Why is carburetor used in petrol engine but not in diesel engine?
a petrol engine needs to mix its air and fuel before passing it into the combustion chamber before being ignited diesel has its air mixture heated as the piston compresses it in the combustion chamber then the atomized diesel fuel is injected into the hot air and is ignited.
What device mixes air and petrol for the internalcombustion engine?
The combustion chamber is the primary mixer - its ingredients are injected or inducted by valves and carburettor. These days computers control most compositions mixed in the combustion chamber and analyze the effect of the combustion on the mixtures.
What is homogeneous in a petrol engine?
In a petrol engine, homogeneous refers to a fuel-air mixture that is uniformly mixed before entering the combustion chamber. This ensures efficient combustion and optimal performance. Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines, for example, rely on a homogeneous fuel-air mixture for combustion.
What is the average temperature inside the combustion chamber of an internal combustion petrol engine?
Any where between 1500-3000 Fahrenheit (800-1700 Celsius) Type in "Martin Vagn Hansen thesis" in Google, You will find his thesis on measuring flame temps in IC engines.
Which is more viscous diesel or petrol?
Diesel has a much higher viscosity than petrol (gasoline). It is less refined and contains more oil to lubricate and cool the combustion chamber in a diesel engine.
What is cetane number for petrol?
There is no cetane number for petrol. Cetane is a measurement of Diesel fuel and Octane is a measure of Petrol. Each is a measure of the combustion ability. Cetane is a measure of the amount of time from injection of the fuel into the combustion chamber and the actual ignition of the fuel. Diesel's ignite the fuel through compression and not spark as in a petrol engine.
Why does your bike stall when you give it gas?
The motorbike can only burn so much petrol at a time. To burn petrol it needs to be sprayed as a mist inside the combustion chamber. If you flood the engine it can't burn the petrol so it stalls.
Why petrol engines produce oxides of nitrogen?
Petrol engines produce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) as a byproduct of combustion at high temperatures. Specifically, nitrogen in the air reacts with oxygen in the engine's combustion chamber to form NOx gases. Factors such as high compression ratios and combustion temperatures can contribute to increased NOx emissions from petrol engines.
Detonation of petrol engines?
Detonation is a misused word. Pre-ignition is the common problem which cause mis-timing of the combustion cycle. Pre-ignition occurs from a combination of high heat ignition source, temperature and lean ratio mixes. Detonation has two main features, a) poor combustion design that causes a clash of two flame fronts within the combustion chamber that causes two shock waves to hit each other and creates a destructive force. b) a correct combustion chamber that allows the ultra lean fuel mix to explode omni-direction and consumes all the fuel mixture and then extinguishes itself and thus renders no harm to the engine with the expanding gas as the work loan and the contracting gas as a cooling gas at the end of the cycle. A petrol engine with the correct combustion chamber can run on compression ratios of 20:1 and lean petrol mixes as a detonation engine. The real future of the petrol engine is yet to be produced with extraordinary milage and low pollutants. SCB
Why petrol csnnot be used in diese engine?
The diesel engine is designed to use diesel, which reaches combustion at high (relatively to petrol) pressure and temperature. If petrol is injected into a diesel engine, then combustion will take place in a, very different than it was designed, way, which will eventually destroy the engine. But there are engines that have been designed to burn diesel or petrol. They call them bifuel engines. Old farmer tractors used to have this kind of engines.
When you turn the petrol on on your 150cc quad the combustion chamber fills with petrol flooding the engine the carb has been taken off put back on you don't know if the pipes are the wrong?
Sounds like your float is stuck in the carburetor.
What device mixes air and petrol for the internal combustion engine?
The device that mixes air and petrol for the internal combustion engine is the carburetor. It controls the air-fuel ratio to ensure efficient combustion in the engine.
