DIESEL ENGINES In all fields the modern high speed Diesel engine burns a large portion of its fuel at constant volume requiring an automatic control of timing of fuel injection. This is necessary to prevent excessive explosion pressures and is especially true of the variable speed Diesel engine. This sontrol system has the necessary power to actuate desired controls without servo-motors. | ||
