m e society shows improvements and discoveries in field weight and high ratio of speed are the major reasons why the ap plication of the present diesel en gine to the automobile is a long way off said joseph c groff 23 hold er of many patents on the diesel engine before 50 members of the american society of mechanical en gineers last evening in packard lab oratory mr groff's topic was the de velopment of the diesel engine he said that this engine in its pres ent form is well adapted to motor truck and bus transportation and is also highly efficient for marine pow er purposes explains operation the operation of the diesel en gine consists of a piston compress ing air to an exceedingly high point which atomizes the oil upon its en trance into the cylinder says mr groff because of the density of the compressed air the oil rushing into the cylinder in atomized particles is heated to 500 degrees fahrenheit at which point the oil ignites itself and the combustion results in ex pansion shoving the piston down ward and causing power because the engine has to run at a good rate of speed in order to maintain the proper atomization of the oil and also in order to withstand the high pressure it has to have such heavy construction that it is elim inated in its present form from the automobile industry in tracing the development of the diesel engine from its invention up to the present time mr groff told of the many mechanical difficulties that have been encountered and the many improvements that have been made groff is alumnus since mr groff's graduation from lehigh in 1923 with the degree of naval engineer he has been inter ested in the diesel engine and the patents which he holds both here and abroad have been significant in the present development of the en gine

substitution of oil engine in auto trade he tells m e society shows improvements and discoveries in field weight and high ratio of speed are the major reasons why the ap plication of the present diesel en gine to the automobile is a long way off said joseph c groff 23 hold er of many patents on the diesel engine before 50 members of the american society of mechanical en gineers last evening in packard lab oratory mr groff's topic was the de velopment of the diesel engine he said that this engine in its pres ent form is well adapted to motor truck and bus transportation and is also highly efficient for marine pow er purposes explains operation the operation of the diesel en gine consists of a piston compress ing air to an exceedingly high point which atomizes the oil upon its en trance into the cylinder says mr groff because of the density of the compressed air the oil rushing into the cylinder in atomized particles is heated to 500 degrees fahrenheit at which point the oil ignites itself and the combustion results in ex pansion shoving the piston down ward and causing power because the engine has to run at a good rate of speed in order to maintain the proper atomization of the oil and also in order to withstand the high pressure it has to have such heavy construction that it is elim inated in its present form from the automobile industry in tracing the development of the diesel engine from its invention up to the present time mr groff told of the many mechanical difficulties that have been encountered and the many improvements that have been made groff is alumnus since mr groff's graduation from lehigh in 1923 with the degree of naval engineer he has been inter ested in the diesel engine and the patents which he holds both here and abroad have been significant in the present development of the en gine he continues his experiments with the engine at his home in al lentown at such times when he is away from the bethlehem steel company where he is employed at
