What is a 2 cycle engine?
As the name suggests a two stroke engine achieves in two strokes what a four stroke engine achieves in four strokes.There are four stages in the cycle of both engines. These are;InductionCompressionPowerExhaustIn a four stroke engine these are separated into individual strokes of the piston.In a two stroke engine they are combined into 2 strokes as opposed to four by arranging ports and valves in a certain manner.Two stroke engines are generally lighter than four stroke and run at a higher speed. Though this is not always the caseThe two-stroke engine uses fixed intake and exhaust ports which are covered/uncovered by the up-and-down motion of the piston. The piston has only two strokes to a cycle, compression and power, the intake and exhaust being taken care of by the normal motion of the piston. Two stroke engines does not have an oil sump and an oil pump, their lubrication needs are met by the oil being mixed with the gasoline. Therein is their inherent problem: They are very pollutive. Their advantage is a tremendous amount of power-per-pound, as much as 80% more than a four stroke engine of comparable horsepower. There most common use in in applications where a maximum amount of power is needed in the smallest and lightest package, such as chain saws and outboard boat motors.
How does a 4 stroke engine work?
As the name states there are 4 strokes in a 4 stroke engine. Intake, when the piston draws in air/Fuel mixture. Compression, when the intake valve closes and the piston moves to the top off the stroke. Power stroke, when the compressed mixture is ignited, forcing the piston down. Last the exhaust stroke when the piston starts moving up and expells the burnt gases.
What happens when you put gas in 2 stroke dirt bike engine?
The engine cycle of a 2-stroke is as the name suggests comprised of two strokes of its piston. In its most basic form a two stroke engine operates by drawing an air-fuel mixture into the crankcase. As the piston descends it uncovers two ports in the cylinder walls. A new charge (volume of air-fuel mixture) is forced into the combustion chamber by the descending piston through the intake port. The new charge itself forces out the gases of the previous spent charge. After the piston passes bottom dead centre and rises it covers up the ports again, sealing the combustion chamber and compresses the charge. When the piston passes top dead centre, the charge is ignited. The piston is forced down and the process is repeated.
Why two stroke engine called by this name?
on 2 stroke engines the cylinder fires everytime the piston comes up. on 4 stroke engines the cylinder fires every other time the piston comes up http://videos.howstuffworks.com/user/4729-two-stroke-cycle-engine-video.htm

What is the name of the two stroke engine cycle?
I think you are looking for a detailed engineering answer. Common usage is that a two stroke engines is called a two stroke engine. By the way my experience says that two stroke engines only have two strokes and the second one is fatal.
How does a dirt bike engine work?
When you start kicking the kickstart the engine is turning over going through its strokes whether a 4 stroke or a 2 stroke, A 4 stroke has 4 Strokes (hence the name) they are, 1.Intake, 2. Compression, 3. Combustion, 4.Exhaust. 2 Strokes work in a similar way just less strokes. When you kick the kick starter it makes a spark out of the spark plug, the piston move up in down also. When the piston moves up and down it lets fuel by. And when the fuel goes by the spark and the fuel does not get along and it creates fire. Now when you put the bike in first gear you are pulling in the clutch witch separates the engine from the transmission letting you sit still, as you let out the clutch the engine and transmmission slowly make a connection making the bike move forward, the process is basicly the same when riding but you dont have to let out the clutch slowly. Hope this info helps.
What is gasoline powered otto cycle?
The otto cycle is the technical name for the 4 stroke engine. so a Gasoline or Petrol engine.
How does an aircraft reciprocating engine works?
A 'reciprocating engine' is just another name for a piston engine as opposed to a jet. Technically, the engine works just like the one in your car, with a piston moving in and out of a cylinder. The difference may be that the aircraft engine may have it's cylinders arranged in a circle ( radial engine) but the action is just the same.
