Question

combustion in compression ignition engine is

Answer 1

The diesel engine also known as compression ignition or CI engine, named after Rudolf diesel, is an internal combustion engine in which ignition of the fuel which is injected into the combustion chamber is caused by the elevated temperature of the air in the cylinder due to mechanical compression.

Answer 2

ln diesel engine the combustion take place due to compression of air in compression stroke.

The compression is the one of the most important stroke in diesel engine or petrol engine. Usually 2nd stroke in 4- stroke engines

Compression stroke provide the ignition temperature inside the cylinder bore.

And in diesel engine the combustion of fuel take place due to high compression ratio (16-21)
