Experiment M4 : 2 Stroke‚ 4 Stroke Diesel Engines Abstract Introduction The aim of this experiment was to explore the engines testing methods and to find how the chemical energy in the fuel is converted into power and distributed throughout the system. Six major components of the engine were studied to understand their effect on the engine. Also‚ a multi-cylinder diesel engine is tested for its efficiency. Development of efficiency of the engine has allowed the motor companies to grow very rapidly

1. A reciprocating engine automatic mixture control responds to changes in air density caused by changes in Altitude or temperature 2. On a float-type carburetor‚ the purpose of the economizer valve is to Provide a richer mixture and cooling at maximum power output 3. The fuel metering force of a conventional float-type carburetor in its normal operating range is the difference between the pressure acting on the discharge nozzle located within the venture and the pressure Acting on

"I never think of the future‚ it comes soon enough" (Albert Einstein). Electric cars are automobiles they use one or more electric motors‚ other than using more common gasoline powered engines. Electric cars use batteries; batteries are used to store energy. Since Electric motors don’t have to warm up they have instant torque‚ creating strong and smooth acceleration‚ which can give you a more satisfying ride. Electric cars are safer and better than gasoline powered cars‚ since they aren’t polluting

Throughout many years oil change shops recommended an oil change every 3000 to 5000 miles because substances like dust‚ metallic shaving‚ and even antifreeze get whipped into the oil forming sludge; which will stick to parts of your engine‚ causing engine failure. b) When you pull over to a mechanic shop and ask them how much they charge for an oil change. You leave shocked by the 50 dollar charge thinking bout all the other ways you could have spent them 50 bucks wisely or at your convenience
