Built in 1932, it was the world's largest diesel engine for more than 30 years.
The eight cylinder engine is still operational and produces 15.000kW (22.500hp).
Production Name: DM 884WS-150
Further information: dieselhouse.dk
Video information: Recorded in early 2013 in 1080p, 50fps, AVCHD

Grandpa the Grey waste isn't really waste. Most of the "Waste in a reactor is unused fuel. A LFTR reactor (not yet in use yet) can eat other reactors waste and its waste only sticks around for 10-300 years and a byproduct is a substance that can be used for fighting leukemia. Also portable reactors are feasible, its just people are too scared of nuclear to see past the medias overreactions. Trust me I'm going to college for nuclear engineering pretty soon. I know what I'm talking about. But until LFTRs are put into use really reliable earth-raping diesels will be used.

David Vermillion I've worked (Electrical Engineer, switchgear design) at three nuclear power plants while they were under construction. All three had diesel power plants for back up/on site power. The COST of a nuke plant is staggering. I could build FIFTY diesel power plants with the same mega watt output for the cost of ONE nuke. All three of the nuke plants I worked at are now decommissioned. Their diesel back up plants were moved and still operational. The military uses either prime or back up diesel power plants at ALL bases. Antarctica uses diesel power at both McMurdo Station and the Pole. So far, diesel is just way more cost effective.

This is NOT a ship engine, it was used to make electricity until the 80's. Ship engines are built into the ship and get dismantled/destroyed when the ship does. It is extremely rare for an engine taken out to be taken out in any meaningful way. When they replaced powerplants on ww2 ships they pretty much just cut them up into little bits.

Oh and something for you to think about. Cylinders are roughly 3ft in diameter and they have little doors you can open if work inside the cylinder if need be.

johannisbeersaft Actually - the lack of a turbocharger has little to do with the possibility of a 'runaway' condition. Any diesel engine has the ability to run on its own lubricating oil leaking into the intake-manifold. HOWEVER: This engine is "dry sump" design (No oil in crankcase). Hence *that* is the reason why a 'runaway' condition is unlikely.

+Indrid Cold Personally, I think *anything* is better than the battery technology we've got at the moment. 200 km on a tank of air is pretty good- how long does it take to fill the tank? The question "Where does the energy to compress the air come from?" keeps cropping up- the answer is, from the same fossil, nuclear and renewable sources that would power public transport.

Ivor Biggun Believe it or not, The Russians know how to build tough capable 4wd's. The Lada Niva is an excellent offroad vehicle with long travel coil suspension. Russia is good with many things, including telling the EU to bugger off. It's the EU that has caused the conflict in Ukraine.

This isn't the largest engine now; the largest now is the Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C. Its fastest speed is 102 rpm, and it used about a third of a gallon every revolution. This means it uses about 34 gallons per minute at top speed. At idle (22 rpm) it uses 7.33 gallons per minute. This means at idle and with diesel being $4.00 per gallon, the largest engine in the world costs $29.32 per minute to run.

1 Problem...The RTA96 doesn't run on diesel. It runs on heavy fuel oil, HFO is basically the sludge left over from the refining process. HFO is usually sold by the ton, and current TSA Bunker price is $628 US per ton. Going by a guess that this is a metric ton, there is roughly 267 gallons in a metric ton, working out to a cost, per gallon, of something in the range of $2.35. Still expensive beasts to run.
@captainjim6300
@captainjim6300 10 жыл бұрын
Scott Goldmarble You are correct it uses Marine HFO or Brent Crude Oil at about 1660 gallons of crude oil an hour. It producing 80kW or right at 100,000 HP. It normally runs at an 85% load which was determined to be maximum efficiency. A ton is 261 US gallons or 200 kg drum for international standards. It cost just over 100,000 dollars a day to operate but that is based on the newer version RTA96 with common rail injection. Frankly for the amount of tons a Panamax or larger Container ship can carry it is a bargain. I pushed large barges on almost all Inland and Western Rivers (Mississippi River and tributaries). If I ran at 1050 RPM I used 2000 gallons in a 24 hr period to push 10,000 plus tons of cargo at 5 mph. If I backed down to 950 RPM I only used 1000 gallons of fuel to push the same barges at 4 mph for 24 hrs. Ships especially as large as a Container Ship on the other hand are engineered for a certain speed or RPM and they run it 24 hours a day to get maximum fuel savings and max potential out of engine in this case 85% of engines total capacity. They do this without exceeding RPM's that would cause extra wear or maintenance and excessive fuel burn with no significant gain. Prices for Brent Crude Oil in Oct of 2012 had the engine using a little over $100,000 in fuel a day.
