How energy harnessed from fossil fuel?

You burn them in some type of engine to extract their energy.


Whether water is good fuel or not?

Water is an excellent fuel for internal combustion engine, But, It takes A LOT! of energy to make it to the form to burn


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.


What is purpose of the injector of the engine?

The injector in an engine serves the crucial purpose of delivering fuel into the combustion chamber at the correct timing and in an atomized form. This ensures efficient mixing with air for optimal combustion, which enhances engine performance and fuel efficiency. Additionally, it helps reduce harmful emissions by promoting a more complete burn of the fuel. Proper injector function is vital for maintaining overall engine health and performance.


How does a Bollinger engine work?

The engine is a 2 stroke 'semi' diesel. Inlet and exhaust are as per 'normal' two stroke diesel but the injected fuel is not ignited by compression alone as in a normal diesel. Instead a 'hot bulb' on the cylinder head is heated with a blow-lamp before starting and heat from this, transferred to a tube in the combustion chamber which ignites the fuel to start the engine. Once running the engine itself maintains the temperature. Often called a Hot Bulb Engine.

Basic difference in Internal combustion and External combustion engine's work principle?

internal combustion engine is one in which we burn the air fuel mixtue inside the cylinder of engine eg car engine external combustion engine is one in which we burn the fuel outside of engine and then take the hot gases inside the prime movers for taking out work eg gas turbine


Why does your car lose lots of water and lose power at slow speed?

Cooling system is leaking and the engine is getting hot. Hot engines burn the fuel before it can ignite and you lose power.


Does heating your car burn gas?

Usually heating is done by passing air over the hot engine so no extra fuel (gas/petrol) is used.


Which gas must be presented in the atmosphere for a jet engine to burn its fuel?

Oxygen is the gas needed for a jet engine to burn its fuel. It combines with the fuel in the combustion chamber to generate the necessary energy for thrust.


You accidentally put diesel fuel in your riding lawn mower and started it. What can I do?

Drain it and dilute with gas while engine is hot so that you can burn it out. You will be hard pressed to crank it cold on diesel. If the engine is cole, spray carb cleaner in carb to warm it and burn it clean.


Does internal combustion engines burn fuel outside the engine?

No the fuel is burnt inside the engine, hence the term "internal combustion"


Can you burn e20 flex fuel in your non flex fuel vehicle?

No, you cannot use E85 or above in any engine not designed for that fuel. You will damage the engine if you do.


How hot does diesel fuel burn?

US Grade Diesel: 210 C


Why does an engine turn faster as the throttle is opened?

With an open throttle the engine can get more of the fuel-air mixture into it. With more fuel to burn it will run faster.


What the role of air displacement in engine?

It's just the complement to fuel displacement. How much air the engine takes in affects how much fuel it can burn.


Why you mix air with petrol in ic engine?

The fuel needs oxygen to burn.


Why engine need air?

Air is fed into the cylinder - to mix with fuel. The fuel cannot burn without air !
