    VTEC (variable valve timing and electronic lift control) is a system developed by Honda that improves engine performance and efficiency. It uses two cam profiles and electronically selects between them based on engine RPM. At high RPM it engages a profile with more lift and duration for more power, and at low RPM it uses a more efficient profile. This allows for both strong performance and low fuel consumption. The system works by connecting an additional rocker arm and valve at high RPM to open both valves further via a different cam lobe shape.

    FIRST SEMINAR PRESENTATION


    PRESENTED BY:

    M.TECH 1ST Yr. (AUTOMOBILE ENGINEERING)
    ROLL NO.:- 173701
    INTRODUCTION

    VTEC (variable valve timing and electronic control lift) system developed
    by honda.
    It was invented by honda engineer ikuo kajitani.
    It improves the volumetric efficiency of 4 stroke diesel engine.
    High performance at high RPM and low fuel consumption at low RPM.
    VTEC system uses two cam profile and
    electronically select between them
    BASIC THEORY

    After multivalve technology became standard in engine design


    VVT (variable valve timing) next step to enhance engine power and
    torque
    Valve activate the breathing of engine
    Shape of cam can control the timing of breathing
    At high speed fresh air to be fast enough to enter in combustion
    chamber while exhaust has to move out of engine, max combustion can
    take place
    So the solution was open inlet valve earlier and close exhaust valve
    later in other words overlapping between intake period and exhaust
    period
    FUNCTIONS

    VTEC improves the performance of engine

    It improves the volumetric efficiency of the engine by providing excess


    amount of air fuel in to engine at high speed.

    By regulating valve opening to match engine speed, theVTEC engine adjusts


    its characteristics to realize both superior power and low fuel consumption
    Cleaner emission.

    Driving comfort.
    WORKING

    The principle of VTEC is almost simple, elegant and mechanical.


    VTEC allows an engine to alternate between two different camshaft
    profiles.
    In twin-cam configurations, each camshaft features three lobes per
    cylinder--its two primary lobes and secondary lobe.
    longer-duration secondary lobe--which correspond to three respective
    rocker arms
    Under normal conditions, the center rocker arm, which is paired to the
    camshaft's larger, center VTEC lobe, does little more than ride on what
    Honda calls its Lost Motion Assembly
    At once the VTEC engauge, though. At a predetermined engine speed
    based upon the ECU, a 12V signal is sent to the engine's VTEC solenoid,
    which activates the process.
    oil pressure forces a series of pins into place, engaging the center rocker
    arm, which reacts against the camshafts' larger, center lobes, forcing
    both valves to operate under the VTEC lobe's higher-lift, longer-duration
    profile.
    This allow more fuel air mixture enters in to the combustion chamber
    and more power develop.
    As the speed reduces up to some extent the ECU cut the signal and
    VTEC disengage.
    TYPES OF VTEC ENGINE

    DOHC VTEC (double overhead camshaft system)

    SOHC VTEC (single overhead cam shaft system)

    3 stage VTEC system

    i-VTEC System
    VTECH IN MOTORCYCLE

    First introduced in 2003 in bikes.

    One Intake valve remain closed until the threshold was reached at 7000
    rpm.

    Second valve open by actuated pin (oil operated ).

    Use a single camshaft to operate the two valve.


    ADVANTAGES

    Better fuel efficiency.

    High torque with relevant high power.

    Low emission

    Strong performance
    DISADVANTAGES

    Higher cost of engine.

    More complex mechanism.

    Wear and tear problems.

    Decreased engine life.
