When the piston goes up the heat temperature decreases while when the piston is down the heat temperature is increases.

What energy is used by helicopter?
Piston engines on small private helicopters and jets on almost all commercial and military helicopterd
Why petrol engines called constant volume engines?
In a engine, well 99.9% of them the piston is conected to a crank via a conrod, as nothing changes during the strokes of the piston and the cylinder bores dont change. The swept volume of the stroke is always constant.
What type of energy conversion is combustion?
Potential chemical energy to heat and light energy.
How do you convert thermal energy into motion?
The most usual way to convert thermal energy (i.e., heat) into motion is by means of a steam engine. You boil water, the steam pushes on a piston, and the piston can then move whatever it is that you want to move.
What direction is the piston going during the compression?
Using directions like upwards in this context is meaningless because you haven't defined how the piston is oriented.During the compression stroke of a typical 4-stroke gasoline engine, the piston takes energy from the crankshaft. The reason the whole scheme still works is that you get a lot more energy back after the combustion during the power stroke. Add up the total energy moved between the piston and the crankshaft over a whole cycle (two rotations of the crankshaft), and you will find the total being positive from piston to crankshaft.
What are some examples of heat energy transformation?
Thermal energy, mechanical energy, electrical energy and light energy.
Why do diesel engines have more torque than gas engines?
Engines with longer piston stroke, higher turbo boost pressures, and diesel fuel has more energy in it than gasoline.
Why steam engines considered to be external combustion engines?
because energy sourse(pressurised steam) is created externally (in boiler) prior to delivery to piston cylinder

What are all the types of car engines?
all car engines are internal combustion most car engines are Reciprocating piston some mazdas use wankel rotary engines hybrids use reciprocating piston engines in combination with electric motors
How many piston that airbus a380 have?
Airbus aircraft all have jets, not piston engines.
What is the piston crown?
The central part of the top of a piston, often raised in some engines.
What is a jet aircraft?
An aircraft propelled by jet engines rather than piston engines.
Which engine has more torque?
piston engines have more torque than jet engines..
What kind of engines are in a plane?
jet engines, turbojet engines, turbo-prop engines, four-stroke piston driven engines... Can you be more specific?
What kind of engines are steam engines?
It is an engine of one or more cylinders which relies on steam pressure to move a piston along.. Water is heated in a boiler, the steam expands though a tube into the cylinder and the pressure forces a piston to move. If the piston is connected to a crank this horizontal motion can be converted to a rotary motion which can then drive a locomotive, machine or pump. +++ That does not really answer the question. The Steam Engine is a type of Heat Engine - i.e. it converts heat energy to mechanical energy.
