Evolution of Otto’s Engine • In 1876 Otto built an internal-combustion engine utilizing the four-stroke cycle (four strokes of the piston for each ignition). • Because of its reliability, its efficiency, and its relative quietness, Otto’s engine was an immediate success. • More than 30,000 of them were built during the next 10 years. • In 1893, the Benz Velo became the world's first inexpensive, mass-produced car. • 12000 unites were produced. • 0.7 hp and 958cc!!!
The Historical Event in Automobiles • The Mercedes 35 HP (German: Mercedes 35 PS) was a radical early car model designed in 1901. • Engine volume: 5,918CC. • The racecar was of a disappointing performance by multiple technical complications and enduring just for few laps. • Inclusion of radiator for engine cooling. • The three-horsepower, curved-dash Oldsmobile surpassed the steam Locomobile as America’s best-selling car in 1902, when 2,750 of them were sold.
Road Steam Disappeared in Second Decade of 20th Century • Petrol lorries were starting to show better efficiency and could be purchased cheaply as war surplus. • On a busy route a 3-ton petrol lorry could save about £100 per month compared to its steam equivalent, in spite of restrictive speed limits, and relatively high fuel prices and maintenance costs. • Road steam disappeared through becoming uneconomical to operate.

Rudolf Christian Karl Diesel • Diesel published a treatise entitled, Theory and Construction of a Rational Heat-engine to Replace the Steam Engine and Combustion Engines Known Today. • This formed the basis for his work on and invention of, the diesel engine. • In his engine, fuel was injected at the end of compression and the fuel was ignited by the high temperature resulting from compression.
A Brief History of the Diesel’s Engine • 1897 -- Diesel built the first diesel engine at the Augsburg Maschinenfabrik . • 1898 -- Rudolph Diesel, filed a patent application • The single cylinder engine was used to power stationary machinery. • It weighed five tonnes and produced 20 hp at 172 rpm! • The engine operated at 26.2% efficiency, a very significant improvement on the 20% achieved by the best gasoline engines of the time.

Thermal Efficiency of Diesel Engine rc=1 rc=2 rc=3 Typical CI Engines 15 < r < 20 When rc (= v3/v2)1 the Diesel cycle efficiency approaches the efficiency of the Otto cycle
Structure of Efficient Diesel Cycle Higher efficiency is obtained by adding less heat per cycle, Qin, run engine at higher speed to get the same power.
Multi Cylinder Diesel Engines • 1922 Benz introduces a 2-cylinder, 30 hp 800 rpm tractor engine. • 1924 Benz introduces a 4-cylinder, 50 hp 1000 rpm truck engine. • 1960- 1970 Peugeot introduces the 404 Diesel followed by the 504 Diesel and the 204 Diesel, the first diesel-powered compact car

The Latest News • The world’s biggest engine is the Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96. • It’s the largest internal combustion engine ever built by man. • Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C is a 14-cylinder, turbocharged diesel engine that was specially designed to power the Emma Maersk which is owned by the Danish Maersk. • Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96, the world’s biggest engine, has a weight of 2.3 million kilogrammes. • For the marine application that has a 2.5 m stroke, the engine speed is limited to 102 rpm.
Economies of Scale in Sea Transportation • Maersk Lines have done the world proud by providing cheap sea transportation that is costing cents instead of a dollar per every kg weight. • They are able to do this by using economies of scale in sea transportation. • It is getting cheaper to ship goods from USA to China and from China to USA. • It has now become cheaper to transport goods from China to a US port than to transport the same goods from a US port to the final destination inland of US by a truck.
Type of Fuel Vs Combustion Strategy • Highly volatile with High self Ignition Temperature: Spark Ignition. Ignition after thorough mixing of air and fuel. • It’s a Baby Care combustion. • Less Volatile with low self Ignition Temperature: Compression Ignition , Almost simultaneous mixing & Ignition. • It’s a Teen Care combustion.
Need for Fuel Injection in SI Engine • One of the main factors to achieve near complete combustion and better engine performance is the generation of a homogenous mixture of air and fuel in the cylinder. • The most of fuel should evaporate in the ports and mix with the inlet air. • Formation a liquid fuel layers at the port and the cylinder walls should be minimized. • The better solution is injection of fuel even in in the inlet port of gasoline (SI) vehicles using MPFI system.
