Abstract

In six stroke engine, there are additional two strokes, namely another power andexhaust strokes. The engine works through harnessing wasted heat energy createdby the fuel combustion. After the combustion stage water is injected into the superheatedcylinder. The water explodes into steam and force the piston down. It in turnhelps to cool the engine. That resulted in normal levels of power but using much lessfuel. It also has the advantage of not requiring an external cooling system. In order toachieve these benefits, major modifications of conventional internal combustionengine must be done. In this paper the modification of the conventional four stokeinternal combustion engine is illustrated to convert it into six stroke engine.
