How does an aircraft reciprocating engine works?
A 'reciprocating engine' is just another name for a piston engine as opposed to a jet. Technically, the engine works just like the one in your car, with a piston moving in and out of a cylinder. The difference may be that the aircraft engine may have it's cylinders arranged in a circle ( radial engine) but the action is just the same.

The difference between a single-acting and an opposed piston engine?
An opposed piston engine is a single-acting engine. All modern gasoline and diesel engines are single-acting. The single-acting engine receives force on one side of the piston, and relies on the engine to push the piston back the other way. On an opposed engine like a Continental or Lycoming, the piston on the other side of the engine will do the pushing. A double-acting engine, which almost always means a steam engine, receives force on both sides of the piston. Since they run horizontally, when the piston is to the right the engine will send steam to push it to the left and when it's to the left the engine will send steam to push it to the right. A slide valve decides which side of the piston the steam will go to.
