What forces the piston down the cylinder on the power stroke?
The expanding high-pressure gases from combustion push the piston down the cylinder during the power stroke in an internal combustion engine. This force generated by the burning fuel drives the piston down, converting the pressure and heat energy into mechanical energy to rotate the engine's crankshaft.
What is the equation for the stroke volume in air compressor?
The stroke volume in an air compressor is typically calculated using the equation: Stroke Volume = π/4 * Bore^2 * Stroke. Bore represents the diameter of the cylinder and Stroke represents the distance the piston travels in the cylinder during one cycle.
What mean stroke in hydraulic jack?
In a hydraulic jack, a stroke refers to the distance the piston can move vertically within the cylinder of the jack. This distance ultimately determines the maximum height that the jack can lift an object. To calculate the stroke length, measure from the fully collapsed position to the fully extended position of the piston.
What is piston effort?
Piston effort refers to the force exerted by a piston in an engine as it moves up and down within a cylinder. It is a measure of the resistance that the piston encounters as it compresses air or fuel mixture during the power stroke and exhaust gases during the exhaust stroke. Proper piston effort is important for achieving optimal engine performance and efficiency.
What happens in the cylinder during each stage of the 4- stroke cycle in an internal combustion engine?
Its as simple as 'Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow'. 1st stroke Down = vacuum draws in air and fuel from carb (suck) 2nd stroke UP = Compression of air and fuel (Squeeze) 3rd stroke Down = Mixture of air and fuel explodes pushing cylinder down. (Bang) 4th stroke Up = Kinetic movement of piston and crank shaft keeps moving pushing the cylinder back up and expelling the burnt air and fuel mixture. (blow) back to 1st stroke again. when most engines have 4 pistons all doing this at slightly different times the Bank stoke gives more than the force required to compress another cylinders contents.
What is piston stroke?
a far from my knowledge one piston stroke is the distance the piston head traveled from bottom end of cylinder to top end of the cylinder
What is bore and stroke in a motorbike?
Bore is the diameter of the piston/cylinder, stroke is the distance the piston can travel between its highest position and its lowest position in the cylinder.
How do you calculate double acting cylinder stroke?
Its the distance from piston back, to piston out
What is Piston movement from top to bottom of the cylinder called?
Stroke
What is mean by stroke length in pneumatic cylinder?
the distance the piston moves
What is the definition of reciprocating pump?
a pump consisting of a piston that moves back and forth or up and down in a cylinder. The cylinder is equipped with inlet (suction) and outlet( discharge) valves. On the intake stroke, the suction valves are opened, and fluid is drawn into the cylinder. On the discharge stroke, the suction valves close, the discharge valves open, and fluid is forced out of the cylinder.
What is the distance a piston travels called?
The distance a piston travels within the cylinder is called the stroke. It is the distance between the top dead center (TDC) and the bottom dead center (BDC) positions of the piston.
How fuel works in cars engine?
All gasoline engines are four-stroke designs. An engine has an intake stroke where the intake valve is open and the piston is moving downward, creating a vacuum that sucks the fuel into the cylinder. The next stroke is the compression stroke. The intake valve closes, and the piston begins to move upward and compresses the fuel in preparation for ignition. The third stroke is the power stroke. The piston is approaches the top of the cylinder in the compression stroke. Just before it gets to top dead center, the spark plug fires and ignites the fuel. The fuel rapidly expands and pushes the piston down with great force. The last stroke is the exhaust stroke. In this stroke, the piston completes the power stroke and begins to rise again. At this point the exhaust valve opens, and the piston forces the exhaust out of the cylinder in preparation for the intake stroke.
Why is air and fuel forced into the cylinder during the induction stroke?
Air is not forced into the cylinder unless turbocharged. Atmospheric pressure is 14 psi. We stand and live in it every day. When the piston travels down it create a void that the atmospheric pressure rushes in to fill when the intake valve is opened.
Diffenerence between 2 stroke and 4 stroke?
The difference is in the amount of stokes the piston makes in one cycle. A four stroke will explode on one stroke turning the engine over. Then on the up stroke it pushes the exhaust out. The next down stroke fills the cylinder with fuel. On the final stroke the piston compresses the fuel and the cycle repeats. This results in four strokes of the piston. A two stroke has two strokes of the piston before it repeats the cycle. The first stroke is the explosion. The piston is pushed down. on the down stroke the piston reveals a port that exhausts, and then another port is revealed that fills the cylinder with fuel. the up stroke compresses the fuel and then the cycle repeats. The logical difference is the 2 stroke will accelerate faster
Why two stroke engine called by this name?
on 2 stroke engines the cylinder fires everytime the piston comes up. on 4 stroke engines the cylinder fires every other time the piston comes up http://videos.howstuffworks.com/user/4729-two-stroke-cycle-engine-video.htm
The piston displacement of a specific engines is meaning?
The piston cylinder bore, times the cylinder stroke, times the number of cylinders gives you the specific displacement for a particular engine.
