ABSTRACT Dilution of a stoichiometric spark ignited (SI) charge with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) has been shown to improve thermal efficiency and fuel consumption through improved combustion ...

Direct-injection spark-ignition (DISI) engines have been investigated for many years but only recently have shown promise as a next generation gasoline engine technology. Much of this new enthusiasm ...

According to Unison Industries, its new dual direct spark ignition system (DDSI) successfully lit the Pratt & Whitney RL 10A-4-2 engine on the Lockheed ...

Whether you service your own ignition or need more troubleshooting savvy for road rallies and cruising, this month's lesson focuses on spark and ignition system basics. Understanding ignition ...

As fuel prices continue to rise and consumer awareness and or government regulations for lower combustion emissions increase, automobile manufacturers are exploring ignition strategies to improve the ...

Advanced Corona Ignition System (ACIS) is a new and somewhat different way of igniting the fuel in gasoline engines. Compared to conventional spark ignition systems, corona ignition uses ...

At 7,000 rpm, a spark plug ignites the air/fuel mixture nearly 60 times per second. Any one of those 60 sparks going amiss can at best be mildly annoying, and at worst cost you a race or an engine.

An ignition coil is a vital component of a vehicle's ignition system. It is responsible for converting the low voltage from the battery into the high voltage needed to produce sparks at the spark ...
