When you cut to the basic principles of heavy-duty trucks it comes down to return on investment: maximum mpg, meeting emissions requirements and the truck running at optimum conditions and ...

SAE International Journal of Engines, Vol. 2, No. 1 (2009), pp. 77-82 (6 pages) ABSTRACT Automotive manufacturers and engineers have paid attention to promoting engine performance with low emissions ...

Diesel engines typically have beefier, more robust cooling components to keep the motor cool in varying conditions. Modern diesels operate at a higher compression ratio, which makes their combustion ...

The continuous drive for enhanced efficiency and reliability in modern diesel engines has prompted extensive research into the thermal management of critical components such as pistons. The ...

Failure to properly maintain your cooling system is a leading cause of catastrophic diesel engine problems, accounting for approximately 40% of engine failures. The damage being done is difficult to ...

The fields along America’s highways once covered in frost are now fully sprinkled in morning dew, indicating spring has sprung and summer is on its way. Soon, sweltering heat will pour down from the ...

When an internal combustion engine burns fuel, heat is created at temperatures as high as 4000°F (2200°C). This heat must be removed by some form of cooling. The two most common ways to dissipate heat ...
