petrol engine - Fuel and air mixtures together and compressed in engine. These mixtures ignited by Spark plug
Diesel Engine - Air only compressed at high pressure and Temperature. Fuel injected at high temp so that the ignition takes place
Diesel has highest ignition temperature.. So only diesel cant be used in petrol engine
There is no difference. Both are internal combustion engines. I think I know what you're asking though. A gasoline engine uses spark ignition and a diesel engine uses compression ignition. The gasoline engine needs an spark or other heat source to ignite the fuel air mixture in the cylinders. The diesel engine ignites the fuel air mixture by compressing it in the cylinders until it combust's from the heat produced when the cylinder's volume is decreased. In an external combustion engine, the working fluid is heated by burning fuel, then introduced into the expansion chamber to produce power e.g. a steam engine.
Petrol ideal air/fuel mixture is 14.7 to 1. Diesel, ideal fuel/air mixture is 14.6 to 1. As very few engines run at the ideal mixture they are basically both the same.
none
No, diesel fuel is not a mixture of gasoline. Diesel fuel is a specific type of fuel that is heavier and less volatile than gasoline, and is used primarily in diesel engines. Gasoline, on the other hand, is a lighter and more volatile fuel that is used in spark-ignition engines.
The air temperature in a diesel engine cylinder is 1022 F. This will ignite the fuel. the high compression, 22 to1, will light the fuel. A spark engine with a carburetor may "diesel" when the key is turned off because of glowing carbon deposits in the cylinder, self ignition.
The difference between the two is quit small. Normal diesel contains less oil than performance diesel. However, when they are tested side by side, no one can tell the difference of the two.
this vehicle is a diesel and does not have a wiring diagram for the ignition circuits as being a diesel it does not have spark ignition
No, there is no coil or Spark Plugs. Ignition takes place due to heating from compression of the fuel/air mixture. Some diesel engines have a "Glow Plug" for aid to starting in very cold weather.
The main difference between a diesel and a steam engine is the diesel engine is an internal combustion and the steam engine is external combustion.
When the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion
The air and fuel mixture is ignited by the heat created during the compression stage in a compression ignition engine, also known as a diesel engine.
