Does air support combustion?
Yes, combustion requires oxygen which is found in air.
Why excess air is provided for combustion?
To ensure complete combustion of the fuel used, combustion chambers are supplied with excess air. Excess air increase the amount of oxygen and the probability of combustion of all fuel
How can combustion take place?
Combustion , or the ignition of the fuel-air mixture , occurs within the engine's piston cylinders ~ see related link below to a video tutorial .
What will happen if the air is limited during the combustion?
If limited then combustion is reduced, if totally restricted then there's no combustion at all
Is more oxygen used in an incomplete combustion than a complete combustion?
More oxygen is used in a complete combustion.
Why higher density air is better for combustion?
The higher the air density, the more oxygen available for combustion.
Do cylinders use a heat sink?
An internal combustion engine
What is supercharger?
A supercharger, basically feeds more air into the cylinders to drive the pistons, so more combustion with the fuel is possible, and therefore more power. It is driven mechanically (directly from the engine) so it works straight way, opposed to a turbocharger which works from the exhaust pressure, and suffers 'turbo lag'. A supercharger is a device that makes the pressure of the fuel-air mixture in an internal combustion engine go up. A supercharger allows the engine to be more efficient.

What is combustion and how does it effect the carbon cycle?
combustion is the process of burning something. It adds a lot more carbon to the air.
What is the purpose of a Chevy Intake Manifold?
Chevy Intake Manifolds are used in the internal combustion engine of Chevrolet vehicles. It aids in providing fuel and air to the cylinders of the car.
How you can now if the engine is internal combustion or external combustion while it is not working?
By looking at the build of it. If it's a gas turbine, jet engine, ramjet, or rocket motor, then it's not internal combustion. If it uses pistons in enclosed cylinders, then the combustion occurs internally, within the engine housing. Hence, that would be an internal combustion motor. a reciprocating steam engine is external combustion even though it has enclosed cylinders
What is the material measured in liters in engine?
It is not material, it is the volume of all the combustion cylinders.
Why does 1993 ford ranger have 8 plug wires?
Then it has a V-8 swapped into it. More likely it is stock that is how they came with the 4 cylinders. they fire in sequence for more complete combustion.
Does air support combustion?
Yes, combustion requires oxygen which is found in air.
What is the carburetor?
It's a device that mixes fuel and air prior to the engine pulling the mixture into the cylinders for combustion. The carburetor also allows the vehicle operator to control the power/speed of the engine by controlling the amount of air that is allowed into the engine.
Is the internal combustion engine's fuel burns outside the engine in chambers called cylinders?
Internal combustion refers to an engine were the combustion process takes place inside the engine. The cylinders in question are an internal portion of the cylinder block which houses the crankshaft, connecting rods and the pistons which move up and down in the cylinder drawing in the air fuel mixture, are forced down by the combustion process, and push the spend fuel charge out of the cylinder at the end of the cycle. An example of an external combustion engine would be a steam engine where the combustion takes place in a boiler external to the engine and the steam generated by the boiler is used to motivate the engine.
