Slotted spark plugs

Another way to facilitate the access of the mixture to the spark was proposed by Japanese constructors. They introduced a groove in one of the electrodes. At NGK, this V-shaped groove is made on the face of the center electrode. Whereas in …

Spark plugs without side electrode

Czech constructors from the Brisk company assumed the assumption, that the ground electrode in a conventional spark plug limits the spread of the flame front, creating a "shadow zone". An original structure called Premium was created, which is characterized by the absence of a side electrode. …

Turbocharged engine intake system

One of the more serious disadvantages of a turbocharged engine is its low dynamics in transitional states.
The possibility of a sudden increase in load here is limited by the inertia of the turbocharger rotor. The situation can be significantly improved by the use of a simple compressor bypass system at part load of the engine.
W …

Lateral positioning of the engine in a delivery vehicle

The "invasion" of the front drive with a transversely positioned engine, observed over the last several years, led to, that a passenger car with such a drive system is currently the dominant solution. The main advantage of this solution is the possibility of obtaining a large usable space in the vehicle. It enables …
