    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microturbo_TRI-40

    The TRI-40 engine is a modified version of the Microturbo TRI 60 class of small turbojets, designed to be smaller and lighter for new missiles. It is currently being used on the Kongsberg Naval Strike Missile (NSM) for the Royal Norwegian Navy and the updated MM-40 Exocet Block 3 anti-ship missile.

  3. Fuel oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_oil

    Fuel oils include heavy fuel oil (bunker fuel), marine fuel oil (MFO), furnace oil (FO), gas oil (gasoil), heating oils (such as home heating oil), diesel fuel, and others. The term fuel oil generally includes any liquid fuel that is burned in a furnace or boiler to generate heat ( heating oils ), or used in an engine to generate power (as ...

  4. Stratified charge engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratified_charge_engine

    Better fuel distribution and better fuel charge inside the combustion chamber; During the injection process the fuel gets evaporated, cooling the cylinder chamber; Cooling effect of the pressurized fuel allows for use of a lower octane fuel leading to a cost savings for the end user; Higher compression ratios, which translates into more power

  5. Tractor vaporising oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tractor_vaporising_oil

    Tractor vaporising oil (TVO) is a fuel for petrol-paraffin engines. It is seldom made or used today. It is seldom made or used today. In the United Kingdom and Australia , after the Second World War , it was commonly used for tractors until diesel engines became commonplace, especially from the 1960s onward.

  6. Diesel engine runaway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_engine_runaway

    Diesel engine runaway is an occurrence in diesel engines, in which the engine draws extra fuel from an unintended source and overspeeds at higher and higher RPM, producing up to ten times the engine's rated output until destroyed by mechanical failure or bearing seizure due to a lack of lubrication. [1]

  7. Crankcase dilution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_dilution

    Crankcase dilution occurs when the fuel oil from the engine gets into the lube oil of the engine. This can be caused by the walls being wetted due to the fuel condensing in the cylinder. If the engine is cold, or there is an excess amount of cooling around the cylinder, [ 1 ] the fuel oil will condense and have a higher chance to end up in the ...

  8. Gasoline direct injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_direct_injection

    The fuel being injected was described as being in vapour phase having been heated by the engine cylinder. The pressure of the fuel was regulated at the fuel pump, and the amount of fuel admitted was controlled by mechanical means at the rotary admission valve. It seems this radical design wasn't taken further by F. E. Baker.
