To Determine the Effect of Dimpled Poppet Valve on the Flow in Engine Cylinder by Port Flow Simulation

Intake system is one of the crucial sub-systems in engine, the geometrical configuration of the inlet ports and the valves and their opening schedule creates organized motions in the cylinder, known as swirl (about the cylinder axis) and tumble (orthogonal to the cylinder axis) which help in proper...
