Why diesel engines need higher compression than gas engines
Diesel engines do their hardest work in the toughest jobs, from highway semis to construction equipment, and the reason they ...
For more than a decade, automotive engineers and researchers have been struggling to come to grips with a way to build an engine that runs on gasoline while harnessing the efficiency and torque ...
ABSTRACT This study investigated neat n-butanol combustion, emissions and thermal efficiency characteristics in a compression ignition (CI) engine by using two fuelling techniques - port fuel ...
Let's discuss something that is well known by diesel mechanics and hard-core enthusiasts but may not be fully understood by new diesel owners or people who may have heard the term "compression ...
