In aircraft reciprocating engine, if valve spring surge happen?1. Why happen?2. Affect to engine?3. Result?4. Feeling?
Its in a car engine but the fault is near the same. The good news is that in aircraft there are mostly multi-spring valve springs to help prevent the resonance problem that can happen with a single spring. (If one goes resonant, the other one doesn't.) I think what that means is that if you have valve spring surges in an aircraft engine, you probably have a broken spring or weak on the assembly. (just a guess but if they don't go resonant at the same time then how would you get the surge?) The affect, not good. Result - rough at a certain RPM or range of RPM even temp. related Feeling - rough
