines are more harmonically balanced than an inline engine. The reason they aren't popular is because they are big and flat and that makes them just as hard to fit in a car as an inline engine. Fun fact, Subaru's boxer 4 engines are angled downward so in case of a high impact accident the framing will absorb the impact and the engine will be shot downward destroying the transmission and saving the driver.

Can you please explain why my carburated 2001 Yamaha R1 with FIVE valves per cylinder has the same HP as the 2002 R1 with fuel injection but only FOUR valves per cylinder? I really wanna know why an extra intake valve proves to be useless.

its most likely not more 'powerful' but rather more reliable, and efficient. simple refinement i assume.
@DrathVader
@DrathVader 10 жыл бұрын
With 5 valves per cylinder design you should have faster response to opening the throttle, because you have more intake flow and filling cylinder with the mixture is better. Also 5V engines SHOULD be able to rev slightly higher than 4V.

It's because fuel injection is more precise, while carburation is a pretty inaccurate method of putting fuel into the cylinders. With this, a caarbed engine basically sucks fuel into the cylinder head, and hopes it ignites properly. A fuel injected engine squirts fuel exactly where it needs to be, and the exact amount that needs to be there, resulting in better combustion (which means more power) and less fuel being used.

why can't you put another inline that connects to the same crankshaft but its is facing down so that the secondary forces would also cancel out, i assume people already thought of this

+yiu yeung Kan They can be used. However, it's a V engine and it will have more parts (two camshafts, two sets of valve banks) compared to an inline. If you want something like a V4, check out Subaru's Boxer engine. They use Flat-4 engines which provide perfect secondary balance.

Ey man... Is it possible to modify a non turbo inline 4 engine and add turbo to it? My car is Seat leon stella 2003 1.6 16v engine... 1598 CC and 105 BHP. It's petrol engine. I would love to be able to boost my car and how much if possible the mods woould cost? I'm expecting at least about 2 to 3k euros right? Also how much HP would i be able to pull out with this engine once it's turbocharged?
