Diesel Motor Working Principle 4 Steps
The working principle is not exactly the same diesel engine with 4-stroke gasoline engine, the difference is only in the combustion process. Motor gasoline fuel burned through the spark plugs while the diesel motor fuel is burned itself due to the high heat and pressure. 4-stroke cycle diesel engine can be shown in the following figure:
Step Suction
a. The piston moves from TDC to BDC
b. Suction valves open
c. The exhaust valve is closed
d. Occurs vacuum in the cylinder, which causes the pure air into the cylinder
Step Compression
a. The piston moves from BDC to TDC
b. Suction valve closed
c. The exhaust valve is closed
The air is compressed to a pressure and temperature to be 30 kg / cm2 and 500 ° C
Step Enterprises
a. Suction valve closed
b. The exhaust valve is closed
c. Injectors inject fuel combustion that occurs that causes the piston moves from TDC to BDC
Step waste
a. The piston moves from BDC to TDC
b. Suction valve closed
c. The exhaust valve opens
d. Piston pushing flue gas exit
