    2 Stroke Engines

    The two-stroke engine completes all processes in two strokes of the piston rather than four strokes. It uses ports instead of valves to transfer the fuel-air mixture and exhaust gases. The crankcase is sealed to act as a pump, drawing the mixture in through an inlet port, compressing it, and releasing it into the cylinder through a transfer port so it can mix with exhaust gases leaving via the exhaust port. This allows the engine to produce power on every rotation of the crankshaft.

    2 stroke

    petrol engine

    As the name itself implies, all the


    processes in the two stroke cycle engine
    are completed in two strokes. These
    engine have 1 power stroke per
    revolution of the crankshaft.
    In the two stroke engine there is a two
    opening called ports are provided in place
    of valve of four stroke engines.
    These ports are opened and closed by
    reciprocating motion of the piston in the
    cylinder.

    Exhaust
    port

    Transfer
    port

    One port known as a inlet port and


    another port is known as a exhaust port.
    Two stroke engine consist of a cylinder
    with one end fitted with a cylinder head
    and other end fitted with a hermitically
    sealed crankcase which enables it to
    function as a pump in conjuction with the

    Crank
    case

    Working of the two stroke petrol


    engine
    Intake of the petrol and air mixture
    When the piston moves upward in the fig. D. A partial vacuum is
    created in the crankcase until is lower is edge uncovers the inlet
    port completely in fig. A.
    The pressure difference set up between the atmosphere and the
    crankcase will suck the petrol and air mixture to inlet port, into
    crankcase in fig. A.
    The suction will be continue till the inlet port is covered by piston
    during its next downward stroke after the inlet port is covered by
    piston in fig. B, its further downwards motion will compressed the
    charge in the crankcase upto top edge of the piston uncovers
    the transfer port in fig. B.
    The compressed charge flows from the crankcase to cylinder
    through transfer port.
    This will continue till the piston covers the transfer port during its

    First stroke
    At the beginning of the first stroke piston Is at the TDC as shown in fig.
    A. Piston moves from TDC to BDC.
    The electric spark ignites the compressed charge . The combustion of
    the charge will release the hot gases which increase the temperature
    and pressure in cylinder. The high pressure combustion engine to force
    piston downward .
    The piston perform power stroke till it uncovers the exhaust port As
    shown in fig. B. The combustion gases which are at the pressure
    slightly higher than atmosphere pressure escape through exhaust port.
    The piston uncovers the transfer port the fresh charge flow from the
    crankcase into cylinder through transfer port as shown in fig. B.
    Which enters the cylinder pushes the burnt gases , so more amount of
    exhaust gases come out through exhaust port as shown in fog. B.
    This swiping out of exhaust gases by incoming fresh charge is called
    scavenging.

    Second Stroke
    In this stroke piston moves from BDC to TDC.
    When it covers the transfer port in fig. C. , the supply of
    charge is stopped and then when it moves further up it
    covers the exhaust port completely in fig. D stop the
    scavenging.
    Further upward motion of the piston will compressed the
    charge in the cylinder.
    After the piston reaches TDC the first stroke repeats again.

    Operation of two-stroke engine


    The two stroke engine employs the crankcase as
    well as the cylinder to achieve all the elements of
    the cycle in only two strokes of the piston.

    360 degrees rotation of crankshaft


    completes the cycle.
