    Water inject six stroke

    engine

    ABSTRACT

    One of the most difficult challenges in engine technologytoday is the urgent need to increase engine thermal

    efficiency.

    In the first approach, the engine captures the heat lost from

    the four-stroke Otto cycle or Diesel cycle and uses it to

    power an additional power and exhaust stroke of the piston

    in the same cylinder.

    The pistons in this type of six-stroke engine go up and downsix times for each injection of fuel.

    Fresh water is injected into the cylinder after the exhaust

    stroke and is quickly turned to superheated steam, which

    causes the water to expand to 1600 times its volume and

    forces the piston down for an additional stroke.

    A cooling system also serves to maximize volumetric charge

    efficiency by reducing the temperature of the charge duringintake.

    This design also claims to reduce fuel consumption by 40%.

    INTRODUCTION

    A six stroke engine describes a number of different

    approaches in the internal combustion engine to capture the

    waste heat from the four stroke engine and use it to power

    an additional power and exhaust stroke of the piston.

    In our paper we utilise the waste heat from the exhaust and

    inject the treated water at end of the fourth stroke.

    The water will convert into steam it will give additional

    power stroke of the engine.

    By this additional stroke we can reduce the temperature of

    the engine.

    As well as extracting power, the additional stroke cools the

    engine and removes the need for a cooling system making

    the engine lighter and giving 40% increased efficiency.

    The pistons in a six stroke engine go up and down six times

    for each injection of fuel.

    SIX STROKE ENGINE

    This engine is more efficient and powerful than the existing

    four stroke engines.

    The engine is also having the scope of using heavy fuels and

    bio-fuels.

    The engine with varied thermodynamic cycle of operation

    has better thermodynamic efficiency, reduced fuel

    Consumption, reduced pollution.

    Nearly 40% more fuel efficiency can be obtained

    THE SIX STROKES

    FIRST STROKE

    During the first stroke the inlet

    valve is opened and air or air-fuel mixture is sucked

    into the cylinder.

    SECOND STROKE

    During this stroke air or air fuel

    mixture compressed to the maximum pressure.

    THIRD STROKE

    This is first power stroke of the

    engine. This is given by primary fuel (petrol or diesel

    or LPG). During this stroke all valves are remains

    closed.

    FOURTH STROKE

    During this stroke exhaust valve will

    be opened and burned gases send out to the atmosphere

    through the heat recovery system for warm-up the water.

    FIFTH STROKE

    In this stroke, Water is injected into the

    hot cylinder through the steam valve. By absorbing the

    5/11

    heat from cylinder wall, the steam expands causing the

    piston to move down.

    SIXTH STROKE

    The expanded steam escapes through

    the opened exhaust valve and hence the piston moves

    upward. These exhaust steams also send via heat

    recovery system for warm-up the water.

    VALVES USED IN ENGINES

    Inlet Valve

    Exhaust Valve

    Water injector

    Inlet Valve:

    It opens to supplied fresh air or air-fuel into the

    cylinder.

  • 8/3/2019 Water Inject Six Stroke Engine123 (1)

    7/11

    Exhaust Valve:

    It opens to remove the burned gases and steam

    from the cylinder.

    Water injector:

    It opens to inject the water into the cylinder

    with high pressure.

    HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM

    8/11

    The main objective of this paper is to utilise the heat from

    exhaust by a system called heat recovery system

    This system utilise the waste heat from the burned fuel and

    exhaust steam

    Water tank is placed inside the recovery tank

    At same time the exhaust burned gas and steam are going

    through this tank continuously heat the water before

    injecting it to the cylinder

    MODIFICATION OF MATERIAL

    Since minimum cooling surface is necessary for high

    efficiency engine operation

    The heat of combustion chamber should be retained and

    should not be rejected to a cooling system if possible

    The piston, cylinder and cylinder head can either be coated

    with a thermally insulating material like zirconium or they

    can be comprised of a thermally insulating ceramic like

    silicon nitride.

    SOME FACTS ABOUT SIX-STROKE ENGINE

    The water enters only when the temperature inside the

    cylinder reaches above 250oC.

    The water cannot enter the spark plug, because of high

    temp.

    The cylinder will not get rusted because engine will run for15-30 sec before it shuts down.

    Distilled water in order to avoid corrosion.

    The heat from the exhaust (both Steam and burnt gases) is

    reused to heat the water to produce steam.

    The six-stroke engine does not require any basic

    modification to the existing engines. All technologicalexperience and production methods remain unaltered.

    It can be working under multi fuel.

    ADVANTAGES

    It is having high efficiency compared to 4-stroke or 2-stroke

    engine.

    Improves a typical engines fuel consumption.

    No cooling system required.

    The weight and power loss of most conventional cooling

    system parts such as the fan, radiator and coolant pump can

    be eliminated.

    High Mechanical efficiency.

    Physical engine size reduction.

    The higher percentage of power strokes may allow lower

    working speeds, with higher torque output at lower and

    broader rpm ranges.

    Reduced exhaust emissions per a given power range, COcan

    reduce up to 65%

    CONCLUSION

    A good engine needs high efficiency, high

    performance characteristics, low emission

    standards.

    It seems that the above mentioned solution

    meets all these specified standards.

    This engine is reducing fuel consumption and

    pollution without affecting performances

    drastically.

    It has Up to 40% reduction in fuel consumption

    and 60% to 90% in polluting emissions,

    depending on the type of fuel being used.
