2. PETROL ENGINES
Most engines use a fuel as their energy
store.The fuel is burnt to produce heat energy,which is
then converted into movement
What is an engine?
It is a device for converting stored energy
into useful work or movement.
6. CLASSIFICATION OF ENGINES (Contd..)
Engines can also be classified according to
whether the fuel is burnt inside or outside the
engine

COMBUSTION ENGINES
EXTERNALENGINES

22. TWO STROKE ENGINES
In this type of engines the cycle is completed in
two strokes.When the piston moves from B.D.C to
T.D.C, the air and fuel mixture is taken inside the
crank case.

Stroke is the distance of the piston travels
from BDC to TDC

This measurements are used to figure
the piston displacement

24. When the piston moves from T.D.C to B.D.C the inlet
port is closed, the mixture is compressed and
transferred the into the cylinder through transfer port.

27. When the piston is moving upward ,the mixture is
compressed.
At the same time,air and fuel mixture is coming into the
crankcase.

28. Compressed mixture
When the piston is moving upward ,the mixture is
compressed.
At the same time,air and fuel mixture is coming into the
crankcase.

29. At the end of the compression stroke, a spark is
given by a spark plug.The fuel mixture expands
rapidly.A high power is produced. This power
forces the piston downwards.So the piston
moves from T.D.C to B.D.C
Burning the fuel mixture

30. When the piston comes down, the exhaust port opens
and exhaust gases are going out.At the same time,the
transfer port also opens and the fresh mixture comes
inside the cylinder
Thus the four strokes are completed in two strokes of the engine

and exhaust gases are going out.At the same time,the

37. ADVANTAGES OF TWO STROKE ENGINES
1.Simple in construction
2.Easy to manufacture
3.Low cost
4.Simple lubrication system
5.Uniform power production
(one power stroke for every revolution of the crank shaft)
6.There is no separate valve operating mechanism
7.More power is produced
38. DISADVANTAGES OF TWO STROKE PETROL ENGINES
1.It consumes more lubrication oil
2.Wear and tear more
3 Not suitable for heavy duty engines
4.More wastage (unburnt fuel may escape through port)
5.The dead gases can not be removed completely
39. FOUR STROKE ENGINES
FIRST STROKE –SUCTION STROKE
While the inlet valve is open ,the descending piston draws fresh
petrol and air mixture into the cylinder.

44. SECOND STROKE-COMPRESSION STROKE
While the valves are closed,the rising piston
compresses the mixture to a pressure about 7-8atm;
the mixture is then ignited by the spark plug.
