Four Stroke Engine

-



Petrol Engine uses petrol as a fuel for combustion inside the cylinder. The petrol engine consist of a spark plug which ignite the air-fuel mixture (Air + Petrol). In petrol engine the carburetor prepare the require air fuel mixture Send it into the combustion chamber (Cylinder). Distance travelled between top dead centre and bottom dead centre is known as stroke.

Four Stroke Internal Combustion Engine

Four stroke internal combustion engine executes four complete strokes within the Cylinder while the crankshaft completes two revolutions for each thermodynamic Cycle.Petrol Engine uses petrol as a fuel for combustion inside the cylinder. The petrol engine consist of a spark plug which ignite the air-fuel mixture (Air + Petrol). In petrol engine the carburetor prepare the require air fuel mixture Send it into the combustion chamber  (Cylinder). Distance travelled between top dead centre and bottom dead centre is known as stroke.


Intake Stroke (Induction or Suction Stroke):

During the intake stroke, the piston moves downward, drawing a fresh charge of Vaporized fuel/air mixture.  The illustrated engine features a 'poppet' intake valve which is drawn open by the vacuum produced by the intake stroke.  Some early engines worked this way, however most modern engines incorporate an extra cam/lifter arrangement as seen on the exhaust valve.  The exhaust valve is held shut by a spring

Compression Stroke:

It is the process in which the fuel that was introduced into the engine cylinder is Compressed. During Compression Stroke the Piston moves from Bottom Dead Centre to Top Dead Centre. The Flywheel momentum drives the piston upward, compressing the fuel/air mixture. After the top dead centre the volume left is known as clearance volume. During Compression Stroke Both Intake Valve and Exhaust Valve remains closed.


Power Stroke (Combustion Stroke):

At the top of the compression stroke the spark plug fires, igniting the compressed fuel.  As
the fuel burns it expands, driving the piston downward. It is the only process in which the engine does work onto the surroundings.


Exhaust Stroke:

At the bottom of the power stroke, the exhaust valve is opened by the cam/lifter mechanism.  The upward stroke of the piston drives the exhausted fuel out of the Cylinder

To understand the deflection of beam Objective of  deflection of beam lab report 1. Learn basic working of beam 2. Perform theoretical calculation for deflection of beam 3. Perform series of experiment with different material, shapes and load  for beam 4. Compare the result and Discuss the finding Introduction to  deflection of beam Load supporting element in any structure that is installed in horizontal direction and take load perpendicular to its length is called a beam.   Based on the way it is installed in structure, beam can be classified in to four main types.  First simply supported beam which have supports at its both ends, second is overhanging beam which have length extended over its supports, third is overhanging beam which have more than two supports and fourth is cantilever beam which fixed only at one end and other end is free.  There are three basic types of supports available for beams which includes fixed ends support, pined connection support and roller end support.

Aim of Bending Moment in a Beam Aim of this experiment is to study effect of force magnitude on bending moment of beam Recommended:   Deflection of Beam Lab Report Theory Bending Moment in a Beam Beams A structural element which is designed and used to bear high load of structure and other external load is called beam. There are many different types of beam like cantilever beam, simple supported beam and overhanging beam.  Bending of Beam When an external load or the structural load applied in beam is large enough to displace the beam from its present place, then that deflection of beam from its resent axis is called bending of beam.  Bending Moment In simple words bending moment is the product of force applied on beam with the distance between the point of application of force and fixed end of the beam Introduction to Experiment of Bending Moment in a Beam This experiment is about studying the effect of force magnitude on bending of beam and for that structure hardwar

Aim of Bernoulli experiment Aim of this experiment is to compare the behaviour of ideal fluid and real fluid using Bernoulli experiment. Objective of Bernoulli Theorem 1. Use the venture meter apparatus to perform Bernoulli experiment and the effect of area of the flow velocity and fluid pressure 2. Use the Bernoulli’s equation /  Bernoulli theorem  to compare the behaviour of ideal and real fluid Introduction  Bernoulli Experiment According to the Bernoulli’s experiment when area available for the fluid to flow decrease then flow of fluid increase and at the mean while time the fluid pressure or the fluid potential energy decreases. Read about the Effect of Sluice Gate on the Flow of Fluid .  This principle was name after the Daniel Bernoulli who first writes this principle in book named Hydrodynamic.  Following are some of the application of the Bernoulli experiment Find the Air-flight Lift Baseball Draft Sailing Theory of Bernoulli's Theorem Experiment According to Mil
