What is the horsepower of the ZS1115 diesel engine?
1 Answers
ZS1115 diesel engine's specific horsepower depends on its power output, with two variants available: 20 horsepower and 22 horsepower. The ZS1115 model with a power output of 16.2KW has 22 horsepower, while the 14.7kW version delivers 20 horsepower. The ZS1115 is a direct-injection single-cylinder diesel engine with a rated power of 16.2KW, featuring advantages such as high horsepower, fuel efficiency, good parts compatibility, and high reliability. Below is a related introduction to diesel engines: Diesel engines offer the benefits of high torque and excellent fuel economy. Each working cycle of a diesel engine also goes through four strokes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. However, since diesel fuel has higher viscosity than gasoline and is less volatile, with a lower auto-ignition temperature, the formation of the combustible mixture and the ignition method differ from those of gasoline engines. The mixture in a diesel engine's cylinder ignites by compression. During operation, only air enters the cylinder. When the air in the cylinder is compressed to its maximum, the temperature can reach 500-700°C, and the pressure can reach 40-50 atmospheres. Therefore, diesel engines are widely used in large diesel vehicles.
