What are the types of combustion?
There are two main types of combustion. These are complete, in which the reactant burns in oxygen producing a few reactions, such as carbon dioxide and water. Incomplete combustion occurs when there is not enough oxygen to complete a reaction.
Can water be used as fuel in internal combustion engine?
No, water cannot be used as a direct fuel in an internal combustion engine. However, water can be used in a process called electrolysis to produce hydrogen, which can then be used as a fuel source in internal combustion engines.
What gases are formed in internal combustion?
An internal combustion engine uses either petroleum or diesel. In both cases, the main gases produced are the result of burning the hydro-carbons contained in the fuel. The hydrogen burns with oxygen to produce water vapor (H20) The carbon burn with oxygen to produce carbon dixode (CO2) Other elements are burned and produce very small amounts of other gases.
What is the chemical compound that can not mix with water used to store energy?
One example of a chemical compound that cannot mix with water and is used to store energy is gasoline. Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons that is used as a fuel in internal combustion engines to produce energy. Due to its non-polar nature, it does not mix well with water which is a polar solvent.
What are the top 20 uses of combustion in our day-to-day life?
- to run vehicles - to cook food - to light a candle or lamp - to light a matchstick - to destroy organic wastes at home - used in water heaters -that's all what i can think of now......
Latest trends in internal combustion engines?
Getting them to run on water (hydrogen)
Is a boiler an internal combustion engine?
No, a boiler is not an internal combustion engine. A boiler is a closed vessel that uses heat to generate steam or hot water for heating or power. Internal combustion engines, on the other hand, are machines that generate power by burning fuel within a combustion chamber.
What are the types of combustion?
There are two main types of combustion. These are complete, in which the reactant burns in oxygen producing a few reactions, such as carbon dioxide and water. Incomplete combustion occurs when there is not enough oxygen to complete a reaction.
What are some examples of usage?
Home heating, Cooking, Heating water. Fuel for internal combustion engines. To name a few.
Can water be used as fuel in internal combustion engine?
No, water cannot be used as a direct fuel in an internal combustion engine. However, water can be used in a process called electrolysis to produce hydrogen, which can then be used as a fuel source in internal combustion engines.
Why is diesel is an internal combustion engine?
When air is compressed it becomes hot. A diesel engine compresses air and fuel in a cylinder. The mixture burns and pushes down the piston. It is called an internal combustion engine because engines that work by burning fuel inside a cylinder and pushing down a piston are called internal combustion engines. Steam engines are external combustion engines. The fire burns and heats water in a boiler. The water turns to steam and either drives pistons like in a steam locomotive or in a turbine. Gas turbines could technically be called internal combustion but are not. One turbine compresses the gas. The gas burns under pressure in a combustion chamber and turns another turbine. Jet planes and a number of electric generators use gas turbines.
Do cars run with water?
No, cars use internal combustion engines which require a flammable fuel. There is a 50/50 mixture of water and antifreeze use as a coolant in the engine.
How is heat utilised in the field of science and technology to do various work?
Most often by heating water into steam, or by expanding gasses (internal combustion engines).
Heat engines use heat to do work?
Yes. Heat engines come in various forms. For example, internal combustion using gasoline or diesel, external combustion (not much used), steam engines reciprocating or turbine, gas turbines, rocket engines.
The waste products of combustion leave the internal combustion engine through the?
The waste products of combustion leave the internal combustion engine through the exhaust valve.
Why does a water drops come from tailpipe?
Water is a normal result from an internal combustion engine.
Will a bad catalytic converter cause water to run out of the tailpipe?
No. Water is a normal byproduct of the combustion process. It can also be an indication of an internal engine issue such as a failed headgasket.No. Water is a normal byproduct of the combustion process. It can also be an indication of an internal engine issue such as a failed headgasket.
