Injecting water and/or methanol into a diesel engine (gas, too) has been around for more than 75 years, but it didn't really have a good, practical application until WWII, when supercharged and ...

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 ...

There are plenty of ways to boost an engine's power, and most of them, like turbo-charging, supercharging, or Nitrous Oxide injection are well known to automotive enthusiasts. But what if we told you ...

High pressure common rail system can precisely control the injection time and injection pressure to improve the thermal efficiency of the engine. The injection characteristics of the system can affect ...

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 ...
