1.5.1 Important points in IC Engine

 If d > L it is called as over square engine.

 Swept volume (Vs): The volume swept by the working piston when travelling from one
dead center to other dead center is called as displacement or swept volume.

 Vs = A*L = PI/4*d*d*L

 Cubic capacity of the engine: The swept volume of the cylinder multiplied by number
of cylinders in an engine gives the cubic capacity of the engine expressed in Cubic
Centimeter (cc) or Liters.

 Clearance volume (Vc): The volume of the combustion chamber above the piston when
the piston is at TDC.


 Total Cylinder volume: It is sum of swept volume of the cylinder and clearance volume.

 VT= Vs + Vc

 Compression ratio (r): It is the ratio of the total volume of the cylinder to the clearance
volume.

 r = VT / Vc = (Vs + Vc) / Vc = 1 + Vs/Vc

1.4 Working of Two strokes and four stroke I. C. Engines:

The working of four stroke and two stroke engine is explained below
A) Four stroke engine:

B) Two-stroke Engine;
1.5 Valve Mechanism:

The valve timing or opening and closing


suction and discharge valve is powered by
crank shaft.

Valves are operated by Cam shaft.

Power flows through Crank shaft to timing


gears to camshaft to cams to push rod and
finally reaches the rocker arm which open or
close the two valves depending on the cam
profile and orientation.

Power from crank shaft flows to camshaft


through chain mechanism for double over
headed camshafts (DOHC).

Power transmission from Crank shaft to


Camshaft by using Belt drive.
Types of valve mechanism (Left to right):

a. Cam operated mechanism

b. Rocker arm with overhead


cam

c. Push rod mechanism

Valve springs normally keep the valve seat


in closed position inside the cylinder.

Cam Shaft

1.6 Valve timing diagram:

 Valve timing diagram is the crank angle during the crank rotation at which the two valve
opens or closes and tie at which spark is provided (in SI engines) and injection starts (In
CI Engines)
 In real cycle operation valve needs time (Due to inertia, to avoid vibrations due to sudden
opening, mechanical effects) to open and close (ie opening and closing of valve is non-
instantaneous).

 To ensure complete suction and exhaust, valve should remain fully open for 180 degrees
the time required for opening or closing the total angle for valve will always be greater
than 180 degrees.

 Both The Valve Opening Is Advanced and Closing Is Delayed (Time Loss). Combustion
Also Is Not Instantaneous and Needs Some Crank Angle Hence Ignition Is Advanced To
Ensure Complete Combustion At TDC (Time Loss).
