opens at bottom dead centre and closes at top dead centre
opens at 50° after bottom dead centre and closes at 15° before top dead centre
may open and close anywhere

How the opening and closing of an imelt valve and exhaust valve depend on the angle? Give reason with proof.

Cam profile is 60 degree so if it begins to open 50deg before BDC; it should travel not more than 120deg. i.e exhaust valve should close at 110 deg before TDC.

This is to increase volumetric efficiency.

But it will cause valve overlap, right?

Can anyone explain about this valve timing diagram?

Mohammad Safiq said:   6 years ago
In the Valve timing diagram of the four-stroke engine the last stroke is the exhaust so for the modified valve timing diagram the Valve opens before BDC.

The effect of opening the exhaust valve before the piston reaches the BDC results in an overall gain in output. The effect of closing the exhaust valve after TDC is the inertia of the exhaust gases tends to scavenge the cylinder by carrying the maximum amount of gas left in the clearance volume. This will result in increased volumetric efficiency.
