Piston
The piston is the reciprocating motion in the cylinder body of the automobile engine.The basic structure of piston can be divided into top, head and skirt.The top of the piston is the main part of the combustor, and its shape depends on the combustor form chosen.Most gasoline engines use flat-top piston, which has the advantage of small heat absorption area.Diesel engine piston roof often has a variety of pits, the specific shape, location and size must be in accordance with the diesel engine mixture formation and combustion requirements.
