What would happen if a Laser could sweep a 30 degree arc of the combustion chamber igniting 50% of the mixture in 1 crankshaft degree (or less) at 10,000 RPM ? Brian Savage Hmmm. Assuming 8 cylinders

Well, I don't think I'd pull the trigger at 34 degrees BTDC. Probably more like 0 to 10 degrees ATDC so that max pressure is at the same points ATDC that it is if a normal spark plug were used. The H

That's basically it Keith. We won't know how well it will work until it's actually tested because the combustion chemistry is so complex. Bryan

There wouldn't be any need for "sweeping the beam" if a cylindrical lens is used; it would generate a fan-shaped beam but the power density requirement would probably be pretty high to initiate comb

Brian, it is an interesting idea and you are right, ignition would definitely have to take place ATDC. However, I'm more interested in the "shape" of the pressure spike. Kind of the difference betwee

Yes, but all of the stress goes to making the crank turn in the right direction not trying to make it go backward. Bryan
