it is called a piston


What type of internal combustion engine has no spark plugs?

The diesel engine, which ignites the fuel vapors by compression within a preheated cylinder.


How you can now if the engine is internal combustion or external combustion while it is not working?

By looking at the build of it. If it's a gas turbine, jet engine, ramjet, or rocket motor, then it's not internal combustion. If it uses pistons in enclosed cylinders, then the combustion occurs internally, within the engine housing. Hence, that would be an internal combustion motor. a reciprocating steam engine is external combustion even though it has enclosed cylinders


What is the meaning of internal?

Internal is the opposite of external. It is an adjective referring to things or situations on the inside. For example, in an internal combustion engine, all of the combustion (explosions) happen inside the engine. The internal affairs of an organization are the affairs (issues) of the personnel within the organization, and internal bleeding is when something inside the body is bleeding.


What is atomisation in IC engine?

In internal-combustion engines, the mixing of fuel with air or some other oxidizer within the engine in order to achieve complete and rapid combustion of the fuel.


What is the average temperature inside the combustion chamber of an internal combustion diesel engine?

the air temp at the end of the compression stroke for the ignition of diesel fuel within the combustion chamber is approx between 450*c - 675*c Brent


What is the difference between internal and external?

Internal is a concern, activity or process inside or "within" an entity (e.g. internal medicine, internal combustion).External is applied to forces or influences outside the entity (e.g. external symptoms, external hard drives).Internal and external are another way of saying inside and outside.


How many pistons are in a 4 stroke internal combustion engine?

A four stroke internal combustion engine can have any number of pistons, from one to one million. They usually have even numbers in order to maintain engine stability. The "four stroke internal combustion" signifies the type of engine. There are two stroke internal combustion engines, mostly one or two cylinder engines used in lawn mowers. An internal combustion engine is one that ignites an air fuel mixture within itself and uses the resulting explosion for power. There are external combustion engines, which are usually powered by steam heated in a separate container and pumped into the engine. Four stoke engine utilize a four step (or stroke) process in order to run. The steps are the intake stroke, where the engine breaths in air and fuel, the compression stroke, where it squeezes the air and fuel, the power stroke, where it ignites the air fuel mixture, and finally the exhaust stroke, where it pushes the remains of the ignition out. See the attached link for a graphic description of how two and four stoke engines work.


How heat energy is converted into work energy in a vechile?

Usually by the expansion of a gas (steam, combustion products, etc) which moves a piston within a cylinder (or turns a turbine).


How do you fix a Clutch on a 98 Model Z24 Chevy Cavalier when there is no pressure when you push it down?

It may be that your clutch master cylinder is bad, or more than likely one of the internal components within the cylinder, have the clutch master cylinder checked.


What does combustion mean in motorcycle?

What you're looking for is 'Internal Combustion Engine'. Fuel mixed with air gets ignited inside the engine and creates gases within it. The pressure from the explosions then turns mechanisms in the engine and gives it motion. Sound good? Bye-Bye!
