The special case of Diesel engine combustion is of particular importance, since on the one hand the Diesel engine is certainly a commonly used combustor, and on the other hand it provides unfortunately good condi-tions for strong soot formation, due to locally very fuel rich conditions, which occur during spray combustion.

 · A diesel engine takes air, compresses it, and then injects fuel into the compressed air. The heat of the compressed air ignites the fuel spontaneously. A diesel …

 · A typical diesel automotive engine operates at around 30% to 35% of thermal efficiency. About 65-70% is rejected as waste heat without being converted into useful work, i.e. work delivered to wheels. In general, engines using the Diesel cycle are usually more efficient, than engines using the Otto cycle.

 · Abstract: To verify the validity of oil analysis for heavy diesel engine condition monitoring, the lubricating oil were sampled from the lubricating system of the domestic diesel engines, and then were tested by oil analysis (including contamination detection, periodic sampling test and ferrography technology).

Methanol and ethanol are being considered as alternative fuels for diesel engines. One of the key concerns with using alcohol fuels in diesel engines is their poor ignition quality. This work presents the ignition characteristics of methanol and ethanol examined under simulated diesel engine conditions in a constant-volume combustion vessel.

 · Diesel engines can have many causes of failure some of the main are wear (Jiang and Yan 2008 ), lubrication and operating in areas with a different climate.

 · Diesel engines ignite their fuel through compression. Temperature of gas molecules rise when the volume decreases because of the ideal gas law (unless the gas is cooled at the same time). Diesel engines rely on this. A piston compresses the air in the cylinder (see figure 1), making it extremely hot.
