Engine Technology – Improving Cylinder Head Performance

by Andrew Greaney

Most engine technology books are difficult to read, use jargon and waffle on subjects that are not useful to the reader. This book aims to give the reader knowledge around the methods to make a cylinder head achieve more airflow through the inlet port to increase volumetric efficiency, thus engine power and performance. Giving the reader information behind the methods used, results and various engine calculations, including thermodynamic mathematic questions, with workings and answers. These are both applied and theoretical advanced engine calculations, establishing the relevance to operating conditions and design characteristics. A SuperFlow test bench is used to record the results of the cylinder head porting. Containing useful references for more background reading if desired, this book is your one stop shop to covering cylinder head porting to increase engine performance!
