What phenomenon occurs if petrol is used in diesel engine?
What do you mean phenonmenon? Nothing of a phenomenon occurs. Your engine will simply fail and you will need to get the whole tank cleaned out and system it will cost a fortune. This is why people put diesel stickers on the inside of their petrol cap to remind them. And prob saving them money in the long run!
What are some advantages of diesel power plant over coal power plant?
the compression ignition engine does not require a precise fuel mixture, and so power is controlled by adjusting the fuel flow without throttling the air flow. This (a simplification of course) is a big reason they are more fuel efficient than gasoline (spark ignition) engines. They can also run a wider range (and lower grades) of fuel.
How has the steam engine changed your world?
i believe the steam engine provide faster transportation of goods and people and people could coal mine easier.
How did inventions change people lives?
It improved technology.
Was it a romanian that invented the jet engine?
A Romanian, Henri Coanda, developed an engine in 1910 that was similar to the modern jet engine. Coanda's engine required an external motor in addition to the jet engine so most people accept that his development is not classed as the jet engine that was later developed by Sir Frank Whittle in Britain. Whittle produced the first jet engine that was self supporting and ran without the aid of external equipment.
What did people use before the diesel engine?
Steam engines.
How do you convert from diesel to gas 1982 Monte Carlo?
You'd need to swap in a gas engine. A lot of people believe that the Oldsmobile 5.7 LF9 diesel was a gas engine converted into a diesel - this is simply not true.
Which is a best diesel engine?
I think that the best diesel engine is the Cummin's turbo diesel engine because it has the most powerful and don't think its not because it has six cylinders it has the best acceleration and people use them in all sorts of big rigs and ram 2500s and 3500s.
Can you use diesel engine oil in your petrol car?
Yes you can I know a few people that use a 5W-30 Diesel and a 15W-40 Diesel. Hope This Helps.
Can you put diesel oil in a petrol car?
NO!!! It's not the same kind of engine. A diesel engine has glow plugs, a gasoline engine has spark plugs. A diesel engine ignite the fuel by compression, the gasoline engine ignite it with spark plugs.Some people add a SMALL amount of gasoline to their diesel fuel in the winter when the temperature falls below -20 deg celsius (5 deg below zero F), to prevent the diesel from turning waxy.
Did the diesel engine save people money on gas?
The diesel engine saves a number of people a lot of money on fuel. A diesel is far more efficient. Its problem is that it is not as responsive to the accellerator. Still, locomotives or long haul trucks do not usually need tremendous accelleration. They generally need steady speed. They need distance on the least amount of fuel. For them, the diesel is far better than the otto engine.
Is there an invetion that records people's dreams?
No. If you invent one, you will be one rich dude, though.
Who discovered biofuel?
The history is a little vague; but the two prominent people who first "discovered" and applied bio-diesel were George Washington Carver and Rudolf Diesel. Rudolf Diesel was the creator of the Diesel Engine and he ideally envisioned the diesel engine being used with a bio-fuel source. On a side note, he actually presented a diesel engine running on peanut oil in the Paris Exhibition in 1889. George Washington Carver worked with Henry Ford to create a bio-diesel engine; however, at the time petrol-diesel was more easily accessible and cheaper than to produce a bio-diesel fuel source.
What is so good about diesel engines?
The diesel engine works by compressing the fuel and air mixture inside a piston cylinder. Compressing the mixtures raises its temperature. When the temperature reaches the fuels ignition point, it ignites, explodes and pushes the cylinder back.A gasoline engine works similarly but needs a high voltage spark from an ignition system to ignite the fuel.What is good about the diesel engine:The diesel engine does not need a complex electrical system to keep the engine running.Diesel powered vehicles do use a battery to start the engine turning, once the engine starts it is no longer needed.A diesel engine does not need spark plugs and distributor system to keep running although it does use glow plugs to help it start when the engine is too cold.Diesel engine fuel is cheaper to use than gasoline (petrol). Some people even use home heating oil to power a diesel engine (after passing it through a filter to remove sediment).A diesel engine has a higher compression ratio in the cylinder making it more efficient than a gasoline powered engine.
Can you use 10W-40 engine oil in a ford f350 6.9L diesel engine?
yes most people in the Texas area run 15w-40 it will depend on your weather.
What exactly is biodiesel and what is it used for?
Bio diesel is just a plant based fuel that is used in diesel engines.This is not the cutting edge technology people think it is, Rudolf Diesel originally designed the engine named for him, to run on heated vegetable oil back in 1898.
Can you use gasoline in diesel engine?
We cannot use gasoline in diesel engine. Gasoline will not detonate properly (detonates prematurely) in a Diesel engine rendering the power output at next to nothing.It will also damage the engine and cost of repairing is also very high. True: Diesel engines work by compressing the fuel and don't have spark plugs, they use compression to detonation diesel in the cylinders. However, in colder climates some people add maybe 1/2 gallon of E87 gas to a tank of diesel fuel to help keep the diesel from thickening and moving slower in the fuel lines. Added to a say a f250 or a Silverado fuel tank of 20gln the mix shouldn't effect the engine too much. Replacing glow plugs and fuel filters when the weather becomes more clement as part of a regu;ar service reduces risks of damage
