  1. exhaust valve

    A poppet valve (also called mushroom valve) is a valve typically used to control the timing and quantity of gas or vapor flow into an engine. It consists of a hole or open-ended chamber, usually round or oval in cross-section, and a plug, usually a disk shape on the end of a shaft known as a valve stem. The working end of this plug, the valve face, is typically ground at a 45° bevel to seal against a corresponding valve seat ground into the rim of the chamber being sealed. The shaft travels through a valve guide to maintain its alignment. A pressure differential on either side of the valve can assist or impair its performance. In exhaust applications higher pressure against the valve helps to seal it, and in intake applications lower pressure helps open it. The poppet valve was invented in 1833 by American E.A.G. Young of the Newcastle and Frenchtown Railroad. Young had patented his idea, but the Patent Office fire of 1836 destroyed all records of it.

  1. exhaust valve

    An exhaust valve is a mechanical component in an internal combustion engine that allows waste gases to exit from an individual cylinder. It is opened and closed by the movement of the camshaft, allowing burned and spent combustion gases to be expelled from the combustion chamber into the exhaust system. This process is crucial for maintaining the efficiency and performance of the engine.
