Swirl-Tumble-Generator "DTE"
Tumble position of the DTE | Swirl position of the DTE |
Tumble position of the DTE | DTE for a four cylinder 16 valve engine |
Design of the DTE
The DTE....
- is a pivoted flap, which is positioned in the inlet port of the cylinder head directly in front of the inlet valve
- enables with its flap to close ore reduce fully variable the flow section of the inlet port
- pivoted flap is independendly full variable rotatable around the axis of the inlet port
Mode of operation
The DTE....
- controls by the position of its flap the gas flow in the inlet port into preferred sections of the open valve gap
- generates by those asymmetrical flow distortion in the valve gap efficient gas flow characteristics inside the cylinder
- supports and increases desired flow characteristics like Swirl on Diesel engines and Tumble for gasoline engines
- flap position enables to control fully variable the velocity of the gas flow as well as the flow direction as favored for each engine speed an load
