Diesel cars are more expensive to purchase outright, but they can be cheaper to operate and maintain in the long run. Diesel engines are more efficient than gas engines and require less fuel to travel the same distance. They also last longer, so you may not need to replace your diesel car...
In this article differences in efficiency between a SI engine and a diesel engine is introduced on basis of this method. Furthermore a split of loss calculation for the gas exchange is described, which allows to evaluate efficiency increasing measures for the gas exchange. The results are part ...
PREMIER combustion mainly occurs in supercharged gas engines, such as diesel fuel ignited dual-fuel engines. As the ignition induced by the diesel fuel injection or spark plug progresses, auto-ignition occurs in the end-gas region as it is heated by the main combustion. During the main ...
Both petrol and diesel fuels are derived from crude oil that is found deep in the earth’s crust. Although both types of fuel are commonly used, diesel is generally used to power larger engines, such as those found in trucks, boats, and cranes, while petrol is used to power smaller engi...
Diesel engine oil has more additives per volume. The most prevalent are overbase detergent additives. These additives have several functions, but the primary ones are to neutralize acids and clean the oil in the sump. Diesel engines create a great deal more soot and combustion byproducts. Throug...
What are the differences between a waste gate and a BOV or blow off valve? We find that many people are confused by the two devices and see them wrongly used. There are two sides to a turbocharger, the exhaust flow side and the intake side. ...
The Indian Navy’s Shivalik-class multi-role stealth frigates are capable of reaching a maximum speed of 32 knots. The trio of operational Shivalik class frigates attains this speed through the combined power of two Pielstick 16 PA6 STC Diesel engines and two GE LM2500+ boost turbines, generati...
A weird thing happened over the year we spent in the UK and Ireland in 2017/2018. When we changed the oil, it didn’t blacken for more than 100 hours. Very few things on a diesel engine get better with wear so we were scratching our head as to why an engine with 9,000 hours wou...
To wrap things up, most differences between ICE and electric cars come from the fact that the two use totally different kinds of propulsion which require totally different components. If we look past these facts, then we start to see the similarities because after all, they are both cars and...
The study and modeling of the combustion process of diesel engines require knowledge of the injection characteristics. The information on the exact start, duration and end of the injection is required. For Common Rail injectors with elec... J. Begin,R. D. Koski 被引量: 0发表: 1993年 ...
