Diesel Engine
Posted on Monday, September 5, 2011 in tools
How does a diesel engine “know” when to fire?
Since diesel engines have no ignition systems, the fuel is injected into the engine and must ‘swirl’ into the highly compressed air at the top of the compression cycle. But how does the ensuing explosion occur at the optimum time?
Diesels dont have spark plugs. The explosion occurs based on compression, which is higest at the top of the compression stroke. Diesel engines use compression ignition where fuel is injected after the air is compressed in the combustion chamber and this causes the fuel to ignite.
