There are two types of charging processes-
1.naturally charging:charging at the atmospheric pressure,just by the piston movement,inducing the air inside the cylinder.
2.supercharging:charging the air under pressure.
Nine cubic meters of air is required to burn 1 liter of fuel in a diesel engine. A person does not put liters of air into a diesel engine. Liters of fuel are put into a diesel engine.
Gas 10:1 Diesel 17:1
In a gasoline engine, it is a fuel-air mixture that is drawn in during the intake stroke, unless the engine is fuel injected. In a fuel injected or a diesel engine, it is air, because the fuel (gasoline or diesel) is injected at the "last moment" before ignition.
The diesel engine can operate at 12:1 to 24:1 at idle.
a petrol engine needs to mix its air and fuel before passing it into the combustion chamber before being ignited diesel has its air mixture heated as the piston compresses it in the combustion chamber then the atomized diesel fuel is injected into the hot air and is ignited.
Air lock refers to when a Diesel engine stalls from running out of fuel or a broken line Etc. Air gets into the pump and the engine will not run until fuel is pumped and the air is Bled out.
If the air intahe and exhaust valves were not actuated what damages expected with the diesel engine? The engine is a four stroke marine diesel engine and because of the rocker arm gears broken the valves remained closed and not actuated.
Yes a diesel engine requires a lot more air than a gasoline. The ratio for air to fuel in a gas engine is about 14.7:1. A diesel at idle is about 50:1 and in the higher rpms it can reach 70:1.
to preheat the air
The working fluid in an internal combustion engine like a diesel would simply be the air it sucks in and passes out in the exhaust.
four stroke air-cooled diesel engine
Air can be bland from the diesel fuel system on a Isuzu D-Max 3.0 engine by hooking an air compressor to the fuel line. Loosen the fuel line at the other end of the engine. The air will be removed.
