Cool Engine Screensaver

[Bean0]

From the good people at Deutz...

It shows a (rotating) 3 dimensional DOHC 4 cylinder engine being completely assembled from a bare casting, even showing all the bolts tightening. When the assembly is complete, it shows the working engine (in slow motion) but with a transparent block, it zooms in to show an individual cylinder running through all 4 strokes.

Enjoy

It might be away of learning somthing new


Edit: That is so cool

Mines giving me an error.. "Library not registered"

 

[Kamerad]

Thats great

 

[Scottland]

Ok, but the quality is a little off as it's a video rather than rendered.

There is a very cool rendered thing they show on the Disc. channel, which is basically an engine running, in a CAD-esque render. That would look much cooler IMO

 

[andi]

Brilliant, very cool. Thanks very much

 

[Clarkey]

crashed my explorer, looks like a poor quality vid anyway. No loss I know how an engine turns anyway

 

[JayMax]

Crashes for me too
Some quartz.dll directx affair, but I don't know how to fix it.

No they will still either have 1 intake/exhaust or 2 intake/exhaust valves.

Take for example out old jeep had a V6 but only had 12 valves (one intake, one exhaust).

But my mates corse has a 3 cylinder engine with 12 valves (2 intake, 2 exhaust)

what about the 20 valve 4 cylinder VW engines, and most yank v8's are 24 valve afaik

Then possibly i am wrong, ill wait for someone more knowledgable to take over

 

[Clarkey]

They will run 3 intake and 2 exhaust, or vice versa.

Oh, and most yank pushrod V8's are 16v (ie. 2 per cyl.)

How did I originally miss this thread?

Anyways, can someone that tried the original tell me if this is the same one? (I'm on a crappy 128/64K DSL line and am still d/l'ing the one I posted of 43.6MB, so not too willing to try doing it twice. LOL)

As to the Yank 24V V-8's, it's only the Ford Northstar V-8 that has 32V. My Chevy 305 only has 16. Don't quote me on it, but I believe even the Corvette engine is only 16V.
