  2. Oil burner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_burner

    An oil burner is a part attached to an oil furnace, water heater, or boiler. [1] It provides the ignition of heating oil/biodiesel fuel used to heat either air or water via a heat exchanger . The fuel is atomized into a fine spray usually by forcing it under pressure through a nozzle which gives the resulting flame a specific flow rate, angle ...

  3. Oil burner (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_burner_(engine)

    Oil Burning Locomotive: Southern Pacific 2472 at the Niles Canyon Railway An oil burner engine is a steam engine that uses oil as its fuel. The term is usually applied to a locomotive or ship engine that burns oil to heat water, to produce the steam which drives the pistons, or turbines, from which the power is derived.

  4. GWR oil burning steam locomotives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GWR_oil_burning_steam...

    GWR No. 101 was an experimental 0-4-0 side-tank locomotive built at Swindon Works under the direction of Churchward in June 1902. Initially built as an oil-burning locomotive, it was rebuilt in 1905 as a coal burner, with the cab backplate replaced by a bunker.

  5. Industrial furnace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_furnace

    Furnace burner. The burner in the vertical, cylindrical furnace as above, is located in the floor and fires upward. Some furnaces have side fired burners, such as in train locomotives. The burner tile is made of high temperature refractory and is where the flame is contained. Air registers located below the burner and at the outlet of the air ...

  6. Fuel oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_oil

    Number 5 fuel oil is a residual-type industrial heating oil requiring preheating to 77–104 °C (171–219 °F) for proper atomization at the burners. [8] It may be obtained from the heavy gas oil cut, [7] or it may be a blend of residual oil with enough number 2 oil to adjust viscosity until it can be pumped without preheating. [8]

  7. Argand lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argand_lamp

    An Argand lamp used whale oil, seal oil, colza, olive oil [2] or other vegetable oil as fuel which was supplied by a gravity feed from a reservoir mounted above the burner. A disadvantage of the original Argand arrangement was that the oil reservoir needed to be above the level of the burner because the heavy, sticky vegetable oil would not ...

  8. Fuel viscosity control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_viscosity_control

    Fuel viscosity control is a technique to control viscosity and temperature of fuel oil (FO) for efficient combustion in diesel engines of motor vessels and generators of oil-fired power plants. Fuel oil's viscosity strongly depends on the temperature, the higher is the temperature the lower is the viscosity.

  9. LÉ Samuel Beckett - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LÉ_Samuel_Beckett

    Like the Róisín-class OPV, Samuel Beckett was designed by Vard Marine [15] to a VARD 7 series design. [16] [failed verification] Although similar to the Róisín-class OPV, Samuel Beckett is over 10 metres (33 ft) longer, intended to increase its capabilities in the rough waters of the North Atlantic. The ship is designed to carry a crew of ...
