    Working of single piston designed six stroke engine

    7
    The intake stroke happens when the
    piston is on its downward path with
    the intake valve open. This action
    creates suction, drawing atomized
    fuel in this case gasoline mixed with
    air, into the combustion chamber.

    8
    The air-fuel mixture present in
    it compresses and is ready for
    combustion

    9
    The compressed fuel is ignited
    using spark plug. This makes the
    gases in cylinder expand and
    piston moves to BDC.

    10
    After the end of power stroke, the
    exhaust valve opens and the piston
    starts moving towards TDC. The
    waste gases exit through exhaust
    valve.

    11
    After the end of exhaust stroke,
    the second inlet valve is opened
    and water is injected in the
    cylinder. Due to high
    temperature of cylinder(about
    200 to 250 oc) the water is
    converted into steam and it
    expands till the piston moves
    towards BDC.

    12
    After piston moves towards BDC,
    the exhaust valve is opened again
    and the piston moves towards
    TDC. During this time the steam
    exits through exhaust valve.

    13
    Notable points:
     Note that there are 3 separate valves each for

    fuel inlet, water inlet and common exhaust.


    The water inlet starts only when the engine is

    heated to required extent.


    The water used here is pure distilled water in

    order to avoid scaling/sludging in engine cylinder.


    The water inlet is disabled if the cylinder
    temperature drops below 120 oC.

    Opposed piston Design six stroke engine

    16
    Advantages

     Reduction in fuel consumption by at least


    40%

     Two expansions(work/Power stroke) in six


    strokes

     Dramatic reduction in pollution ( up to 65%)

     Higher overall efficiency

     Lower engine temperature & noise level


    17
    Disadvantages

     Lesser Brake power & indicated


    power

     Engine size increases- many number


    of cylinders & additional components

     Repairing cost increases-


    construction is complicated

    18
    Applications

     Used in achieving high efficiency



    Used in reducing pollution
    Used in temperature regulating engine
    Used where the operating temperature of

    engine is high
    Used in racing cars to achieve high speed,
    torque along with efficiency
