To our knowledge there is no any study discussing the carbonyl compounds in the emissions of ship engines operated with heavy fuel oil or distillate oils. In this study we investigated carbonyl compounds emission in the gas phase of a ship diesel engine fueled with heavy fuel oil (HFO) and ...
Diesel cars are more expensive to purchase outright, but they can be cheaper to operate and maintain in the long run. Diesel engines are more efficient than gas engines and require less fuel to travel the same distance. They also last longer, so you may not need to replace your diesel car...
Both petrol and diesel fuels are derived from crude oil that is found deep in the earth’s crust. Although both types of fuel are commonly used, diesel is generally used to power larger engines, such as those found in trucks, boats, and cranes, while petrol is used to power smaller engi...
Diesel engine oil has more additives per volume. The most prevalent are overbase detergent additives. These additives have several functions, but the primary ones are to neutralize acids and clean the oil in the sump. Diesel engines create a great deal more soot and combustion byproducts. Throug...
What are two major differences between vapor cycles (such as Rankine cycle) and gas cycle (such as Otto cycle)? Vapor and Gas Power Cycles Vapor and Gas have different fluids used in their respective cycles. These liquids are utilized for the different...
In other words, these firms were both first movers in introducing alternative fuels for diesel engines and offering gas engine vehicles as well as moving towards more radical technologies like plug-in hybrid trucks, fuel cell electric trucks, electric road systems, and battery-electric trucks. In ...
As we all know, various engine motors have been used to every corner where modern production exists. And there should be a power system for an engine start, such as a battery or other external systems (gasholder, cable, air compressor, manometer, accumulator, etc.). ...
The trio of operational Shivalik class frigates attains this speed through the combined power of two Pielstick 16 PA6 STC Diesel engines and two GE LM2500+ boost turbines, generating a total of 47,370 hp (35,320 kW). Characterised by their smaller size and agile design, corvettes are ...
A weird thing happened over the year we spent in the UK and Ireland in 2017/2018. When we changed the oil, it didn’t blacken for more than 100 hours. Very few things on a diesel engine get better with wear so we were scratching our head as to why an engine with 9,000 hours wou...
What are the differences between a waste gate and a BOV or blow off valve?We find that many people are confused by the two devices and see them wrongly used.There are two sides to a turbocharger, the exhaust flow side and the intake side....
