Diesel engines in the UK can run on red diesel and rotate at 1,500 or 3,000 rpm. This produces power at 50 Hz, which is the frequency used in Europe. In regions where the frequency is 60 Hz such as in North America, generators rotate at 1,800 rpm or another divisor of 3600.
U.S. NRC image of a modern steam turbine generator (STG). In electricity generation, a generator [1] is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit.
A switched-mode power supply will be affected if the brownout voltage is lower than the minimum input voltage of the power supply. As the input voltage falls, the current draw will increase to maintain the same output voltage and current, until such a point that the power supply malfunctions or its under-voltage protection kicks in and disables ...
The GM High Feature engine (also known as the HFV6, and including the 3600 LY7 and derivative LP1) is a family of modern DOHC V6 engines produced by General Motors. The series was introduced in 2004 with the Cadillac CTS and the Holden Commodore (VZ). It is a 60° 24-valve design with aluminum block and heads and sequential multi-port fuel ...
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.

The High Value engine family from General Motors is a group of cam-in-block or overhead valve V6 engines.These engines feature cast iron blocks and aluminum heads, and use the same 60° vee bank as the 60° V6 family they are based on, but the new 99 mm (3.90 in) bore required offsetting the bores by 1.5 mm (0.059 in) away from the engine center line.
Warrior Run Generating Station, owned by the AES Corporation, was a 205 megawatt cogeneration plant located south of Cumberland, Maryland, United States, at 11600 Mexico Farms Road. In addition to electric power, the plant also produced food-grade carbon dioxide .
They are better known as the DAF 2800, 3300 and 3600. The cab was a wider development of the F218 , DAF's first tilt cab placed on among others 2500. The names reflect the cab width in centimetres, at 218 and 241 cm (86 and 95 in) respectively.
