Q. A single cylinder four stroke engine is rotating at 2000 rpm, The number of power strokes occurring in one minute

A
500
B
2000
C
1000
D
4000
Solution:
  • In 4 stroke engine one cycle complete in two revolutions.
  • In one cycle only one combustion takes place. Hence number of power strokes = 2000/2 = 1000.
  • The combustion stroke is the third phase, where the ignited air-fuel mixture expands and pushes the piston downwards. The force created by this expansion is what creates an engine’s power.
