摘要:The main problem SI engine with a positive crankcase ventilation system (PCV) is the formation ofcarbon crust due to the evaporation of the lubricating oil. This condition will cause engine knocking as well asperformance decreases.This problem can be reduced by adding oil catch tank between the PCV valve and the inductionchamber. This research aims to select the type of filter OCT to generate the optimal engine performance.Engineperformance is indicated by decreasing of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide emissions. While decreasing engineknocking is indicated by the coolant temperature. Water, natural zeolite and the urethane foam were used as a filter todetermine which type of filter OCT generate the optimum engine performance. The coolanttemperature and the exhaustemissions were measured at the engine speed of 750, 1500, 2500 and 3000 rpm.The results of this study show thatzeolite filter has the most optimum performance in all engine speed conditions.
