Open/close to let in air/fuel mix and let out exhaust gases
Could be another name for the four stroke cylinder head, which contains the inlet / exhaust valves.
Sodium is a solid at room temperature and becomes a liquid at 97.5 degrees Celsius. Sodium cooled valves are exhaust valves in a cylinder head of an engine that open to release exhaust gasses that were formed due to combustion of fuel and air inside the cylinders and typically get very hot. The sodium cooled valves and exhaust valves filled with sodium inside, the sodium helps the valves be cooler than if they were just solid.
At very low suction pressure, the suction valves of reciprocating compressor will not work and there will be no gas in the cylinder during compression stroke, resulting some damage to the suction valves. If low suction pressure trip protection is not provided there can be some abnormal damage.

after the main safety valves are open
It is exactly what it says. The number of valves the engine has per cylinder. If you have 16 valves on an 8 cylinder engine, you have 2 valves per cylinder.
Valves per cylinder makes one's engine more powerful or less powerful. A engine that has 2 valves per cylinder is better that a engine that has only one.
16 valves
3 valves per cylinder ( according to the owners manual )
2 valve per cylinder Ex fiat 1.2l 8 valve
a pump consisting of a piston that moves back and forth or up and down in a cylinder. The cylinder is equipped with inlet (suction) and outlet( discharge) valves. On the intake stroke, the suction valves are opened, and fluid is drawn into the cylinder. On the discharge stroke, the suction valves close, the discharge valves open, and fluid is forced out of the cylinder.
No 4 cylinder car has 24 valves. Only 16. A V6 has 24 valves -reply- no your wrong.. the 2010 Mazda 3 is a 4 cylinder inline engine with 24 valves
( 2 valves ) per engine cylinder , total of ( 16 valves )
3 valves per engine cylinder , 24 valves total
Valves control the in-flow and out-flow of fuel, air and exhaust fumes in a combustion engine (known as intake valves and exhaust valves). A 4-cylinder engine with 16 valves will have 4 valves per cylinder, with two intake and two exhaust valves per cylinder. With experience it is easy to tell the sounds of the valves apart because each engine sounds different with different valves. Generally the less number of valves means a deeper/throatier sound from the cars and vice-versa
Depends on engine size. Typically two valves per cylinder. One intake and one exhaust. Some higher performance applications can have four valves per cylinder.
the valves need readjusting
