• Stroke ratio — In a reciprocating piston engine, the stroke ratio, defined by either bore/stroke ratio or stroke/bore ratio, is a term which is used to describe the ratio between the diameter of the cylinder bore and the length of the piston stroke within its… …   Wikipedia

• Stroke (engine) — Reciprocating motion, used in reciprocating engines and other mechanisms, is back and forth motion. Each cycle of reciprocation consists of two opposite motions: there is a motion in one direction, and then a motion back in the opposite direction …   Wikipedia

• Piston motion equations — The motion of a non offset piston connected to a crank through a connecting rod (as would be found in internal combustion engines), can be expressed through several mathematical equations. This article shows how these motion equations are derived …   Wikipedia

• Four-stroke engine — Four stroke cycle used in gasoline/petrol engines. The right blue side is the intake and the left yellow side is the exhaust. The cylinder wall is a thin sleeve surrounded by cooling liquid. A video montage of the Otto engines running at the… …   Wikipedia

• long stroke engine — An engine where the length of the piston stroke is greater than the diameter of the bore of a cylinder. A relatively long stroke produces higher low end torque at the cost of increased piston speeds and reduced revving ability. The opposite is… …   Dictionary of automotive terms

• bore-stroke ratio — The relation between the diameter of the cylinder bore and the length of the stroke of the piston. If the stroke is longer than the cylinder bore diameter then the engine is called a long stroke engine. If the stroke is shorter than the cylinder… …   Dictionary of automotive terms

• 2-stroke power valve system — The 2 stroke power valve system is an improvement to a conventional two stroke engine that gives a high power output over a wider RPM range. Operation of a two stroke engine A stroke is the action of a piston travelling the full length of its… …   Wikipedia
