Valve Train Friction

Valve Train Friction is a mechanical energy loss phenomenon within internal combustion engines, specifically arising from the relative motion and contact forces between components of the valve actuation system, including camshaft, followers, pushrods, rocker arms, and valves, thereby distinguishing it from other engine friction sources by its exclusive dependence on valve timing and actuation dynamics.
