2. Common rail - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_rail

   Diesel fuel injector as installed in a MAN V8 Diesel engine. Common rail direct fuel injection is a direct fuel injection system built around a high-pressure (over 2,000 bar or 200 MPa or 29,000 psi) fuel rail feeding solenoid valves, as opposed to a low-pressure fuel pump feeding unit injectors (or pump nozzles).

3. Diesel fuel tanks in trucks - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_fuel_tanks_in_trucks

   This requires a quality assurance test to identify the possibility of leaks. A common procedure in the industry is to perform a pressure test on the tank. All holes are temporarily plugged and the fuel tank is pressurized with air. A gauge is used to monitor the air pressure. A drop in pressure reveals a leak in the tank.

4. 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).

5. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

   A hydrostatic test is a way in which pressure vessels such as pipelines, plumbing, gas cylinders, boilers and fuel tanks can be tested for strength and leaks. The test involves filling the vessel or pipe system with a liquid, usually water, which may be dyed to aid in visual leak detection , and pressurization of the vessel to the specified ...

6. Crankcase dilution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_dilution

   The way to test the flash point of the oil is to manually take a sample and use a testing kit. When the fuel leaks into the lube oil the chemical makeup is different than the normal lube oil. Another way to test for crankcase dilution is to use a SAW to test the concentration of fuel oil in the crankcase oil. [5] SAW stands for surface acoustic ...

7. Diesel fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_fuel

   Due to the higher density, diesel fuel offers a higher volumetric energy density: the density of EN 590 diesel fuel is defined as 0.820 to 0.845 kg/L (6.84 to 7.05 lb/US gal) at 15 °C (59 °F), about 9.0-13.9% more than EN 228 gasoline (petrol)'s 0.720–0.775 kg/L (6.01–6.47 lb/US gal) at 15 °C, which should be put into consideration when ...
