Effect of Cam Profile On Cylinder Pressure In Revetec Engine

Revetec engine is a new engine arrangement used to increase engine’s efficiency by replacing the crankshaft and the connecting rod used in conventional engines by cams to control the piston movement. Cam profile contributes great effect in combustion characteristics, so it is very important to find...
