  2. Dieseling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieseling

    Dieseling (in the sense of engine run-on, and disregarding combustible gaseous mixtures via the air intake) can also occur in diesel engines, when the piston or seals fail due to overheating, admitting engine oil into the cylinder. A structurally failing diesel engine will often accelerate when the throttle is released, even after fuel ...

  3. 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 excessive fuel from an unintended source and overspeeds at higher RPMs, producing up to ten times the engine's rated output resulting in a catastrophic mechanical failure due to a lack of lubrication. [1]

  4. Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 megawatts.

  5. Wet stacking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_stacking

    Wet stacking is detectable by the presence of a black ooze around the exhaust manifold, piping and turbocharger, if fitted. It can be mistaken for lubricating oil in some cases, but it consists of the "heavy ends" of the diesel fuel which do not burn when combustion temperature is too low.

  6. Rudolf Diesel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolf_Diesel

    Rudolf Christian Karl Diesel (English: / ˈ d iː z əl ˌ-s əl /, [1] German: ⓘ; 18 March 1858 – 29 September 1913) was a German [note 1] inventor and mechanical engineer who invented the Diesel engine, which burns Diesel fuel; both are named after him.

  7. Water Resistant mark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Resistant_mark

    Immersion of the watch in 10 cm of water with a force of 5 N perpendicular to the crown and pusher buttons (if any) for 10 minutes. Condensation test. The watch shall be placed on a heated plate at a temperature between 40 °C and 45 °C until the watch has reached the temperature of the heated plate (in practice, a heating time of 10 minutes ...

  8. Diesel exhaust fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust_fluid

    Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF; also known as AUS 32 and sometimes marketed as AdBlue [3]) is a liquid used to reduce the amount of air pollution created by a diesel engine. Specifically, DEF is an aqueous urea solution made with 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water .

  9. Water in fuel sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_in_Fuel_Sensor

    A water in fuel sensor, or WiF sensor, is an electronic sensor used to indicate the presence of water in fuel.It is installed in a fuel filter.When the water level in the water separator reaches the warning level, the WiF sends an electrical signal to the ECU or to dashboard (lamp). [1]
