IGN TIMING CONSIDERATOINS
• TIME REQ TO BURN THE FUEL
COMPLETELY
• TIME REQ FOR EXHAUST GASES TO
RAISE THE PRESSURE
IGN TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
• HAVE SPARK AT AN INSTANT WHICH
GIVES MORE TIME FOR
– FUEL TO BURN
– BURNT GASES TO RAISE THE PRESSURE
TO THE MAX AS THE PISTON REACHES
TDC
MAX DOWNWARD PUSH TO PISTON
LATE SPARK
• SPARK AT OR ATDC
– INCOMPLETE FUEL BURNING
– LESS BURNT GASES PRESSURE
– REDUCED DOWNWARD PUSH
– MORE POWER LOSSES
ADV SPARK
• SPARK BTDC
– MORE TIME FOR FUEL
BURNING
– MORE BURNT GASES
PRESSURE
– MORE DOWNWARD PUSH
– MAX POWER OUTPUT

CONSIDERATION
MORE SPEED – LESS TIME FOR FUEL

TIMING SHOULD GRADUALLY ADV WITH THE INC IN

VALVE TIMING
VALVE TIMIING
• AT WHAT INSTANT SHOULD A VALVE
OPEN?
• FOR HOW LONG SHOULD IT REMAIN
OPEN?
• MAX POWER OUTPUT CAN BE
ACHIEVED FROM AN ENGINE AT
DIFFERENT SPEEDS BY DIFFERENT
VALVE TIMINGS
CONSIDERATIONS
• PISTON SPEED IS NOT UNIFORM
DURING A COMPLETE REV
– DEAD AT TOP/ BOTTOM (30 – 40 DEG)
– FASTEST IN THE MIDDLE
• THE DEAD PDS ARE UTILIZED IN DEV

• OPENING INTAKE VALVE BEFORE
EXHUAST VALVE IS CLOSED
– MIXTURE IS SUCKED IN DUE TO VACCUM
GEN BY THE EXHUST GASES THUS INC
VOL EFFICENCY
– INTAKE MIXTURE COMING IN ALSO
SWEEPS THE EXHUAST GASES
– OVERLAP TAKES PLACE DURING ONE OF

SPEED, VALVE TIMING AND
POWER
• BY INC THE VALVE DURATION AND
OVERLAP ENGINE CAN BE MADE TO
PRODUCE MAX POWER AT HIGHER
SPEEDS
• HOWEVER THE SAME ENGINE WILL
RUN POOR AT LOW SPEED DUE TO
TENDENCY TO PULL THE EXHAUST
GASES BACK IN
