A compression stroke of the piston forces the exhaust gas out through an exhaust port.

At the end of the (downward) power stroke, the piston uncovers an exhaust valve in the bottom of the cylinder and , the higher pressure combustion gases are simply vented to atmosphere. (There's no actual exhaust stroke to push them out).

(Irv S, your explanation is for a 2-stroke petrol (gasoline) engine which uses a spark plug and has a cylinder with a larger volume lower section where the compression of the fuel/air mixture takes place).

In a Detroit Deisel engine-- the 53, 71 and 92 series (the old engines) the exhaust valves open just as the piston passes the port belt on the way down- ending the power stroke- the higher pressure in the air box forces the exhaust gasses out and recharges the cylinder with fresh air- as the piston reachest the top of the port belt- the valves close and the compression begins- fuel is injected just prior to TDC (top- dead center) - the compression pressure has generated a high enough temperature to burn the fuel-- the power srtoke begins.. yadda yadda yadda..

its pretty simple.for practical there is no other way to store exhaust gases in the engine only u need to throw them out.but if u r thinking use in as a cycle mean exaust gases again go to inlet.that what a true diesel cycle.but practially in diesel engine it a somewhat mechanical cycle.the exhaust gases dont have O2.so it can't be burn again.so
its batter we take some fresh air and burn it
rather then use exhause air only
