2. Power band - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_band

   Power band. The power band of an internal combustion engine or electric motor is the range of operating speeds under which the engine or motor is able to output the most power, that is, the maximum energy per unit of time. This usually means that maximum acceleration can be achieved inside this band (often at the cost of lower efficiency).

3. Diesel fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_fuel

   Diesel fuel has many colloquial names; most commonly, it is simply referred to as diesel.In the United Kingdom, diesel fuel for road use is commonly called diesel or sometimes white diesel if required to differentiate it from a reduced-tax agricultural-only product containing an identifying coloured dye known as red diesel.

4. Constant speed drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_Speed_Drive

   Constant speed drive for Boeing 727, made by Sundstrand Corporation. A constant speed drive (CSD) also known as a constant speed generator, is a type of transmission that takes an input shaft rotating at a wide range of speeds, delivering this power to an output shaft that rotates at a constant speed, despite the varying input.

   Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C. The Wärtsilä RT-flex96C is a two-stroke turbocharged low-speed diesel engine designed by the Finnish manufacturer Wärtsilä. It is designed for large container ships that run on heavy fuel oil. Its largest 14-cylinder version is 13.5 meters high, 26.59 meters long, weighs over 2,300 tonnes, and produces 80.08 ...

6. Diesel engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_engine

   1952 Shell Oil film showing the development of the diesel engine from 1877. The diesel engine, named after the German engineer Rudolf Diesel, is an internal combustion engine in which ignition of the fuel is caused by the elevated temperature of the air in the cylinder due to mechanical compression; thus, the diesel engine is called a compression-ignition engine (CI engine).

7. Diesel engine runaway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_engine_runaway

   Diesel engine runaway is an occurrence in diesel engines, in which the engine draws extra fuel from an unintended source and overspeeds at higher and higher RPM, producing up to ten times the engine's rated output until destroyed by mechanical failure or bearing seizure due to a lack of lubrication. [1] Hot-bulb engines and jet engines can also ...
