This post is useful for the Second year BE-Mechanical Engineering Students for the subject ME 6404-Thermal Engineering as well as for the students of Automobile Engineering.


For Mechanical, Production, Automobile Engineers must know about the working principle of an Engine. How does combustion takes place. For that I have post the working of four stroke diesel engine which may be easy to understand.


I hope you can better understand about working principle of four stroke petrol engines which based on Otto Cycle.


The compression ratio of Petol engines in the range of 7-10 meanwhile the compression ratio of Diesel engine ranges between 16-20.
Stroke is nothing  but the piston movement from the top dead centre (TDC) to the Bottom dead Centre (BDC).


The suction stroke is the first stroke of an any engine. Here the Air-fuel mixture in correct proportions from the carburetors is suck to an engine.


Here is the second stroke of the petrol engine.At completion of this stroke in an engine there is a high pressure and tempaerature of spark will be produced.


This is the power stroke of an engine. The power can be developed during this stroke.At this stroke both inlet valve and echaust valve should closed. Then only complete combustion will takes place in an engine.




The exhaust stroke is the final stroke of an engine. Here the exhaust emission such as NOx, CO, CO2, Ash content were released through the exhaust line or silencer.

In advanced the three way catalytic converter is most widely used for automobiles. it is like in honeycom structure.The three emissions such CO,HC and NOx of the exhaust can be controlled from the exhaucst link or from the silencer. Thats way we can reduce the air pollution in the surroundings.





This is the working principle of four stroke diesel engine. I hope this post is more useful to you. For all subjects study materials - see the right side of this page.


The components of an Engines, working principle of four stroke diesel engine, spark ignition engines, Compression ignition engines and many other useful study materials were uploaded regularly for the benefits of students whom were studying mechanical, Production and Automobile Engineering.

For more study materials such as university questions, 2marks with answers and 16 marks with answers,question bank, syllabus, etc,.
