More Information
Summary:A cylinder head including an integrated exhaust manifold (IEM cylinder head) is coupled to a cylinder block of an engine. The IEM cylinder head comprises an exhaust collector coupled to cylinder exhaust valves, an exhaust port coupled to the exhaust collector, and a coolant jacket for cooling the cylinder head. An upper wall of the cylinder head at a region above the exhaust collector and proximal to the exhaust port may include a degas valve and a temperature sensor. The degas valve may be coupled at a top most dome portion of an upper coolant core of the coolant jacket to direct accumulated steam and/or gas out of the upper coolant core to a degas bottle.
