Study Notes
- Automobile engines must be lightweight and have minimum fuel consumption.
- Engines are classified based on the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, valve arrangement, cooling methods, fuel used, and thermodynamic cycles.
- Single-cylinder engines have one cylinder, while multi-cylinder engines have more than one cylinder.
- Cylinder arrangement includes in-line, V cylinder, and V-8 engines.
- Valve arrangement includes T-head, F-head, L-head, I-head, and overhead engines.
- Cooling methods include air-cooled and water-cooled engines.
- Gasoline, diesel, and gas are the types of fuel used in engines.
- Engines can be classified based on the thermodynamic cycle used, including constant volume combustion cycle, constant pressure combustion cycle, and mixed cycle engines.
- Air-cooled engines have fins to radiate heat, while water-cooled engines require circulation of water and have radiators.
- The difference between I-head and overhead valve engines is that I-head valves are actuated by push rods, while overhead valves are actuated by cams.
