ABOUT APPLICABILITY OF THE VOSHNI FORMULAFOR AIR COOLING DIESELS OF LARGE DIMENSION
The results of the verification of the applicability of the Voshni formula for diesel engines of air cooling of large dimension are presented. The verification is performed by comparing the calculated and experimentally obtained values of the fraction of heat lost in the wall of the combustion chamber. The heat dissipation curves plotted on the basis of processing the diesel indicator diagram are given. The positive conclusion is made about the applicability of the Voshni formula for determining the value of the heat transfer coefficient in the combustion chamber of air-cooled diesel engines of large dimension.
