Optimization of Friction Welding Process Parameters for 42Cr9Si2 Hollow Head and Sodium Filled Engine Valve and Valve Performance Evaluation

Due to their design, hollow cavity and filled sodium, hollow head and sodium filled engine valves (HHSVs) have superior performance to traditional solid valves in terms of mass and temperature reduction. This paper presents a new manufacturing method for 42Cr9Si2 steel hollow head and sodium filled...
