NOTE

AUTOMOBILE: A PETROL ENGINE III

Advantages of Two-Stroke Cycle engine

  1. Two-stroke engines have fewer moving parts, making them simpler and often lighter.
  2. Due to their simpler design, two-stroke engines can deliver more power per unit of weight compared to four-stroke engines.

3.Two-stroke engines complete a power cycle in every revolution, providing potentially higher power output compared to four-stroke engines of similar size.

  1. Fewer parts mean fewer components that can break or wear out, resulting in potentially lower maintenance requirements.

Advantages of Four-Stroke Cycle engine

  1. Four-stroke engines typically burn fuel more efficiently due to the separate intake, compression, power, and exhaust strokes, leading to better fuel economy.
  2. Four-stroke engines tend to produce fewer emissions because they have a dedicated exhaust stroke, allowing better control over combustion and exhaust processes.
  3. Four-stroke engines have a more balanced power delivery, resulting in smoother operation compared to the sometimes choppy power delivery of two-stroke engines.
  4. With less wear and tear per cycle, four-stroke engines generally have a longer lifespan than two-stroke engines, especially in applications where durability is crucial, such as automotive and industrial uses.

Differences between two stroke and four stroke cycle engine

Two stroke cycle

Four stroke cycle

 Completes intake, compression, power, and exhaust in two strokes

Completes intake, compression, power, and exhaust in four strokes

Oil is mixed with fuel for lubrication

 Oil is stored separately and circulated for lubrication

Higher power-to-weight ratio, but less fuel efficiency

Lower power-to-weight ratio, but more fuel efficient

 Tends to produce more emissions due to incomplete combustion

Produces fewer emissions due to more controlled combustion

 

EVALUATION: 1. Mention 4 advantages of two stroke cycle engine

  1. Mention 4 advantages of four stroke cycle engine
  2. Differentiate between two stroke and four stroke cycle engine

CLASSWORK: As in evaluation

CONCLUSION: The teacher commends the students positively
