Abstract :In this study, the design and manufacturing of cam profiles with different valve lifts were carried out using the geometric spring curve method for a single-cylinder, four-stroke common rail diesel engine. Subsequently, the impact of the designed cam profiles on vibration and noise emissions in conventional diesel combustion was examined. The effects of the cam profiles obtained using the circular spring curve method and fitted with Fourier series on the tappet\'s speed, acceleration, and leap were examined, and then the cam profiles to be manufactured were determined. Experimental tests were conducted on vibration and noise emissions using the manufactured cam profiles with pure diesel fuel at five different engine loads and a constant engine speed. When the results are examined, increasing the valve lift amount compared to the original cam resulted in an approximate 24% increase in vibration level, while decreasing the valve lift amount reduced the vibration level by approximately 20%. the effect of cam profile modification on average noise emissions was quite evident.Keywords : camshaft design, diesel engine, noise emissions, valve lift, vibration
