Abstract

ABSTRACT
In six stroke engine, there are additional two strokes, namely another power and
exhaust strokes. The engine works through harnessing wasted heat energy created
by the fuel combustion. After the combustion stage water is injected into the superheated
cylinder. The water explodes into steam and force the piston down. It in turn
helps to cool the engine. That resulted in normal levels of power but using much less
fuel. It also has the advantage of not requiring an external cooling system. In order to
achieve these benefits, major modifications of conventional internal combustion
engine must be done. In this paper the modification of the conventional four stoke
internal combustion engine is illustrated to convert it into six stroke engine.
