PURPOSE AND PERSPECTIVE OF THE CHAPTER
The purpose of this chapter is to introduce students to the basic construction and operation of an internal
combustion engine. It describes the many engine components and how to identify the various pieces. Also
explained are the different engine classifications along with the different systems and how they work
ST
together to keep the engine operating effectively.
UV
CHAPTER OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this chapter, the student should be able to:
IA
Explain the principles of internal combustion engine operation.
Identify internal combustion engine parts by name.
Explain various engine classifications and systems.

CHAPTER OUTLINE
ED
In a simple one-cylinder engine, the reciprocating (up-and-down) motion of the piston is changed
to usable rotary motion by the connecting rod and crankshaft. A flywheel gives momentum to the
??
crankshaft between power strokes. Valves control the engine’s intake and exhaust. (PPT Slide 4)
During one four-stroke cycle, the intake, compression, power, and exhaust strokes are completed.
This action takes 720°, or two crankshaft revolutions. (PPT Slide 5)

The compression ratio is how the engine makes the most efficient use of the combustion event in
each cylinder. The higher the compression ratio the more potential output a cylinder has. (PPT
Slide 6)
Cylinders are arranged in-line, in a V-type, or opposed to each other. The most popular
ST
automotive engines have four, six, or eight cylinders. (PPT Slide 7)
The camshaft controls the opening and closing of the valves and, thus, the way that the engine
breathes. Different cam grinds provide better low-speed or better high-speed operation. (PPT
UV
Slides 8, 9)
The camshaft is driven by a chain, a belt, or gears. (PPT Slide 8)
Camshafts are driven by a timing chain or a timing belt. (PPT Slides 8, 9)
IA
Cylinder rows, called banks, are determined from the flywheel end of the engine. A complete
engine assembly including the heads is called a long block; without heads it is called a short
?_
block. (PPT Slide 12, 13)
The crankcase houses the crankshaft and bearings. It is enclosed by the oil pan. The crankshaft
has a flywheel on one end and a vibration damper or pulley on the other end. The part that the
AP
bearing rides against is called the main or rod bearing journal. Crankpins on four cylinders are
offset from each other by 180°, in-line six cylinders by 120°, and V8s by 90°. (PPT Slides
14)
PR
Engine sizes are described by their cylinder displacement, usually in liters. Engine breathing
determines the power that the engine develops. (PPT Slide 15)
The location of the camshaft depends on the engine design and the type of vehicle the engine is
being put in. Cam-In Block engines have the camshaft in the cylinder block. Overhead cam
OV
engines have the camshaft in the cylinder head. (PPT Slide 17)
Engine cylinders are fired in one of several firing orders. (PPT Slide 21)
Pairs of pistons that go up and down together but fire 360°from each other are called
ED
companions. (PPT Slide 19)
Most engines have liquid cooling systems that use coolant to prevent rust and corrosion and
provide additional protection against freezing and boiling. (PPT Slides 23–25)
??
Spark ignition engines utilize a spark plug to start the ignition event. (PPT Slide 26)
Compression engines utilize heat and pressure to start the ignition event in the cylinder (PPT
Slide 27)
