Intake, compression, power/combustion, exhaust.
Same as a standard SI (Spark Ignition)
CI (Combustion Ignition) is how diesel operates. They contain no spark plugs.
The compression heats the fuel to the point of SELF COMBUSTION .

What is SI engine and CI engine?
An SI engine is a spark ignition engine. A CI engine is a compression ignition engine. SI engines use spark plugs to ignite fuel in the combustion chamber. CI engines use compression in the combustion chamber to ignite the fuel.
Whats the meaning of CI in Ci engines?
The CI stands for compression-ignition engine also known as a diesel engine. The CI engine is classified as an internal combustion engine.
What are si and ci engines?
SI engine means Spark Ignition Engine where combustion products(air,fuel)are ignited in combustion chamber by means of spark from spark plug which is located on cylinder head..CI engine means Compression Ignition Engine,here combustion is take place by means of compression..
Where is fuel and air mixed in an engine on a newer car?
Mixing of fuel and air depends on type of the engine whether SI or CI. In carburetted versions of SI engines the charge mixes in the carburetion chamber and the mixture is let into the engine. There are direct injection SI engines(GDI) where the injection takes places at various stages of charge compression stroke. In CI engines the fuel is mixed with air in the combustion chamber itself. It is to be borne in mind that these mixing phenomenon are the same be it a new or old car.
Are Gasoline engines and diesel engines external or internal combustion engines?
They are both internal combustion engines
Are both Gasoline and diesel engines classified as external combustion engines?
No, they are both internal combustion engines.
Which type of engine is classified as internal combustion?
Reciprocating engines (piston engines) are internal combustion engines. Rotary engines ( Wankel engine) is also an internal combustion engine. In general, all types of engines in which the combustion chamber is an integrating part of the engine is considered a internal combustion engine.
What is the ci engines?
compression ignition
What is the definition of CI engine?
Combustion ignition engine
Why si engines are quantity governed engines and ci engines are quality govrned?
All engine are whether CI or SI are quantity governed. what is quality governed?? You have discovered it or wht??
Why CI engines are used in trucks and other heavy vehicles but not why SI engine?
Compression ignition (CI) engines use diesel is as the fuel, while spark ignition (SI) engines use petrol. SI engines are lightweight and achieve high speeds while diesel CI engines although heavier and slower engines, are more robust and have a higher thermal efficiency. Their robust build (and fewer parts) makes diesel CI engines ideal for heavy machinery.
What type of cars use internal combustion engines?
Gasoline and Diesel engines are internal combustion engines. The fuel explodes (combusts) internally (in the cylinder) and releases energy that is used to move the vehicle. Electric engines and steam engines are not internal combustion engines by definition. Steam engines combust their fuel externally to the "engine". The vast majority of passenger vehicles produced throughout history are driven by internal combustion engines.
