The document discusses a seminar report on split-cycle engines. It introduces split-cycle engines which separate the four strokes of a typical engine into two cylinders, with one for intake and compression and the other for power and exhaust. The document outlines the basics, how it works, advantages of introducing supercharging, advantages and disadvantages of split-cycle engines.

ABSTRACT

The split-cycle engine is a type of internal combustion engine. In a conventional Otto


cycle engine, each cylinder performs four strokes per cycle: intake, compression, power,
and exhaust. This means that two revolutions of the crankshaft are required for each power
stroke. The split-cycle engine divides these four strokes between two paired cylinders: one
for intake/compression, and another for power/exhaust. Compressed air is transferred from
the compression cylinder to the power cylinder through a crossover passage. Fuel is then
injected and fired to produce the power stroke.Split-cycle engines separate the four strokes
of intake, compression, power and exhaust into two separate but paired cylinders. The first
cylinder is used for intake and compression. The compressed air is then transferred through
a crossover passage from the compression cylinder into the second cylinder, where
combustion and exhaust occur. A split-cycle engine is really an air compressor on one side
with a combustion chamber on the other
