Abstract

A variable valve timing (VVT) can improve fuel 
efficiency, reduce CO2 emission and increase torque output. To 
achieve VVT in internal combustion engine, new devices such as 
mechanical, hydraulic, motor-driven and electromagnetic 
actuator have been developed in past years to replace the 
conventional camshaft valve train system used currently. 
Among these, the electromagnetic actuator using solenoids is 
the most advance system to provide the most flexibility to valve 
timing, but it has critical drawback of high power consumption. 
This paper presents a novel design of Hybrid Magnet Engine 
Valve Actuator (HMEVA) using shorted turn. A shorted turn is 
placed into existing design in order to reduce the inductance of 
coil and improve the initial response. Dynamic finite element 
analysis using commercial electromagnetic solver “MAXWEL” 
is performed to simulate the improvement of dynamic 
characteristic of model
