Single-scroll systems have been in use for a long time, and for good reason. These systems are generally compact, inexpensive and extremely durable under the high heat they're exposed to. So from a ...

ABSTRACT Exhaust manifold design is one of the more challenging tasks for the engine engineer due to the harsh thermal and severe vibration environment. Extremely high exhaust gas temperatures and ...

If you plan to upgrade your car on a budget, most car enthusiasts often start with the engine's air intake system and a performance exhaust. Add-ons like a cold air intake or a straight pipe will let ...

For Part I, covering the new combustion system, direct injection, and active fuel management: click here. For Part III, covering the block, crankshaft and lubrication systems: click here. Continuing ...

Periodically, you've been exposed to some notions in this column that were linked to an engine's individual cylinder tuning or optimization. In some instances, we've hinted about certain ideas while ...

We often try our best to get the most performance possible from our engines. In the search for more power, we often remove exhaust manifolds and swap them out for a set of headers. Available in ...

Thanks to groundbreaking concepts such as generative design and topology optimization software, additive manufacturing is liberating design engineers in ways that were unfathomable even a decade ago.

Researchers at Purdue University's College of Engineering are conducting tests on a patented Tesla valve-inspired injection manifold design to improve the efficiency of rotating detonation engines ...
