    Peak Cylinder Pressure for a Diesel Engine

    Not a lot of interest in water injection from my experience. Fortunately we have found a way to move peak cylinder pressure to a more advanced crank angle without the NOX problem. Thanks for your comment. Regards

    Exhaust System Flow Capacity

    What also helps is if you want a free flowing exhaust but not the wrong noise make sure both mufflers are of a different design. Example is the front muffler could be a baffled muffler that flows good good but is way to noisy but by placing a side absorption muffler at the back the sound usually...

    Peak Cylinder Pressure for a Diesel Engine

    Yes it does sound like a lot of Bologna. But it is what it is. I think I need to rephrase my question. I will keep it as broad as I can. Can anyone tell me if CI engines in general under all the varying specs and running conditions achieve cylinder peak pressure earlier or later for crank angle...

    Peak Cylinder Pressure for a Diesel Engine

    I have designed an engine that has been tested independently by a leading University. Detroit sent me data they wanted me to use. It showed that at 14.2% throttle setting they were achieving peak pressure at 15 deg after TDC. They then set the throttle at 100% and it gave a peak cylinder...

    Peak Cylinder Pressure for a Diesel Engine

    Thanks. But what would be a realistic crank angle peak pressure point for most ordinary car engines with say 14.5% throttle setting or normal cruising speed.

    Peak Cylinder Pressure for a Diesel Engine

    Can someone help me with Peak cylinder pressure in SI and CI engines. From some engine data I have it appears that in a SI engine peak cylinder pressure can vary from 10 degrees after TDC to 27 degrees after TDC. The factors that seem to affect where peak pressure occurs are the throttle...
