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-oi2jf3 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 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.

@LilleyAdam10 жыл бұрын
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 🤔
@Unb3arablePain10 жыл бұрын
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.

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.

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.

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?

ofcourse it's possible, but it's gonna cost alot, you're better off buying a more powerfull one

Vos Well I'd rather have my car modded then buying stock faster... It would be almost the same and modded car is way cooler then stock faster :)

Yamaha solved this secondary forces problem, by using a crossplane crankshaft on the 2009+ R1
