3. THERE 4 STROKES ARE HAPPEN INSIDE THE 4STROKE
ENGINE: -
1 – Intake/Suction stroke
2 – Compression stroke
3 – Expansion stroke
4 – Exhaust 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.
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
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.
In most Petrol Engines, The fuel and air are usually pre-mixed before
Compeeresion (Although some modern petrol engines now use cylinder-direct petrol
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
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

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

WHAT IS AN ENGINE?
The word Engine comes from the Latin word ingenium which means 'ability'. Engine is
classified into various categories based on the type of cycle they use, the layout, the energy
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

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

Here we will discuss about a Four Stroke Petrol Engine and its working. Principle of a Four
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,
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
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. 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
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
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
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
The exhaust valve closes after the exhaust stroke and again the intake valve opens and the
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
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
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.
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
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
The tank is a secured device that holds the pressurized LPG in its liquid form.

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
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
The investment is a onetime investment, after which the user can reap the benefits of the
LPG.
GAS AVERAGE:
LPG is a clean burning fuel and reduces clogging of spark plug as well as carburetor and
piston block,
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
The cost per KG of LPG varies from state to state. For Bangalore, where we conducted our
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
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%.
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
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.
