A Study on Engine Valve Train and Its Effect on Cam Shaft

Abstract

Our research work deals with the study of vibrations in camshaft due to valve spring load and finding its frequencies at high speed. The primary function of the camshaft is the smooth opening and closing of valves, in actual working conditions of an engine there are some torque fluctuations experienced by the camshafts at high engine speeds. The results in the oscillations may adversely affect the various engine parts. Here we considering its affects on the valve spring, these oscillations result in variation in the force transmitted to the valve and thus valve spring. Valve spring motion in itself is a responsible factor for ultimate spring failure due to surging. Considering the above factors we will base our work on the dynamic behaviour of camshafts at high speeds under the action of variable loads while in motion.
