Yes, two stroke (or Two cycle) engines have oil that is mixed into the fuel to lubricate the motor's moving parts. Where as, in a 4 stroke engine the oil is separate from the fuel. When the fuel oil mix is burned in a two cycle engine more pollution is given off.
Two-stroke engines generally pollute the air more than four-stroke engines due to their design and operation. In a two-stroke engine, the combustion cycle is completed in just two strokes of the piston, which often leads to incomplete combustion and unburned fuel escaping during the exhaust phase. Additionally, two-stroke engines typically mix oil with fuel for lubrication, resulting in higher emissions of hydrocarbons and particulate matter. In contrast, four-stroke engines have a more efficient combustion process and separate lubrication systems, leading to lower emissions.
Unless we are talking about big diesels - Yes.
Two stroke engines will create a lot of visible smoke pollution and also more noise than four stroke engines. For these reason, many countries have required that all new motorcycles should be four-stroke.
jet engines, turbojet engines, turbo-prop engines, four-stroke piston driven engines... Can you be more specific?
A 2 stroke engine requires you to mix 2 cycle oil in with the gasoline. This requires more money, and it is much more trouble to have oil with you every time you fill the gas tank up. A 4 stroke engine only requires oil in the lower part of the engine, and it burns gasoline right out of the gas station pump. 2 cycles also pollute very bad, as the blue smoke that is a characteristic of them is bad pollution.
4 stroke outboard motor engines are unlikely to be outlawed anytime in the near future. 2 stroke engines probably will be outlawed. 2 stroke engines pollute the atmosphere. 4 stroke engines are standard gasoline engines like are in automobiles. They will probably be required to get better pollution control equipment, which will be easy. They will probably be required to be made more efficient, which will not be quite as easy. They will probably not be outlawed.
They are - most inboard engines are 4-stroke. But as with land vehicles, you can get a smaller engine with 2-stroke (or more horsepower with a smaller engine) so the small engines like some outboards tend to be 2-stroke.
Stroke refers to how the pistons move in the cylinder(s).The basic meaning is the length of the piston travel. Short stroke engines can turn over faster, but long stroke engines tend to have more pulling power.Stroke can also be used as 2-stroke and 4-stroke, which refers to the different work phases of the engine. 2-strokes give more power for their size, but they pollute more and often use more fuel. 4-stroke can be cleaner, but bigger, heavier, and have more parts.
two-stroke engines can produce more power than four-stroke engines that have the same size. they can occupy small spaces and produce the desired power. they are on the other hand produce more pollution than 4-stroke engines. that's why they are limited or suitable for small engine spaced machines
Combustion piston engines can have two different work cycles, 2-stroke and 4-stroke. 2-stroke tends to have a better power to weight ratio, but pollute more. A 4-stroke outboard is simply an outboard engine that works the same way as a car engine.
Most small engines are two stroke because you can get more power from a smaller engine with two stroke rather than a four stroke engine. It takes less to cool and to operate the engine.
Jet skis can significantly pollute the environment, primarily due to their two-stroke engines, which emit unburned fuel and oil directly into the water. On average, a single jet ski can produce emissions equivalent to that of a car driven for hundreds of miles in a short amount of time. Additionally, noise pollution from jet skis can disrupt marine life and local ecosystems. Efforts to reduce this pollution include promoting four-stroke engines and electric models, which are generally more environmentally friendly.
