That refers to the area where a piston goes un and downin a 4 or 2 cycle engine and burns the fuel it has pumped into that chamber compressed by the piston and ignaited by the spark plug.

What is the difference between a closed combustion furnace and open combustion furnace?

A closed combustion furnace has a sealed combustion chamber, drawing outside air for combustion and expelling combustion gases outside through a dedicated vent, resulting in higher energy efficiency and indoor air quality. An open combustion furnace draws air from inside the home for combustion and expels gases through a chimney, potentially leading to energy loss and indoor air quality issues.


What is a cooling combustion?

Cooling combustion refers to a combustion process where heat is removed from the combustion zone to lower the temperature. This can be achieved through the injection of a coolant or by designing the combustion chamber in a way that dissipates heat more efficiently. Cooling combustion can help reduce emissions of pollutants and increase fuel efficiency in engines.


If more power is to be gained from this design what must also accompany the extra supply of oxygen to the combustion chamber?

To gain more power from the design with an increased supply of oxygen to the combustion chamber, it is essential to also supply a corresponding increase in fuel to maintain the proper air-fuel ratio for efficient combustion. Additionally, the combustion chamber must be capable of withstanding higher pressures and temperatures, which may require enhanced materials and cooling systems. Proper tuning of the ignition timing and exhaust systems may also be necessary to optimize performance and prevent engine knock.


What is progressive combustion?

Progressive combustion is a combustion process where the burning of fuel in the combustion chamber occurs in a controlled and sequential manner, ensuring more efficient energy release and reduced emissions. It involves a steady propagation of the flame front through the fuel-air mixture, allowing for a smoother and more controlled combustion process. This can lead to improved engine performance and fuel efficiency.


What is the change of enthalpy associated with the combustion of one mole of pentane The chemical equation is C5H12 8 O2 yields 5 CO2 6 H2O?

The enthalpy associated with pentane is roughly 1 to 1 when combustion in a vacuum chamber, if you combustion it outside you will have a greater rate of loss from the pentane.

What is the reason for having a combustion chamber on a rocket?

A combustion chamber is where combustion occurs in a controlled fashion. Because the basic idea of a rocket is burning fuels and directing them in the opposite direction to that of travel, a controlled burning - as happens in the combustion chamber - is exactly what a rocket needs to work.

Compression ratio of the internal combustion engine is defined as?

The compression ratio of an internal-combustion engine, or an IC engine as it is more commonly called, is the ratio of the volume the highest capacity of the combustion chamber to its lowest capacity. In the IC engine, the piston makes a stroke, resulting in the compression of the air in the combustion chamber - the ratio between the volume of the cylinder and combustion chamber when the piston is at the bottom of its stroke, and the volume of the combustion chamber when the piston is at the top of its stroke, is the compression ratio.

What is Combustion Chamber and its types?

A combustion chamber is a space within an engine or furnace where fuel and air mix and ignite to produce energy. The primary types of combustion chambers include open, closed, and semi-closed chambers. Open chambers allow for unrestricted airflow and are often used in simpler applications, while closed chambers contain the combustion process and are more efficient, commonly found in modern engines. Semi-closed chambers offer a balance, providing some control over the combustion process while allowing for partial exhaust flow.


How do worn valves affect the operating engine?

Worn valves will not seal completely, will not open completely, or open as far as they should. This will cause incomplete combustion, backfire of exhaust gasses, release of compression, and escape of oil into the combustion chamber. Engine will lack power and smoke.
