Notes on valve-spring design

$15.00

Several considerations applying to valve spring design are discussed, with emphasis on those factors relating to fatigue failures. Design factors affecting valve spring stress are discussed in detail. Electric-furnace chromium-vanadium steel, heat treated after winding, is concluded to be best for valve springs.
