| | Diesel engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Driven by a computer (which also controls the amount of fuel to the pump), the valves, rather than pump timing, control the precise moment when the fuel injection into the cylinder occurs and also allow the pressure at which the fuel is injected into the cylinders to be increased. | | | Today (2005), the Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged two-stroke diesel engine is the most powerful and most efficient prime-mover in the world, with cylinder bores of 960 mm (37.8 in) and stroke of 2500 mm (98.4 in), producing up to 80,080 kW (107,389 hp) in the 14-cylinder configuration. | | | Their use of electronic ignition, fuel injection, and sophisticated engine management systems also makes them far easier to operate than mass-produced spark-ignition aircraft engines, most of which still use carburettors. |

| | Fuel System |
| | Mechanical fuel pumps are diaphragm pumps, mounted on the engine and operated by an eccentric cam usually on the camshaft. | | | Two types of fuel pumps are used in automobiles; mechanical and electric. | | | The function of the fuel system is to store and supply fuel to the cylinder chamber where it can be mixed with air, vaporized, and burned to produce energy. |

| | FAQ |
| | Low-temperature operability is the ability of the fuel to flow and to be pumped through diesel fuel system filters without plugging at low temperatures. | | | These differences come about because their respective applications differ; diesel fuels are used in internal combustion engines, heating oils in oil burners and kerosenes are used in lamps and non-vented heaters. | | | Cetane number (ignition quality), cleanliness, low-temperature operability and stability are the diesel fuel requirements of principal concern to you. |

| | Shell Canada - What is Diesel Fuel? |
| | Unfortunately, paraffins are in short supply, and diesel fuel manufacturing requires the use of heavier crude components which boil at higher ranges. | | | That requires the right mixture of light, quick-firing fuel components for easy starting and warmups and heavier, slower-burning components for mileage. | | | Crude oil compounds called paraffins meet this requirement and are the best for diesel blending, says Ken Mitchell, a research engineer at Shell's Calgary Research Centre. |

| | WASTE VEGETABLE OIL AS A FUEL |
| | The only requirement for diesel, is that the motor must be allowed to reach operating temperature before operating on triglyceride oils, and that the oil must be diluted or purged from the fuel pump before shutdown. | | | The fuel return line to the diesel tank was redirected to the fuel pump suction side between the solenoid valve and fuel pump. | | | The vehicle is first started on diesel and then when the engine has reached normal operating temperature and the oil has been heated, a solenoid valve is operated which switched the fuel system over to the oil. |

| | GTL fuels produced from pipeline supplied natural gas would not be competitive due to the higher value of pipeline supplied natural gas. | | | Some remote natural gas can now be economically converted through a GTL process into an ultra-clean fuel for diesel engines. | | | Converting natural gas to a liquid through a Fischer-Tropsch technology provides an opportunity to expand the use of the natural gas and lower the transportation cost from remote sources of low-cost gas. |

| | Make your own biodiesel: Journey to Forever |
| | Biodiesel is a clean, safe, ready-to-use, alternative fuel, whereas it's fair to say that many SVO systems are still experimental and need further development. | | | As with biodiesel, some kerosene or winterised petro-diesel fuel mixed with straight vegetable oil lowers the temperature at which it starts to gel. | | | Your diesel motor will run better and last longer on your home-made fuel, and it's much cleaner -- better for the environment and better for health. |

| | The RCI TECHNOLOGIES Fuel Purifier is a simple one step unit that removes 100% of the visible water and up to 98% of dust, dirt, and other normal and natural contaminations found in all diesel fuel. | | | By removing fuel contamination immediately before the fuel enters the engine's fuel filter system, the purifier delivers cleaner fuel, (virtually eliminating a clogged fuel filter) and therefore greatly extending maintenance intervals. | | | Unlike all other products on the market, the RCI TECHNOLOGIES Fuel Purifier performs this function without the use of a replaceable, changeable, or cleanable filter element, cartridge, or bowl. |
