    4 Stroke Petrol Engine

    Uploaded by

    Muhammad Abubakar Shahzad Talib Shahzad
    This lab report describes the working of a four-stroke petrol engine. It discusses the key components of the engine including the piston cylinder, crankshaft, valves, and spark plug. It then explains the four strokes of the engine cycle: the intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, and exhaust stroke. During each stroke, the report details the movement of the piston and the opening/closing of valves to intake, compress, ignite, and exhaust the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder.

    SECTION: C

    DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING


    ENGINE:
    A device which converts given input into a specific output is called is an engine.

    MECHANICAL ENGINE:
    A mechanical engine is one which converts a given input into a mechanical output these are of two
    type i.e.: reciprocatry or rotary.

    INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE:


    The engine in which heat is produced within its physical boundaries is an internal combustion
    engine.

    TOP DEAD CENTRE (TDC):


    Top dead centre is the position of the piston in internal combustion engine when it is top of the
    stroke.

    BOTTOM DEAD CENTRE (BDC):


    Bottom dead centre is the position of the internal combustion engine when piston is at the bottom
    of the stroke.

    PARTS OF FOUR STROKE PETROL ENGINE

     PISTON CYLINDER:
    A piston cylinder is a thermodynamics working system in which piston moves to and fro in
    the cylindrical chamber. Its main purpose is to compress the fluid in the cylinder.

     CRANKSHAFT:
    The crankshaft is the moving part of internal engine that converts the linear motion of
    piston into rotational motion.

     VALVES:
    In engine intake and exhaust valves are used to control the admission of gases and fuel in
    the cylinders.

     SPARK PLUG:
    The sparkplug is used to give electric current to ignition chamber for ignition of air-fuel
    mixture present and result in abrupt expansion of gases.
    Figure 1: Crankshaft

    FOUR STROKE PETROL ENGINE


    A four stroke engine consists of four stroke, to complete one cycle to rotate the shaft twice. These
    four strokes are explained as under:

     INTAKE STROKE:
    In intake port the intake valve is opened and the air-fuel mixture is entered in the cylinder.
    For this the piston moves from the top dead centre of cylinder to bottom dead centre of
    cylinder increasing the volume for intake of air-fuel mixture. The air-fuel mixture is forced in
    by atmospheric pressure.

     COMPRESSION STROKE:
    In compression stroke the piston moves back to top dead centre compressing the air-fuel
    mixture. During this the intake and exhaust valve both remains close.

     POWER STROKE:
    In power stroke the compressed air-fuel mixture is ignited by the help of sparkplug. The
    pressure produced by ignition moves the piston from top dead centre to bottom dead
    centre.

     EXHAUST STROKE:
    In exhaust stroke the piston moves from bottom dead centre to top dead centre and the
    exhaust valve is open. During this the burned gases are expelled out air-fuel mixture through
    the exhaust valve.
    Figure 2: Movement of piston

    WORKING OF FOUR STROKE ENGINE


    In the intake stroke the piston moves from top dead centre to bottom dead centre. The inlet valve
    opens and the air-fuel mixture enter in the piston cylinder. Exhaust valve remains close during this
    stroke. In the compression stroke the piston moves from bottom dead centre to top dead centre,
    during this the air-fuel mixture present in the piston is compressed and the pressure of the air-fuel
    mixture increases. In power stroke the compressed mixture is ignited by sparkplug and the gases
    expand, moving the piston back to bottom dead centre. In the last stroke the exhaust valve opens
    and burned gases are removed from the piston and piston moves from BDC to TDC. The power from
    the piston is transferred to the crankshaft and the linear motion is converted into rotary motion. As
    one cycle of engine is completed the crankshaft completes two cycles.
