Two-stroke Engine
The cycle is completed in two strokes, one revolution of against two revolutions of four
stroke cycle. The crank shaft as and The difference between the (2-stroke & 4-stroke) engines
is in the method of filling the cylinder with the fresh charge removing the burned gases from
the cylinder , only two piston strokes are required to complete the cycle, one for Compression
the fresh charge and the other expansion or power stroke.
scavenging process:
There is no exhaust stroke available to clear the cylinder from burnt gases. The process
of clearing the cylinder, after the expansion stroke is called scavenging process. This must be
completed in very short duration available between the end of expansion stroke and start of the
charging process.

scavenging parameters:
Because there is a significant difference between the mass of air that enters the cylinder and
the mass of air that is retained trapped, the concept of ( η v ) is replaced by:
1- scavenging ratio λ sc:
mass of air supplied
λ sc = fill cylinder vol at (Po∧¿)¿ ¿ [ ṁ a ¿s ¿ ¿ ṁ cy ]by mass=[ V̇ a ¿ s ¿ ¿ V̇ cy ] by volume
mass of air ¿
2- delivery ratio λ d :
mass of air supplied
λ d= fill cylinder vol . at(Po∧¿)¿=ṁa ¿s ¿
mass of air ¿ ṁd ( ṁs )
