Laser Ignition System

Laser ignition has the ability to replace the conventional electric spark plugs in engine in comparison to conventional electric ignition and that’s why it has become the advanced as well as an active research topic among the researchers in few years. It is very helpful in allowing more flexible choice of the ignition to ignite even inside the fuel spray.

According to the team of researchers and Arya College of Engineering and IT, the modern engines have been required in order to operate under much higher compression ratios which should be faster compression rates as well as it is much linear fuel-to-air-ratios in comparison to the gas engines currently.

It has been anticipated by the team of researchers that the igniter in these kinds of engines will face the pressures much higher along with the temperatures. By using the conventional ignition system, there should be increase in the voltage as well as energy in order to reliably ignite the air as well as fuel mixture under these conditions.

As per the research, ignitability does not always been improved by increasing voltage and the technology but it is capable in creating greater reliability issues. The experiments of the researchers along with the direct injection engine have been carried out by the team to Automotive Engineering Emerging Trends the fundamental wavelength doubled system.

It has been shown by the experiments that above a definite intensity of the laser beam at the window along with highly polluted surfaces could be cleaned with the help of the first laser pulse that is essential for operation in real world engines.

The objective of the researchers behind this technology is to review the previous work in order to identify the some fundamental problems which are underlying the physics of the laser spark ignition processes as well as research needs for the purpose of bringing the laser ignition concept into the realm of reality.

The purpose of the research is to prove that laser spark ignition can also be used in the direct injection engines. Further reduction in the fuel consumption as well as the exhaust emission of the motor vehicles is being demanded by the economic and the environmental constraints.

According to the team of researchers with B Tech Automobile Engineering, the highest potential in reducing the fuel consumption has been shown by the direct injected fuel engines at the moment along with exhaust emissions but the conventional spark plug ignition can show a huge drawback along with the modern spray guided combustion processes.
