    The document classifies engines based on several factors: 1. The number of strokes per cycle, with two-stroke and four-stroke engines being most common. 2. The type of fuel burned, such as petrol, diesel, gas or alternative fuels. 3. The method of ignition, which is either spark ignition or compression ignition. It then provides brief descriptions of common engine parts like the cylinder block, cylinder head, crankcase, piston, camshaft and crankshaft.

    ENGINE CLASSIFICATION
    Types of engines:

    • Thermal engines. Internal combustion engines (IC engines) External


    combustion engines (EC engines) Reaction engines.

    • Electrical engines.

    • Physical engines.

    Engines are generally classified according to:

    1. No of strokes per cycle Two or Four.

    In a 4-stroke engine, the piston completes 2-strokes during each revolution:


    one compression stroke and one exhaust stroke, each being followed by a
    return stroke. The spark plugs fire only once every other revolution, and
    power is produced every 4-strokes of the piston. These engines also do not
    require pre-mixing of fuel and oil, as they have a separate compartment for
    the oil.

    In a 2-stroke engine, the entire combustion cycle is completed with just one
    piston stroke: a compression stroke followed by the explosion of the
    compressed fuel. During the return stroke, the exhaust is let out and a fresh
    fuel mixture enters the cylinder. The spark plugs fire once every single
    revolution, and power is produced once every 2-strokes of the piston. Two-
    stroke engines also require the oil to be pre-mixed in with the fuel.

    2. Type of fuel burned

    Type of fuel: Petrol, Diesel, Gas, Bio / Alternative Fuels


    3. Method of ignition

    such as spark Ignition, compression Ignition


    Spark Ignition: An SI engine starts the combustion process in each cycle by
    use of a spark plug. In early engine development, before the invention of
    the electric spark plug, many forms of torch of torch holes were used to
    initiate combustion form an external flame. ‰ Compression Ignition: The
    combustion process in a CI engine starts when the air-fuel mixture self-
    ignites due to high temperature in the combustion chamber caused by high
    compression

    4. Firing order

    Firing order 1 3 4 2

    5. Reciprocating or rotary
    6. No of cylinders

    Number of Cylinders – From 1 to up to 18 cylinders (in a car)

    7. Arrangement of cylinders

    which are Inline, V, W, Horizontal, Radial

    8. Type of cooling

    Engine cooling methods such as Air-cooled, Liquid-cooled (Water-


    based), Oil-cooled (Oil is cooled separately)
