NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930090861: Effect of intake pipe on the volumetric efficiency of an internal combustion engine

Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)

Year: 1929

The writer discusses the phenomena of expansion and compression which alternately take place in the cylinders of four-stroke engines during the induction process at a high mean piston speed due to the inertia and elasticity of the mixture in the intake pipe. The present paper is intended to demonstrate theoretically the existence of a most favorable pipe length for charging.
