Under the necessary conditions of ignition and proper burn rates (cylinder pressure history), both these conditions can exist in virtually any engine. But, in particular, they certainly apply to race ...

Ignition coils last far longer than spark plugs and only need replacement when symptoms appear. Here’s how to tell if coils ...

A.Here's a pressure-volume diagram for a combustion engine. Although rough, it is an approximation of the so-called air-standard cycle. '' Point (a) is at atmospheric pressure, after which the air is ...

Purdue University researchers are working on methods to use jet ignition technology to help power personal cars and other automobiles. (Stock photo) The same technology used in jets soon may be ...

SAE International Journal of Engines, Vol. 14, No. 3 (2021), pp. 335-344 (10 pages) The addition of a spark plug in place of the original fuel injector and fumigating natural gas (NG) inside the ...

The ignition control module is a crucial component of a vehicle's ignition system. It is a control unit responsible for regulating the ignition timing and generating sparks to ignite the fuel-air ...

ABSTRACT To reduce carbon dioxide emission and to relieve the demand of fossil fuels, ethanol is regarded as one of the most promising alternative fuels for gasoline. Recently, using ethanol in the ...

With more and more new electric cars on the horizon, the future of internal combustion engines seems darker every day. But this new type of hyper-efficient engine design might keep it around for a bit ...

When your car starts making a metallic knocking sound under the hood, you'd assume it could only be one thing: the engine. However, there are two common culprits, and they're definitely not the same.

ICE vehicles are projected to represent the majority of the European car parc in 2035, and ignition coils remain a high-replacement component with sustained demand.
