Why petrol engine is called spark ignition engine?
Because the fuel is ignited by a spark plug rather than by compression as is the case with a diesel.
How many types of spark ignition engine?
There are basically two types of spark ignition engine. They are the diesel spark engines and the petrol spark engines.
What is spark ignition or Diesel?
spark ignition engine is also known as petrol engine. but in diesel engines the fuel is burnt due to the high compression of air.so there is no need of spark plug
Full form of SI engine?
SI stands for Spark Ignition. eg. Petrol Engine.
How are internal combustion engines?
you cut off the ignition spark in a petrol engine
How are internal combustion engines stopped?
you cut off the ignition spark in a petrol engine
What engine uses a spark plug to ignite a compressed air-gas mixture?
A spark ignition engine, like your average gasoline/petrol burning car engine.
What is spark ignition engine?
A 'spark ignition ' engine is your regular gasoline engine as opposed to a diesel, which is a 'compression ignition' engine
IS the petrol NECESSARY FOR burning combustion?
Yes, petrol is necessary for burning combustion in spark ignition engines. It serves as the fuel source that, when combined with air and ignited by a spark plug, initiates the combustion process that powers the engine.
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
Does an mpfi engine replace spark plug?
No. Spark plugs remain in Petrol engines. MPFI stands for Multi Point Fuel Injection, thus replacing the carburetor with injectors. Petrol engines need a source for ignition unlike Diesel engines, where the ignition happens due to compression.
Can you make a diesel engine which works on the basic principle of petrol engine or you can say it uses diesel as a fuel but works on the principle of petrol engine?
No, a diesel is a compression firing engine and a petrol is a spark firing engine. Diesel fuel will not burn in a petrol engine with spark plugs.
