Who invented the diesel engine?

Answer 1

The Diesel engine was invented by Rudolf Christian Karl Diesel, a German inventor born in France. He designed a single 3 m iron cylinder with a flywheel at its base which ran on its own power for the first time in Augsburg, Germany on 10 August 1893.

Another answer

Rudolf Christian Karl Diesel, a German inventor who was born in France, invented and patented a new kind of internal combustion engine in Augsburg, Germany.

It was given the name "Diesel engine" because he invented it.

It ran under its own power for the first time in Augsburg, Germany on 10 August 1893. It was designed as a 3 meter iron cylinder in which a single piston reciprocated, driving a flywheel at its base, and used very high compresssion of the air and fuel mixture to ignite the fuel.

The diesel engine was a new design because it did not need an electrical spark-ignition system as was necessary for the internal combustion engine (which had been invented by another German engineer, Karl Benz).

YET ANOTHER ANSWER

Herbert Akroyd Stuart designed and built a heavy oil engine in 1886. His engine design, operated as designed by him, that is, burning heavy oil as a fuel without the use of a spark ignition system, was the world's first viable heavy oil burning engine. Such fuel later became known as "diesel" and engines that ran using such fuel became known as "diesel engines", of which Herbert Akroyd Stuart designed and built the first and, for a long time, the best. This engine, with improvements, was put into production in 1891 with the Hornsby company of England and was commercially available in 1892.
