Introduction
Heat Engine

• Heat engines are devices used to produce net work from a supply of heat by
operating in a cyclic manner.

Thermal Efficiency

• Performance or efficiency, in general, can be expresses in terms of the


• desired output and the required input as

Wnet, out Q
Net work output  th   1  out
Thermal efficiency  Qin Qin
Total heat input
• The Thermal Efficiencies of Work-Producing Devices:
• Ordinary spark-ignition automobile engine 25 %
• Diesel engines and large gas-turbine plants 35 %
• Steam power plants 40 %
• Large combined gas-steam power plants 50 %
Internal Combustion Engines

• Internal combustion engines produce mechanical power from the chemical


energy contained in the fuel.

Important terminologies related to
reciprocating engine
• Top Dead Center (TDC)
• Bottom Dead Center (BDC)
• Clearance Volume (Vc) (The minimum cylinder volume)
• Total Volume (Vt) (The Maximum cylinder volume)
• Swept Volume (Vs) (Difference between Vt & Vc)
• Compression Ratio (Ratio of Vt to Vc)
Four Stroke Cycle

• Strokes = 4
• Crankshaft revolutions = 2
• Power Stroke = 1
Sequence of operation

• Both SI & CI engines use this cycle which comprises


1. INTAKE STROKE
2. COMPRESSION STROKE
3. POWER STROKE
4. EXHAUST STROKE
Intake stroke

• Which starts with the piston at TDC and ends with the piston at BDC, which
draws fresh mixture into the cylinder.to increase the mass inducted, the
inlet valve opens shortly before the stroke starts and closes after it ends.
COMPRESSION STROKE

• Both valves are closed


• Mixture inside the cylinder is compressed to a small fraction of its initial
volume
• Combustion initiated at the end of the compression
• Cylinder pressure increases
POWER STROKE OR EXPANSION
STROKE

• Start with piston at TDC and ends at BDC


• As the high pressure and high temperature gasses push the piston down and
force the crank to rotate
• As the piston approaches BDC the exhaust valve opens to initiate the
exhaust process and drop the cylinder pressure to close to the exhaust
pressure
AN EXHAUST STROKE

• Remaining burned gasses exit the cylinder:


• To obtain a higher power output from a given engine size and a simpler
valve design, the two stroke cycle was developed
Two Stroke Cycle

• Strokes = 2
• Crankshaft revolutions = 1
• Power Stroke = 1
Intake & Compression Stroke

• Starts by closing the inlet and exhaust ports and then compresses the
cylinder contents and draws fresh charge into the crankcase. As the piston
approaches the TDC, combustion is initiated.
