What else can I help you with?
When air in the cylinder of a diesel engine is compressed it?
it gets hot, and ignites the diesel fuel that is injected by the fuel injectors.
What is the difference between a diesel engine and a petrol engine ignition of mixture?
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
How does diesel engine work?
The diesel fuel, along with fresh air, is put under a great deal of pressure over the piston under the cylinder head. This causes the mixture of fuiel and air to explode and push the piston down. Other then that the operation between a diesel and petrol engine are about the same.Another answerA diesel engine works like a regular gas or petrol engine that uses injectors, except that a diesel engine uses only very high compression to cause the diesel fuel/air mixture to heat up so much that it explodes. Some diesels also have glow plugs which help the diesel fuel/air mixture ignite while the engine is cold.A gasoline engine does not use such very high compression to ignite the fuel/air mixture. It uses a spark plug.A diesel engine is very similar to a gasoline engine except for one main reason. A 4-stroke gasoline engine first intakes a mixture of air and fuel into the cylinder, compressed by a piston, and then this compressed mixture is ignited by a spark plug which creates a small electrical arch. A diesel engine first intakes just air into the cylinder and is compressed, afterwards the fuel is injected into the compressed air, the heat from the compression of the air ignites the mixture without the use of a spark plug.
Why diesel engine has volumetric efficiency greater than gasoline engine?
In diesel engine the air is only compressed in compression stroke and then diesel is entered .......so only small amount of fuel is consumed then petrol engine which take lot amount of fuel.......
How is the engine ignited?
A petrol engine is ignited by a spark plug, and a diesel engine is ignited by the heat produced from the air/ fuel mixture being compressed in the cylinder

What is the key difference between the piston action of an internal combustion engine and that of a compressed-air engine?
The internal combustion engine uses a fuel i.e petrol or diesel to cause compression when ignited ,when the fuel burns it causes compression of the piston. A compressed air engines power comes from an electric motor which forces the piston up and down to produce compressed air.
What makes a Diesel engine fire?
Combustion of instantly compressed diesel vapour or gas
Can diesel oil be used in a petrol engine under a lean air fuel mixture?
No. Diesel must be compressed quite a bit more than gasoline to achieve combustion.
Diesel engines parts and their function?
engine block, it's function is to carry the engine or where the cylinder head set, piston, it;s function is to compressed the air and fuel.
What is the difference between diesel fuel and diesel?
Diesel is a type of internal combustion engine wherein the fuel is ignited solely by heat produced by rapid compression of the air in the cylinder. Not by an electrical spark as in a gasoline engine. As the cyl air is compressed the air becomes heated. Fuel is injected into the hot cylinder and is ignited by the heat alone
