Abstract

In a diesel engme the soot produce because of incomplete fuel combustion happen in combustion chamber. Some of this soot will move to piston and slowly move downward were the lubricant oil is located. This soot make the lubricant oil become dirty and increase it viscosity. Until one moment, the oil lubricant has reach its limit in absorbing soot. As a result soot will be stick on the combustion chamber and lastly it will cause engine wear. Soot simulation research is done to create analysis of soot-size inside the combustion chamber of diesel engine. From this research, we can see the pattern concentration of soot-size inside the engine. This soot research is important because soot is very dangerous to engine and environment.
