During the power stroke cycle of an internal combustion engine, the exhaust valve opens. This occurs after the combustion process, allowing the spent gases to exit the combustion chamber. The opening of the exhaust valve is crucial for maintaining engine efficiency and preventing back pressure that could hinder performance.
In a four-stroke engine, the intake valve opens in the intake stroke, allowing air-fuel mixture to enter, while the exhaust valve remains closed. During the compression stroke, both valves stay closed to build pressure. In the power stroke, the fuel ignites, pushing the piston down, with both valves still closed to retain pressure. Finally, in the exhaust stroke, the exhaust valve opens, allowing gases to escape, while the intake valve stays shut. This cycle repeats continuously, ensuring efficient engine operation.
Is the time when intake and exhaust valve remain oper during the exhaust stroke.
Nothing is impossible given enough money, determination and time to do it but ... I have to say that trying to do this idea is about as close as it comes! Two stroke relies on drawing the fuel mixture into the crankcase during the piston compression stroke to then pressurize it during the power stroke and thereby have pressure to force it up into the cylinder when the piston has traveled far enough to expose the cylinder intake port. The greatest challenge here is that the volume of a 2 stroke crankcase is specifically designed to be as small as possible with the piston at dead bottom so that all of the mixture is pushed up into the cylinder. A 4 stroke crankcase has no such constraint and is an enormous in comparison so it's volume has to be greatly reduced. *Then there's 4 stroke crankcase oil - can't be there anymore. *Then there's cylinder intake and exhaust ports to add plus how piston rings have ride past them - good luck on that modification! *Gonna need a rotary driven intake valve or a reed type check valve between the carburetor and crankcase * Throw out 4 stroke's valves, cam shaft, cam drive, push rods etc. *plug up 4 stroke valve ports in the head or make a new one with no ports. (Why did I waste my time answering this?)
Could be another name for the four stroke cylinder head, which contains the inlet / exhaust valves.
Turn the flywheel to BDC (bottom dead center) as you continue to turn the flywheel into the combustion stroke, it will be the first valve to move.
During the power stroke of an engine cycle, the intake valve closes, and the combustion chamber is sealed. As the piston moves downward, the fuel-air mixture is ignited, creating a rapid increase in pressure that forces the piston down. This downward movement generates power for the engine, while the exhaust valve remains closed until the power stroke is completed. The timing of valve operations is crucial for optimal engine performance.
In a 4-stroke engine cycle, each valve (intake and exhaust) opens once per cycle. This means that during one complete cycle of the engine, the intake valve opens once to allow air-fuel mixture in, and the exhaust valve opens once to expel exhaust gases. Therefore, each valve will open a total of one time during each 4-stroke cycle.
In a four-stroke engine, both the intake and exhaust valves are closed during the power stroke, allowing for maximum pressure to build from the combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Similarly, during the exhaust stroke, both valves are also closed momentarily after the power stroke until the piston moves up to expel the exhaust gases. However, the intake valve opens before the power stroke begins, and the exhaust valve opens at the end of the power stroke to facilitate the exhaust process. Thus, while both valves are closed during the power and exhaust strokes themselves, they open at specific times in the cycle.
In a four-stroke engine, the intake valve opens in the intake stroke, allowing air-fuel mixture to enter, while the exhaust valve remains closed. During the compression stroke, both valves stay closed to build pressure. In the power stroke, the fuel ignites, pushing the piston down, with both valves still closed to retain pressure. Finally, in the exhaust stroke, the exhaust valve opens, allowing gases to escape, while the intake valve stays shut. This cycle repeats continuously, ensuring efficient engine operation.
While there may be some overlap of valve opening timing, generally speaking, the exhaust valve opens after the power stroke, and the intake valve opens after the exhaust stroke. Recap... We start the combustion cycle of a standard 4-stroke engine with the intake stroke, the intake valve is open and the vacuum created by the downward movement of the piston draws in the air/fuel mixture from the intake manifold. The intake valve closes as the piston rounds bottom dead center and the compression stroke begins on the upward movement of the piston. At or near the top of the compression stroke, the spark plug fires (both valves are closed at this point) and begins the downward power stroke. As the piston rounds bottom dead center again, the exhaust valve opens to allow the piston to push out the exhaust gasses during the upward exhaust stroke. As the piston gets to the top, the exhaust valve closes and the intake valve opens to start the process over again.
During the power stroke in an engine, the ignited fuel-air mixture expands rapidly, pushing the piston downward. This downward movement creates the power that drives the crankshaft, producing mechanical energy. The exhaust valve then opens to release the burnt gases, completing the power stroke cycle.
Closed
If im not mistaken, during the power stage the intake and exhaust valves are both closed. the intake valve opens pulling air into the cylinder (cycle one) and the exhaust valve opens (cycle 4) to relase the air fuel mix that was ignited.
Is the time when intake and exhaust valve remain oper during the exhaust stroke.
The intake stroke is the first phase of the four-stroke engine cycle, during which the piston moves down the cylinder, creating a vacuum that draws in an air-fuel mixture through the open intake valve. This process prepares the engine for combustion by filling the combustion chamber with the necessary mixture. The intake stroke is crucial for efficient engine performance, as it sets the stage for the subsequent compression, power, and exhaust strokes.
During the power or combustion stage of a piston cycle, both valves are necessarily closed, because the expansion of gases is driving the piston down.
