Four Stroke IC Engine |
Piston moves up and down TWICE to complete a cycle. Process takes TWO revolutions of the crankshaft
4 Strokes: Intake (piston moves DOWN) Compression (piston moves UP) Power (piston moves DOWN) Exhaust (piston moves UP) |
|
4 Stroke - Intake #1 |
Intake Stroke
Piston moves down and the intake valve opens. Air/Fuel mixture is drawn into the cylinder by the vacuum generated by the downward stroke. |
|
4 Stroke Intake #2 |
Compression Stroke
Piston moves up in the cylinder. Both intake and exhaust valves are closed. Compresses the air/fuel mixture which generates heat. When piston near top of upward travel, spark plug fires igniting the air/fuel mixture. |
|
4 Stroke Intake #3 |
Power Stroke
Mixture burns, creating gases which expand quickly pushing piston down. This stroke produces the engines power. |
|
4 Stroke Intake #4 |
Exhaust Stroke
Exhaust valves open and the waste gases (products of combustion) are pushed out of the cylinder by the rising piston. The engine then starts another complete cycle. |
|
Two Stroke IC Engine |
The piston moves up and down ONCE to complete a cycle. This process takes ONE revolution of the crankshaft.
2 Strokes are: Intake/Exhaust & Compression (piston moves UP) Intake/Exhaust & Power (piston moves DOWN)
Functions the same as four stroke engines but in a combined manner
|
|
2 Stroke #1 |
Intake/Exhaust & Compression
Downward movement of the piston, waste gases are exhausted and an air/fuel mixture is drawn into the cylinder by the vacuum generated. |
|
2 Stroke #2 |
Upward movement of the piston the air/fuel mixture is compressed generating heat. When piston reaches the top of its upward travel the spark plug fires igniting the mixture. |
