Cylinders
Place were combustion takes place
• Strong to withstand pressure forces
• Lightweight metal construction
• Good heat conduction properties
• Easy – inexpensive to manufacture / inspect / maintain

Cylinders
• Cylinder consists of cylinder head and the cylinder barrel
• Cylinder Head constructed from aluminum alloy
• Barrel usualy built from steel
![Page 4: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Cylinder Head
• Provides a place for the combustion to happen
• Provides heat conductivity for cooling
• Provides a mounting point for valves, spark plugs and their assemblies.
• In air cooled engines, cylinder heads must have cooling fins
![Page 5: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
5
Cylinder Barrel
• Usually built from a high strenght material
• Steel alloy forging with inner surface hardening
• Hardening by exposing steel to ammonia / cyanide gas (cianuro / ammoniaco) -> nitriding
• If barrels have got wear they can be overhauled to proper dimensions

Valves
• Intake / Exhaust Valves
• Mushroom and Tulip Types (Hongo / Tulipán)
• Subjected to high temperatures, stresses , etc.
• Intake valves operate at lower temperatures (usually built from nickel chromiun steel)
• Exhaust valves operate at higher temperatures: Cobalt chromiun steel or other temperature resistant alloys

Valve opening motion:
1) Starts at rotating camshaft
2) Camshaft moves a pushrod and
lift the rocking lever
3) Through a rocker shaft the valve
opens
4) Spring helps the valve returning
to its place

the more accurate the work with
opening and closing times,
and the more efficient
the engine.
Some engines feature a
hydraulic system for valve opening
(closing via a return spring),
but driven by a cam.
Some manufacturers now fit
VARIABLE valve timing;
to ensure that the valves
operate at the optimum point
at all rpm values
to gain maximum efficiency
from a piston engine.

Aircraft Reciprocant Engine Definitions
• DISPLACEMENT (CILINDRAJE) • CYLINDER BORE • PISTON STROKE • TOP DEAD CENTER / BOTTOM DEAD CENTER (TPC Y BDC) - • COMPRESSION RATIO (RELACIÓN DE COMPRESIÓN • VOLUMETRIC EFFICIENCY| • BRAKE HORSEPOWER
![Page 23: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
DISPLACEMENT
DISPLACEMENENT (CILINDRAJE O DESPLAZAMIENT) REFERS TO THE TOTAL VOLUME DISPLACED BY THE ENGINE IN A THERMODINAMIC CYCLE. IT MAY ALSO REFER TO THE DISPLACEMENT OF A SINGLE CYLINDER DISPLACEMENT= CYLINDER DISPLACEMENT (Cd) * # of Cylinders
![Page 24: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ENGINE BORE AND STROKE
REQUIRED TO MEASURE ENGINE SIZE “Engine size is determined by the cylinder diameter (BORE), the amount of piston travel (STROKE) and the number of cylinders”
![Page 25: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
ENGINE BORE AND STROKE
![Page 26: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ENGINE BORE
Diameter of the engine cylinder
Measured across the cylinder, parallel with the top of the block
Cylinder bores vary in size, but typically range from 3–4" (75–100 mm)
![Page 27: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
PISTON STROKE
Distance the piston moves from top dead center (TDC) to bottom dead center (BDC)
Crankshaft journal offset (throw) controls the piston stroke
![Page 28: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
MAIN CALCULATIONS
This is the main formula to be used with the given numbers
But also: Crankshaft Offset*2 = stroke
![Page 29: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Bore/Stroke Ratio
Bore – to –Stroke Ratio
![Page 30: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
COMPRESSION RATIO Compares the cylinder volume with the piston at TDC to the cylinder volume with the piston at
BDC
Ratio of swept volume V1 divided by combustion chamber volume V2
Clearance volume = combustion chamber volume
![Page 31: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Compression Ratio
![Page 33: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Compression Ratio – Gasoline Engine
![Page 34: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Compression Ratio – Diesel Engine
![Page 35: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Volumetric Efficiency
• Simply put, it is the ability of the engine to breath in on the Intake Stroke
Formula:
Volumetric Efficiency =
actual volume of air taken into each cylinder
volume of the cylinder
Ratio of air drawn into the cylinder and the maximum amount of air that could enter the cylinder
![Page 36: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Volumetric Efficiency
Engines are capable of only 80–90% volumetric efficiency. Restrictions in the ports and around the valves limit airflow. Can you name some of the factors that would impede air flow into and engine?
![Page 37: Aicraft Reciprocant Engines Week 5 and 6](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/577ccf081a28ab9e788eb5c7/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Exercises Examples
If one piston displaces 25 cu. in. and the engine has four cylinders, what is the engine displacement?
25 cu. in. 4 = 100 cu. in.
If one piston displaces 500 cc and the engine has six cylinders, what is the engine displacement?
500 cc 6 = 3000 cc = 3.0 L
