Ic ENGINE "Definition of Engine —> An engine is a device which tnanshoams one foam of energy into anathen fonm. However, while taanFonming energy from one form to another , the efficieny of convension plays an impontont role Nonmally, most of the engine, initially chemical energy shored in the system and Hu chemical energy convented to thermal energy. Finally , the thommal energy converted to mechomical energy and thenefone these one called heat engine * Detinition of heat engine — Heat engine ts a device which trantonm the chemical enengy of a fuel into theunol enengy and utilizes the tuanmal energy to pentoom useful wank. Thus the thermal enengy is conyented to mechanical enengy inn heat engine Heat engine con be classified into categonies—> OL. Engine DEL.

Duning the foun- strokes Hue one 5 events to be completed —> Suction, Compnession, Combustion, Expamsion ond Exhaust Each stroke consist of 180° of crankchoft notation ond hence a far stroke cycle is completed through 720° of crank notation.

The inlef value is open at this time and He exhaust valve is closed. Due to the suction created by motion of tu piston towards the BDC, We change consisting of fuel -ain mixture is drawn into the oylinden. When the piston reaches the BDC , Hu suction stnoke ends and the inlet value close *Compnession stroke —> Tha charge taken into the cylinden during the suction stroke is compnessed by the metunn stroke of piston |Z Ouning this nein stroke both inlet valve and exhaust volue one in closed position. This mixtune chich fills the entine eylinden. volume. ig nao compressed inko Yu clearance volume. Ak end of the compnession stroke , tha mivfwr is ignited with help of sponk plug located on the cylinder head. In idea! engine it is assumed that burning takes ploce instantaneously when He piston is ak te TC and hence the burning process con be approximated os heat oddibion at constant volume. Duning the bunning process the chemical energy of the fuel is converted to heat energy producing tempenatine nise of about 2000 C2->3). The pressune at the end of com bustion process is considlenably incnensed due to heat neleosed trom the fuel. * Expansion on _powen stroke —> The high pressure of the burnt gas fonces the piston towards BDC (3—>4), Both valves one im closed pasition.. During the four strokes only in this stroke powen is produced Both pressure ond temperature decneses duning expansion. * Exhoust stroke —> At th end of the expansion stroke the exhaust valve opens and He inlet valve nemain closed. The pressune falls to atmospheric pressure level o part of the burnt goses escope. The piston stants moving from the Bde bo TDC (4-0) ond sweeps He burnt gases out from the eylinder almost ot atmospheric pressure . The exhaust valve closes when the piston reaches TDC. At the end of the exhoust stroke and some nesidual goses trapped in the cleanance volume remain in the cylinder. FOUR-STROKE COMPRESSION IGNITION ENGINE The four-stroke C-L engine is similan to the four-staoke ST engine bak i operates at a much higher compression natio. The compression ratio of an ST engine is between 6 and lo while fora CL engine if is from I6-92. In the C-I engine during suchion shnoke, ain instead of fuel-ain mikbune ,is introduced. Due to high compnession notio employed , the tempenatune ot the end of Yu compnession. shnoke is sufficiently high to self ignite the Fuel hich is injected inko the combustion chamber. In C-I engine a high pressure fuel pump and an injecton one provided to inject the fuel into the combustion chamber.
