A standard jet engine employs spinning compressor fans to pressurize inflowing air so that it releases large amounts of energy when mixed with fuel and burned.
Diesel engines burn their fuel more efficiently compared to their gasoline counterparts — and thus emit considerably lower quantities of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2)-- mainly because diesel engines work with excess air in so - called lean - burn mode.
The traditional cylinder - piston design used in engines means that only the piston head itself produces motive force, as it is pushed up and down by the expansion of the burning fuel - and - air mixture.
