ABSTRACT Due to its ease of use in diesel engines, its presumably lower carbon footprint, and its potential as a renewable fuel, biodiesel has attracted considerable attention in technological ...
The clearances inside diesel injection system parts are closer than those found in any other technology. The plungers and needle valves in injectors need to fit tightly to ensure precise metering and ...
Formation of pollutants from diesel combus tion and methods for their control have been re viewed. Of these methods, fuel injection rate and timing were selected for a parametric study relative to ...
The key ingredient to maximizing the peak performance of a diesel engine is increasing the amount of diesel being burned. On old mechanical-injection engines, the only way to do this was to modify the ...
A team of engineers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney has figured out a way to run a diesel engine on a mix of diesel and hydrogen, dramatically lowering its emissions. Why do we ...
As part of an overall environmental strategy initiated 2 years ago to reduce its environmental "footprint" worldwide, Noble Corp., Houston, has targeted its diesel-powered drilling rigs for total ...
There are many advantages that make 5.9L Cummins-powered '98 1/2 to '02 Dodge Rams very desirable trucks—especially from an engine standpoint. First, the engines don't have the killer dowel pin ...
UNSW researchers have prototyped and tested a retrofit system that converts diesel engines to run on 90% hydrogen, radically reducing both carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide emissions while boosting ...
The once-almighty Mitsubishi Motors may have relegated themselves to building cheap small cars and Nissan-derived crossovers, but it was an indomitable powerhouse of innovation back in the day.
