A recipro-
cating engine has one or more cylinders in which pistons reciprocate back and 
forth. The
 
combustion chamber is located in the closed end of each cylinder. 
Power is delivered to a rotating output
 
crankshaft by mechanical linkage with 
the pistons. Reciprocating engines are classified on the base of position and 
number of cylinders. These are single-cylinder engine, in-line engine, V-type 
engine, opposed-cylinder engine, W-type engine, opposed-piston engine, and 
radial engine. A single-cylinder engine has one cylinder and piston connected 
to the crankshaft. In-Line engine cylinders are positioned in a straight line, 
one behind the other along the length of the crankshaft. In V-type engine, two 
banks of cylinders are at an angle with each other along a single crankshaft, 
allowing for a shorter engine block. Opposed-cylinder engine has two banks 
of cylinders opposite to each other on a single crankshaft. These engines are

often called flat engines. Engines of two different cylinder arrangements have 
been classified as W-type engines in the technical literature. An opposed-pis-
ton engine has two pistons in each cylinder with the combustion chamber in 
the centre between the pistons. Radial engines are engines with pistons posi-
tioned in a circular plane around a circular crankshaft. The connecting rods of 
the pistons are connected to a master rod, which in turn, is connected to the 
crankshaft. 
A rotary engine is made of a large non-concentric rotor with a built-in 
gearwheel, moving around a stationary block (stator). The moving combus-
tion chambers are formed by the corners of the rotor sliding against the inner 
surface of the non-rotating block (housing). A number of experimental engines 
have been tested using this concept, but the only design that has ever become 
common in an automobile is the Wankel engine which has one, two, and three 
rotors.
Вy method of fuel input, spark-ignition engines are divided into four types: 
carburetted engines in which air and fuel are mixed to facilitate the combustion 
process; multipoint port fuel injection engines in which one or more injectors 
at each cylinder intake; throttle body fuel injection engines in which injectors 
upstream in intake manifold; gasoline direct injection engines in which injec-
tors are mounted in combustion chambers with injection directly into cylinders.
By method of fuel input, compression-ignition engines are divided into 
three types: direct injection engines in which fuel is injected into the main 
combustion chamber; indirect injection engines in which fuel is injected into 
the secondary combustion chamber; homogeneous charge compression igni-
tion engines in which well-mixed fuel and oxidizer (typically, air) are com-
pressed to the point of auto-ignition. 
Besides, different kinds of fuel are used in engines: diesel oil, motor oil, 
naphta; kerosene or benzol-oil mixtures; gas, natural gas methane; alcohol-
ethyl, methyl; dual fuel. There are several engines that use a combination of 
two or more fuels. 
Several or all of these classifications can be used at the same time to iden-
tify a given engine. Thus, a modern engine might be called a reciprocating, 
spark-ignition, four-stroke cycle, I-head, water-cooled, gasoline, multipoint 
port fuel injection automobile engine.
