What is the cylinder arrangement of a multi-cylinder engine?

Introduction of cylinder arrangement of automobile multi-cylinder engine: 1 There are four types, namely: inline engine, V-type engine, horizontally opposed engine engine and W-type engine. In-line engine: all cylinders are arranged side by side on a plane. Advantages: low manufacturing cost, high stability, good low-speed torque characteristics and small size. Disadvantages: too big, not suitable for large displacement vehicles. -Abbreviation: denoted by L, and the following cylinders are engine codes, such as L3, L4, L5 and L6 engines;

2.V-type engine: the cylinders are arranged in a V-shape. It divides all cylinders into two groups, and the included angle between adjacent cylinders is 60-90. Common V-type engines are V6, V8, V 10 and V 12 V, which have the advantages of smooth operation, space saving and convenience for automobile manufacturers to arrange engine compartments. Disadvantages are: compact structure, complicated interior, unfavorable for maintenance and high cost; Horizontally opposed engine: Actually, it is a derivative of V-type engine, and the included angle is 180. The letter "H" is used to represent common four-cylinder engines and six-cylinder engines. Advantages are low center of gravity, small volume, small vibration and high power. Disadvantages are high cost and wide engine.

3.W-type engine: It consists of two V-type engines, so it is represented by W. Advantages of V-type angle 15 (Audi) W-type engine compared with V-type engine: it can make the engine shorter, save space, accommodate more cylinders and have larger displacement. Disadvantages: Excessive width makes the engine compartment crowded, resulting in poor running balance.
