Can you make a diesel engine which works on the basic principle of petrol engine or you can say it uses diesel as a fuel but works on the principle of petrol engine?
No, a diesel is a compression firing engine and a petrol is a spark firing engine. Diesel fuel will not burn in a petrol engine with spark plugs.
Why compression ratio of petrol enine is 8 where as diesel engine is 22?
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
How can you convert petrol engine in into diesel engine?
You can convert a petrol engine into a diesel engine by changing the fuel injectors. The fuel filters will also need to be changed.
Will a petrol engine run on diesel?
NO!
What is the typical compression in a diesel engine verses a petrol engine?
2.5 liter Petrol 8-1 diesel 25-1 compression
What is meant by the term clearance volume of an engine?
Clearance volume usually refers to the volume above the piston(to the top of the block) if the piston is receased( .30'' in the hole). + vavle relief in cc's+ the volume of the head gasket.
What is compression ratio in ic engine?
This is the ratio between the total volume to the clearance volume in IC engines
Is turbo engine in petrol successful?
Yes. More power out of the same engine volume, cleaner burn.
What is clearance volume of engine?
The volume between the engine head and piston when the piston is in the head dead center piston R - is expressed in cubic inches
What is a compression ratio?
Compression Ratio is the ratio between the original volume and the compressed volume in combustion chamber. The compression ratio is denoted as CR. It is the measure of how much air-fuel mixture is compressed during the compression stroke in the case of the gasoline engine (in the case of the diesel engine only air is compressed. Compression ratio is found by dividing the volume of stroke of the cylinder (swept volume) and clearance volume when the piston is at BDC by the volume when the piston is at TDC (ie clearance volume). Compression ratio= (Swept volume + Clearance volume) / Clearance volume. For example engine has a Swept volume of 700 cc. It has clearance volume 50 cc. Compression ratio= (700 + 80) / 80 =9.75: 1 It means Air fuel mixture is compressed to 1/9.75 of its original volume during compression stroke.
The clearance ratio for a single stage compressor?
The ratio of clearance volume and the volume of the compressor
How petrol engines function?
WHAT ARE THE BASIC PARTS OF PETROL ENGINE? HOW DOES PETROL ENGINE WORKS?
What is the valve clearance on a Peugeot 106 1.1 petrol?
valve clearance is... inlet 0.20 exhaust 0.40
What is the gap in spark plug of petrol engine?
There is a gap between the spark plug and the top face of the piston called the clearance volume. It serves 2 purposes. 1. The fuel before and after combustion has to occupy some volume and this is small gap is for that space for it to burn. 2. To avoid unnecessary contact between the piston head and the spark plug.
What is the volume of a petrol tank?
Petrol tanks are NOT a standard size.
What is the effect of clearance volume by increasing or decreasing in a PD compressor power?
clearance volume decreases the volumetric effienfy of compressor.the clearance volume should not be too less or too more.
Valve clearance setting for a scenic 8v engine code 8770203?
Unfortunatly you have quoted the engine number and not the code. All 16 valve engines are hydraulic so no adjustment is possible.
