The internal-combustion engine: an introduction -- Engine maps, customers, and markets -- Engine validation and durability -- Engine development process -- Determining displacement -- Engine configuration and balance -- Cylinder block and head materials and manufacturing -- Block layout and design decisions -- Cylinder head layout design -- Block and head development -- Engine bearing design -- Engine lubrication -- Engine cooling -- Gaskets and seals -- Pistons and rings -- Crankshafts and connecting rods -- Camshafts and the valve train.
This book provides an introduction to the design and mechanical development of reciprocating piston engines for vehicular applications. Beginning from the determination of required displacement, coverage moves into engine configuration and architecture. Critical layout dimensions and design trade-offs are then presented. Coverage continues with material and casting process selection for the cylinder block and heads. Each major engine component and sub-system is then taken up in turn.
