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

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

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

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.
And diesel consumption per brake power is 0.2 kg.
That's why the running cost is more for petrol.
