Who invented the electric spark-ignition engine fueled by coal gas?

A Belgian-born engineer named Jean Joseph Etienne Lenoirinvented a double-acting, electric spark-ignition internal combustion engine fueled by coal gas. He patented it in 1860 and in 1863; he attached an improved/redesigned engine which utilized petroleum as fuel together with a carburetor to a three-wheeled wagon! The three-wheeler managed to complete a fifty-mile road trip.Answered by: Vivek Toshniwal (India)


Why do you get a shock current when pushing a trolley?

There must have been a build up of static electricity, either in yourself or in the trolley. The shock is the spark as it makes its way to earth.


When does electric spark takes place?

in order for electric potential to bridge a gap in an insulating substance, the potential first has to be high enough to ionize the substance. (in air this potential is around 1 million volts per meter) secondly, the energy has to have very few other paths around the gap, otherwise it will just take the less resistive path. once the substance ionizes enough, the electrons in the substance's atoms will go into a higher orbit and turn the atom into a conductor. with a dc current this causes an arc, not a spark. with ac the voltage hits 0, 60 times a second so the spark strikes repeatedly, unless the spark has enough current to stay "hot" through the zero-crossing (as it is called) this last effect is exploited in welding where the voltage is very low but an arc must still form.


Why in petrol engine spark plug is used but not in diesel engine?

Diesel engines run much higher compression than petrol engines. The higher compression makes the air in the cylinder so hot that the fuel self ignites. A petrol engine doesn't get warm enough for self ignition, so you have to add a spark from the spark plug to ignite the fuel.


How many spark plugs there are in six cylinder engine?

There would be six spark plugs for a six cylinder engine. One for each cylinder. Unless it is a diesel, then there are no spark plugs.

What is an ignitor on a gas furnace?

An ignitor on a gas furnace is an electric spark. An electric current is sent along a conductor, when it reaches the end the electric energy jumps across a gap to another conductor. This jumping electricity (think of it as a really tiny lightning bolt) creates a spark hot enough to ignite fuel.


What is the danger of placing flammable items next to a furnace?

If the furnace gets too warm or releases a spark they can catch fire.

What is an electric spark?

An electric spark is a form of electrostatic discharge that happens in the event that an electric field produces an ionized electrically conductive channel that results in emission of light and sound.


Can you turn water into steam with electric spark?

Absolutely. It's the HEAT of the spark that does it. Electric sparks are so hot they'll melt steel.
