  • So what is the efficiency of todays engine?

  • @jvkstudios about 34 - 35 %

  • There is sound but it is very quiet

  • @gebeme11 and only out of one channel

  • turn up volume please?  would've loved to watch this

  • Do I have to read all of the comments to find out why there is no sound? I think I did. Where is the sound?

  • There's no sound??

  • If Ruldolph only knew what he was starting when he started thinking. =)

    What a truly brilliant man who gets no credit for his contribution to our modern way of living. Quite a shame. At least his engine still carries his name! =)

  • i love how all these videos have an epic song in the start

  • rudolf diesel made that engine to run on peanut oil and not petroleum 

  • 18 k watched only !!!!!

  • I wonder why they leave out Mr. Diesel's work with hemp bio-fuel?

  • I really enjoy historic things like this ,especially on machines like engines. I can see the Diesel is good. A freind had a VW rabbit Diesel and it got up to 60 mpg wich a gasoline car of same sice got about 40 mpg

  • Man, oh, man! Whadda delicious way this here to acquire culture... Not the average corrosive "kulture" but the real thing.

    Hats off to you, Whoever you are, USAI...

  • i can haz Golf TDI?

  • The earliest operating internal combustion in the world was invented and patented in 1806, in France by Niepce brothers. More info about the Pyreolophore on Niepce web site or youtube.

  • Diesels have to ability to run off bio-fuels.

    Bio-fueled diesels may be the answer when fossil fuels run out.

    Virtually all modern farm tractors are diesels, as are construction and mining machinery.

    Most car manufacturers now offer diesel engined models.

    There are even classes for diesel powered racing cars.

  • Fuck these oil companies. They don't mention that once the supply can't meet the demand we will be fucked! we depend on oil for so much now we will be buggered. And why? to make a few people wealthy.

  • They didn't mention diesel automobile, and the first diesel passanger car made by Mercedes in 1936. I think this may be because the Americans didn't like the Germans too much after WWII.

  • Shell and many other large Industrial concerns made these type of educational films, Made freely available to Schools and Colleges.

  • Unfortunatelly it does not mention that Rudolf Diesel was murdered by the british, thrown over board returnig from england on the channel ,,,so they can freely have use of his technology for the Royal Navy, R. Diesel envisionel his invention with a social perspective to make better for mankind and the Britts had a problem with that , same old story,,, read Rudolf Diesel biography.

  • @n4120p I thought he fell overboard on the way to England, secondly, didn't the Germans already use his technology in their naval fleet?

  • @n4120p ...I believe it... by 100% percent... because the English are ONLY good at stealing... and exploiting... and to either ruin it... or to claim it their own... or to shift the blame of their actions on the true-Europeans... so we will pay for their crimes against mankind.... and their colonialist rule.. hmmm... because the English Queen NEVER had a soul... and neither had a heart...

  • @n4120p The world is run by murders even today

  • Comment removed

  • @pwarren1010 You are correct Sr, and they keep lying and and telling the story as it serves more profitable to their agenda in our own faces to this day.

    As Christians we have to be blamed for been so naive stupid that beleive everything we are told.

  • @n4120p I am a Christian and finished with being expected to swallow everything im told at face value.For example The War On Terrorism or the War On Drugs.Brainwashing Hypnosis Black Magic and the Occult in society needs to be exposed.I believe there is coming Hope.

  • I used to hate these videos in school, but now i watch them on my own

  • @aktoyjumper

    Nonsense.

    Wikipedia tells another story.

  • @aktoyjumper yeh I love some of them too

  • Originally an English production. I wonder if Shell still has an archive of these films?

  • They were all passed to the BFI.

  • I wonder if they will ever be released on DVD. I seem to recall a Shell film depicting a Tide Mill.

  • @jamestheposh BFI?

    

  • @280aden

    The British Film Institute in London (situated on the South Bank) They look after a wide variety of films, some very rare social history ones, including material going back to the early days of film.
