The research had sought to find incidental data on the entry of energy production firms in both India and china. However to effectively analyze the aspect fully, it was paramount to review the energy supply position of the two countries and the deficit thereof. Clearly, there was a large disparity between the energy needs and…

The main difference between a diesel engine and a gasoline engine is how fuel is injected into the combustion chambers. In a diesel engine, fuel is sprayed through fuel injector nozzles once the air pressure inside each chamber reaches a level that will cause the fuel to spontaneously ignite. The process of starting a diesel-powered…

The qualities of diamond are heavily influenced by its composition, crystal structure, and mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic properties. The composition is the most influential factor among these dependencies. The crystal structure represents the repeating pattern of diamond’s composition, and the properties are determined by molecular interaction, which in turn is influenced by composition. Thus, the…

Despite their need for stronger components, diesel engines are generally heavier than petrol engines of the same size, which can negatively impact their performance. Although turbo diesel engines may have a greater horsepower boost, they do not necessarily surpass turbocharged gasoline engines with equivalent boost levels and sizes. Unlike petrol engines, diesel engines are simpler…
