    Actual Valve Timing Diagram Theoretical/Ideal Valve Timing Diagram

    TDC

    TDC = Top Dead Centre


    BDC = Bottom Dead Centre
    EVC = Exhaust Valve Closed
    EVO = Exhaust Valve Opened
    IVC = Intake Valve Closed
    IVO = Intake Valve Opened
    IGA = Ignition Advanced
    Suction Stroke
    From the diagram, we can see that Intake Valve Opened before the piston reaches to TDC. But Why?
    - For the inertia effect on the intake valve, it requires little more time to be fully opened. So, to make the
    valve fully opened during intake, the intake valve opening is advanced before reaching to TDC.

    From the diagram, we can see that Intake Valve is closed lately after reaching to BDC. But Why?
    - To input sufficient amount of charge to the cylinder, the intake valve is kept opened even after the BDC
    is reached. By doing this, the cylinder becomes full with charge sufficiently. Otherwise less amount of
    charge will enter in the cylinder whose pressure may become less than the atmospheric pressure, which
    may cause poor performance.
    Compression Stroke
    From the diagram, we can see that during the compression stroke the ignition is advanced before
    reaching the piston to TDC. But Why?
    - Because there is a time lag between spark and actual combustion. After sparking, chemical reaction
    occurs in the atomic molecule, which requires some amount of time to perform combustion. This is why
    the ignition is advances, so that the combustion can start at the right time during piston reaches to TDC.
    Expansion Stroke
    From the diagram, we can see that during the expansion stroke the exhaust vale is opened before
    reaching the piston to BDC. But Why?
    - Because for removing burnt gas from the cylinder the exhaust valve is opened before reaching the
    piston to BDC. This system associates to remove burnt gas during expansion stroke, also helps to enter
    fresh charges.
    Exhaust Stroke
    From the diagram, we can see that during the exhaust stroke the exhaust vale is opened for long time. It
    was opened even after the piston reaches to the TDC. But Why?
    - Because in such situation the intake valve is also remain opened. Which means the fresh charge
    entered in the cylinder and associates to remove burnt gases. As a result more fresh charge can enter
    into the cylinder and reduces engine knock. In this case both the intake valve and exhaust valve remain
    opened, for this reason such phenomena is also known as ‘Valve overlapping’.
