Development of diesel was primarily in extension of engine life and reduction of internal losses at high speeds, rather than in raising maximum operating speeds; paper reviews development of diesels over past 2 decades in Europe with particular reference to Perkins engines designed for automotive use; design factors and combustion systems; 2 conditions requiring correction factors for any diesel engine are reasonable variations of ambient conditions at similar altitude and variation of ambient conditions due to considerable change of altitude; industrial diesels of future.
