Explain the Piston rings and function

Question

Accepted Answer

Piston rings are components in an engine that seal the combustion chamber and prevent leakage of gases.

Piston rings are circular metal rings that fit into grooves on the outer diameter of the piston.
They provide a seal between the piston and the cylinder wall, preventing the combustion gases from leaking into the crankcase.
Piston rings also help to regulate the oil distribution on the cylinder walls, ensuring proper lubrication.
They assist in transferring heat from the piston to the cylinder wall, preventing overheating.
Piston rings help to maintain compression within the combustion chamber, ensuring efficient combustion and power output.
Examples of piston rings include compression rings, oil control rings, and scraper rings.
