Motored test rig design and fabrication for small engine testing

Performance of a two-stroke engine is largely dependant on scavenging and trapping efficiency of a designed cylinder and port geometry. A motored test rig built specifically for high speed application is designed for 2-stroke spark ignition engine to allow further study and have better understanding...
