Direct
Injection 2-Stroke Cylinder Head Design For Increased Efficiency
The purpose of this project is to
develop and test a direct injection cylinder head for a 2-stroke snowmobile
engine.
Team
Over-Bored is sponsored by NIATT the National Institute of Advanced Transportation
Technology and is mentored by Peter Britanyak. The design team consists of
three seniors from the University of Idaho: Dylan Dixon (Mechanical
Engineering,), Jared Denton (Mechanical Engineering), and Austin Welch
(Mechanical Engineering). Our Project goal is to develop a direct injection
2-stroke cylinder head that adapts a E-Tec fuel injection system to a Rotax 800
cc engine. This design is important for improving fuel efficiencies of 2-stroke
Snowmobiles to meet the 2012 emission standards set forth by EPA for recreational
vehicles.
