2. Diesel generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_generator

   A 200 kW Caterpillar diesel generator set in a sound attenuated enclosure used as an emergency backup at a sewage treatment substation in Atlanta, United States. A diesel generator (DG) (also known as a diesel GenSet) is the combination of a diesel engine with an electric generator (often an alternator) to generate electrical energy. [1]

3. GE 25-ton switcher - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE_25-ton_switcher

   Power was generated using a 6-cylinder Cummins HBI-600 diesel engine producing 150 hp (110 kW) at 1,800 rpm. [6] This engine powered a single GE GT-1503 main generator, which in turn provided electricity to the single rear-mounted GE-733 traction motor which powered the rear axle.

4. Fairbanks Morse 38 8-1/8 diesel engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../8_diesel_engine

   The first Soviet mass-produced diesel locomotive, TE3, was powered by a 1470 kW (2000 hp) 2D100 engine, direct descendant of the marine 38 8-1/8 engine. The TE3 was produced in high numbers (up to 7600 units), and proved to be a reliable mainline freight locomotive. Later this engine evolved to the turbocharged 10D100, rated at 2200 kW (3000 hp).

5. Wärtsilä Vasa - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wärtsilä_Vasa

   The engines were used to provide electrical power for both propulsion and auxiliary services. Due to their ability to run on heavy fuel oil (HFO) or MDO (Marine Diesel Oil), many ships were equipped with the Vasa series engines. In the power generation industry, these engines are used as auxiliary generators or as backup power generators. [5]

6. Engine–generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine–generator

   An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined unit is simply called a generator. An engine–generator ...

7. Diesel engine - Wikipedia

   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 diesel 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).
