The brake power of a diesel engine, keeping other parameters constant, can be increased by
-
In diesel engines, the fuel is injected in the form of very fine spray, into the engine cylinder, which gets ignited due to high temperature of the compressed air.
-
Pre-ignition is caused by the spontantaneous combustion of the mixture before the end of the compression stroke, and is due to
-
The expansion of fuel in a four stroke cycle diesel engine
-
The object of supercharging the engine is
-
In open combustion chamber in diesel engines, the shape and layout of the piston crown, the inlet port and the valve produce the turbulent effect of fuel mixture.
-
In a four stroke cycle petrol engine, the charge is ignited at
-
A moderator, in nuclear power plants, is a medium introduced into the fuel mass in order to
-
Where reactor operation is designed with fast neutrons such as in reactors using highly enriched fuel, the moderator used is
-
In a diesel engine, the duration between the time of injection and ignition, is known as
