exhaust manifold Model Cetak 3D

in automotive engineering, an exhaust manifold collects the exhaust gases from multiple cylinders into one pipe. the word manifold comes from the old english word manigfeald (from the anglo-saxon manig [many] and feald [fold]) and refers to the folding together of multiple inputs and outputs (in contrast, an inlet or intake manifold supplies air to the cylinders).

exhaust manifolds are generally simple cast iron or stainless steel units which collect engine exhaust gas from multiple cylinders and deliver it to the exhaust pipe. for many engines, there are aftermarket tubular exhaust manifolds known as headers in american english, as extractor manifolds in british and australian english,[1] and simply as "tubular manifolds" in british english.[citation needed] these consist of individual exhaust headpipes for each cylinder, which then usually converge into one tube called a collector. headers that do not have collectors are called zoomie headers.
