SKYACTIV - X is the world's first commercial gasoline engine to
use compression ignition, in which the fuel - air mixture ignites spontaneously when compressed by the piston
The new gas engine, dubbed SkyActiv - X, will
use compression ignition in addition to the standard spark ignition to achieve a super lean burn.
«The new gas engine, dubbed SKyActiv - X, will
use compression ignition rather than the standard spark ignition to achieve a super lean burn».
The next - gen Mazda3 will employ the 2.0 - litre SKYACTIV - X, the world's first commercial engine to
use compression ignition.
Mazda has revealed that it will introduce a new gas engine that
uses compression ignition as part of its long - term tech development dubbed «Sustainable Zoom - Zoom 2030.»
The biggest difference from today's car is the infotainment system that lives inside the interior of the dash instead of the current floating tap at look Power in he Kai concept is Mazda's Skyactiv - X engine, which is a gas engine that
uses a compression ignition system similar to a diesel.
This concept will feature Mazda's upcoming SkyActiv - X powertrain, which will be the first mass - produced gas engine that
uses compression ignition.
Mazda says they're ready to mass produce a «gasoline» engine
using compression ignition.
In other words, because a spark plug is now being used at all times, the engine can switch seamlessly between combustion
using compression ignition and combustion using spark ignition.
Not exact matches
I assume that this is because diesels
use compression for
ignition, and the lower air pressure reduces the effective
compression.
Using a technology called spark controlled
compression ignition, or SPCCI, Mazda claims it will offer significant real - world gains in terms of efficiency, cleanliness and performance over the company's existing Skyactiv petrol and diesel powerplants.
The
compression ignition part means that instead of
using spark plugs, the action of squeezing the mixture during the piston up - stroke is enough to auto - ignite the mixture — just like a diesel engine.

compression ignition timing,
using a little device called a spark plug.

compression ignition can take place (in terms of engine load and rpm) now covers the whole combustion range.
This new combustion method does not merely
use spark
ignition to assist
compression ignition, but delivers an all - encompassing combustion control system which includes control of in - cylinder temperature and pressure and control of the fuel injection's air - fuel mixture distribution density and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR).
These are followed by the combustion turbine (9.30 quads), which is primarily for power generation and transportation (aviation), and the
compression -
ignition engine (6.78 quads), which is primarily for transportation but also has some
uses in power generation.
