    Abnormal Combustion in CI Engine

    Uploaded by

    Prakash Katdare
    The document discusses abnormal combustion in compression ignition (CI) engines. It notes that abnormal combustion, also known as knocking, occurs when ignition delay is too long, resulting in uncontrolled combustion and irregular pressure rise. Knocking manifests as excessive vibration, noise, heat release and engine component damage. To control knocking, fuel additives are used to lower self-ignition temperature and accelerate ignition, while combustion chamber design aims to reduce physical and chemical delay times.

    Abnormal Combustion
    • Complete combustion in CI engines may be comprising of four distinct phases
    i.e. ‘ignition delay’ followed by ‘uncontrolled combustion,’ ‘controlled
    combustion’ and ‘after burning’.
    • Combustion generally becomes abnormal combustion in CI engines when the
    ignition delay is too large resulting into large uncontrolled combustion and zig-
    zag pressure rise.
    • Abnormal combustion in CI engines may also be termed as ‘knocking’ in engines
    and can be felt by excessive vibrations, excessive noise, excessive heat release,
    pitting of cylinder head and piston head etc.
    • In order to control the knocking some additives are put in CI engine fuel so as to
    reduce its’ self ignition temperature and accelerate ignition process.
    • Also, the combustion chambers are properly designed so as to have reduced
    physical and chemical delay.
