High-pressure common rail fuel (HPCR) systems are standard on nearly every diesel engine today, from heavy equipment to over-the-road trucks, light-duty trucks, large generators and more. HPCR fuel ...

The key ingredient to maximizing the peak performance of a diesel engine is increasing the amount of diesel being burned. On old mechanical-injection engines, the only way to do this was to modify the ...

Sandia National Laboratories researchers (left to right: Nathan Harry, Christopher Nilsen, Drummond Biles, and Charles Mueller) show off their prototype of ducted fuel injection module for diesel ...

Researchers have developed a promising yet surprisingly simple modification to diesel engines that could hold the key to reducing the complexity, maintenance, and size and weight of emission ...

If you’re in fleet management or the construction industry, you undoubtedly have machines that run on diesel fuel. In addition to large trucks, more than 75% of all heavy construction equipment uses ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 104, Section 3: JOURNAL OF ENGINES (1995), pp. 112-127 (16 pages) A computer model solving the 1-D flow in a typical fuel injection system for direct-injection diesel engines is ...

Most people know that internal combustion engines require a fuel source to run. For many passenger cars and trucks, that fuel source is gasoline. However, many commercial vehicles, boats, farming ...

Diesel engines use compression to ignite the fuel, which needs to have an even burn, and cetane boosters have an important ...

Fuel injector cleaner serves an important function in vehicle maintenance. Most vehicles sold today have fuel injectors. Those injectors work by delivering precise amounts of gasoline or diesel fuel ...
