A 4 stroke gasoline internal combustion engine operates on a 4 stroke cycle, hence the name, "4 stroke engine". The first stroke is the intake stroke, the piston moves down the cylinder, which creates a vaccume, which draws in fuel and air from the induction system. The second stroke is the compression stroke. The piston starts at the bottom of the cylinder and begins to move up, compressing the air and fuel mixture. Just before the piston is at the top of the cylinder (top dead center), the spark plug fires, igniting the compressed air and fuel mixture. The resulting explosion causes the 3rd stroke, the power stroke. The force of the explosion pushes the piston back down the cylinder, turning the crankshaft. The 4th and final stroke is the exhaust stroke. After the power stroke, there is exhaust gas left in the cylinder. The piston moves back up as the exhaust valve opens, pushing the gases up the cylinder and out the exhaust. This cycle continues thousands of time per minute as the engine is running. If anyone was wondering, a 14 year old wrote this explanation.

Does internal combustion engine needs air to work?
By nature ,all combustion needs air .
What is work of injector?
In an internal combustion engine, injectors spray atomized fuel into the combustion chamber
How do internal combustion engines work?
Internal combustion engines work by burning a mixture of fuel and air inside a combustion chamber. This creates a controlled explosion that pushes pistons, which then turn a crankshaft to generate power. The power produced is used to move the vehicle or machinery.
Is a mechatronics engineer work in industry internal combustion engine?
This particularly affects Mechatronics engineers, since their typical working day requires not only Internal Combustion Engines.
Is the crankshaft a internal combustion engin?
The crankshaft is part of a piston engine, which can be either an internal combustion engine (one that runs on gasoline, diesel, propane, natural gas or carbon monoxide) or an external combustion engine (a steam engine). The pistons are connected to the crankshaft through connecting rods. The pistons turn the crankshaft, which creates the rotating motion you bought the engine for.

Does a truck use an external or internal combustion engine.?
Internal combustion engine.
Which type of engine is classified as internal combustion?
Reciprocating engines (piston engines) are internal combustion engines. Rotary engines ( Wankel engine) is also an internal combustion engine. In general, all types of engines in which the combustion chamber is an integrating part of the engine is considered a internal combustion engine.
What is the most important difference between and internal combustion engine and an external combustion engine?
in internal combustion engine combustion happens internally in cylinder and in external combustion engine combustion happens externally in boiler
Basic difference in Internal combustion and External combustion engine's work principle?
internal combustion engine is one in which we burn the air fuel mixtue inside the cylinder of engine eg car engine external combustion engine is one in which we burn the fuel outside of engine and then take the hot gases inside the prime movers for taking out work eg gas turbine
