All You Need to Know About The Four-

Stroke Engine And Its Working

• The four-stroke petrol engine is the most common engine used in automobiles, also known as the gasoline
engine. Today these are widely used in bikes, cars as power units. In this post, we will explain the working
principle of a four-stroke engine. 
• Our daily activities require energy to be transferred from one object to another, sometimes as heat and
sometimes as work. Energy transfer of the heat is simple. For example, burning fuel discharges its chemical
energy directly into the surrounding area as heat, but it's not very easy to discharge chemical energy of fuel
as a work. 
• To do that, we require a heat engine. A heat engine is a device that transforms chemical energy or fuel into
thermal energy and then utilizes this thermal energy for mechanical work. Now, we shall see how the
thermal energy of the fuel is converted to the mechanical world in full stroke by total engines. 
• A four-stroke engine is an internal combustion engine with a spark-ignition designed to run petrol and similar
volatile fuels. A spark-ignition engine air-fuel is ignited by an electric spark generated by a spark plug. 
• The making of a four-stroke petrol engine depends on the following parts:
• Cylinder
• It is a cylindrical container in which the piston reciprocates.
• Connecting rod
• A connecting rod interconnects the piston and crankshaft and transmits the forces from the piston to the
crankshaft.
• Tang shaft
• Tang shaft converts the reciprocating motion of Pistons into proper rotary motion of the output shaft. The
big end of the connecting rod connects to the crank and can freely rotate on the crank. 
• Gudgeon pin
• The smaller end of the connecting rod is connected to the piston using a gudgeon pin, and the connecting
rod can swirl around the gudgeon pin.
• Piston
• A piston is placed inside the double cylinder diesel engine. So that it can have only sliding motion in one
direction.
• The resulting mechanism is known as the Slider crank mechanism. It converts the linear motion of the slider
into the rotary motion of the crank.
