Applied Research into Combustion in Small Diesel Engines

  • Chapter
Internal Combustion Engineering: Science & Technology

Abstract

In a spark-ignition (SI) engine, the mixture formation is performed partly in the intake manifold and partly in the cylinder. At worst, a period of 360° crankshaft is available. In a diesel engine, on the other hand, all fuel injection, mixture formation, ignition delay and combustion must be commenced and completed within only 30–50° crankshaft. Thus it can be seen that the diesel engine can be primarily understood in terms of the special features of its mixture formation and its ignition delay, which takes from 2 to 20° CA from that time.
