As the title says, why diesel engines produce less CO2 than gasoline engines and how is this related to the more torque and less power in diesel engines?
PLEASE only a fluid dynamics or thermodynamics approach.
Spent hours on searching to find why petrol engines produce more CO2 emissions (or vise versa) but nothing on the web.
I understand the standard explanations on longer stroke, more RPM, higher compression ratio but I am not looking on this kind of stuff.
I am looking for a thermodynamic approach with efficiencies, mass flow rate etc.
Any kind of help will be appreciated.
