    The document describes how to draw the actual valve timing diagram of a four-stroke single-cylinder compression ignition (CI) engine. Key steps include: 1) Marking top dead center (TDC) and bottom dead center (BDC) on the flywheel and measuring its circumference. 2) Slowly rotating the flywheel to mark the points where the inlet and exhaust valves open and close with respect to the fixed point. 3) Measuring the distances of valve opening and closing from TDC and BDC. 4) Calculating the valve opening angles using the measured distances and flywheel circumference to complete the valve timing diagram.

    VALVE TIMING DIAGRAM ON SECTIONAL MODEL OF 4-STROKE SINGLE

    CYLINDER CI ENGINE

    Objective: To draw the actual valve timing diagram of a four-stroke single-cylinder


    CI engine.
    Apparatus required:
     Measuring tape,
     Sectional four-stroke single-cylinder CI engine test rig
    Theory:
    In a four-stroke CI engine, the thermodynamic cycle of operations is completed in
    two revolutions of the crankshaft or four strokes of the piston. During the four
    strokes, there are five events to be completed, viz., suction, compression,
    combustion, expansion and exhaust.
    The suction stroke starts when the piston is at TDC and about to move downwards.
    The inlet valve is open at this time and the exhaust valve is closed. Due to the
    suction created by the motion of the piston towards the BDC, the air is drawn into
    the cylinder. When the piston reaches the BDC the suction stroke ends and the
    inlet valve closes. The air taken into the cylinder during the suction stroke is
    compressed by the return stroke of the piston. During this stroke, both inlet and
    exhaust valves are in a closed position. The air is now compressed to the clearance
    volume. At the end of the compression stroke, a metered quantity of fuel (diesel) is
    injected into the hot compressed air in fine sprays by the fuel injector and it starts
    burning. During the burning process, the chemical energy of the fuel is converted
    into heat energy. The high pressure of the burnt gases forces the piston towards
    the BDC. Both the valves are in a closed position. Of the four strokes only during
    this stroke, power is produced. Both pressure and temperature decrease during
    expansion. At the end of the expansion stroke, the exhaust valve opens and the
    inlet valve remains closed. The pressure falls to atmospheric level as a part of the
    burnt gases escape. The piston starts moving from BDC to TDC and sweeps the
    burnt gases out from the cylinder. The exhaust valve closes when the piston
    reaches TDC.
    Procedure:
    1. TDC & BDC are identified and marked on the flywheel with respect to one fixed
    point in the engine.
    2. The circumference of the flywheel is measured using a measuring scale or
    measuring tape.
    3. By slowly rotating the flywheel in the direction of rotation, the opening of the
    inlet valve is marked on the flywheel w.r.t. fixed point when the push rod of the
    inlet valve starts to move.
    4. Mark a point on the flywheel where the inlet valve is completely closed.
    5. In the same way, mark the points where the exhaust valve open and close.
    6. The distance of opening of inlet valve and closing of exhaust valve from TDC and
    closing of inlet valve and opening of the exhaust valve from BDC is measured
    using thread and scale.
    7. The angles of opening and closing of inlet and exhaust valves are calculated
    w.r.t. TDC and BDC.
    Observations:
    S. No Valve position Distance from nearest Valve opening period
    dead centre in “cm” in “Degree”
    1 IVO (Inlet Valve Open)
    2 IVC (Inlet Valve Close)
    3 EVO (Exhaust Valve Open)
    4 EVC (Exhaust Valve Close)

    Calculations:
    1. Circumference of the flywheel = πD
    D = Diameter of the flywheel in cm
    2. Angle ‘θ’ in degrees,
    S∗360
    θ=
    πD
    S = Arc Length in cm

    Results:
    Thus, the valve timing diagram for the given four-stroke single-cylinder CI engine is
    found and is drawn
    1. Inlet Valve opens at =
    2. Inlet Valve closes at =
    3. Exhaust valve open at =
    4. Exhaust valve closes at =
