変換角拡大

Japanese to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks engines
フリクション低減やC-VTC変換角拡大などのため新規部品を投入したが、排気システムなどで原価低減したのでほとんど変わりません。

Improvements made to an engine to improve fuel efficiency. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ben

Vary the phasing angle

Cam phasing VVT varies valve timing by shifting the phase angle of the camshaft. At high engine speeds, the inlet camshaft phasing can be rotated in advance to enable earlier intake, increasing the amount of valve overlap. This is controlled by the engine management system, and actuated by hydraulic valve gears.

Phasing change is either continuous or fixed. Continuous systems normally vary the phasing angle between 0 and 40 or more degrees according to engine load and speed requirements. Fixed phasing systems alter phasing by a specific angular value at a specific speed and load condition.

expanding the degree of variation/increasing the conversion angle

My translation is a bit clumsy and you can probably improve it, but I *think* what is meant is that, since CVTC is a system for varying the opening and closing times of the valves to increase fuel efficiency, by allowing more variation they achieved greater efficiency.
But you might want a second opinion on this one!

variable phase angle

just a guess

Variable valve timing allows the phase angle on both cams to be varied by 50°, ... double continuous variable valve timing on the inlet and exhaust; ...

Like VVT-i, the variable valve timing is implemented by shifting the phase angle of the whole camshaft forward or reverse by means of a hydraulic actuator ...
