Direct injection is all the rage these days. It has become the most significant development in internal combustion engines since, well, fuel injection. But the difference between the two is more ...

Direct injection, as the name suggests, refers to a type of fuel system which introduces fuel directly into an engine's combustion chambers. This differentiates it from conventional injection systems ...

For Part II, covering the valvetrain, exhaust, and cylinder heads: click here. For Part III, covering the block, crankshaft and lubrication systems: click here. To properly fathom the lengthy, ...

Gasoline direct injection, or GDI, is one of the most crucial bits of technology in the modern internal combustion engine. In engines equipped with GDI, highly pressurized gasoline is sprayed directly ...

Direct fuel injection isn't exactly a new idea. It's actually been around since World War II, when it was used on aircraft engines designed by the Germans and Russians and has been used in diesel ...

I started driving when the vast majority of cars still had points ignitions. I've lived through the mid-'70s transition to electronic ignitions, then 10 years later had to learn a bunch of new tricks ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The hydrogen combustion characteristics have been studied in a late–injection (near TDC) hot surface ignition engine. As a supplemental ...

It was a red Lamborghini Countach, parked with its scissor doors open to let the sunlight in, what most probably sparked Alex's love for cars. Even though he was less than three years old when he saw ...

In direct-injection gasoline (GDI) engines with charge stratification, minimizing engine-out nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission is crucial since exhaust-gas aftertreatment tolerates only limited amounts of ...

How does direct fuel injection work? Instead of having injectors in a throttle body, or in the intake manifold, a direct injection system makes use of an injector that fires into the combustion ...
