Diesel engines have much more torque at low rpm.
Diesel engines do not make much heat without a load.
Some cars have diesel engines because diesel engines give more mileage and diesel is cheaper than gasoline in some countries. In the UK diesel fuel costs more than gas but, because diesel engines give much better mileage (miles per gallon), people are still happy to pay more for the diesel fuel if they run diesel vehicles. Diesel engines last much longer and have much better torque at low revs than a petrol engine.
Yes, diesel engine will last much longer than gasoline engines. They are built much stronger but are also more expensive to build.
Diesel engines have far more torque or pulling power than gasoline engines. Diesel engines also last much longer than gas engines because they are built to a much higher standard of durability. The downside to a diesel is that they cost more to produce. But for heavy equipment they are necessary and a diesel engine can easily last over 1 million miles.
Are diesel engines better than gas engines is sort of a yes and no question. Diesel engines generally get better fuel mileage and last longer overall. But, gas engines are easier to maintain on your own and gasoline is much more readily available than diesel fuel is on the whole.
In diesel engines, yes. In gasoline engines, not much.
No, diesel engines cost more to build than petrol engines. They are built much heavier.
Yes Diesel is much greener than gasoline engines
They dont, diesel engines are generally more reliable than gas engines, and alot simpler due to the fact that the entire ignition system found in gas-powered engines is deleted entirely from the diesel equation. (Diesel engines don't have spark plugs, they rely on compression to ignite the fuel, meaning: they sqeeze the diesel fuel so much that it explodes)
Of an individual diesel engine and an individual steam engine of the same energy output the diesel engine would be less polluting. It is far more efficient. However, there are far more diesel engines than steam engines in the world today so overall diesel engines pollute more than steam engines.
