Introduction Types of Six stroke engines Bajulaz Six stroke Diesel engine Dual fuel Six stroke engine Comparison Specifications Features Performance and economy Conclusion

The six-stroke engine is a type of internal combustion engine based on the four-stroke engine. First developed in early 1990s Advancement is the Duel fuel six stroke diesel engine More efficient & reduce emissions.

 Approaches for six stroke engine design

First approach There is two additional strokes by the main piston as fifth and sixth stroke Second approach It uses a second opposed piston which moves at half the cyclical rate of the main piston

STROKE 2
Compression of pure air in heating chamber

STROKE 3
Release of combustion gases in the cylinder

STROKE 4
Recompression of pure air in the combustion chamber

STROKE 5
Release of pure air into cylinder

STROKE 6
Exhaust of combustion gases

This engine runs by two fuels i.e. diesel (primary fuel) and methanol (secondary fuel)

Lower maintenance costs due to less wearing parts (cylinder head) Longer service intervals possible due to lower operating temperatures recorded Increase in thermal efficiency by more than 20% Reduced fuel consumption

Reduction in fuel consumption by at least 40% Two expansions(work/Power stroke) in six strokes Dramatic reduction in pollution ( up to 65%) Higher overall efficiency Lower engine temperature & noise level Due to more air intake, the cooling system is improved Better scavenging and more extraction of work per cycle Less inertia due to lightness of moving parts

Brake power & indicated power per cycle per

cylinder is comparatively lesser

Engine size increases due to many number of

cylinders & additional components

Higher manufacturing cost of six stroke engine

Drastically reducing fuel consumption (by 40%) and

pollution (by 60-90%) without radically affecting performances

For the dual fuel six-stroke engine, soot & nitrous oxide was

practically eliminated by a small amount of methanol in the second combustion process.

It enables lower engine temperature and therefore increases

in the overall efficiency.
