  2. Engine configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_configuration

    It is called a straight engine (or 'inline engine') when the cylinders are arranged in a single line. Where the cylinders are arranged in two or more lines (such as in V engines or flat engines), each line of cylinders is referred to as a 'cylinder bank'. The angle between cylinder banks is called the 'bank angle'.

  3. Straight engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight_engine

    A straight engine is easier to build than an equivalent flat engine or V engine, as it uses one cylinder head rather than two. Inline engines are also narrower than flat engines or V engines; however, they are longer and can be taller. The engine balance characteristics of a straight engine depend on the number of cylinders and the firing interval.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inline_engine_(aeronautics)

    A Junkers Jumo 222 multibank aviation engine, four cylinders per bank. Inline Radial: Multiple bank engines, usually liquid-cooled, with an odd number of banks (three or more) arranged around a common axis and/or driving a common crankshaft with more than 180° between first and last banks, (e.g. air-cooled Armstrong Siddeley Deerhound, liquid ...

  5. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    A simple three-into-one exhaust for each cylinder bank provides uniform scavenging, since the engine is effectively behaving like two separate straight-three engines in this regard. Primary reciprocating plane and rotating plane imbalances are present due to the distance along the crankshaft between opposing cylinders.

  7. Firing order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firing_order

    For this inline-4 engine, 1-3-4-2 could be a valid firing order.. The firing order of an internal combustion engine is the sequence of ignition for the cylinders.. In a spark ignition (e.g. gasoline/petrol) engine, the firing order corresponds to the order in which the spark plugs are operated.

  9. Straight-four engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-four_engine

    A straight-four engine (also referred to as an inline-four engine) is a four-cylinder piston engine where cylinders are arranged in a line along a common crankshaft. The majority of automotive four-cylinder engines use a straight-four layout [ 1 ] : pp. 13–16 (with the exceptions of the flat-four engines produced by Subaru and Porsche) [ 2 ...
