What else can I help you with?
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 are the defferences between dessel and petrol engine?
Petrol & Gas engines are spark ignited engines where as diesel engines are compression ignited engines. Petrol engines works with explosion of fuel air mixture due to spark from spark plug inside the cylinder. Diesel engines works with combustion of fuel air mixture due to compression, compressed mixture attains a very high temperature which exceeds the flash point of diesel and starts burning inside the cylinder and the hot gases after burning of fuel misture exerts force on piston which makes the diesel engines work. Diesel engines are highly efficient than petrol engines.
Will a petrol engine run on diesel?
NO!
Why compression ratio of petrol enine is 8 where as diesel engine is 22?
because a diesel engine ignites its fuel with pressure, and not with a spark like a petrol engine. that is why a petrol engine does not need as high a compression ratio as a diesel engine
What is the typical compression in a diesel engine verses a petrol engine?
2.5 liter Petrol 8-1 diesel 25-1 compression
Who has the lowest boiling point fraction petrol or diesel?
Petrol has a lower boiling point than diesel. This is because petrol is a lighter fraction of crude oil, consisting of shorter hydrocarbon chains, which results in a lower boiling point compared to diesel.
What will be the state of melting point and boiling point of petrol?
Petrol is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons and its composition can vary. Typically, petrol has a low melting point and boiling point range due to its composition of lighter hydrocarbons. The boiling point of petrol is generally around 30-200°C, while the melting point is typically below -50°C.
What are the boiling point ranges of petrol and diesel?
Petrol has a boiling point of 38-204 degrees Centigrade, while diesel has a boiling point of >150 degrees centigrade.
Which catches fire more quickly petrol or diesel?
petrol has a lower flash point and is more volatile than diesel.
Is it more dangerous to spill petrol or diesel onto a hot vehicle exhaust pipe?
Petrol, it has a lower flash point and is more flammable than diesel
What is the melting point point of petrol?
Gasoline's, also know as petrol, are heterogeneous mixtures of multiple components each having different freezing, melting and points. For example a major component of gasoline are isooctane's, with melting points in the 165.7 degrees Kelvin range.
How can you test if petrol or diesel is in spare fuel tank?
Take a sample out and check following; Colour - Petrol is almost clear, diesel is more yellowy Smell - Diesel and Petrol both have distinctively different smells, only way is if you get a sample of either as a reference Flash point - Petrol has a much lower flash point so will burn if ignited whereas diesel wont. If you take a very small sample and under safe and controlled circumstances try to ignite with a match if burns is petrol if not diesel Hope this helps
Why does diesel freeze quicker than petrol?
Diesel fuel and petrol/gasoline are similar; both of them are mainly mixtures of hydrocarbons. However, Diesel is considerably less volatile because it the compounds in it are of higher molecular weight; they have a higher boiling point ... and also a higher freezing point.
Is petrol is used in diesel cars?
No, diesel engine require diesel fuel. Put petrol in a diesel engine and you will destroy it.
What is diesel and petrol used for?
diesel and petrol are source which is used to generate power.
What is the flash point of diesel and petrol, and how does it impact their safety and handling?
The flash point of diesel is typically around 52-96C, while the flash point of petrol is usually around -45C. The flash point is the temperature at which a substance can ignite when exposed to a flame or spark. A higher flash point, like that of diesel, means it is less flammable and safer to handle compared to petrol, which has a lower flash point and is more flammable. This difference in flash points impacts the safety protocols and precautions needed when handling and storing these fuels.
What is the difference between the burning temperature of diesel and petrol?
The burning temperature of diesel is higher than that of petrol. Diesel ignites at a higher temperature compared to petrol.
