Horsepower rating of 64 olds 330?
Low compression, 2bbl carb = 230 hp High compression, 4bbl carb = 290 hp 1964 442 330 engine = 310 hp
High Compression ratio not used in spark ignition engine?
S.I Engine lower compression Ratio is 6 to 11
A compression-ignition engine uses?
The heat from compression is so high that the fuel will auto-ignite when injected.
A smoothly operating engine depends high compression?
It depends on equal compression between all cylinders.
What is the compression ratio of a diesel engine?
The compression ratio of a Diesel ranges from 14:1 to as high as 25:1. I agree just depends on engine.
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
Which engine has highest compression ratio?
the diesel engine. it takes one ignition to start, then it runs off of (autoignition) ignition from heat caused by high compression. compression ignition (autoignition) causes ignition to happen a little earlier than spark ignition engines (gas engines) which is less vulnerable to risk of engine knocking or wasted power when dealing with high compression. -maddmatt
Which engine type relies on heat compression to ignite the fuel?
Diesel engines rely on heat and high compression to ignite fuel.
Does higher octane produce higher co?
Higher octane is helpful for high compression engines. High compression causes the combustion to take place faster and can cause pinging and a loss of power. By using high octane with high compression you get the advantage of the extra efficiency of the high compression engine and the delivery of the combustion across the power stroke of the piston, with out pinging.
Why there is spark plug in petrol engine and not in diesel engine?
Because a diesel engine doesn't need spark to ignite the fuel. Diesels are very high compression engines, and the high compression makes enough heat to ignite the fuel. To prevent the fuel from igniting prematurely, it is injected only after the valves have closed and the piston is near the top of the compression stroke. Once the fuel is injected, the heat from the compression ignites it instantly.
What happens when oil is mixed with oxygen under pressure?
If the compression is high enough you get a diesel engine.
Should supercharged a motor be low compression or high?
The more boost you use the lower compression you want. Higher compression with boost leads to detonation which leads to excess engine wear and damage.
