The designs for AHL Shipping Co.’s three new 617-foot, 330,000-barrel Jones Act tankers specify a diesel-electric propulsion system with state-of-the-art pulse-width modulation converter technology in medium voltage and two induction motors rated at 4.65 MW each. Construction of the vessels has not yet started.
Diesel Engine Air Intake Systems play a crucial role in the performance and efficiency of diesel engines. These systems are responsible for supplying clean and filtered air to the engine, ensuring optimal combustion and power output. A well-designed air intake system can improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and enhance overall engine
Cummins engines are internal combustion engines that use diesel fuel to generate power. The engine works by using a combination of air and fuel that is injected into the combustion chamber at high pressure. This causes an explosion, which powers the piston and turns the crankshaft. Cummins engines are renowned for their power and performance.
TAGS: engine Fuel How it works. The diesel fuel system comprises everything from the boat’s fuel tank to the engine’s fuel injectors. There are two distinct parts of the fuel system: that installed by the boat builder and that attached to the engine. The tank, primary filter and all the pipework to and from the engine are designed and
DEF is "Diesel Exhaust Fluid" and, as a matter of fact, modern diesels run just fine without it. DEF is instead concerned with what comes out of modern diesel engines. Diesels burn really lean
That means every 6.6L engine is run on a dyno before it ever goes in a truck. No other GM engine mass produced in North America gets that treatment-nor do the 6.7L Cummins or 6.7L Power Stroke
Using a tuner it is possible to increase gasoline or diesel engine performance up to 99 horsepower and 88 lb-ft of torque on a gas truck, and 120 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque on a diesel truck depending upon the model. Tuners extract this power by adjusting the operating conditions of the engine toward increased performance.
Engines fueled by gasoline work best a higher rpms, often exceeding 6,000 rpm. Meanwhile diesel engines will often redline at 4,500 to 5,000 rpm, at most. And while this greater number seems like a good thing, gasoline engines do twice the work as diesel motors for the same performance. This is why gasoline-powered engines experience more wear
