Can you name and describe the four strokes that make up one full cycle of a 4-stroke engine?
The Otto cycle, know as the four stroke cycle is as follows.
Induction
Compression
Power
Exhaust
This is a simplified explanation of a petrol engine, the basic details are correct. Most are also relevant to a CI engine. It is not meant to be a definitive answer and is only a description for the basic operation.
Induction:
The inlet valve opens and the piston moves down the cylinder causing a partial vacuum and drawing an air/fuel mixture into the cylinder through the inlet manifold.
Compression:
The inlet valve closes and the piston moves up the cylinder compressing the air/fuel mixture. The compression ratios vary.
Power:
Near the top of the compression stroke a spark is induced and the air/fuel mixture is ignited. This causes the gasses to expand rapidly and forces the piston down the cylinder.
Exhaust:
The exhaust valve opens and the piston moves up the cylinder expelling the burnt gasses out through the exhaust manifold. The exhaust valve closes and the cycle starts again.
- intake: In this stroke air (and in non-fuel-injected engines gasoline) is drawn in.
- compression: In this stroke air (and in non-fuel-injected engines gasoline) is compressed (just before the end of this stroke in fuel-injected engines the gasoline is injected, then a spark ignites the fuel/air mixture).
- expansion: in this stroke the burning fuel/air mixture pushes against the piston, doing work.
- exhaust: in this stroke the burnt fuel/air mixture is pushed from the cylinder to make room for a fresh charge on the next intake stroke.
Intake, compression, power, exhaust.
The first stroke down takes the air/fuel mixture in thus intake, then as the cylinder rotates up, the mixture compresses. The fuel is ignited and the power stroke starts down and as the cylinder goes back up it is the exhaust phase where it expels the burnt fuel and then starts the first stroke again

What is 4stroke engine?
A 4 stroke engine takes 4 strokes to complete a cycle. 1, intake. 2, compression. 3, ignition/power. 4, exhaust.
How many degrees of crankshaft rotation does it take to complete one complete engine cycle in a stroke engine?
In a four-stroke engine, it takes 720 degrees of crankshaft rotation to complete one full engine cycle, as the cycle consists of four strokes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. Each stroke corresponds to 180 degrees of rotation. In contrast, a two-stroke engine completes a cycle in just 360 degrees of crankshaft rotation, encompassing both the power and exhaust strokes in a single revolution.
How many degrees of crankshaft rotation does it take to complete one complete engine cycle in a 4-stroke engine?
In a 4-stroke engine, one complete engine cycle consists of four strokes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. This cycle requires two full rotations of the crankshaft, which equals 720 degrees of crankshaft rotation. Each stroke corresponds to 180 degrees of crankshaft movement, collectively completing the cycle.
What is the functions of heat power cycle in a steam power plant?
There is no such thing as a heat power cycle in a steam engine.The power stroke, or strokes, result from pressurised steam being let into the cylinder and moving the piston.
How many revolutions of the crankshaft does a 2 cycle engine make to complete a combustion cycle?
1
What is 4stroke engine?
A 4 stroke engine takes 4 strokes to complete a cycle. 1, intake. 2, compression. 3, ignition/power. 4, exhaust.
What are the major difference between 4stroke engine and 2stroke engine?
A four stroke engine has 4 strokes per cycle, whereas the two stroke engine has only 2 strokes per cycle. Since the 2 stroke engine has twice as many power strokes as a 4 stroke engine at a given rpm, the 2 stroke is capable of making nearly twice the power of a 4 stroke for a given displacement.
What are the 4 strokes in a Otto cycle engine?
The 4 strokes areIntakeCompressionPowerExhaust
How many strokes are in a 2 cycle engine?
Cycle means the number of piston strokes for a complete cycle. 2 stroke= 2 cycle.
What kind of gas do you use for a Honda xr80r 2-cycle or regular gas?
regular gas xr is a 4stroke engine
What is the difference between cycle and stroke?
In a two-stroke engine, two strokes is one cycle. In a four stroke engine, four strokes is one complete cycle. A stroke is a part of a cycle. Remember that the "up" motion and the "down" motion each count as one stroke.
Strokes produces mechanical energy output from a four cycle engine?
In a four-cycle engine, strokes refer to the four movements of the piston during the combustion process: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. These strokes work together to convert fuel into mechanical energy that powers the vehicle or machinery.
What are the four strokes of a four-stroke cycle engine?
intake-compression-combustion-exhaust
What are the four-stroke engine cycle?
The four strokes are... Intake, Compression, Combustion, Exhaust.
Why 2 strokes engines are lighter than 4 strokes engines?
There is no oil resivoir holding oil that weighs around 1.7 pounds per quart. A 2 cycle engine also does not have valves which a 4 cycle does. All this makes the 2 cycle engine simpliar and lighter.
Name the four piston strokes of a four cycle engine?
Intake, Compression, Power and Exhaust
How many revolutions of the crankshaft does it take to complete the cycle of a 4-stroke cycle engine?
It takes two revolutions of the crankshaft to complete the cycle of a 4-stroke cycle engine. Each revolution includes the intake, compression, power, and exhaust strokes of the engine.
