Abstract

This paper deals with the numerical analysis of 3d model which has inlet port diameter 46mm, valve diameter 43mm and the length and diameter of the cylinder is 562mm and 93.65mm respectively which is developed to study the effect of valve lift on the flow of fluid inside the cylinder. For different valve lifts velocity will change inside the cylinder. Results of CFD simulation indicated that valve lift affects velocity flow field inside the cylinder. It also proved that CFD is a convenient tool for designing and optimizing the flow field in the engine.
