Answer;

Intake stage of engine operation

Explanation;

  • During the intake stage of engine operation the air that has been mixed with fuel get drawn into the cylinder.
  • During the intake stage of engine operation, the air-fuel mixture is introduced to fill the combustion chamber. This occurs when the piston moves from a point TDC to BDC and also when the intake valve is open.
  • The air-fuel mixture is forced through the open intake by the atmospheric pressure to occupy the low pressure formed by the movement of the piston.
