    The document discusses two types of six-stroke engines: the Crower engine which adds a steam power and exhaust stroke, and the Velozeta engine which replaces the exhaust with an air injection and exhaust stroke. It provides details on the working principles, modifications from a four-stroke engine, analysis of fuel flow rate, thermal efficiency and brake specific fuel consumption, as well as advantages and disadvantages. The presentation was guided by Dr. Sanju S. on the design and thermal analysis of six-stroke engines.

    INTRODUCTION 2

     The term six stroke engine describes two different


    approaches in the internal combustion engines, to
    improve its efficiency and reduce emissions.
    CROWER SIX STROKE ENGINE 3

    WORKING PRINCIPLE:
     The six strokes included in the crower’s engine are:

    1. Intake stroke
    2. Compression stroke
    3. Power stroke
    4. Exhaust stroke
    5. Steam power stroke
    6. Steam exhaust stroke

    STROKE
     HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
    This system utilizes the waste heat from the burnt fuel and
    exhaust steam. Water tank is placed inside the recovery tank. At same
    time the exhaust burnt gases and the steam passes through this tank
    and there by continuously transferring the heat to the water before
    injecting it to the cylinder.
    VELOZETA SIX STROKE ENGINE 8

    WORKING PRINCIPLE
     All the first 4-strokes are carried in the same way as the crower
    engine.
     The difference is carried out at the last two strokes of the
    combustion process.
     At the 5th stroke pure air is injected into the cylinder and pulls down
    the piston.
     After expansion, outlet valve is opened and air is pushed out by the
    piston.
    WORKING PRINCIPLE 9

    ➢ During 5th stroke, exhaust valve remains open and


    main reed valve closes. Fresh air from air filter enter
    into cylinder through secondary reed valve
    through secondary air induction line. Here, piston
    move from TDC to BDC.

    ➢ During 6th stroke, air sucked into the cylinder during


    5th stroke is removed through exhaust manifold by
    opening main reed valve. At this time secondary reed
    valve will be closed.

    STROKE
    SECONDARY AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
     It supplies air which is used in 5th and 6th stroke.
     During 5th stroke air is sucked into the cylinder through secondary
    reed valve in the air induction line.
     In 6th stroke main reed valve opens and mixture of air and unburned
    gases are pushed out.

    STROKE
    CAM LOBES
     360 degrees of cam has divided into 60 degrees among six strokes.
     Inlet valve is opened in 1st stroke only and the exhaust valve in 4th,
    5th and 6th strokes by exhaust valve cam.
     The exhaust valve cam is double lobed.

    ANALYSIS 12

    FUEL FLOW RATE


    The amount of fuel flow to the engine per unit time is called fuel flow
    rate.

    As the diagram shows the fuel flow rate of 6 stroke is 40-50% lesser than
    conventional 4 stroke
    ANALYSIS 13

    THERMAL EFFICIENCY
    The thermal efficiency of the engine is the power produced by the
    engine to the power available from fuel.

    The thermal efficiency of 4 stroke lies between 20-30% whereas in 6 stroke


    it lies between 30-45%.
    ANALYSIS 14

    BRAKE SPECIFIC FUEL CONSUMPTION


    It is the ratio of fuel consumption per second to the brake power.

    Brake specific fuel consumption of 6 stroke engine is much lower than the
    conventional 4 stroke.
    ADVANTAGES 15

     Reduction in fuel consumption by at least 40%


     Dramatic reduction in pollution up to 65%
     High thermal efficiency
     Lower engine temperature
     Due to more air intake, cooling system is improved
    DISADVANTAGES 16

     There are chances of entry of water in the fuel


     Engine size and weight increases due to additional components
     In cold regions, anti-freezing measures would be needed in the
    water reservoir
     Complex head design
     Complex cam design for exhaust(due to two exhaust strokes)
     Manufacturing cost is higher
    CONCLUSION 17

    Six stroke engine has many advantages like high thermal


    efficiency, low fuel consumption, low emission. However
    drawbacks like initial starting problem, availability of water
    are also associated. The starting problem can be
    eliminated by using heater or glow plug and coupling a dc
    motor as prime mover to the engine. Now a days research
    and experiments are going on to modify the engine further
    and to make it for practical purpose.
