Abstract: This paper investigates the effect of replacing
crankshaft with cam on the indicated torque during compression and
power strokes in internal combustion engines. A Cycloidal cam
profile was used in Revetec engine to calculate and compare the
torque to a conventional engine, using a computational method.
Firstly, the cylinder pressure was calculated using Ferguson equation,
and then the torque calculated depending on cylinder pressure values
in every crank angle. the results showed that by using Cycloidal cam
profile in Revetec engine the torque can increased by 14% compared
with conventional engines, which means an increase in engine
efficiency.
