However the design of petrol, gas, and diesel engines is different and the working

of all types of engines are different. Petrol and Gas engine works on otto cycle, diesel engine

works on diesel cycle. There is a carburetor in petrol engine, gas atomizer in gas engine and

fuel injection system is there in diesel engine. Also the compression ratio for all types of

engines is different. The design of combustion chamber for all types of engines is also

different. The ignition temperature of kerosene and diesel are 220C and 210C respectively

3. THERE 4 STROKES ARE HAPPEN INSIDE THE 4STROKE

ENGINE: -

1 – Intake/Suction stroke

2 – Compression stroke

3 – Expansion stroke

4 – Exhaust stroke

3.1. INTAKE/SUCTION STROKE:-

In suction stroke piston starts at Top Dead Center (TDC) of the cylinder and moves

to the Bottom Dead Center (BDC). Outlet valve will be closed and inlet valve will be open

to allowing the fresh charge of mixed fuel & air into the cylinder.

3.2. COMPRESSION STROKE:-


[3]

In compression stroke, Once piston reaches BDC & moves back TDC ,inlet valve

will be closed ,As the piston moves towards TDC, It compress air fuel mixture inside the

cylinder & compression takes place ,Hence it is called compression stroke.

3.3. EXPANSION STROKE: -


In expansion stroke, Both the valves are closed, When piston reaches top of its

stroke the fuel mixture is ignited by spark plug due to spark high temperature & pressure

generated inside the cylinder & push down the piston to BDC, Hence it is known as

expansion stroke.
3.4. EXHAUST STROKE: -

In this stroke exhaust valve is opened, when piston reaches to BDC & moves to

upward. Piston pushes out the burnt gases to the atmosphere through the exhaust valve.

Hence called exhaust stroke & the engine is ready to begin the cycle again.

A petrol engine is an internal combustion engine with spark-ignition, designed to

run on petrol and similar volatile fuels..

In most Petrol Engines, The fuel and air are usually pre-mixed before

Compeeresion (Although some modern petrol engines now use cylinder-direct petrol

injection). The-mixing was formerly done in a carbureter, but now it is done by

electronically controlled fuel injection, except in small engines where the cost/complication

of electronics does not justify the added engine efficiency. The process differs from a Diesel

engine in the method of mixing the fuel and air, and in using spark plugs to initiate the

combustion process. In a diesel engine, only air is compressed (and therefore heated), and

the fuel is injected into very hot air at the END of the compression stroke,and,self-ignites.

With both air and fuel in a closed cylinder, compressing the mixture too much

poses the danger the Auto-Ignition — or behaving like a diesel engine. Because of the

difference in burn rates between the two different fuels, petrol engines are mechanically

designed with different timing than diesel, so to auto-ignite a petrol engine causes the

expansion of gas inside the cylinder to recites greatest points before the cylinder has

reached the "top dead center" (TDC) position. A typical spark ignition occures just a few

degrees of crankshaft rotation before the reached reachs TDC, while allows time for the

gas to begin to expand. Then the bulk of the expansion occurs just after the piston has rotated
beyond TDC. Higher octane petrol burns slower, therefore it has a lower propensity autoignite

and its rate of expasion is lower. Thus, engines designed to run high-octane fuel

exclusively can achieve higher compression ratios.

Petrol engines run at high speed than diesels, partially due to their lighter pistons, connecting

rods and crankshaft (A design efficiency made possible by lower compression ratio) and due

to petrol burning faster than diesel. However the lower Compression ratio of a petrol engine

given a lower efficiency than a diesel engine. To give an example , a petrol engine is like

operating a bicycle in its lowest gear where each push from your feet adds little energy to the

system, but you still expand energy to move your legs back to the TDC position. A diesel

engines is like operating that simpel bicycle in its highest gear, where each push imparts

substantially more energy to the system than in the lower gear, but with the same effort being

used to move your legs back to TDC.

was formerly water, but is now usually a mixture of water and either Ethylene Glycol or

propylene glycol. These mixtures have lower freezing and higher boiling points than pure

water and also proper corrosion, with modern antifreezes also containing lubricants and other

additives to protect water pump seals and bearing . The cooling system is usually

pressurized to further raise the boiling point ofthecoolant.

4.3. COMPRESSIONRATIO:-

The compression ratio is the ratio between the total volumes of the cylinder and the

combustion chambers – at the beginning, and end of the compression stroke. Broadly

speaking, The higher the compression ratio, The higher the efficiency of the engine.

However, compression ratio has to be limited to avoid pre-ignition of the fuel-air

mixture would causeengine knoking and damage to the engine. modern motor-car engine

overall have compression ratios of between 9:1 and10:1, but this can go up to 11 or 12:1 for

high-performing engines that run on higheroctane.

WHAT IS AN ENGINE?

The word Engine comes from the Latin word ingenium which means 'ability'. Engine is

machinery. Generally a combustion engine is defined as a machine that produces

power(mechanical) by the combustion of substance like water or a fuel. Engines are

classified into various categories based on the type of cycle they use, the layout, the energy

source used, the cooling mechanism employed or its use.

Based on the layout, there are two types of Engines Internal-Combustion-Engines .

An engine is called an Internal Combustion Engine, If the combustion of a fuel like petrol

takes place inside it, in a chamber. The oxidizer used for combustion is usually air. The gases

produced as a result of combustion are high temperature and pressure. These gases exert

pressure on components such as a piston which moves over and produces energy
(mechanical). E.g. Petrol Engine

•External-Combustion-Engines An External Combustion engine is one in which the energy is

externally applied on a non combustible fluid like pressurized/hot water, liquid sodium

etc. Here these fluids are heated in an external chamber like boiler and steam is used to drive

the engine. E.g. Steam Engine

Based on the source of energy, internal combustion engines are classified as

•Petrol-Engines

•Diesel-Engines

Petrol-Engine or fuel engine are again categorized or classified into

1.2stroke-engine

2.4stroke-engine

Here we will discuss about a Four Stroke Petrol Engine and its working. Principle of a Four

Stroke Petrol Engine.

The principle used in a four stroke petrol engine is commonly known as Otto Cycle. It states

that there would be one power stroke for every four strokes. Such engines use a spark plug

which is used for the ignition of the combustible fuel used in the engine. Most of the cars,

bikes and trucks use a 4 stroke engines.

In every Otto cycle there is an adiabatic compression, addition of heat at constant volume, an

adiabatic expansion and the release of heat at constant volume. The P-V diagram for a 4

stroke engine is as follows:

Working of a Four Stroke Petrol Engine

A stroke is the movement of the piston from the top, to the bottom of the cylinder.

As the name suggest the Four Stroke Petrol Engine uses a cycle of four strokes and petrol as
the fuel. Each cycle includes 2 rotations of the crankshaft and four strokes, namely:

1.An Intake Stroke

2.A Compression Stroke

3.A Combustion Stroke also called Power Stroke

4.An Exhaust Stroke

The steps involved are as follows:

1. Intake Stroke: As the name suggests in this stroke the intake of fuel takes place. When the

engine starts, the piston descends to the cylinder's bottom from the top. Thus the pressure

inside the cylinder reduces. Now the intake valve opens and the fuel and air mixture enters

the cylinder. The-valve-then-closes.

2. Compression Stroke: This stroke is known as compression stroke because the compression

of the fuel mixture takes place at this stage. When the intake valve closes (exhaust valve is

already closed), the piston forced back to the top of the cylinder and the fuel mixture gets

compressed. The compression is around 1/8th of the original volume. An engine is

considered more efficient if its compression ratio is higher.

3. Combustion/Power Stroke: Now in case of petrol engine when the fuel mixture compresses

to the maximum value the spark plug produces spark which ignites the fuel mixture. The

combustion leads to the production of high pressure gases. Due to this tremendous force the

piston is driven back to the bottom of the cylinder. As the piston moves downwards, the

crankshaft rotates which rotates the wheels of the vehicle.

5. Exhaust Stroke: As the wheel moves to the bottom the exhaust valve opens up and due to

the momentum gained by the wheel the piston is pushed back to the top of the cylinder.
The gases due to combustion are hence expelled out of the cylinder into the atmosphere

through the exhaust valve.

The exhaust valve closes after the exhaust stroke and again the intake valve opens and the

four strokes are repeated.

An important factor in an engine’s performance is the compression ratio. In a conventional

petrol engine, the pressure of the fuel and air mixture is highest at the end of the compression

stroke, which is further increased by the engine’s heat. As a result, the provision of spark

leads to a rapid ignition. The high calorific value and energy density per unit volume of

mixture leads to a powerful combustion, but adequate pressure is needed to ensure that

enough fuel is available within that unit of volume.

If the engine is driven with petrol, droplets of petrol are introduced. However with LPG

mode, the fuel component of the mixture is released in gaseous stage. In this case, the

pressure becomes important to ensure enough fuel in the mixture. This is managed through

temperature: a higher temperature of the fuel is desired, increasing pressure and thus ensuring

adequate LPG quantity per volume of mixture.

Thus, in LPG there is a need of warming up of the engine so that there is enough heating of

the fuel air mixture so as to allow for the start of combustion process. This is in fact the

reason why in most of the LPG-kit fitted cars the engine is run for sometime in petrol mode

and later switched over to LPG mode, so that the engine is warm enough.

8. COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTION


Versus the petrol engine, an LPG equipped car adds a number of parts. The main components

of the LPG kit are the Tank, Vaporizer, Solenoid Valves, Switch, pipe and hose connections.

The vaporizer is the heart of the LPG kit. This instrument essentially reduces the pressure of
the LPG from its container, converting the liquid into gas, which is then passed directly into

the carburetor.

VAPORIZER:

This is a mechanical device which use at the place of carburetor . It is use to mix the air and

LPG for ignition .

SOLENOID:

The solenoid valves are two valves that regulate the flow of gas or petrol. These are

electromagnetic devices that respectively stop the flow of petrol when the car is being run on

LPG, and vice versa stops LPG flow when petrol is being used. It also stops the LPG flow

when the engine is stopped.

The tank is a secured device that holds the pressurized LPG in its liquid form.

LPG SWITCH:

KLOCKNER Gas Technology is a state of Art Technology and developed first time in the world

solely for small engines 50 cc to 375 cc air cooled, single cylinder 2 stroke as well 4 stroke

vehicles.Sole Objective to introduce Klockner Gas Technology, is to declare liquid fuel (Petrol)

Carburetor based technology as obsolete, used presently world wide on 2 Wheelers and 3

wheelers.World’s scientific community and automobile engineers must discard this carburetor

device, as it is impractical for carburetor to mix air and petrol in accurate and in metered quantity

to suit the ever changing and variable engine requirements.Carburetor technology has failed to

control the uneven supply of petrol with the incoming air stream to engine at various levels.

It is inbuilt and inherent draw back that in some circumstances the sucking air stream sucks
excess
petrol at carburetor ventury, resulting in petrol wastage and pollution.

Now let us replace this redundant carburetor technology with new revolutionary klockner gas

technology, which promises: -

• Cent % fuel efficiency.

• With clean exhaust and Zero Pollution.

If this new technology is implemented with right spirit in India alone, on in-use vehicles
(Existing

Vehicles) plus new vehicles added during the year.,

New KLOCKNER gas technology will save fuel worth Rs.200 crores per day.

or

73000 Crore rupees (Seven Kharab Thirty Arab Rupees) annually in foreign exchange only.

Even more importantly this will prevent entry of 1.5 crore tons of carbon and NOx pollutant
from

Air per day in India alone

Klockner Project will Drastically improve Air quality, crores of urban people suffering from Air

Born dieses will breathe in Fresh Air. (Which will help our urban citizens to breathe in fresh

Air), even lot more saving will be on a/c of engine life & maintenance.

9. MARKET POTENTIAL:-

To date No Proven Gas Technology available world wide to run two wheelers & single cylinder

small engine on LPG.

Klockner LPG converter provides complete solution and 110% performance of petrol engine on

Auto LPG Fuel.

In India alone we have an existing population of 90 million 2 wheelers


And every year another 9 Million new 2 wheelers are added to this existing population.

If every year 10% of this vehicle population if converted to LPG system then in India alone

we have an existing market of kits worth 4000/- crores Rupees.

Converter kits can be supplied as OEM to 2 wheeler giants (After all types of Govt. Approval
and

certification).Tremendous export potential, as there is a growing demand of LPG based products

inASIAN countries like Philippine, Indonesia, Malaysia etc.,

MARKET VIABILITY:-

LPG as Auto fuel is gaining popularity day by day. LPG dispensing Units/ Pumps are opening up

in all major cities of the country in another 2 years time another additional 20new cities will be

having LPG Pumps.

Major car manufacturers like Maruti Suzuki , GM etc., are already offering cars on only LPG
Fuel.

As a low polluting, LPG Auto Fuel is on promotional list of Govt.

During the refining process of oil, several different components are extracted, ranging from

near solid matter (tar), to liquid (petrol) to gaseous vapours.

LPG then, in its uncompressed form, is a mixture of these gases. It includes mostly propane

and butane and is spiked with some odorant which can be used to identify leaks.

When storing this gas, it is compressed which turns it into a liquid. Thus, it is called as

Liquefied Petroleus Gas.

ECONOMICS OF LPG:-
A user typically will be inclined to use LPG to reduce his cost of running his car. Versus the

reduced cost per kilometer, there is however an investment and maintenance implication. Let

us take a look at the investment to run LPG and the benefits of the same.

INVESTMENT:-

When a user opts to implement an LPG kit in his car, the cost of the conversion kit will be

around 15 to 18 thousand rupees. Even in company fitted LPG, we would expect a somewhat

larger price hike versus the equivalent petrol version.

The investment is a onetime investment, after which the user can reap the benefits of the

LPG.

ALL KLOCKNER GAS MODELS FOLLOWS THIS THUMB RULE FOR

GAS AVERAGE:

2 Stroke Engines - * 4 Times The Petrol Average.


4 Stroke Engines - 3.5 Times The Petrol Average.

(LPG Cost :- all calculated on domestic LPG Rates)

LPG is a clean burning fuel and reduces clogging of spark plug as well as carburetor and

piston block,

Where you save on maintenance cost

MILEAGE AND COST PER KM:-

To evaluate the cost of driving an LPG car, two factors are important. First of all, the cost of

a unit LPG and then the mileage of the LPG equipped car itself. Note that LPG is measured

in cost per KG, as LPG, being a pressurized Gas, will have a different amount of actual fuel

dependent on the pressure applied.

The cost per KG of LPG varies from state to state. For Bangalore, where we conducted our

analysis, the present cost of LPG is at Rs 35 per KG.

The mileage of an LPG equipped car depends on the car itself. For a Maruti 800 LPG car in a

very good condition, an LPG mileage of about 15 KM per KG was achieved by us in city

usage which goes up to 17 KM/KG in long drives.

Thus, considering the cost of LPG, the cost per KM is about Rs 2.33.

Equivalently, if the same car is run on petrol mode, a mileage of about 18KMPL is achieved.

Considering the cost of petrol at Rs 53 in Bangalore, the cost per KM with petrol would be

Rs 2.94.

In effect, on a Maruti 800 on LPG, there is a saving of 64 paise per km which is a relative

saving of 22%.

10. SAFETY AND MEASURES:-


A major deterrent for people to use LPG in the past has been safety concerns. Let us take a
look at the safety factor of LPG.

Though in general LPG fitted cars – be it company fitted or individually – are certified and

RTO aapproved, there have been stray incidents of bursting of these LPG cars.

However, on inspection it has always been shown that that those accidents had occurred with

domestic gas fitment, and not with kitted cars. It is clearly very dangerous to use domestic

LPG cylinders for running cars – it’s not only illegal but can also turn out to be fatal. At

the same time, clearly, there is no major safety concern as such when running a properly

equipped car.

Nevertheless, the foremost thing to take care while using LPG is leakage. The source of

leakage could be from the filter provided over the tank, the solenoid switch, and the pipelines.

Generally, pipelines from the rear tank are taken through side panels inside the compartment,

to avoid damage in pipe due to hitting of potholes, stones etc. Any regular maintenance

carried out will involve a full examination of these components for leakage.

Note that LPG comes with an added odour. Hence, as precautionary measure in case of any

smell, immediately disengage the engine to stop the flow of LPG and call authorities for

immediate rectification of problem.

CONCLUSION:

Finally we find out from this project is that we can save money 40% by using LPG at the

place of petrol because we can gate more millage compare than the petrol.

At the time of travelling in rural area there is no problem occur absence of petrol pump. If

we use LPG at the place of petrol or both petrol and LPG the maintance of the motor vehicles

will reduce.
