One gallon of diesel fuel is equal to 139,200 BTU. The man who invented the compression-ignition engine was Rudolf Diesel. This is where diesel fuel gets its name.
Rudolf Diesel. Yes he invented the engine. The fuel came later and was named after him but he didnt invent diesel fuel. His wife insisted he name the engine after himself, he didnt want to.
The word "diesel" comes from the name of the German inventor Rudolf Diesel. He designed the diesel engine in the late 19th century as an efficient alternative to steam engines. The term became widely used to refer to vehicles and engines powered by this technology.
They are in no ways related. They don't have the same last name, mother, birth state, residency, and have likely never met. "Diesel" is a stage name for both.
This comes after the name of Rudolf Diesel who succeeded to build his well-known high-compression prototype engine in 1897. Rudolf Diesel was credited with this innovation.The diesel engine (also known as a compression-ignition engine) is an internal combustion engine that uses the heat of compression to initiate ignition and burn the fuel that has been injected into the combustion chamber. This contrasts with spark-ignition engines such as a petrol engine (gasoline engine) or gas engine (using a gaseous fuel as opposed to gasoline), which use a spark plug to ignite an air-fuel mixture.
I don't think so. Vin Diesel is not his real name. His real last name is Vincent.
