The exhaust valve of the BMW N63 engine is located near the engine intake pipe, and you can find it by opening the engine hood. Almost all vehicle engines are equipped with an exhaust valve, which is a component of the crankcase ventilation system. Introduction to the exhaust valve: The exhaust valve, also known as the oil separator or pressure control valve, is installed between the compressor outlet and the condenser inlet. It improves the heat transfer effect in the condenser and evaporator through separation. Working principle of the exhaust valve: The high-pressure gas from the compressor enters the exhaust valve and then the guide vane of the exhaust valve, flowing in a spiral pattern along the guide vane. The lubricating oil is separated from the working gas by centrifugal force and gravity, flowing down along the inner wall of the cylinder. The working gas is discharged from the exhaust valve through the central pipe via the porous baffle. The separated lubricating oil accumulates at the bottom of the oil separator and can be discharged periodically or automatically returned to the compressor's crankcase using a float valve.
