Summary Engine diesel Basic characteristic

Diesel Engine Operation
Thermal internal combustin engine who power is archived by high temperature that causes compression of the air inside the cylinder, also known as a compression ignition engine (mec)

Duty cicle:
Admission: Fresh air entering the cylinder by downward movement of piston. Compression:The piston compresses the air very strong and it reaches a very high temperatura Work: Disel fuel is injected, and this immediately turns on because of the high temperatura, Espacpe: The piston pushes the combustin gases toward exhaust,

Diesel engine concept on

The diesel engine, also called a compression ignition engine is named after Dr Rudolf Diesel whoever patented an engine of a compression ignition type in Germany 1893. Is an internal combustion engine namely the combustion takes place inside the engine. In its basic aspects is similar in design and construction to a gasoline engine. however, there differences diesel engine in the method of delivering fuel to the engine cylinders and how combustion occurs. In the gasoline engine the fuel enters the cylinder as a fuel and air mixture and inflammation or ignition of the mixture is caused by an electric spark in the spark plugs. In the case of Diesel, the fuel is injected into the cylinder in the form of atomized spray jet ( to be called atomization) and the ignition occurs due to the high temperature of the air inside the cylinder in which fuel is inject The compression ignition name of is related to the engine operating mode. The Diesel engine is designed with very high compression ratios, which produce high pressures and therefore very high temperatures in the air that is compressed into the engine combustion chambers.

These temperatures are high enough to cause it to ignite the fuel in a stream of spray is atomized into the combustion chamber. Therefore we see that the compression causes ignition and therefore these engine are known as compression-ignition. However, the name has been used for compression.ignition engines for so many years and is widely used.

Diesel engine rankings

The diesel engine ranking according to its operating cycle: Inside the engine events occur that make it work. These are repeated to form a cycle. Motor assembly can be designed so that its full cycle occurs with four or two strokes of the piston. Most of it. Diesel engine powered four-stroke cycle, the others, with the two-stroke cycle.

Types of engine
Diesel engine can be divided as:
1) Operating cycles 2) The provision or arrangement of cylinders 3) The effect of the pistons 4) Injection methods.

Duty cycle
Diesel engines can be classified for by number of time the motor: 4 cycles engines and 2 cycle engines. The meaning of these terms will be explained in the principles of Diesel Engine.

Disposition of the Cylinders

Cylinders in line: It is the simplest disposition with all the cylinders, parallels in line. This class of construction is used in the engines that they have up to 10 Cylinders. Disposition in V: if the engine has more than 8 cylinders can be difficult to do without an armor the sufficiently rigid in line. The disposition in V with 2 connected rods to the same stump allows the reduction of the length the half making this way much more rigid, whit a resistant crankshaft. This common glad engine cylinders 8 to 16. The cylinders located in the plane receive the name of block anf the angle of the blocks can changer of 30 to 120 being the most common angle between 40 and 75 -Horizontal engine : engines are made whit an anlge of 180 , it is used principally for buses and trucks.

Engine parts
Diesel engines change enormously in its exterior appearance, size, number of cylinders, disposition the of cylinders and details of construction. Nevertheless, they all have the main basic parts, which may have different aspects to perform the same functions Only there are very few basic parts of work main that will help the main ones it is functioning as well as the necessary parts of connection to maintain the work of the set. The main parts of work are: Cylinders Piston Rod Crankshaft

Cylinder
The heart of the Cylinder is the where the fuel is and the potency develops. Inside the Cylinder is formed by the shirt and the cabezote that seals an end of the cylinder and often, although not always, it contains the valves to administer fuel and air and to eliminate the gases produced by the combustion. The diameter of the cylinder is known like auger or internal diameter. Piston: The piston seals another end of the cylinder and transmits on the outside the potency developed inside the cylinder by the combustion of the fuel oil. A watertightness between the piston and the shirt of the cylinder is produced by the rings of the piston lubricated with oil of the engine. The distance that the piston covers of an end to other of the cylinder is known by the name of career.

Connecting rod: A called end I chirped of connecting rod it is assured to the ball of the piston and another called head of connecting rod has a bearing and he is assured to the engine. The connecting rod transforms the alternative movement of the piston into continuous rotation movement in the crankshaft during the work career and vice versa during all the careers.

Crankshaft: The crankshaft obtains its movement of rotation of the piston across the connecting rod and the stump placed between the cranks. The work of the piston is transmitted to the helix or to the axis propellent of a generator. A frill of sufficient mass is assured to the crankshaft in order to reduce the fluctuations of the speed for kinetic storage during the work careers. The oil pan is constructed to protect the crankshaft, the bearings, the connecting rods and other accessories to gather the oil of the mobile parts and to serve as recipient of the oil of the system of lubrication. The fuel for the engines Diesel is given by the camera of combustion of the cylinders by a system of injection consisted of bombs, tubes and injectors.
