Introduction
Invented by Rudolf Diesel between
1892 and 1893
Internal Combustion Engine
Reciprocating Engine
Intermittent Combustion Engine
Utilizes liquid fuel
Compression Ignition vs. Spark
Ignition
Heavy Duty Applications

Compression Ratios
Squeeze on air/fuel mixture before
combustion
Efficiency increases with higher CR
About 9:1 on gas autos
17:1 to 24:1 for diesel engines
About 24:1 CR max:
High reliability
Low fuel cost
High power / lb. of engine
Low fuel consumption
Low fire hazard
High torque at low RPM
Greater heat efficiency- 30% (25% gas)
Longer service intervals
20
Disadvantages of Diesel
Power
Expensive to repair
Hard starting in cold weather
Higher initial cost
21
Gasoline power
stroke = 460 psi;
Diesel = 1200psi
Diesel heat
efficiency about
5% higher than
gasoline

Sometimes called
a Rotary Piston
Receives power

Rotor has three
faces
Apex seals at tipslike rings

Epitrochoidal Bore
E-Bore
Same purpose as
the cylinder walls
