The speed of a piston in an engine is determined by the engine's RPM (revolutions per minute) and the stroke length of the piston. The speed can be calculated using the formula: speed = (2 * pi * RPM * stroke length) / 60. Increasing the RPM or stroke length will increase the speed of the piston.
the 2 stroke has more rpm than 4 stroke because it has less moving parts and the cycles are faster because there is only 2 and in the 4 stroke there is 4
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.
In a twin-cylinder four-stroke engine, the crankshaft completes one full rotation for every two strokes of the pistons. Since the crankshaft is turning at 1000 RPM, the camshaft, which is typically driven by the crankshaft at half that speed, will turn at 500 RPM. Thus, the camshaft in this engine will be rotating at 500 RPM.
Governors limit the RPM of the engine. Removing it will increase RPM but can cause engine damage.
Bore to stroke ratio is a primary consideration. Valve timing (and in the case of a fuel injected engine, the injection timing) will also affect the engine's "power band" rpm range. For a given displacement, longer stroke = smaller bore dia, more torque and lower rpm. Diesels are more efficient if they have a lower rpm because the diesel fuel takes longer to burn. So the diesel engine will normally be designed for lower rpm.
Trick Question! ...depends on the RPM the engine is running at.
as far as i know, you should increase the rpm of an engine..because theoretically Power=2*Pi*N*T/60 where 'N' is the rpm. you should correspondingly improve the quality of the engine parts and the coolant system.
500 rpm
The tachometer is an electrical device that senses the ignition system. It indicates engine RPM (revolutions per minute). Engine rpm and crankshaft rpm are two ways of expressing the same thing. True, the crankshaft does rotate twice for each complete set of cylinder firings but the tachometer counts each rotation.
To increase the speed of the engine, which is measured in 'revolutions per minute' - shortened to RPM or 'revs'.
Since the load on the engine reduces in a dive. it tends to overspeed the engine.
