poppetventielen
Poppetventielen, also known as poppet valves, are a type of valve used in many mechanical systems, most notably in internal combustion engines. Their primary function is to control the flow of fluid or gas into and out of a chamber. A poppet valve consists of a disc-shaped head and a stem. The head is designed to seat tightly against a valve seat, which is a precisely machined opening. When the valve is closed, the head creates a seal, preventing any passage. When the valve opens, the stem moves, lifting the head away from the seat and allowing fluid or gas to flow through the opening.
The operation of poppet valves is typically actuated by a camshaft, which is driven by the engine's
Poppet valves are favored for their sealing ability and durability. They are capable of withstanding high pressures
