Study Notes

  • The engine operates in four stages or periods.
  • The first stage is called intake, where the intake valve opens and the piston descends, filling the cylinder with gasoline and air.
  • Gasoline is represented by red droplets and air by blue droplets.
  • The second stage is compression, where the intake valve closes and the piston rises, compressing the gasoline and air mixture.
  • The mixture of gasoline and air is greatly reduced in space during compression.
  • The third stage is explosion, where the intake and exhaust valves are closed, and the spark plug ignites the gasoline and air mixture, causing a small explosion.
  • The explosion of the gasoline vapor pushes the piston downwards.
  • The fourth stage is exhaust, where the exhaust valve opens and the piston expels the smoke produced by the explosion out into the air.
  • This cycle of intake, compression, explosion, and exhaust occurs repeatedly at high speed.

Learn about the four stages of an engine's operation: intake, compression, explosion, and exhaust. Understand how the engine operates and the roles of valves, pistons, and spark plugs.
