The RD-170 (Russian: Ракетный Двигатель-170 (РД-170), romanized: Raketnyy Dvigatel-170, lit. 'Rocket Engine-170') is the world's most powerful and heaviest liquid-fuel rocket engine.
The engine is the largest reciprocating engine in the world. The 14-cylinder version first entered commercial service in September 2006 aboard the Emma Mærsk . The design is similar to the older RTA96C engine, but with common rail technology (in place of traditional camshaft , chain gear , fuel pump and hydraulic actuator systems).
Wards 10 Best Engines is an annual list of the ten "best" automobile engines available in the U.S. market, that are selected by Wards AutoWorld magazine. The list was started in 1994 for model year 1995, and has been drawn every year since then, published at the end of the preceding year.

The high thrust cryogenic engine is the most powerful upper stage cryogenic engine in operational service. [ 7 ] Among the thrust levels for which CE-20 is qualified are 19 tonnes for ongoing satellite missions, 20 tonnes for the Gaganyaan , and an upgraded 22 tonnes for future launches like the Bharatiya Antariksha Station 's BAS-01 Base Module .
The effort continued with a 5,000 shp (3,700 kW), weighing 1,700 kg (3,700 lb), completed by 1947. Evolution to the TV-12 12,000 shp (8,900 kW) engine required extensive use of new Soviet-developed alloys and was completed in 1951. The NK-12 is the most powerful turboprop engine to enter service, ahead of the Europrop TP400 (in 2005).
Preliminary investigations and development of the engine and its further production were performed under the guidance of Valentin Glushko and finished in 1967. It became the most powerful engine in the world to date that used storable propellants.
