The diesel engine would more efficient for the same temp and pressure and cost less.

But maintenance of diesel engine is more.

Because the petrol consumption per brake power is 0.25kg.
And diesel consumption per brake power is 0.2 kg.

That's why the running cost is more for petrol.

I didn't get, what is a homogeneous and heterogeneous mixture. Please explain it.

PILU said:   1 decade ago
Petrol engine requires homogeneous mixture for combustion and Diesel engine requires heterogeneous mixture for combustion.

So running cost of Diesel engine is more than Petrol engine.

I think running cost of diesel engine is higher than petrol.
