Question from the part of the article where the piston is introduced: We know what constrains the up and down positions of the piston; What constrains the direction of rotation of the crank?
- Sharlin 6y agoThe crank's angular momentum, which is originally derived from the turning of the starter motor.
- the__alchemist 6y agoThank you. So the engine can go either way, and the direction is determined by the initial rotation?
- Sharlin 6y agoAs far as I know, yes.
