Geometrical Nomenclature for Valves The instantaneous valve flow area depends on valve lift and the geometrical details of the valve head, seat and stem. There are three separate stages to the flow area development as valve lift increases.
Geometrical Shape of Intake Flow Area For lower valve lift the minimum area is the valve curtain area. For larger lifts the minimum area is the valve seat area.
