Fuel must be atomized before ignition in an engine to ensure efficient combustion. Atomization breaks the fuel into small droplets, increasing its surface area and allowing for better mixing with air. This enhanced mixing promotes a more complete and rapid combustion process, improving engine performance, fuel efficiency, and reducing emissions. Without proper atomization, fuel would burn inefficiently, leading to power loss and increased pollutants.

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.


Fuel must be atomized in the engine for what purpose?

to create fuel


What does the intake valve do?

Intake valve allows the atomized fuel mixture to enter the combustion chamber to be ignited by spark plug creating detonation


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


How fuel is burnt in engine?

Fuel is mixed with air, compressed then ignited.


What is work of injector?

In an internal combustion engine, injectors spray atomized fuel into the combustion chamber


What is fuel rail pressure control valve?

The main function is to spray atomized fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine.


What liquid and gas can create a mixture?

Fuel and air can create a mixture in an internal combustion engine, where the fuel (liquid) is mixed with air (gas) before being ignited to power the engine.


How is diesel fuel ignited in a warm diesel engine?

Compression.


In what type of engine is the air and fuel mixture ignited by the heat created during the compression stage?

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.


In a diesel engine the air fuel mixture is ignited by?

It is ignited by compression. The air fuel mixture is compressed by the piston going up. Some diesels have glow plugs too that heat up the air fuel mixture so it is more easily ignited.


When is the fuel mixture ignited in a conventional aircraft reciprocating engine?

The correct answer is dependent on the model engine. But in general the spark starts several degrees before the piston arrives at Top Dead Centre.
