The descending piston draws 2 fresh ixture of air and gas into the cylinder. Near bottom dead center both inlet and gas aduission valves close and on tthe succeeding upward. stroke, the piston compresses the mixture. At a point somewhat before top dead'center, ignition (from the spark plus) Securs. The spark, igniting the air-gas mixture, results in combustion Of the ‘compressed gis. The rapid rise in tonperature and prassure of the burning gases forces the piston downward for the power stroke. Near the end of the power stroke the exhaust valve opens. On the next Upward stroke the burned gases are expelled from the cylinder, thus completing the four-stroke cycle The exhaust gases are conducted by a manifold to an exhaust turbine. This turbine “turns on a comon shaft (but in a Separate conpartnent) with a conteifugal blower. The blower draws ia atnospheric. air and Forces it under pressure through intercoolers and into the engine intake manifolds. The afr at this stage is more dense than atnospheric air and therefore each cylinder recoives a greater weight of air than it would if. the alr were taken into the cylinder at atmospheric pressure. ‘This allove a corresponding. increase in” the amount of gas which can be burned efficiently and gives 4 propartionally greater output for a given Cylinder size and engine speed. Cooling of the intake air also reduces tthe possibility of detonation. The valve timing 13 s0 arranged that the intake valve opens before, and the exhaust valve closes after, top. dead center. During the period of Valve overlap” sone of the supercharging air. is blown through the cylinder, resulting ia amore complete scavenging of the burned gases. fn order’ that fuel gas will not be" lost into. the exhaust during this Scavenging period the “gat “adaission valve is closed, and opens at approximately the sane tine as the exhaust valve closes. an SECTION A ‘The purpose of this manual is to familiarize operating and maintenance personnel with the design and construction of the engine.
