Odd number of cylinders do somewhat work, but 7 is just really hard to balance. You are dividing by 720 for 4 stroke engines, so an inline 3 fires a cylinder at every 240 degrees of crank rotation, inline 5's do at 144 (why they rev so slowly, they need a lot of counterbalance), and a theoretical 9 would be every 80 degrees, but by that point your crankshaft is so long it doesn't make sense, and a crank that long would be heavy, so it would rev up even slower then i5's do And then 7 is 102.857..., so even worse. They do exist, but aa far as I know only in ships, or as generators, where they barely rev, so they aren't stressed and their imbalance doesn't really matter

But why that specific number for these engines as well? Thats kinda the part that i dont really understand.

@istvanlorinczi28178 ай бұрын
@@unkindled6410 what 720°? Because 4 strokes (intake, compression, power, exhaust) needs the piston to move up and down twice to complete 1 cycle, so it needs 2 crankshaft revelations (or revs). 2 crankshaft revelations means the crank turns 720°. If someone was brave (or stupid) enough to make it a 2 stroke, that would be 360° of crank rotation, so for an inline 7 would be 360/7=51.4285... degrees between a cylinder firing

High end supercars build v12’s because they are inherently balanced. This means they don’t need counter weights on the crank shaft or balance shafts to mitigate vibration. Counter weights and counter shafts both cause parasitic losses that cost engine power and reduce throttle response. Supercar manufacturers also use the v10 solely because of the sound. No other engine configuration can produce an exhaust note so pleasing to the ear than a v10 with its exhaust note that’s a perfect 5th.

The thing about 6 cylinders is that if you divide 720 degrees ÷ 6 cylinders, you get a whole number of 120, that being the split between crankshaft journals, as well as bank angle. So a perfectly balanced V6 has crank throws at 120 degrees apart with a 120-degree bank angle (I believe ferrari has one). Now, most V6s are 60 - or 90-degree bank angles. This mostly has to do with smaller packaging or shares tooling with other engines. Where 7 cylinders, 720 degrees ÷ 7 = a repeating number, it comes out to something like 102.857.... This means a 7 cylinder is incredibly hard to balance at high RPM, because there isn't an even interval like, 3, 5, or even 9 cylinder engines. There are some examples of 7 and 14 cylinder engines, but like he mentions in this video almost all are exclusively industrial. So Low RPM high torque applications. V14 engines would suffer the same balancing issues as a inline 7 especially because it shares the same crankshaft assuming a 51.42857... degree bank angle, to make it 'balanced'. TLDR: Literally it is better in a supercar to have something that is easily and/or naturally balanced like a V12 or V16. Hell the maclaren F1 had a V12 without a flywheel, they are that well balanced. A V14 or I7 would require massive counterweights, balance shafts, and a large flywheel to make it smooth enough to rev high. Completely taking away the throttle response that super cars are known for.

So far I do now that a formula 1 team BRM had an H16 which was two v8 banks on top of one another. It was very unreliable. I hear they also had a V16 at one point, but I’m not sure about that. Ultimately I do think because a crankshaft needs to rotate 360 degrees, you start looking for combinations where each piston drives a certain degree of the rotation. That would in my mind help map out the firing sequence. Now, I’m not an automotive engineer so I may get this wrong, but just about every combination of common engine could fall into this. V12-30° Per Cylinder V10-36° PC V8-45° PC I6/V6-60° PC I5-72°PC I4-90° PC W16-22.5° PC which feels like the outlier

Thats not quite how engine balancing works. There's a lot of complicated math behind it but a v12 is inherently perfectly balanced, which makes it unique among v engines because it's the only (commonly used) one to achieve that. A v6 is nearly perfectly balanced, but the next amount of cylinders that would be balanced is a v24. This all stems from the inline 6 configuration being the lowest number of cylinder configuration to be inherently balanced by design.

A V6 would be well balanced with a 120° V angle, but as far as I know all commercial V6s use V angles of 90°≥...

A Straight Six is evenly balanced across all the three axes hence it has hardly any vibrations. A V-12 is effectively two Straight Six engines clubbed together to enhance performance and reduce the operational costs.

4 stroke engines with one piston have a firing interval each 720 degress, right? If you have a V8 that is between firings your crank shaft will rotate 720/8 = 90 degrees. If you have a V4 (you have a flat four) = 720/4 = 180 degrees. Yep, firing interval matches the angle of the V between both cylinder banks to ensure equilibrium. Thus what happens with a V14 = 720/14 = 51.42 (which is not ideal as it is an irrational number).

Both pay for this in length, the only car I can remember off-hand to have a transversally mounted V12 was the Lamborghini Miura. That makes for a tight squeeze.

The reason there's no small v14 is because 720 degrees of crankshaft rotation is what 4 cycle engines need to make every single firing of each cylinder happen, you get a number with a decimal point if you divide 720 by 14. The firing intervals would be very unbalanced and it would cause a very bad vibration over a few hundred rpms, most giant ship v14s never see more than 200 or so rpms, so the potential for vibration isnt there.

Cizeta's V16 engine consists of two V8 Lamborghini uracco engines connected back to back :D

I just figured it was the law of diminishing returns .. where more cylinders usually means more power to a point….

it also has to do with crankshaft twist, the longer the engine, the more likely the crankshaft will twist or bow

It would be a lot of extra work to balance a v14 engine, the engine would be substantially larger, engineering cost would be insane, and you would only gain a small power advantage compared to a v12. V12s are naturally perfectly balanced and are easier to scale for those who choose to implement them.

love how bring up v10s and and pretty rare inline 5s for non even number of cylinders like v6s don't exist

In the John Deere forge harvester and some may call it a chopper. That has a diesel v16 in it.
