Diesel Engine
Intake: Ignition: Just AIR Heat of compressed air 14:1 to 25:1
Spark Ignition Engine
Intake: Mixture of PETROL and AIR
Ignition: Spark Plug Compression ratio: 8:1 to 12:1 Less efficient
Compression ratio:
Higher compression ratio leads to better efficiency
Intake:
Fresh Air
Compression: Very high pressure Fuel Injection: Fine fuel spray by Fuel Injectors Combustion: Expansion: Exhaust: Spontaneous combustion Gases expand Burnt gases rush out
Intake: Compression:
Downward piston travel Intake valve is opened Air, fuel mixture enters Intake valve is closed Piston travels back up Intake air is compressed Fuel is injected near TDC Ignition Piston is forced down Piston rises up Exhaust valve is opened Exhaust gases go out

Water is used in Cooling System NEVER use SALINE WATER in Engine Cooling System Recommended: Distilled Water or Deionized Water Ethylene Glycol Propylene Glycol Water/Glycol mixture provides protection against: Boiling Freezing Water Pump cavitations 1:1
Coolant Temperature Gauge
Water/Glycol mixture:
Concentration 50 Percent 60 Percent
Ethylene Glycol Freeze Protection Anti-Boil Protection -36 C -51 C 106 C 111 C
Combustion process generates heat Excessive heat can damage engine components Cooling system removes heat Coolant: Distilled Water, De-ionized Water Water is circulated by Cooling Water Pump Water is circulated through engine water jackets
Forced air for better heat transfer i-e Convectional Heat Transfer Fitted on a belt driven pulley Crankshaft pulley drives Radiator Fan Normally V-Type Belts are used Imbalanced, damaged or fan with loose belt may cause vibration
Important component of Cooling Water System Water passes through Fine Copper Tubes Radiator fan blows air through fins Heat is transferred: Copper Tubes Fins Convectional Heat Transfer
Engine needs fine fuel spray Fuel spray by Fuel Injectors To maintain fuel quality Fuel Filters are used Filters separate: Water Contamination Particulate Contamination Types: Primary Fuel Filter Secondary Fuel Filter
Lubricating Oil passes through fine orifices L.O makes a very fine oil film between two metal Prevents metal to metal contact L.O quality is most important To maintain L.O quality Oil Filters are used Oil Filters remove Particulate Contamination
Used for initial starting of an Engine Battery (DC Power) runs Starting Motor Starting Motor turns the Crankshaft Thermodynamic cycle completes and Engine starts
