ABSTRACT
The quest for an engine which having the same or more power with higher fuel
efficiency than the existing ones has started before many years. As a result of all
these researches a new engine concept is formed, which is a six stroke engine. Lot
of research works are conducting on this topic nowadays and already six types of
six stroke engines were discovered yet. Of these the resent developed three six
stroke engines, i.e., Beare head, Bruce crowers and Velozetas are undergoing
tremendous research works.
During every cycle in a typical four stroke engine, piston moves up and down
twice in the chamber, resulting in four total strokes and one of which is the power
stroke that provides the torque to move the vehicle. But in a six stroke engine there
are six strokes and out of these there are two power strokes. The automotive
industry may soon be revolutionized by a new six-stroke design which adds a
second power stroke, resulting in much more efficiency with less amount of
pollution.
