Project Abstract
Diezel Corp. is sponsored by the Energy Institute of Pennsylvania State
University to build a fuel injector test stand. The test stand
will be used to analyze the durability and effectiveness of Diesel engine
fuel injectors. The fuel used is a formulation of DME (Dymethyl
Ether)-Diesel fuel, a new fuel source researched by Elana Chapman, Jennifer
Eirich, and Prof. Andre Boehman of the Energy Institute of Pennsylvania
State University.
By the end of Fall semester 2002, Diezel Corp. managed to assemble the
system.
