  2. Piston ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_ring

    A piston ring is a metallic split ring that is attached to the outer diameter of a piston in an internal combustion engine or steam engine. The main functions of piston rings in engines are: Sealing the combustion chamber so that there is minimal loss of gases to the crank case.

  3. Break-in (mechanical run-in) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Break-in_(mechanical_run-in)

    The goal of modern engine break-ins is the settling of piston rings into an engine's cylinder wall. A cylinder wall is not perfectly smooth but has a deliberate slight roughness to help oil adhesion. As the engine is powered up, the piston rings between the pistons and cylinder wall will begin to seal against the wall's small ridges. [1]

  4. Component parts of internal combustion engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Component_parts_of...

    A piston is a component of reciprocating engines. It is located in a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. Its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. In two-stroke engines the piston also acts as a valve by covering and uncovering ports in the cylinder ...

  5. Piston - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston

    A slipper piston is a piston for a petrol engine that has been reduced in size and weight as much as possible. In the extreme case, they are reduced to the piston crown, support for the piston rings, and just enough of the piston skirt remaining to leave two lands so as to stop the piston rocking in the bore.

  6. Reciprocating engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_engine

    Ray-traced image of a piston engine. There may be one or more pistons. Each piston is inside a cylinder, into which a gas is introduced, either already under pressure (e.g. steam engine), or heated inside the cylinder either by ignition of a fuel air mixture (internal combustion engine) or by contact with a hot heat exchanger in the cylinder (Stirling engine).

  7. Crankcase dilution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_dilution

    The job of the piston compression ring is to keep the oil and the exhaust gases from entering the crankcase, but when there is too much wear it can no longer do its job. Other than the piston rings, “blow-by” gases can push the fuel oil past the rings and into the crankcase. [1] “Blow-by” gases are a mix of fuel oil and exhaust gases ...

    Dealers will replace the engine free of charge, federal safety regulators said, and also install piston-ring sensing noise software free of charge. Notification letters are expected to be mailed ...

  9. Radial engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_engine

    Whenever a radial engine remains shut down for more than a few minutes, oil or fuel may drain into the combustion chambers of the lower cylinders or accumulate in the lower intake pipes, ready to be drawn into the cylinders when the engine starts. As the piston approaches top dead center (TDC) of the compression stroke, this liquid, being ...
