Cylinder Design
Small engines usually have one or two cylinders,
but may have as many as four.
Slanted
Cylinder Design-cont.
Three common cylinder configuration in multiple cylinder
engines:
V
Horizontally opposed
In-line
Cylinder Design-cont.
Small gas engines use three crankshaft orientations:
Multi-position
Horizontal
Vertical
When fuel is oxidized (burned) heat is
produced.
Cooling system
Exhaust system
Lubrication system
Radiation
Additional heat is also generated by
friction between the moving parts.
This heat must
also be
removed.

Heat
“Kinetic energy caused
by atoms and
molecules in motion
within a substance.”
Engines use heat in two ways
In a small engine, as the air-fuel
charge is compressed, internal energy
increases, producing heat.

the state of rest or motion of a body.”

Horsepower
A unit of power developed by James Watt to
provide a basis for comparing the amount of
power produced by horses and other engines.
1 Hp = 33,000 ft-lb/min
All internal combustion
Chemistry engines utilize some
form of fossil fuel.
A fossil fuel is composed of carbon and hydrogen.
