• Chester W. NimitzRelated: Nimitz developed expertise in diesel propulsion while serving on early submarines.

• Combustion chamberRelated: Fuel injection and air motion are central to its chamber design.

• TankRelated: Diesel engines commonly provide the torque needed to move heavy tanks.

• Cetane numberRelated: Fuel cetane quality affects starting, combustion timing, and operation in these engines.

• BusRelated: Many buses use diesel engines to provide sustained power for heavy loads and frequent stops.

• Dimethyl etherRelated: Dimethyl ether’s high cetane quality makes it a candidate compression-ignition fuel.

• Main battle tankRelated: Many tanks use diesel engines to provide high torque and practical battlefield range.
