3. CLASSIFICATIONS
– form of energy they utilize, as steam,
compressed air, diesel and gasoline
– the type of motion of their principal parts, as
reciprocating and rotary
– the place where the exchange from chemical
to heat energy takes place, as internal
combustion and external combustion
– the position of the cylinders of the engine, as
V, in-line, flat, and radial
– the number of strokes of the piston for a
complete cycle, as two-stroke and

8. 4 STROKE PETROL ENGINE
• STROKE: The distance the piston moves
when traveling from Bottom dead center
(BDC) to Top dead center (TDC) or vice
versa.

13. 4 TROKE PETROL ENGINE – Cooling system
keep the engine from overheating by
transferring this heat to the air
allow the engine to heat up as quickly as
possible, and then to keep the engine at a
constant temperature.
