sleeve valve

The company began to experience difficulties with its sleeve valve engines in 1913.

The design was remarkably quiet, and the sleeve valves needed little attention.

A Knight sleeve valve powered model was added to the range in 1912 and 1913.

The junk head was only widely used with sleeve valve engines.

A sleeve valve takes the form of one or more machined sleeves.

Because of this a single sleeve valve can replace several standard valves used in series.

Sleeve valve are generally more expensive than other types of control valves.

Sleeve valves can control flow and/or pressure over the entire stroke of the valve.

It was powered by a six cylinder Knight sleeve valve engine.

The angle pattern sleeve valve is installed at a 90 bend in place of an elbow.

Sleeve valves are adaptive to system or consumer requirements.

The 23/70 shared the same basic layout as the 17/50 but was fitted with a straight-8 sleeve valve engine.

Six-cylinder sleeve valve engine, you know there was only six of these ever made."

It was the first production sleeve valve aero engine.

Sleeve valves can operate for long periods of time over a high differential pressure across the valve.

CC1's lack of sleeve valves has already been mentioned.

The final range consisted of three four-cylinder models and a Knight sleeve valve six.

From its inception to early 1923, it used the sleeve valve four-cylinder Knight engine.

A number of disadvantages plague the single sleeve valve:

In 1927, Harry Ricardo published a study on the concept of the sleeve valve engine.

Ricardo's work on the sleeve valve affected the development of British aircraft engines in the thirties and during the war.

This contrasts with previous designs which made use of side valves and sleeve valves.

This difficulty was one of the reasons that led to Fedden's work on the sleeve valve.

Post-1918 only sleeve valve engines were used.

The sleeve valve is designed to meet the requirements and allow for a wide range of variability of function.
