Heat Released

The author discusses the various stages of combustion in diesel engines from experiments conducted by himself and also by various other research workers in this field. He then outlines the technique used in predicting heat released by the fuel during combustion in a diesel engine - a techniq ue on which he has worked during his Master's course at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. The technique consists of applying the first Law of Thermodynamics in steps of the period from inlet valve closure to exhaust valve opening. The First Law equation applicable is reformulated so as to be used on the digital computer.
