A diesel engine (also known as a compression-ignition engine and sometimes capitalized as Diesel engine) is an internal combustion engine that uses the heat of compression to initiate ignition to burn the fuel‚ which is injected into the combustion chamber. This is in contrast to spark-ignition engines such as a petrol engine (gasoline engine) or gas engine (using a gaseous fuel as opposed to gasoline)‚ which uses a spark plug to ignite an air-fuel mixture. The engine was developed by Rudolf Diesel

combustion of the fuel and air provide impetus to the mobile pistons which reciprocate in cylinders. The pistons are connected to a rotating shaft‚ the crankshaft‚ by means of a connecting rod‚ which is connected at one end to the wrist pin located in the interior of the piston and at the other end to the crank pin of the crankshaft. As the crankshaft rotates through 360 degrees‚ the piston moves from the top of the cylin- TM Copyright n 1999 by Marcel Dekker‚ Inc. All Rights Reserved. der

Introduction We have heard about two and four stroke engines. Two stroke engines got its name from the fact that the required strokes are completed in one revolution. In short there is one power stroke in one revolution. In the case of four stroke engines the four strokes are completed in two revolutions‚ or there is a power stroke in two revolutions. Then how about a six stroke engine. The name of the engine has nothing to do with the number of revolutions or anything of that sort. This engine

Inside this Article Diesel Fuel Injection One big difference between a diesel engine and a gas engine is in the injection process. Most car engines use port injection or a carburetor. A port injection system injects fuel just prior to the intake stroke (outside the cylinder). A carburetor mixes air and fuel long before the air enters the cylinder. In a car engine‚ therefore‚ all of the fuel is loaded into the cylinder during the intake stroke and then compressed. The compression of the fuel/air
