Learn more about the dangers of detonation and pre-ignition in an aircraft engine: damage to internal combustion engines. Detonation: When the ignition occurs at the correct time but burns the mixture burns too rapidly. When people see broken ring lands they mistakenly blame it on pre-ignition and overlook the hammering from detonation that caused the problem. Mark Langford's KR2S Project This is a well written account of engine trouble on takeoff. He came to the conclusion that the problem was detonation. RV Firewall Forward Section gt; Traditional Aircraft Engines There is much confusion over these two phenomena. The old Google Groups will be going away soon, but your browser is incompatible with the new version. High octane or premium gas burns slower than low-octane gas (regular gas). Key Definitions Detonation Detonation is the spontaneous combustion of the end-gas (remaining fuel/air mixture) in the chamber. a tech article on how to prevent detonation, pre-ignition and knock. Find all the details inside Kit Car Magazine.
ENGINE KNOCKING - WIKIPEDIA, THE FREE ENCYCLOPEDIA.
Summary: Be certain to use a gasoline with adequate octane quality to avoid engine damage or destruction. All high output engines are prone to destructive tendencies as a result of over boost, misfueling, mis-tuning and inadequate cooling. What is detonation and how does it affect the engine? Detonation refers to a type of abnormal combustion that is usually preceded by pre-ignition. What is detonation and how does it affect the engine? I've found an excellent article by Allen W. Cline (designer of the Northstar engine): Engine Basics: Detonation and Pre-Ignition. Written by Supercharged_ZQ8. As you probably have already figured out, detonation (aka knock) is a big issue in the world of forced induction. I recently got asked about what pinging is, and what the difference is between pre-ignition and detonation, what causes it, and why it is bad for an engine. All high output engines are prone to destructive tendencies as a result of over boost, misfueling, mis-tuning and inadequate cooling. The same damage can occur again unless the cause of the detonation or pre-ignition is corrected. Jim revisits the EFI question and delves into detonation issues. In my humble opinion, there is one thing more important then any other aspect of tuning a turbo car, and that's understanding and controlling detonation.

DETONATION AND PRE-IGNITION - VAF FORUMS - WELCOME TO DOUG REEVES.
This article was originally published in the January-February 2000 (Volume 10 Number 1) edition of Contact! Ask Dave What is pre-ignition and/or detonation? Octane is also directly related to the entire mix, as octane is defined by a fuel's resistance to pre-ignition. Warm weather and summertime brings out thousands of collector cars and special interest vehicles to cruise nights and car shows across our country. detonation and pre-ignition are about the same thing, they just happen at different times in the compression cycle. In a recent discussion on octane, people talk about the danger of preignition and It mostly depends on your motor timing. Without a doubt the single biggest barrier to high performance tuning is detonation. The octane thread got me thinking about pre-ignition vs. detonation. Fuel/Carb Related Fuels/Octane/Pre-ignition Detonation High octane or premium gas burns slower than low-octane gas (regular gas).
