There are many differences between diesel and gas engines, including some less obvious aspects of engine construction, such ...
Cold fusion, despite probably being impossible, is a good idea. Take a process known to create a meaningful amount of power and remove the harmful byproducts (like explosions), and you've got a winner ...
Westport's HPDI system uses a small diesel pilot injection to run primarily on natural gas while keeping familiar diesel ...
As demand climbs for more fuel-efficient vehicles, knowledge compiled over several years about diesel engines and a new strategy known as "low-temperature combustion" (LTC) might soon lead auto ...
There are numerous differences between diesel and gas engines, including the number of fuel filters each uses. Here's why ...
An experimental hydrogen engine developed by researchers at the University of Magdeburg offers better performance than diesel ...
Increasing environmental concerns due to pollution caused by the industrial sector, agricultural sector, transportation sector and power sector, and steadily increasing fossil fuel prices due to its ...
Regardless of whether it burns gasoline or diesel, your internal combustion engine works by igniting a mixture of fuel and air to create power. To do so effectively, it must reduce the detrimental ...
On August 9, 1898, Rudolf Diesel was issued a patent for his diesel internal combustion engine, a competitor to the gasoline engine at the time (see figure below from patent). Armed with an education ...
Diesel has had a rough go of it during the last few years, but an increasingly commonplace technology is working to change the fuel's image and make diesel vehicles viable for the future. Kyle Hyatt ...
Have you always wondered what separates a diesel-powered car from a gasoline-powered one? For starters, you’ll never need to change a diesel engine’s spark plugs or a gasoline engine’s glow plugs.
