6. Combustion Theory
When gasoline burns optimally in the air a chemist writes the whole thing like this:
The expression can be used to determine the relationship that should exist between air and fuel for optimized combustion.

7. Combustion Theory
Since many efforts have been made to find out how much weight molecules have, so you can set up the relationship between fuel and air mass for complete combustion.

8. Combustion Theory
Stoichiometric or Theoretical Combustion is the ideal combustion process where fuel is burned completely, and this means that Lambda has the value 1.
Lamba higher than 1 is lean mixture. For example 1,05
Lambda lower than 1 is rich mixture. For example 0,95

9. Combustion Theory
It can be difficult to get an idea of ​​how much the 14.6 kg of air is so if we make it into a volume ratio so it is easier to get a reasonable idea of ​​how the relationship is.
Mass ratio:
14,6 kg air to 1 kg fuel
Volume ratio (approximately):
10,000 liters of air to 1 liter of fuel

Spark (Ignition)
Air =
Oxygen
Nicolaus Otto 1877
Air and fuel are mixed and fed into the cylinder where it is compressed. A spark from the spark plug ignites the fuel / air mixture at the end of the compression.

13. Otto engine/Diesel engine
Rudolf Diesel 1893
The compression raises the temperature over the fuel's ignition temperature and the fuel is injected into the cylinder under high pressure.

14. Diesel engine Four-stroke principle for a diesel engine. Intake
4-stroke diesel engine principle: (2 revolutions)
The intake stroke.
The piston moves down, air is sucked into (or pressed if the engine is equipped with turbo) in the cylinder through the open intake valves.
The compression stroke.
The piston moves upwards into the cylinder, both valves are closed, the air temperature rises due to the increase in pressure.
The expansion stroke.
Shortly before TDC, fuel is injected into the cylinder and ignited by the high air temperature. This increases the pressure in the cylinder and the piston is pushed down with great force (about tons).
The exhaust stroke.
The piston moves upward and pushes out the exhaust gases through the open exhaust valve.

15. Diesel engine Turbo charger (exhaustgas-driven turbocharger)
Turbo Chargers
The turbocharger´s mission is to increase the amount of air (about 6x more than non-turbo) that goes into the cylinders. The combustion chamber´s design combined with the amount of air and the injected fuel into the cylinder provides a high power.
The turbocharger consists of the turbine and the compressor. The turbine is driven by the exhaust gases from the engine. The compressor compresses the inlet air that goes into the engine.
Higher power output from the engine produces more exhaust. More exhaust cause the turbine wheel and compressor to higher speed. In this way the quantity of air to the engine needs no special regulating devices.
Turbo pressure between bar, industrial engines up to 2.7 bar.

16. Diesel engine Intercooler Intercooler.
The compressed air after the turbo compressor is fed through a tube to the intercooler which is placed in front of the Radiator.
The air is cooled by the wind and the fan and then passes the Radiator. After cooling the intake air is led into the intake manifold which distributes the air to the cylinders.
The colder the air is the more oxygen atoms is contained in the same volume.
NOTE! There is also a water-cooled version (IP)

17. Diesel engine Turbo Compound
When exhaust gas leaves the engine's combustion chamber, they have a temperature of approximately 700 degrees C. When they passed the turbochargers turbine's temperature has dropped to about 600 degrees C.
The difference of 100 degrees C means that some of the heat energy used to force around the turbine in the turbocharger. The remaining amount of heat, 600 degrees C, goes out through the exhaust pipe.

26. Injection pressure
The development in fuel injection during is nothing short of a revolution!
We can do things now that we couldn’t even dream about then.
Generally, the big step towards electronic engine management was taken in conjunction with Euro 2.
The breakthrough for unit injectors came with Euro 3.
Injection pressures have doubled in this period – that’s one major reason why we have been able to maintain good fuel economy while reducing emissions.
And for Euro 5 and Euro 6 … with Scania XPI … even more tricks are waiting round the corner.
