| Özet |
| There are many factors that affect the operation of vehicleengines. Not working regularly of an engine causes a decrease in theperformance; on the other hand, an increase in the fuel consumption, thevibration and the HC emission. These adverse impacts reduce vehicle comfort andincrease travel costs, and also damage nature much more. Vehicles are normallydesigned in such a way that they provide optimum operating parameters. However,as the vehicle is used, these parameters negatively change. In this study, ithas been investigated that the effects of spark plug gap on vibration, noiseand HC emission in a gasoline engine. It is a fact that, the spark plug isabraded in a certain amount because it is continuously ignited. This abrasionincreases the distance between the center electrode and the electrode head, andchanges the quality of the composed spark. In experiments, it has been detectedthat, when the spark plug clearance and the number of revolutions areincreased, the vibration and noise increase proportionally; on the other hand,the exhaust emission (HC) value increases at 0,7 mm, 0,8 mm and 1,0 mm plug gapand decreases at 0,9 mm plug gap. As a result, setting the standard spark pluggap in the gasoline engines to 0,9 mm instead of 0,7 mm can provide asignificant reduction in exhaust emissions; thus, an improvement in performancecan be achieved. |
