Mechanical efficiency obtained by the new method is compared with that obtained by conventional individual cylinder fuel cut method and a good agreement is achieved.

用这种方法得出的机械效率与用常规的灭缸法得到的机械效率，有很好的一致性。

The final step came when steam was introduced into the cylinder to drive the piston backward as well as forward, thereby increasing the speed of the engine and cutting its fuel consumption.

最后一步是将蒸汽引入气缸，使得活塞前后推动，从而提高了发动机的速度，降低了燃料消耗。

In a diesel engine, there is no spark plug. Instead, diesel fuel is injected into the cylinder, and the heat and pressure of the compression stroke cause the fuel to ignite.

柴油发动机内没有火花塞，取而代之的是将柴油喷入发动机气缸，然后压缩冲程在高温高压下引起燃料点火。

The engines do away with expensive cylinder heads where fuel combustion takes place.
