The Engineers Crib

The compression ignition engine[C.I engines] also known as the diesel engine is invented by Dr. Rodolph Diesel. The C.I engine is an internal combustion engine in which combustion occurs as a result of the compression of the air to a temperature sufficient enough to ignite the fuel. There are several similarities and minor difference between the C.I engines and the gasoline powered engines(spark ignition engines,S.I engines). The components such as the crankshaft, camshaft, piston,valves etc they both share in common.  The same cycle of operation governs both for the four stroke and two stroke engine process. However the diesel engines can easily be recognized by the absence of the ignition system and other factors such as Injection of fuel is done via an injection pump They are noisy and produces pollutants easily It produces more power and torque Overtime, diesel engines have received massive success in the construction of heavy duty trucks,construction equipment ,power pl
