Does a diesel vehicle save you money? Not always‚ but diesels get great fuel mileage‚ twenty to thirty percent20-30% better than a gas. Aa gas powered pickup truck is lucky to get better than twelve12 or thirteen miles per gallon‚13 mpg while the same model diesel will get eighteen18 miles per gallonmpg or better. Tthis is due to the chemical properties of gasoline and diesel. A diesel has more potential energy in it than gas does so it takes less fuel to get the same amount of useable energy.

II. MECHANICAL STRUCTURE Both being internal combustion type diesel and gasoline engines can be considered as similar. Simply‚ both engines converts chemical energy into mechanical one by burning fuel. In combustion engines the combustion (explosion of fuel) occurs at combustion chamber with ‚ generally‚ help of oxidizer (air‚ another fluid‚ etc.). The output‚ high heat and pressure of the burning process is transfered to other components of the engines which expose pressure as a mechanical energy

Welly 1 Quinn Welly Fr. Hudgin Mythology 4 December 2013 The Diesel Engine: Making a Comeback The diesel engine has provided the world with cheap and efficient power for over one hundred years. The invention was first thought up by Rudolph Diesel in 1892. He wanted to create an engine that would be more efficient than the steam engine‚ which was only 12% efficient. He filed for a patent in Germany in February of 1892. He was granted a patent for a “Working Method and Design for Combustion

| Fossil Fuel: Natural Gas | Renewable resource: Wind Power | Describe this resource | Natural Gas in a Hydrocarbon gas that is naturally occurring. It consists of mostly methane and is used as fuel for some vehicles and heating the home. | Wind power is one of the cleanest sources of electricity. It usually involves a fan that spins‚ and the energy is transported to a generator. | Advantages of this resource (include at least two) | 1. Very abundant underground.2. Is cleaner than most other

Biodiesel‚ a promising substitute as an alternative fuel has gained significant attention due to the finite nature of fossil energy sources and does not produce sulfur oxides and minimize the soot particulate in comparison with the existing one from petroleum diesel. The utilization of liquid fuels such as biodiesel produced from vegetable oil by transesterification process represents one of the most promising options for the use of conventional fossil fuels. In the first step of this experimental research

Common Rail Diesel Engine To be honest‚ I don’t really know too much about the history or the functions and operations of a diesel engine‚ but I am excited about learning more about it through this assignment and when we go to study it in detail during class. History The evolution of Diesel injections actually began from the invention of the gasoline engine. The gasoline engine wasn’t very efficient‚ even worse than the steam engine. Only around 10% of fuel used in

autos an additional 100 years? Will we raze our forests for our energy needs? I certainly hope our country will never come to those conclusions. However‚ someone must make a conclusion hopefully toward an alternate fuel source. The fuel source I would propose is biomass fuel derived from hemp. Hemp is the world’s most versatile plant. It actually improves the soil in which it grows‚ without chemical fertilizers‚ while choking out weeds by virtue of its fast dense growth. According to the
