  2. Shutdown valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shutdown_valve

    A blowdown valve (BDV) is a type of shutdown valve designed to depressurize a pressure vessel by directing vapour to a flare, vent or blowdown stack in an emergency. BDVs fail-safe to the open position upon failure of the control system. [1] The type of valve, type of actuation and performance measurement are similar to an ESD valve.

  3. Compression release engine brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_release_engine...

    A compression release engine brake, compression brake, or decompression brake is an engine braking mechanism installed on some diesel engines. When activated, it opens exhaust valves to the cylinders, right before the compression stroke ends, releasing the compressed gas trapped in the cylinders, and slowing the vehicle.

  4. Compression release - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_release

    The most common kind of small engine compression release uses a camshaft mounted mechanical lever that pushes the exhaust valve tappet slightly, venting engine compression through the exhaust valve. Once the engine spins to starting speed, centrifugal force causes the lever to move out of the way, and the exhaust valve is allowed to seat fully.

  5. Active Fuel Management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Fuel_Management

    Active Fuel Management (formerly known as displacement on demand (DoD)) is a trademarked name for the automobile variable displacement technology from General Motors.It allows a V6 or V8 engine to "turn off" half of the cylinders under light-load conditions to improve fuel economy.

  6. Ford Power Stroke engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Power_Stroke_engine

    A 2.8L diesel engine was developed by Navistar/International from an inline-four Land Rover Defender diesel 2.5L engine, with 130 hp (97 kW) (waste gate) or 133 hp (99 kW) (VNT). A 3.0L displacement version, with common-rail fuel injection, four-valve-per-cylinder heads, and 160 hp (119 kW) (wastegate turbo), is the electronic version of the ...

  7. Electronic Diesel Control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Diesel_Control

    The mechanical fly-weight governors of inline and distributor diesel fuel injection pumps used to control fuel delivery in diesel engines under a variety of engine loads and conditions could no longer deal with the ever-increasing demands for efficiency, emission control, power and fuel consumption. These demands are now primarily fulfilled by ...

  8. Dieseling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieseling

    The ignition source of a diesel engine is the heat generated by the compression of the air in the cylinder, rather than a spark as in gasoline engines. The dieseling phenomenon occurs not just because the compression ratio is sufficient to cause auto-ignition of the fuel, but also because a hot spot inside the cylinder (spark plug electrode ...

  9. Fast fuel system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_fuel_system

    This includes mining, heavy construction, busses and railroad. Most larger earthmoving and mining vehicles with diesel fuel tanks over 150 US gallons (570 L) are equipped with a refueling Fast Fill System. These refueling Fast Fill Systems utilize an automatic shut off fuel nozzle, receiver and level control device.
