Research Summary
Reciprocating engines, also known as piston engines, are internal combustion engines that convert reciprocating motion of pistons into rotational motion to generate mechanical power. These engines operate on the principles of intake, compression, power, and exhaust strokes. During the intake stroke, a mixture of fuel and air is drawn into the cylinder. The piston then compresses this mixture in the compression stroke, leading to ignition and combustion in the power stroke. Finally, the exhaust stroke expels the burned gases. Reciprocating engines are widely used in various applications, including automobiles, motorcycles, aircraft, and power generators. They can be classified into two-stroke and four-stroke engines, each with its own set of advantages and applications. The versatility, simplicity, and efficiency of reciprocating engines make them a common choice for many transportation and power generation systems.
