Why diesel engine given name diesel?
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.
