 Glossary Of Technical Terms
Maximum valve lift is the greatest height the valve head moves off of the valve seat; it is the lift of the cam (lobe height minus base-circle diameter) multiplied by the rockerarm ratio.
If maximum valve lift is increased but the duration (crankshaft degrees) that the valve is held off of the valve seat is kept the same, then rate at which the valve opens must increase (same time to reach a higher lift).
Compression Pressure: The pressure created in the cylinder when the piston moves toward top dead center (TDC) after the intake valve closes, trapping the induced charge (normally a fuel/air mixture) within the cylinder.

 Information Notice No. 88-68: SETPOINT TESTING OF PRESSURIZER SAFETY VALVES WITH FILLED LOOP SEALS USING HYDRAULIC ASSIST DEVICES
Lift points were 2435 and 2384 psig for valve 2-68-563, 2430 and 2432 psig for 2-68-564, and 2390 psig for 2-68-565.
The lifting force required to open the valve was measured by a load cell and recorded on a strip chart to provide data necessary to calculate the valve setpoint.
The valve lifts were performed using water heated to 120øF and pressurized by nitrogen.

 Greg Hartwell - American Motorcycles
Net valve lift Now this is what the motor actually sees when all things are brought in to play things like, lash (or hyd lifter compression) valve train deflection, rocker arm ratio and what ever else may effect the valve train.
For example if the number is.495 it means the cam will lift the LIFTER.495 because the rocker arms don't have a 1:1 ratio this is not the amount that the valve lifts.
Cam shift lift This is the number every one throws around when talking cam.its the number that the cam lifts the lifter.

 Adjustable valve system for a multi-valve internal combustion engine - US Patent 5445117
The valve system defined in claim 18 wherein said rocker arms are disposed asymmetrically relative to said first and second valves whereby axially shifting said camshaft from a first position to a second position increases the lift of said first and second valves, and decreases the difference in lift between said first and second valves.
The valve system defined in claim 18 wherein said rocker arms are disposed asymmetrically relative to said first and second valves whereby axial shifting of said camshaft adjusts the lift of said first valve a first amount and adjusts the lift of said second valve a second amount smaller than said first amount.
One method of accomplishing low impact realignment of the rocker and valve is for the axial height of the cam lobe to contribute the same amount to lifting the valve as the cam axial slope contributes to closing the valve through the full rotation of the cam at a first cam shaft axial position.

 New Tech - Variable valve timing
In broad terms, big valves and extreme high-lift camshafts with substantial overlap of inlet and exhaust valves, while essential for top-end power, are not particularly compatible with a dawdle to the supermarket.
Each pair of valves is opened by the third lobe, which has higher lift and opens the valves for longer.
Concepts for both hydraulic and electromagnetic valve control may have broken out like a rash lately, but Honda& VTEC (variable valve timing and lift electronic control) made its production debut in 1989 billed as the first system controlling both valve lift and timing.

 Halcyon: Closed Circuit Lift Bags
Designed to be filled by a diver's second stage regulator, the SCC 60 combines the ease of inflation of a traditional bell-bottomed lift bag with an over-pressure release valve to dial in a precise amount of lift and to prevent damage caused by over-inflation at depth.
Halcyon's lift bags can be inflated through a low pressure inflator hose and feature a one-way valve to ensure that the bag will maintain lift all the way to the surface.
To prevent an out-of-control lift, the diver must first try to match the lift capacity of the bag to the weight of the object for example, use a 100 pound bag on a 100 pound anchor, or as close as possible.

 Dynamic CR
Compression of the air/fuel mixture cannot start while the intake valve is open.
Determining what the compression ratio is after the intake valve closes provides valuable information about how the engine will perform with a particular cam and octane.
Solid cams are usually speced at an abitrary lift value (often.015" or.020") determined by the designer to be a good approximation of the cam's profile.

 VALVETRAINS: Better Materials & Design, Larry Carley, Automotive Rebuilder, November 1997
Honda's "Variable Valve Timing and Electronic Lift Control System" (VTEC) on the Accura NSX 3.0L DOHC V6 is unique in that it has extra lobes on the cam and extra rocker arms that come into play at higher rpm to increase valve lift and duration.
Overhead cam multivalve engines are changing the way engines are rebuilt, but they'll likely never entirely replace pushrod engines because of the tradeoffs we have described.
Installed valve height affects the geometry of the valvetrain, so the tips of the valve stems should be ground to maintain the proper height when the valves and seats are refaced.

 Compressor bypass valve (CBV) / Blow off valve (BOV)
relief valve is forced firmly closed under pressure conditions (turbo on boost), until such time as a lower pressure condition occurs with throttle lift-off or between gear changes.
When on-boost and changing gear (throttle lift-off), a sudden lower pressure condition is created in the manifold and the valve is pulled open again, directing pressurised air back to the turbo inlet.
Both valves are plastic moulded, look the same, and have exactly the same inside and outside diameters.

 Engine & fuel engineering - Hi-lift flow vs Mid-lift flow
I profiled a cam which has.800" net lift thru its entire lift curve to see how long the valve was at what point, the piston velocity, and the flow at that lift.
I have found the biggest single factor affecting low, mid and high lift flow is the valve seat angle.
In some racing classes where the cam may be lift restricted there is some gain to optimizing low lift flow.

 CanadianDriver: Auto Tech - Honda's VTEC engine technology
By using the engine computer to vary both valve timing and valve lift, the engine's volumetric efficiency and performance are increased.
These cam lobes give a relatively short valve lift and duration (length of time the valve is open) to ensure good cylinder filling at low engine speeds.
By advancing the camshaft position in relation to the crankshaft position, low speed performance is enhanced because the valves are closed sooner and cylinder pressures are higher at low rpm.

 Which Variable Valve Timing is better ? ? - Honda-Acura.net
The way I remember I tell the difference between variable cam timing and varible valve timing, is that vvt changes the actual lift and duration of the valves (as can be seen by the fatter lobes on a vtec cam).
Instead the valves are pneumatically (or maybe hydraulically) actuated and their lift, duration and timing is all computer controlled.
Of those 3 VVt-i is probably the best because the variation is done in the head, not in the cam as is the case with VTEC and MIVEC reducding paracidic loss to wight in the valve train.

 BOV - Blow Off Valve -
A CBV (compressor bypass valve) style, are open most of the time under engine vacuum (idle, cruise, throttle lift-off), but close firmly under positive (boost) pressure.
With the valve closed under boost pressure, a sudden throttle lift-off between gear changes creates an instant *vacuum inside the inlet manifold which pulls the valve open, momentarily venting boost pressure.

 Patent 4703734: Multi-valve internal combustion engine
As the butterfly valve 8 is closed the induction occurs as if the high speed inlet valve 7 were disabled and thus the induction characteristics are therefore controlled exclusively by the lift timing of inlet valve 2.
Viz., as the butterfly valve in the cae of of a 1,800 cc engine (merely by way of example) has a surface area of from 6 to 8 cm.sup.2, the valve tends to be subject to a sudden force of the order of 3 to 4 Kg.
The closure timing of the inlet valves 2, 7 with the first embodiment is such that both valves close after BDC of the compression phase and that the slow speed inlet valve 1 closes prior the high speed one (7).

The Dual Plate Check Valve is an all purpose non return valve that is much stronger, lighter in weight and smaller in size compared to a conventional swing check valve or lift check valve.
The two plates in Dual Plate Check Valve are hinged in the center vertically for horizontal installations, altogether eliminating the effect of the gravity.
Dual Plate Check Valve has much lower pressure drop due to lower force.The best analogy between a swing check valve and Dual plate Check Valve would be a door hinged from the top and a door hinged on its side with an appropriate door closure.

 World Intellectual Property Organization
The lower part of the mandrel 4 comprises a bellow 17 in which a pressurized gas, such as nitrogen, is present, and which serves to regulate the opening of the check valve 11 such that a minimum pressure on the gas side is maintained and reverse flow from the tubing 1 is prevented.
These expanding gas (Taylor) bubbles may bypass the oil so that an unstable flow regime is created and in extreme cases mainly lift- gas is produced and hardly any oil.
The present invention aims to alleviate this drawback of the conventional lift-gas injection techniques by providing a gas lift technique wherein the risk of lift- gas rapidly slipping through the produced crude oil is reduced.
