Difference between SI Engines CI Engines. SI is SPARK IGNITION - Otto (4-stroke) and Day (2-stroke) cycle CI is COMPRESSION IGNITION (DIESEL) also in 4- and 2-stroke variants The SI spark plug is timed to start combustion at the ideal moment, usually some degrees before the piston reaches the top (TDC or Top Dead Centre).

Difference between SI Engines CI Engines

The burning mixture then drives the piston down for the power stroke. The CI fuel is injected (sprayed) into the cylinder at the ideal moment - this too is usually some degrees before TDC, and the red-hot air in there then starts the fuel burning. This then drives the piston down for the power stroke. SI is limited in maximum compression ratio (the amount the air or mixture is compressed as the piston rises in the cylinder), or it can start to behave like CI (Dieselling). CI uses the highest compression ratio possible to improve ignition - and - improve efficiency too...

CI is also an 'excess air' cycle, potentially. What is the difference between a diesel engine and a petrol engine. The major difference between diesel and gasoline is the way explosions happen.

What is the difference between a diesel engine and a petrol engine

In a gasoline engine, fuel is mixed with air, compressed by pistons and ignited by sparks from spark plugs. In a diesel engine, however, the air is compressed first, and then the fuel is injected. Because air heats up when it's compressed, the fuel ignites. In brief, a petrol engine uses sparks to ignite its fuel/air mixture but a diesel engine uses only air compression to ignite its fuel. Petrol engines use spark plugs to ignite the fuel which is a mixture of air and petrol. Over long periods of running-time a petrol engine can be allowed to turn (revolve) much faster than a diesel engine - thus delivering much more power from a given size engine - which is why diesel engines are not really suitable for use in race cars such as Formula 1. Until the latest electronic engine and fuel management systems became available, diesel engines used their fuel much more efficiently than equivalent-size petrol engines.
