Introduction
Reciprocating engines is a well-known technology which can be used in automobiles, trucks, construction equipment, marine propulsion, and backup power applications. It involves the expansion of hot gases to push a piston within a cylinder, converting the linear movement of the piston into the rotating movement of a crankshaft to generate power. While the steam engines that powered the industrial revolution were driven by externally-produced steam, modern reciprocating engines used for electric power generation are internal combustion engines in which an air-fuel mixture is compressed by a piston and ignited within a cylinder. Reciprocating internal combustion (IC) engines are characterized by the type of combustion: spark-ignited (SG) or compression-ignited, also known as diesel.
