1、Liquid-cooled engines and air-cooled engines are being used. Liquid-cooled engines are the most common in the engine industry.There are also other ways to classify the engines. Despite of these classifications, the structure of the engine is basically the same. Main Components曾润泽The engine consists
2、of several different mechanisms and systems including cylinder block, crankshaft and connecting rod mechanism, valve mechanism, fuel supply system, lubrication system, cooling system, ignition system and starting system.张永德 Cylinder BlockThe core of the engine is the cylinder, with the piston moving
3、 up and down inside the cylinder. Crankshaft and Connecting Rod MechanismThe crankshaft changes the linear movement of the piston into a rotational movement via a connecting rod. The connecting rod connects the piston to the crankshaft. It can rotate at both ends so that its angle can change as the
4、piston moves and the crankshaft rotates.张进 Valve MechanismA valve mechanism is a group of components that opens and closes the intake and exhaust valves in the cylinder head at the appropriate time. The main functions of the valve gear are to provide timely admission of the fresh charge into the cyl
5、inders and exhaust of spent gases from them.夏磊 Fuel Supply SystemThe fuel system supplies fuel to the engine. It also has the functions to regulate the volume of fuel supply. The fuel systems in diesel and gasoline engines are different.于晨雪 Lubrication SystemThe lubrication system uses an oil pump t
6、o continuously supply engine oil throughout the inside of the engine. This system reduces friction between parts with a film of oil. If the engine is run without oil, the friction can cause poor running, or cause even meltdown. In addition to lubrication, engine oil cools and cleans the engine.滕兆磊 C
7、ooling SystemThe cooling system regulates the engine temperature to an optimal level (80 to 90 at coolant temperature) by circulating the coolant throughout the engine under all operating conditions and during all seasons of the year. The cooling fan cools the coolant in the radiator and water pump
8、circulates the coolant through the cylinder head and the cylinder block.吕庆怡 Ignition SystemInternal combustion engines require ignition of the mixture, either by spark ignition (SI) or compression ignition (CI). Starting SystemThe starting system forces the engine to crank with an electric motor, an
9、d starts the engine.Text B Engine Operating PrincipleszhuangjihuiA four-stroke engine, also known as four-cycle, is an internal combustion engine in which the piston completes four separate strokes:intake, compression, power and exhaustduring two separate revolutions of the engines crankshaft, and o

11、at repeat with every two revolutions of the crankshaft: Intake stroke Compression stroke, Power stroke, Exhaust stroke. The four strokes will be illustrated in Fig.2.4.liyangThey draw in an air-fuel mixture to the cylinders, compress it, ignite and combust it, then discharge it. Repeating these four
12、 actions gives gasoline engines their power. The cycle begins at Top Dead Centre (TDC), when the piston is farthest away from the crankshaft. A cycle refers to the full travel of the piston from TDC to Bottom Dead Centre (BDC). renwenjie Intake StrokeOn the intake stroke of the piston, the piston de
13、scends from (TDC,BDC) to (TDC, BDC), reducing the pressure inside the cylinder. A mixture of fuel and air, or just air in a diesel engine, is forced by atmospheric pressure into the cylinder through the intake port. The intake valve(s) then (open,close). zhangshuai Compression StrokeWith both intake
14、 and exhaust valves (open,close), the piston returns to the top of the cylinder compressing the fuel-air mixture into the combustion chamber of the cylinder head.zhantianbao Power StrokeIt is also named as combustion stroke. While the piston is close to (TDC,BDC), the compressed airfuel mixture is i
15、gnited. The resulting massive pressure from the combustion of the compressed fuel-air mixture forces the piston back down toward (TDC,BDC). zhangzhikai Exhaust StrokeDuring the exhaust stroke, the piston once again returns to (TDC,BDC) while the exhaust valve is (open,close). This action evacuates t
