Abstract
For the development of a high efficiency gasoline engine, the optimization of the intake port shape for a five-valve engine has been studied. Intake multivalve cylinder heads were manufactured by using a three-dimensional computer-assisted design program, and steady state flow experiments and flow visualization experiments have been performed with these cylinder heads. The five-valve engines, which have larger valve opening areas, have larger intake flowrates and higher tumble ratios than the four-valve engines. The effects of intake port design parameters of a five-valve engine on the intake flowrate and tumble were studied, and the design guidelines for the five-valve engines were established.
