    #9 Advantages of Multi-Cylinder Engine - Aeexplained

    Uploaded by

    Ramsey Black
    Multi-cylinder engines have several advantages over single-cylinder engines. They have more cooling surface area due to smaller cylinder bores, which reduces temperature stresses. The primary and secondary forces are balanced, sufficiently reducing vibrations. They also provide more power strokes per revolution, enabling smoother torque output and easier silencing. Additionally, multi-cylinder engines can be lighter, more compact, and run at higher speeds than single-cylinder engines.
