How Diesel Two-Stroke Engines Work

If you read as a two-stroke engines work, he learned that a large difference between the two stroke or four times as much power the engine can produce. The spark plug turned on twice as often in a two-stroke engine-once for each revolution of the crankshaft, compared to once every two rotations in a four-stroke engine. This means that a two-stroke engine has the potential to produce energy as a double four-stroke engine the same size.
The article also explains two-stroke engine, gasoline engines times, in which the gas mixed with compressed air, is not a perfect complement to the two phases. The problem is that a loss of unburned fuel to each of the cylinders with the air-fuel mixture is calculated. The result is that the approach of the diesel engine, the only compressed air and then the fuel directly in the compressed air is a better match with the two-stroke cycle. Many manufacturers of large diesel engines then use this method to create high-powered motors.
The following figure shows the structure of a typical two-stroke diesel engine. In the upper part of the cylinder, usually two or four exhaust valves open at a time. There is also a diesel fuel injector (see above yellow). The piston is stretched, as in a two-stroke engine with gasoline, making act as the suction valve. In the lower part of the piston stroke, the piston covers the air intake openings. The intake air is under pressure from a turbocharger or a compressor (blue light). The oil in the crankcase is sealed and contains a four-stroke engine.
The two-stroke diesel cycle is as follows:
  • When the piston is at the upper end of its stroke, the cylinder contains highly compressed air available. The diesel fuel into the cylinder through the nozzle and immediately by heat and pressure inside the cylinder. This is the same procedure as diesel engines already described.
  • The pressure from the combustion of fuel to drive down the piston. This is the working stroke.
  • When the piston is the lower end of its stroke, all the exhaust valves open approaches. The exhaust gases to run out of the cylinder to help the pressure.
  • When the piston reaches the bottom, found the air vents. The compressed air filling the cylinder, forcing the rest of the exhaust gases.
  • The narrow exhaust valves and the piston starts to move again, again to cover the openings of the intake and compression of the charge air cooler. This is the compression stroke.
  • When the piston approaches the top of the cylinder for the cycle is repeated from step 1.
From this description it can make the difference between a two-stroke engine diesel and gasoline engines to see two-stroke engine, the diesel version, only the air fills the cylinder, mixed gas and air instead of each other. This means that a two-stroke engine diesel engine all environmental problems that affect suffers from a two-stroke engine with gasoline. On the other hand, a two-stroke diesel engines have a turbocharger or asupercharger, and this means that you never had a two-stroke diesel engine with a chainsaw - that would be too expensive.
