  2. Carvone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carvone

    S-(+)-Carvone is the principal constituent (60–70%) of the oil from caraway seeds (Carum carvi), [8] which is produced on a scale of about 10 tonnes per year. [3] It also occurs to the extent of about 40–60% in dill seed oil (from Anethum graveolens), and also in mandarin orange peel oil.

  3. Detroit Diesel Series 71 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit_Diesel_Series_71

    The inline six-cylinder 71 series engine was introduced as the initial flagship product of the Detroit Diesel Engine Division of General Motors in 1938.. This engine was in high demand during WWII, necessitating a dramatic increase in output: about 57,000 6-71s were used on American landing craft, including 19,000 on LCVPs, about 8,000 on LCM Mk 3, and about 9,000 in quads on LCIs; and 39,000 ...

    Bore and stroke are the same across all units, at 3 + 7 ⁄ 8 in × 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (98 mm × 114 mm). These engines use a single camshaft per cylinder bank, paired with a balancing shaft for inline engines, or a second camshaft for the other cylinder bank in vee-block engines.

  5. Two- and four-stroke engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-_and_four-stroke_engines

    The shaft of the four-stroke piston rotates twice as fast as the shaft of the two-stroke piston, and the two-stroke part always runs at half speed. This ensures that both parts work optimally regarding fuel consumption at all times. The same principles apply to having two distinct engines, but the design of the M4+2 is much simpler.

    Levopropoxyphene is an antitussive.It is an optical isomer of dextropropoxyphene.The racemic mixture is called propoxyphene.Only the dextro-isomer (dextropropoxyphene) has an analgesic effect; the levo-isomer appears to exert only an antitussive effect.

    In 2001 the bore and stroke increased and the engine displacement rose to 14 L (854 cu in), with an increase in power output to 575 hp (429 kW) and a torque increase to 1,850 lb⋅ft (2,508 N⋅m). In 2004 the 14-Liter engine became the dominant platform in Freightliner over the road sleeper trucks and changed the ECM to a DDEC V.

  8. Glow fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_fuel

    Glow fuel is a fuel source used in model engines – generally the same or similar fuels can be used in model airplanes, helicopters, cars and boats. [1] Glow fuel can be burned by very simple two-stroke engines or by more complicated four-stroke engines, and these engines can provide impressive amounts of power for their very small size.

    The European models at this time included the Bradbury 3.5 hp (2.6 kW), the Brough HB, the Douglas 2.75 hp (2.05 kW) and 4 hp (3.0 kW) models, the Humber 3.5 hp and 6 hp (4.5 kW) models, the Matchless 6 hp, the Montgomery 6 hp, Williamson Flat Twin 8 hp (6.0 kW), and the Bayerische Flugzeugwerke Helios (the predecessor to BMW's first motorcycle).
