  Diesel \Diesel\, Diesel engine \Die"sel en`gine\ or Diesel motor
  \Die"sel mo`tor\ (d[=e]"zel). [After Dr. Rudolf Diesel, of
     Munich, the inventor.]
     A type of internal-combustion engine in which the air drawn
     in by the suction stroke is so highly compressed that the
     heat generated ignites the fuel (usually a heavy oil), the
     fuel being automatically sprayed into the cylinder under
     pressure. The Diesel engine has a very high thermal
     efficiency.

  Diesel engine \Die"sel en`gine\ or motor \mo`tor\ [After Dr.
     Rudolf Diesel, of Munich, the inventor.]
     A type of internal-combustion engine in which the air drawn
     in by the suction stroke is so highly compressed that the
     heat generated ignites the fuel (usually crude oil), the fuel
     being automatically sprayed into the cylinder under pressure.
     The Diesel engine has a very high thermal efficiency.
