Stroke and Its Operation

This type of operation is the one that usually predominates in engines


that run on gasoline also in those that run on diesel and it means that
the car uses a four-cycle combustion engine that is: intake,
compression, explosion (or also ignition) and escape.

This operation is what allows a mixture of gasoline and air to become


movement for the car. The four-stroke engine was created by Nikolaus
Otto in 1867 (hence it is also known as the Otto engine) and consists
of a cylinder, a rod, a crankshaft, at least two valves and other
elements that make coordinated work possible the engine. Four times
Four-stroke engine Four-stroke engine.

The four times are:

Intake: the piston descends, the intake valve opens and this allows the
air and gasoline mixture to enter the cylinder. Meanwhile, the exhaust
valve is closed.

Compression: the piston rises and the intake valve closes. Because
the exhaust also remains closed, the piston compresses the mixture of
air and fuel.

Explosion: The piston reaches the maximum of its travel. Then the
spark plug produces an electric spark that gives way to the explosion,
so the piston is driven down.

Exhaust: The piston rises again, but the exhaust valve is no longer
closed: it opens to allow the burned gases to escape.
