Hey Ed. How you doing?

Well said

If that were the case, why are cars and trucks referred to as motor vehicles ...

​@KRM Because people are mistaken. Same for referring to crude oil as being mineral oil. No such thing. This was an incorrect assumption. Crude oil is from woody biomass.

@@krm8494 because for decades there was nothing else to compare the internal combustion engine to that was on the road. You don’t call a steam engine a steam motor…

Hurrumph !!! Bro finally someone besides just me has said it !!!!

Glad you enjoyed it! 🚂😃

Thank you! 🙏😊

No . That was the Initial Koennigsegg Free Valve Engine . Normally Aspirated , making Motorcycle Power per Litre horsepower numbers . Later they went to the Turbo Compounded version with 1100 hp . The Veyron Hunter .

Yes it is pal. An engine is a machine for converting any of various forms of energy into mechanical force and motion. DAH!!

Yup. Most large modern ships work the same way, as well. They use diesel engines which actually produce electricity to power the motors for the ship as well as the electricity onboard.

Yes I was thinking the same thing about the wind generators not engines.

If the video and the maker of it are so brilliant, why does "click bait" have to be resorted to???. Have the balls to change the video title to a more appropriate one.

Yes & a lot of trains are Diesel electric also.

@@richardpalleschi4807 all trains are unless they are 100% electric and powered by overhead lines or a third rail (or steam powered).

agree on the F1. 1.5 million lbs of thrust per engine. 5 mounted on the first stage of the Saturn 5 = 7.5 million lbs of thrust. Truly impressive

@adamfox4039.... Al sold "Thor", not long after he finished it, to an Oil Sheik in the middle east, for $14.7M.... almost exactly double what it cost him to build it.

Pretty sure it's still the most powerful engine ever made, too...

I worked on the Saturn . it was huge!- for being a single engine! not like the way they cluster the engines today to get more power!

"to" was bleeped also.

Land marks, and statues destroyed, censored history, WTF!!''''???????????????????

There is no war in youtube-sing-say lol

There's only one atrocity you will hear about in this country; Think about it!

Sorry 160 million horse power.

Go woke, go broke.

lets ask Grok

The most powerful engine in the world is the GE9X, a high-bypass turbofan jet engine developed by GE Aviation. This mighty beast powers the Boeing 777X and boasts a maximum thrust of up to 330 KN, with a dry weight of 5800 kg. It features fuel burn reduction technology, which not only reduces engine noise but also makes it more efficient. Fun fact: The GE9X's fan is a whopping 123 inches in diameter, making it larger than the fuselage of a Boeing 737! So, if you're looking to power your next interdimensional spaceship or just want to impress your friends at a dinner party, the GE9X is the engine for you!

I saw that video, everything was weird about it. It looked like the explosion happened ahead of the truck and the truck spun out into it.

Cancel culture at work again.....

Because the R4360 didn't power the B29 in WW2, which is what he was intending to say. It did power the B50, but that was after WW2.

@@andyharman3022 Ok, that makes sense. Thanks. What were the B29's running during the war?

@@karlklein2966 Curtiss-Wright R3350's

​@@karlklein2966see moo

The B-29 was powered by 18 cyl. Wright R3350 engines during WW2. And like you said, the B-50 was built after the war using the 27 cyl. Pratt & Whitney R4360 engines.

Hmm, electric motors are powered by primary fossil fuels from a distant source. So if that is the definition electric motors are indeed engines. You might say they have extra long extension cords. 🤓🤓

HUGE fuel tanks inside the wings needs support.

Buff is beautiful ,but set next to a B36 ,it looks like a Cessna 150. I think of Buff as themost successful Aircraft ever because of its longevity .Probably the only aircraft 3 generations of pilots have flown .

THReynolds2..... That's because they ARE Detroit Diesels. Back in that era, Gray Marine had the contract with GM Diesel Power (as branded until 1965) for producing all the necessary parts & converting them for Marine use. Gray Marine also utilized commercially available gas & diesel engines, not "just" the GM 2 cycles. Gray Marine was bought out by Continental Motors just after WW2, in 1946... and continued in operation until 1967. From 1967, forward... Detroit Diesel produced their own marine units "in house".

They were the same basic engine. The marine engine was tuned more for constant speed operation. Some of the external components were made of more corrosion resistant metals than the truck versions.

@@michaelclark9762.... They were not "tuned" for constant speed operation, they used the dbl wgt variable speed governor, preset for 1600 rpm plus a "Battle Run" preset for 1800.... versus the sgl wgt Limiting Speed gov. for automotive applications. As far as.. quote "Some of the external components were made of more corrosion resistant metals than the truck versions."... none of the external engine components necessary to the basic function of the engine from the factory (GM Diesel) were any different than what was used in truck or heavy equipment, or any other myriads of applications. The water cooled Exhaust manifolds (on 2, 4 & 6-71's) being the exceptions and were designed and manufactured "in house" at GM Diesel, same for the outer housing of the heat exchanger... all else was from Gray Marine.

@@Romans--bo7br Please read my comment again. You're arguing against something I didn't say.

@@michaelclark9762.. Michael, I'm Not "arguing" against anything. In your initial response, you stated a couple of "facts", which were Not entirely correct. How many years, and what years did You, yourself... work with the R&D division of GM/Detroit Diesel? I don't recall your name from there, at least in the era I was there. Have a great weekend, and take care.

A super charger uses engine horsepower to create more horsepower. A turbocharger uses excess exhaust heat to generate “free” horsepower that would otherwise be wasted. Turbochargers are therefore more efficient than superchargers. ICE’s are “heat” engines so heat is not their biggest enemy. In fact many thousands of degrees of heat is what makes internal combustion engines work.

they are synonyms

I agree, electric motors are going to get larger and larger and engines are going to get interesting. Check out the Omega, being developed by Astron Aerospace. Autoline After Hours has an interview with two of the inventors. Small, high revving, and high horsepower.

General Motors makes engines that run on gasoline and diesel. So does Ford Motor Co. And they also make electric motors. A motor is anything that provides motive power.

Not really. The first engines were combustible fuel / steam driven. The largest engines now by far are nuclear fueled steam turbines.

Saved me for writing it...slight difference..

1,123,777 hp is just about 838 MW (megawatts) Palo Verde nuclear power plant has three electric generators each producing 1,400 MW, each driven by a nuclear reactor supplying heat of about twice that power. Industrial steam IS a gas. A steam turbine is a "heat engine" governed by the strict laws of thermodynamics. So reactor power is given as MWth (thermal) and its electricity production as MWe.

Electric generators are not engines they're the driven equipment. The driver in case of a nuke plant would be a steam turbine. However I wouldn't call that an engine either because it's only the gas (steam) to mechanical power converter not including the steam generator. The above mentioned gas turbine combines the gas generation out of chemical energy and the power conversion part, it can therefore actually be called an engine. I stick with the GE 9HA for being the most powerful engine.

de the one at Kingman AZ. still there??

A tunnel boring machine does not produce power, it consumes it.

The PC brigades version of George Orwell's thought police I would surmise
