Development and Modification of 2-Stroke IC Engine

Abstract

Today world is concerned more about saving the environment, everywhere precautionary measures have been taken up to reduce pollution. Major amount of air pollution is caused by mechanical animals running on roads; they contribute to most of the air pollution, hence, engineers today to focus on how to build an eco-friendly engine which can reduce the pollution caused by vehicles. A compressed air engine works on air as fuel to drive the pistons and produce mechanical output without causing any harm to the environment. The engine takes in compressed air instead of using traditional fuels such as petrol diesel etc. Here, this compressed air engine takes the intake of air from the vertically above the piston head. The design of the camshaft has been changed to alter the timing of the valves. It is found that, experimental speed of 60 km/h was achieved by the use of this engine which is better than other works produced on the same topic. It is also efficient as the pollution caused is zero. It is efficient then electrically operated vehicles Hence, this engine can prove to be very successful and sustainable in future.
