The internal combustion engine is the most common engine found in mechanical devices across the world. The engine is powered by an air/gasoline mixture and the physics principles of heat and pressure.
Overviewedit
Inertial supercharging effect is the result of incoming fuel/air charge developing momentum greater than intake stroke would generate alone. It is achieved by the careful design of the shape of the piston head, the valves and cam profile/valve timing which creates a vacuum that pulls more exhaust gases (and some of the intake gasses) out of the engine. This is immediately followed by a reflected pressure wave timed to force the extra intake gasses back into the cylinder, thus achieving a greater mass of air/fuel mix in the combustion chamber than possible with conventional methods. Expansion chambers only work well at a narrow engine speed range which is why two stroke engines are referred to as having a "powerband". Since the early 1980s exhaust powervalves have been developed which have the effect of altering the timing and/or volume of the expansion chamber, greatly improving the spread of power of high output two stroke engines.[2]
The idea behind this effect is that if more pressure is created within the cylinder, the faster the piston will be able to move.[1] The volumetric efficiency is maximized to increase the amount of air/fuel mixture in the cylinder during each cycle.[3] In turn, a greater air/fuel mixture in a cylinder will create a greater pressure therefore exerting a greater force on the piston. This increased force on each individual piston increases the potential horsepower of the entire engine.[4] The timing of the opening and closing of the valves is essential to ensure the air in the cylinder is maximized to create the most power in each cycle.[5]
