At idle it can be 50 : 1 or even 100:1.
In diesel engine fuel to power ratio is 1:50
because a diesel engine ignites its fuel with pressure, and not with a spark like a petrol engine. that is why a petrol engine does not need as high a compression ratio as a diesel engine
There is no required a/f ratio on a diesel. It can be as low as 100:1 at no load idle.
The diesel engine can operate at 12:1 to 24:1 at idle.
make the fuel sufficient burning
Petrol or gasoline in a diesel will cause internal engine damage. if petrol is used in diesel engine it may cause explosive sound with burning ....bcz high compression ratio ......
Ensures that all the fuel mixes with the air creating a proper air to fuel ratio to produce combustion.
only if it has a diesel engine. A gasoline engine will not run properly on diesel fuel.
Cutoff ratio is not the ratio of the volume of the cylinder at the end of combustion to the start of the combustion process in a diesel engine. actually cutoff ratio means point at which fuel injected for a period and fuel delivery is stopped at required instant -is called cutoff ratio.............
The main difference between diesel motors and petrol motors is in how the fuel is ignited. Gas engines use spark plugs to ignite slightly compressed fuel molecules. Diesel motors use extreme heat and compression to cause the fuel to ignite. For example a petrol engine may have an 8-1 compression ratio and a temp. of 5,000 degrees in the combustion chamer a diesel engine will have a 15-1 ratio and around 15-20,000 degree combustion chamber give or take depending on the engine design. In the end there not that diffrent.
Diesel engines run on diesel fuel. Gasoline will destroy a diesel engine.
Diesel engine runs at a higher compression ratio than a gasoline engine. A typical diesel engine may also use a longer stroke and smaller bore than a gasoline engine. Diesel fuel has a higher energy density than gasoline.
