A comparison of wear behaviour of heat-resistant steel engine valves
Compared to the traditional valves made from heat-resistant steel (X60, X85), the TiAl valves have 50% lower mass, leading to a decrease in the impact seating forces during the engine operation. With the reduction of the inertia of engine valve movement, the dynamic characteristics of the engine valve train system can be optimized.
