Typical Two Stroke Motor
This system manages to pack one power stroke into every two strokes of the piston (up-down). This is achieved by exhausting and re-charging the cylinder simultaneously.
• The steps involved here are:– Intake and exhaust occur at bottom dead center. Some form of pressure is
needed, either crankcase compression or super-charging.– Compression stroke: Fuel-air mix compressed and ignited. – Power stroke: piston is pushed downwards by the hot exhaust gases.
Typical Four Stroke Motor
Engines based on the four-stroke ("Otto cycle") have one power stroke for every four strokes (up-down-up-down) and employ spark plug ignition. Combustion occurs rapidly, and during combustion the volume varies little ("constant volumeThe steps involved here are:• Intake stroke: Air and vaporized fuel are drawn in.• Compression stroke: Fuel vapor and air are compressed and ignited.• Combustion stroke: Fuel combusts and piston is pushed downwards.• Exhaust stroke: Exhaust is driven out.
Here,
Bore is the diameter measurement of the cylinders in a piston engineStroke refers to the distance the piston travels between BDC and TDC
What is Displacement. How to calculate the CC of an engine
Let’s calculate the CC ourselves
Pulsar 220 DTS-I• Bore: 67 mm• Stroke: 62.4 mm
Displacement = (3.1415/4) * (6.7 *6.7) * (6.24) NOTE: 67 mm has been converted to cm by dividing it by 10. Same for
StrokeDisplacement = 219.99421 ~ 220 CC (cubic centimeters)
Types of engines• Perfectly Square - equal bore and stroke dimensions, giving a bore/stroke
value of exactly 1. – Example – Bugatti Veyron
• Oversquare or Short Stroke - bore is larger than stroke, giving a bore/stroke value of greater than 1. – Allows for larger/more valves.– Lower Friction Losses (less piston travel)– High engine speeds.– Example – Formula 1 and MotoGP engines.
• Undersquare or Long Stroke – bore is smaller than stroke, resulting in bore/stroke value of less than 1. – More compact– Higher Friction Losses– Typically tuned to make torque at lower engine speeds– Example – Enfield Bullet
• What is Compression Ratio
The compression ratio of an internal-combustion engine is a value that represents the ratio of the volume of its combustion chamber; from its largest capacity to its smallest capacity. For example, the compression ratio of a Bajaj Pulsar 220 DTS-I is 12.8:1
The ratio is calculated by the following formula:
where b = cylinder bore (diameter) s = piston stroke length Vc = clearance volume. It is the volume of the combustion chamber (including head
gasket). This is the minimum volume of the space at the end of the compression stroke, i.e. when the piston reaches top dead center (TDC). Because of the complex shape of this space, it is usually measured directly rather than calculated.
What is Power?• James Watt pioneered engine power measurement• Watt determined that a horse could turn a mill wheel 144 times in an hour (or
2.4 times a minute)• The wheel was 12 feet in radius, therefore the horse travelled 2.4 × 2π × 12 feet
in one minute• Watt judged that the horse could pull with a force of 180 pounds
• This was rounded off to 33,000• Brake horsepower (bhp) is the measure of an engine's horsepower without the
loss in power caused by the gearbox, alternator, differential, water pump, and other auxiliary components such as power steering pump, muffled exhaust system, etc
Power and Torque explained
• Torque: A simplified way of looking at torque is to say it is the amount of force from the engine that turns the rear wheel in a turning motion.
• Power: Is the rate of doing work. Normally can be calculated from the torque and RPM.
