INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE Parts
INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE Parts
-is a heat engine where the combustion of the fuel happened inside the engine itself. Then the
engine produced thrust which produces movement on the components
Cylinder
-It is the main part of the engine inside which piston reciprocates
Function of Cylinder
-This chamber is where the ignition happens
Cylinder Head
Terminology
▪ Cylinder bore- The nominal inner diameter of the working cylinder
▪ Piston area-The area of circle of diameter equal to the cylinder bore
▪ Dead center-The position of the working piston and the moving parts which
are mechanically connected to it at the moment when the direction of the
piston motion is reversed
▪ Top dead Center(TDC)-Dead center when the piston is nearest to the
crankshaft.
▪ Bottom dead Center(BDC)-Dead center when the position is farthest from
the crankshaft.
▪ Stroke- The maximum distance travelled by the piston in the cylinder in
one direction.
▪ Total volume of cylinder- It is the volume of cylinder when the piston is at
bottom dead center.
▪ Clearance volume of cylinder -the nominal volume of the space on the
combustion side of the piston at the top dead center
▪ Swept or displace volume -The difference between total volume and
clearance volume
▪ Compression ratio-The ratio of maximum volume to minimum volume of
cylinder
▪ Stroke bore ratio- the ratio of diameter of cylinder to length of stroke.
▪ Mean effective pressure-The average pressure acting upon the piston
▪ Mean piston speed-the distance traveled by the piston per unit of time
