Recent developments of the two stroke cycle diesel engine for off highway applications

The diesel engine is currently in a phase of rapid development unequalled throughout its history. From small beginnings, the turbocharger has spearheaded much of the development of the diesel engine and has opened up new opportunities for technology advances towards more complete energy management. With the latest technology advances which are currently unfolding, particularly in the area of electronics and ceramics, new possibilities for diesel engines are becoming reality. These developments arise from the application of advanced research underway in the r&d laboratories at dda. The many product refinements which are continually being incorporated into the dda engine line, together with the major breakthroughs, result in a premium diesel engine which embodies a much higher level of technology with significant benefits for the end user (a).
