Best Answer

It is a little nozzle which is pointed towards the beneath of a piston in an internal combustion engine.

It is linked to the pressurised side of the oil system, so cool oil coming directly from the oilcooler will spray onto the piston and cooling it instead of just cooling around the cylinder.

This enables the engine to run a much more efficient combustion without the chance of melting a piston or overheating the engine which could lead to engine failure.

Reciprocating aircraft engine piston cooling oil nozzle?

I am unsure what you are asking but: The cooling oil nozzle is arraigned so the underside of the piston is sprayed with oil to cool the piston crown. This is done on high stress engines as the pistons could and would overheat leading to detonation and other problems leading to engine failure. This system is also used on Cumin's diesel engines as used in Dodge trucks, race cars, heavy trucks and so on.


What allows the piston more efficient cooling?

A larger piston skirt to cylinder wall contact raises piston cooling. With turbo motors, they have piston oilers, they spray oil on the underside of the pistons, cooling the piston /crown.


What makes oil mix in your coolant reservoir of a Volkswagen passat?

A broken piston ring can allow oil to get into your cooling system. A bad valve seal can also allow oil into the cooling system.


What is the function of piston rings in engine?

Isolate the combustion chamber above the piston from the crankcase below the piston, so that the pressure does not blow-by the piston into the crankcase. Also they ensure an even spreading of crankcase oil along the walls of the cylinder to prevent wear. They also provide improved thermal contact from the piston to the cylinder walls, which are cooled by the cooling system.


How to get oil out my piston?

If there is oil getting to the top of the piston and burning then you have a blown head gasket or the piston rings are worn or broken. Engine must be disassembled.


How do you change the oil cooling unit on the ird on a freelander?

Begin by training the oil from your engine. Remove the oil cooling unit hoses. Remove the oil cooling unit retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new oil cooling unit.


How do you avoid gasoline going in the oil?

The gasoline is avoided to go into the oil by few piston rings placed on the piston of the engine. Actually, the piston rings are made for this purpose only.
