The performance and combustion characteristics of a miniature two-stroke, glow ignition engine are investigated. The objective of the work is to determine the effects of three independent variables, namely: the proportion of nitromethane in the fuel, glow plug rating (‘cold’, ‘medium’ and ‘hot’), and air/fuel ratio, in order to improve understanding of the engine performance and combustion processes.Analysis of the data has shown that all of the parameters varied have an important effect on the performance and combustion characteristics of the engine. These effects include: These results may allow further investigation of the use of this type of engine for low power applications.
