Abstract
In a previous note a method was developed for calculating the exhaust port area for two-stroke cycle engines assuming the cylinder length to be constant. It was pointed out by Williams and Pullman that the effect of the variation in cylinder length was important, this was appreciated in the preparation of the note, but it was necessary to assume a constant length in order to obtain an analytical solution. In this note the method given earlier is extended to cover a cylinder discharging direct to atmosphere with a moving piston.Keywords
