Ozone depletion cause

When refrigerant like cfc's, R11, R12,R22 etc leaks to the atmosphere it rises and comes in contact with ultra violet rays and gets broken into chlorine atom .
When chlorine atom attacks ozone layer it forms chlorine monoxide .
And the remaining single oxygen atom attacks the chlorine monoxide to form oxygen molecule . And it releases the chlorine atom which further breaks the ozone .

As shown in the reaction given below

Wire drawing effect

Wire drawing effect : It is erosion or scoring of valve seat and disc material of the valve . Causes : 1. Due to differential pressure across the valve . 2. Thermal and mechanical damages . Effects : Valve is unable to isolate the line and fails in sealing . Gas and liquid will leak from the wire and scratch like groove .

Cross and loop scavenging Disadvantage

Cross scavenging Disadvantage 1. It requires longer  piston skirt to prevent exhaust gas and air leaks from the ports when piston is at TDC . Loop scavenging Disadvantage 1. Both exhaust port and scavenge port are at the adjacent side of the liner which causes temperature differential problem for the liner material . Hence , we are using mostly the uniflow scavenging which is having very lesser mixing and better scavenging efficiency. Source : DA Taylor
