3. INTRODUCTION
Perhaps the invention of the engine, or even introducing its
concept, was the most important scientific event in the
human history.
The revolutionary result was the replacement of the horse
carriage by the automobile or the HORSE-LESS CARRIAGE,
as it was initially called.
Engines are basic mechanical engineering devices, and they
have variety of applications in moving and non-moving
machines

4. NIKOLAS OTTO (1876)
History of I.C. Engine The internal combustion engine was first conceived and
developed in the late 1800’s•The man who is considered the inventor of the
modern IC engine and the founder of the industry is pictured to the TOP….Nikolas
Otto (1832-1891).•Otto developed a four-stroke engine in 1876, most often
referred to as a Spark Ignition, since a spark is needed to ignite the fuel air
mixture.

5. WHAT IS AN ENGINE’?
Engine is a device that converts heat
energy into mechanical energy
Heat energy is obtained
by
combustion of fuel

6. The combustion may take place
within the
engine cylinder
outside the
engine cylinder

17. MAJOR PARTS OF AN I.C. ENGINE
1. Cylinder
2. Cylinder Head
3. Piston
4. Piston rings
5. Connecting rod
6. Crank shaft
7. Cam shaft
8. Crank case
9. Fly wheel
10.Valves
11.Water jackets

18. CYLINDER
Cylinder: A round cylindrical casting in which a piston slides in and out to make
stroke. The cylinder is closed by a cylinder head.
Material: Grey Cast Iron, Aluminum

19. HEAD
Cylinder Head: It is fitted at the top of the cylinder. T as inlet and outlet
valves, spark plug/Fuel Injector, Water jackets

20. PISTON
Piston: It is a device which transmits energy to the connecting rod. It slides
up and down inside the cylinder. It has three grooves to accommodate

21. PISTON RINGS
Piston rings: Piston rings are inserted in the grooves of piston.
1). Oil ring: One ring is used
2). Compression Rings: Two rings are used
Material: Alloy cast iron plated with chromium or cadmium

22. CONNECTING ROD
Connecting rod: It converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into rotary
motion of the crank shaft. The small end of the connecting rod is
connected to piston and the big end to the crank shaft
Material: Plain carbon steel, Aluminum alloys, Nickel alloy, Steel

23. CRANK SHAFT
Crank shaft: The device used for getting power from the motion of the
piston and connecting rod and this power is applied to the flywheel
Material: Alloy steel, SG Iron

24. FLY WHEEL
9. Fly wheel: It is a big wheel attached with crank shaft. It maintains the
speed of the engine.

25. CAM SHAFT
7. Cam shaft: It operates the opening and closing of the engine valves. It
has number of cams which are driven by crank shaft through timing
gears. The function of the cam is to convert the rotary motion into linear
reciprocating motion

26. VALVES
Valves: The function of the valve is to admit fresh charge in the cylinder and to
send the discharge gases out. There are two valves namely inlet valve and
outlet valve.
Material
Inlet Valve: Nickel Chrome, Chrome molybdenum
Outlet Valve: Nickel Chrome, Stainless Steel, Tungsten Steel, Silicon chrome
steel

27. WATER JACKETS
1. Water jackets: Provided in the cylinder head. Purpose of the water
jackets is to keep the walls of the engine cool.

28. FOUR STROKE ENGINE
In a four stroke engine, one power stroke is
completed for every four strokes of the piston
or during two revolutions of the crankshaft
Petrol Engine: It is also known as Spark
Ignition (SI) Engine.
Four stroke Petrol requires four strokes of the
piston for one cycle of operation
The four strokes are:
1. Suction stroke 2. Compression stroke
3. Expansion stroke 4. Exhaust stroke

30. 4 STROKES OF THE IC ENGINE

31. TWO STROKE ENGINE
In the two stroke engine, the cycle of operation
is completed in two strokes of the piston or one
revolution of the crankshaft .
The charging of the cylinder with air-fuel
mixture (or air) is done by the following two
methods.

32. TWO STROKE ENGINE
1.Closed Crank compression: The piston
movement is caused by air in the crank case.
So the compressed air admitted into the
cylinder
2.Separate pump method: The charged air or
the air-fuel mixture is compressed by a
separate pump and the pump is driven by the
engine itself.
This method is used in multi cylinder engines

36. TWO STROKE PETROL ENGINE

37. WORKING PRINCIPLE OF TWO STROKE
PETROL ENGINE
In two stroke engine, one power stroke is
completed for every two strokes of the
piston or one revolution of the crankshaft
A two stroke engine has no valves and only
ports are present. There are three ports
namely inlet port, exhaust port and transfer
ports.

38. WORKING PRINCIPLE OF TWO STROKE
PETROL ENGINE
The strokes are:
1.First stroke – compression, suction and
ignition
2.Second stroke – Expansion and exhaustion

39. DIESEL ENGINE
OR
COMPRESSION IGNITION ENGINE
(C.I. ENGINE)

40. WORKING PRINCIPLE OF DIESEL
ENGINE
The working is similar to that of a petrol
engine and the only difference is a fuel
injector is present instead of a spark plug.
This is known as “Diesel Cycle”

41. WORKING PRINCIPLE OF FOUR STROKE
DIESEL ENGINE
