If it's electric, it's not an engine, it's a motor. An engine converts the chemical power of fuel into heat through combustion. An electric motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy, usually by employing electromagnetic phenomena.

For those that don't know, here's a little tidbit of technical trivia associated with large mining trucks shown in the videos. The engines in those vehicles don't actually link via a transmission and drive shaft to the wheels. They're actually diesel engine generators that produce electricity, which in turn powers the motors in each of the wheel hubs. It's those electric motors that actually make the trucks move. But I'm still confused about the conversation about the GE "engine" mounted on the wind turbines. That's not an engine, as it doesn't run to create power. It's a generator that produces electricity, not an engine. It's gotta be hard producing videos that discuss topics that the video makers don't understand very well. This appears to be one of those types of videos.

You missed the most powerful "engine" there is.. the GE Harriet 9HA.02, which by itself generates 765,723 hp! When you use it as a combined cycle generator (using the exhaust to boil water that spins a steam turbine) it generates 1,123,777 hp!!
@jacksimpson-rogers1069
@jacksimpson-rogers1069 Жыл бұрын
1,123,777 hp is just about 838 MW (megawatts) Palo Verde nuclear power plant has three electric generators each producing 1,400 MW, each driven by a nuclear reactor supplying heat of about twice that power. Industrial steam IS a gas. A steam turbine is a "heat engine" governed by the strict laws of thermodynamics. So reactor power is given as MWth (thermal) and its electricity production as MWe.
@wanderschlosser1857
@wanderschlosser1857 10 ай бұрын
Electric generators are not engines they're the driven equipment. The driver in case of a nuke plant would be a steam turbine. However I wouldn't call that an engine either because it's only the gas (steam) to mechanical power converter not including the steam generator. The above mentioned gas turbine combines the gas generation out of chemical energy and the power conversion part, it can therefore actually be called an engine. I stick with the GE 9HA for being the most powerful engine.

The Caterpillar GCM34 is natural gas powered engine used in power generation that puts out 10 MW. Very useful as near instant backup power. Then depending how high you want to go and how far you want to stretch the definition of 'engine' the General Electric 9HA industrial gas turbine puts out 838 megawatts in combined cycle mode - which is a big city sized power output in one machine.

There were three engines running really gig generators. Two of them ran all the time, but not full speed for too long. One could handle all night, but you needed both during the day for air conditioning etc. Then they ran the backup unit when we overhauled one of the big ones. It was a very good experience. I'll never forget Mr Emil Slotten 👍 Excellent man. 🙏

Boeing was the first manufacturer to get their 2-engine 757 FAA certified for trans-oceanic flight. FFA requires all commercial aircraft must be able to stay flying with ONE engine shut down. You read it right - the 757 aircraft, fully loaded with cargo and people, stays in level flight with only ONE engine running. I was the project manager for Boeing's Jet Engine Test Stand switching system used at their huge Everett, WA plant for testing engines used on every commercial jet aircraft they manufacture. Engines weighed 10,000 pounds and produced 40,000 pounds of thrust each. Each plane has 7 miles of orange flight test wiring used only once - to FAA certify the aircraft to be flight worthy. Then the 7 miles of orange wiring/cables are all ripped out by a work crew..

The most powerful engine in the world is the GE9X, a high-bypass turbofan jet engine developed by GE Aviation. This mighty beast powers the Boeing 777X and boasts a maximum thrust of up to 330 KN, with a dry weight of 5800 kg. It features fuel burn reduction technology, which not only reduces engine noise but also makes it more efficient. Fun fact: The GE9X's fan is a whopping 123 inches in diameter, making it larger than the fuselage of a Boeing 737! So, if you're looking to power your next interdimensional spaceship or just want to impress your friends at a dinner party, the GE9X is the engine for you!

An atomic bomb test in Australia blew a Centurion tank 10 feet. It became Australia's first nuclear tank. It later saw service in Vietnam. The tank still exists. Centurion 169041 is likely the only tank in history to have been hit by an atomic blast and not only survive, but fight in combat afterwards. This tough old tank was designed to fight the Germans in WWII, but proved itself capable of standing up to a nuclear bomb too. This particular Centurion was subjected to a 10 kiloton nuclear bomb from a distance of around 400 meters in the Australian Outback. Test crews returned expecting to find pieces of what was once a Centurion scattered around the site, but they were shocked to the tank in one piece and still functional. Once refueled it drove off. Centurion 169041’s unique distinction of living through the test was reflected by its well-earned nickname: The Atomic Tank. Centurions were designed during WW2 to take on German Tiger and other tanks. To make it go they used a version of the Rolls Royce Merlin fighter engine. The war ended before they saw action.

A super charger uses engine horsepower to create more horsepower. A turbocharger uses excess exhaust heat to generate “free” horsepower that would otherwise be wasted. Turbochargers are therefore more efficient than superchargers. ICE’s are “heat” engines so heat is not their biggest enemy. In fact many thousands of degrees of heat is what makes internal combustion engines work.

Hey, Did you ever go to a physics class?? No! I thought to. Well weight moved over distance in time requires Horse Power. That is a fact, So an electric, Diesel, Coal fired, Oil fired engine (Admittedly depending on efficiency) requires the SAME AMOUNT OF ENERGY to move 1 ton, one mile in one minute. Trains do it more efficiently because of steel rails. Big boy produced 7000 - or more - horse power from one LOCOMOTIVE and there is no diesel engine capable of that today. In fact trains usually have FOUR diesel engines or = 4 times the pollution. The only reason they are popular is maintenance. It still takes TWO guys to run them safely. NOW they are running 1 or 2 more DPU engines in the middle of the trains. Don't dare talk about polluting when it comes to oil fired locomotives. Especially the Big Boys. As far as electrical energy - The grid can not support the load it has today never mind adding electric rail equipment to it. It could have been done before they shut down the nuke stations and the coal fired stations but no more, buddy - live with the truth, not the fantasy. Green is actually very brown.

Title says "Most powerful in the world", I didn't see such a thing. Didn't even see the Wartzilla (ap?), the enormous container ship engine. The one ship engine at the beginning was substantially smaller.

The engine that is demonstrated in Copenhagen was built in 1930, and was the largest engine THEN! The thing only weighed in at 1400 tons. The largest current ship's diesel engine (as at 2023) weighs in at 2,320 tonnes, and develops 109,000 hp!

Along with others, mentioned below in the comments... you should definitely have showcased the engines used in the T/F (= Top Fuel) class of sanctioned Drag Racing..... 11,000 HP(+or- just a few), and over 9,200 lbs ft of torque... out of 496 cubic inches of total displacement (V8)!! With class regulated minimum weight of 2,150 lbs (with driver)... traverse 1000 ft on a current "average" of 3.8 seconds at over 320 mph from a standing start. The Current record is 3.640 seconds at 338.94 mph. They reach 100 mph in 60 ft, in 0.8 seconds. Anyway... would be great if you would cover that (and more) in possible future videos. Also, try and learn more about your subject matter, before you post a video on it... there are numerous inaccuracies in this video.

Nahh, it's a bit longer than 4 seconds from the time the "burn-out" mag is lit, walk it through the "bleach box" (old term), do your burn-out, back it up, sit while the crew chief makes last second tuning adjustments to the main barrel valve, and engine "pit chief " unlocks the 2nd mag, then walk it to pre-stage, inch it to stage, then "hopefully" run on all eight for 3.8 secs.+/- .... adds up to a bit more than just 4 seconds. ; ) PS: I've never driven a T/F'r.. but I have owned and driven for myself and others, everything from the "real" Jr. Fuelers (late 60's to early 70's) up to TA/D's with a personal best of 6.179 @ 234.47.... and that was back in 1978!!

The 6-71 Gray Marine Diesel Engine sure looks a lot like the Detroit Deisel 6-71 that was used in semi trucks and off-highway trucks and construction equipment for several decades. Best known for turning diesel fuel into noise. (It even says "Detroit Deisel" on the valve cover.)

THReynolds2..... That's because they ARE Detroit Diesels. Back in that era, Gray Marine had the contract with GM Diesel Power (as branded until 1965) for producing all the necessary parts & converting them for Marine use. Gray Marine also utilized commercially available gas & diesel engines, not "just" the GM 2 cycles. Gray Marine was bought out by Continental Motors just after WW2, in 1946... and continued in operation until 1967. From 1967, forward... Detroit Diesel produced their own marine units "in house".

They were the same basic engine. The marine engine was tuned more for constant speed operation. Some of the external components were made of more corrosion resistant metals than the truck versions.

As far as.. quote "Some of the external components were made of more corrosion resistant metals than the truck versions."... none of the external engine components necessary to the basic function of the engine from the factory (GM Diesel) were any different than what was used in truck or heavy equipment, or any other myriads of applications.
