The Piston Body in an internal combustion engine moves up and down within the cylinder, creating compression, combustion, and power. It forms a tight seal with the cylinder walls, allowing the fuel-air mixture to be compressed and ignited. The resulting explosion from combustion drives the piston body downward, converting the expanding gases into mechanical energy. This motion is transmitted to the engine's crankshaft, generating rotational power. The piston body's reciprocating movement and sealing action are crucial for the efficient operation of the engine, enabling the conversion of chemical energy into useful mechanical work.
Attributes:
• Top surface designed to withstand high temperatures and pressures.
• Lower part providing stability and guiding the piston.
• Engineered to be lightweight yet durable.
Application:
The Piston Body's purpose in an internal combustion engine is to compress the fuel-air mixture, facilitate combustion, and convert the resulting energy into mechanical power.
