My right ear now knows a lot about diesels. My left ear, not so much.
I thought I lost my handsfree until I read your comment 🙂
Heh. Audio engineer had a 'cold' in that ear the day he mixed this ...
I changed my handsfree twice
hahaha😅

You really got to take a moment and appreciate how so many people back in the day were so freaking smart to figure this stuff out. It always amazes me.
that slide 17:07 :)
Slick boi
OSHA approved? Ha!

its crazy to see how far the diesel engine advanced the first 60 years of development, but it is even crazier how much it has advanced just in the last 15 years.
Advanced in terms of fuel efficiency, bu not in terms of ruggedness. Some of these engines still run today. And you can run almost any fuel/oil in them.
Yep. Fucking brodozers (toeing trailers and going off-road never) doing 4WD launches eating up their soft rubber mud tires, overstressing their transfer cases and half shafts, cooking their piston rings so it’ll be burning oil and coking up the turbo so it will seize... all so they can say they won against a stock four door family sedan.
Very true dat! In fact, you can say that pretty much about any technology in the past 200 years.... Electricity, Computers, Solid State devices, Music/TV/Movie equipment, Planes, Rockets, and so on....
Diesel engines have not changed fundamentally in many decades.
17:07 how he climbs fown the ladder. Awesome
Add a turbo and the efficiency goes up even more.
I wonder when they were doing the arctic tests if they noted the engine had more power with the colder more dense air.
Forced induction is almost as old as ICE powered cars. Cars have used superchargers for around a hundred years.
@Y e e t juice re: "Forced induction is almost as old as ICE ..."
I think the irony of this may be lost here ...
No. You just don’t know what irony means, Alannis.
@@Phenom98 forced induction I think started in aircraft for the high altitudes and thin air

Rudolf Diesel was a great man in industry.
I saw this sixty years ago, and never forgot it.
16:58 Is showing the DM884WS-150 - the largest Diesel in the World up until the mid 70's - It was commisioned in 1934 as a stationary auxiliary power plant - at the famous HC Orsteds Works in Copenhagen.
And a few years later the 1.9 TDI engine was found :D
Gotta love those pd engines
I had a diesel engine in 1947 bought it when i was 68years old..this year 2023 ive bought EURO6 truck diesel engine and works perfectly..cant imagine how diesel has evolved..want to get another one in 2075
As a diesel mechanic I have to say rudolph diesel is rolling in his grave seeing how the world has taken his creation of a great engine that needed no electricity to run to what it is now.......mechanical for me, thanks
Forgot I left out a big thanks to the epa.
I think he would be proud of the large ship engines. especially that one that creates 100,000 horsepower. However the ones in range rover and Mercedes are needlessly complicated.
Fortunately, nobody is asking you.
We need to go back to science engineering

Agreed
Nothing beats a nice turbo diesel, I love these things!
Turbo petrol /gasoline even nicer.
@@TheTurbulant same size? Nope. The torque in the low revs of a diesel beats a turbo petrol every day of the week. At least for me ;-) - cheers mate!
@@erebostd electric car will
@@kevindewilde7970 wrong
16:46 Wish buses still looked and sounded like that.
I drive a diesel with 165bhp and 350nm of The chatty stuff. 0-60 in 7.9 and fantastic mid range pull. Great great engine.
Great video, bad sound compress though.
Not sound compression. It is the quality of vids back then. When I was in elementary school, nearly everything had that hiss and pop in the background.
What a great film I recognise some segments from other historic films, very enjoyable.
Even though the world is transitioning to electric, I still think diesel is the best way to compress energy for use in work machines because for one, the most efficient batteries we have contain less electric potential and are flammable too. Fat-rich plants can be converted into oil, then biodiesel. The purpose of fuel is not to obtain energy, but to contain it. Doing so in a carbon negative or neutral way is a good bonus too.
Electric that efficient either. Poor lil kids collecting lithium with their barehands in africa
many great information in this video, thank you.
Very interesting footage and surprisingly informative despite its age. thanks for uploading.
The Germans had a diesel typewriter back in the 1940s. That's why they lost the war.
It's comforting to watch this without the annoying "timer" and channel branding from other channels. Thank you.
(BTW.. They originally downloaded the videos they show from you in the first place!)
Something is wrong wirh the sound here! Only sound in the right channel, and a lot of noise in the left...
And it's not in 4K !
It actually suits me well. Because my right ear phone is the only one working.
Listening on a cell phone so can't tell it's all mono to me
First the sound track is a monophonic recording and it should have been on both tracks. Second, many of the prints had variable density soundtracks. If the track was printed too light it would create a lot of background noise. I have several prints and there is only one good one, done right.
Most movies back then were not done in stereo. Stereovision came in the 1950's and later. Your talking horse drawn buggies to the modern automobile.
The sound at full volume is amazing ,just like 3d surround sound
diesel's original design was to run coal dust for fuel, but metering it properly was impossible at that time, so he switched to a liquid and that was originally peanut oil, but ended up being petroleum based instead. much the same way Henry Ford intended for his cars to run on ethanol because of availability and what was popular at the time.
It was probably best that Ford didn't end up using ethanol because, as racecar drivers later learned, it burns viciously yet clear.
It is also very thirsty requiring 2.5 times as much.
Samuel Rosenberg wish they took it out of the gasoline all together
LOL look up the history of gasoline. In Henry Fords time at turn of century. Gasoline was sold in hardware stores as laundry detergent.
@wi11y1960 re: " Gasoline was sold in hardware stores as laundry detergent."
AND - it didn't contain lead or other additives as gasoline has since WW2 ...
Such a great educational video!
FYI: Nicolaus Otto of Eugen Langen's Deutz AG was not the first to build the 4 Stroke engine. Christain Reithman of Austria obtained patents for his 4 Clock Cycle engines in 1873; 3 years before Otto and Langen. Reithman sued Deutz AG for patent infringment. Otto negotiated a settlement plus a pension for life for Christian Reithman and for the right to be called the first to have invented the 4 Stroke Engine; Reithman agreed. None of us in the later years would have known of this accept Eugen Langen's son, Arnold Langen, wrote a book about Nicolaus Otto and his 4 Stroke Engine with one of the chapters documenting the law suit. Arnold Langen made arrangements for his book to be published after his death. Arnold passed away in 1949. The book was titled, "Nicolaus August Otto - creator of the internal combustion engine".
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...
@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.
Muito interessante estes vídeos!!! Obrigado por posta-los.
Right ear enjoyed this!
And then Volkswagon perfected it with clean and extra powerful diesel!
😂😂😂💀
Until Chevy produced a larger heavier car with a more powerful engine, that got better gas mileage, and actually PASSED emissions.....
ManInTheBigHat Did you know, that Detroit Diesel and their likes poisend american school kids for decades with way dirtier exhaust gases?

интересные старинные фильмы. и всё ясно объясняют
I wonder if they will ever be released on DVD. I seem to recall a Shell film depicting a Tide Mill.
Super evolution of air pump!
“Wind was one answer but wasn’t always reliable.” I’m surprised TH-cam hasn’t demonetized and banned this video for such an un PC statement.
AWESOME!

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
Good stuff
Wasn't Diesel thrown off the side of the ship by the oil companies on his way to receiving an award for creating a fuel efficient engine?
Some say he killed himself because his engine was mainly used to kill people via the German war machine
Early diesel engines on ships did not use diesel, but BUNKER OIL, much cheaper and easier to get, but filthy emmissions.
Very interesting.
I'd say because of its age not despite. These days it'd be so dumbed down that you wouldn't learn anything - and the first 10 minutes would be all about safety!
My right ear enjoyed this.
That first ship was over 14M lbs!!
Since owning a Turbo diesel vehicle I will never go back to Benzine.
My great-grandfather worked with Diesel.
youtube the new place to find out about all things old and new
Originally an English production. I wonder if Shell still has an archive of these films?
Ok sir
There's virtually no audio. Do you not edit these before you put them up? Cannot hear it at all.
Thank the early mono sound in video ^_^
No, just NO.
SIMPLE POST PRODUCTION 'MIXING' COULD HAVE RESULTED IN ***BOTH*** CHANNELS HAVING AUDIO HERE ON TH-cam!!!!
Old diesel is best diesel
My right ear approves!
Oops - did your audio engineer leave the project?
So what is the efficiency of todays engine?
If you can't understand the difference between 2 and 4 stroke after 3 and 1/2 minutes of this video you'll never get it at all
Ok, one stupid question. When we go to the example of a single gear rotating in two directions; how can a single or couple of gears love faster than the other. I can't see that part in my head. Please help!
A smaller gear rotating fast turning a larger gear will get a slow turning large gear with higher torque...
A fast moving large gear driving a smaller gear will get you multiplied rpm's, but a great loss of torque...
In a transmission you can see the different gear ratios...
Low gear is slow speed but high torque...
High gear is high speed but low torque...
That's why you have to shift to get to speed... if you start in 5th gear, your engine will most likely stall...
Both gears go at the same circumferential speed, but the smaller gear needs to do more revolutions.
@aktoyjumper yeh I love some of them too
There is sound but it is very quiet
Stereo?
Am I going deaf? Or is there something wrong with the audio in this?
@ 17:07 This guy is my hero.
th-cam.com/video/qj7EAwMXT6c/w-d-xo.html
actually no. The air is delivered seperately from the fuel. The fuel is delivered at a later time because if they both were delivered at the same time the compression ratio of the engine would not be able to exceed the level of compression where the air is heated to the optimal flash point, when the fuel would ignite. by seperately injecting fuel, the compression ratio can exceed the ratio where the air reaches ignition temperatures, therefore making diesels more efficient and more powerful.
passngas2 you mean ignition point, not flash point
who else is watching in 1952?
Trying to fix the damn delorean
why you didn't do a small amount of mono to stereo conversion just to make it easier to hear what they say, baffles me.
La aŭdkvalito aĉas sed krom tio ĝi estas interesa dokumentfilmo!
I wonder why they leave out Mr. Diesel's work with hemp bio-fuel?
Liegend in 2021
Yep.
Not loud enough
diesel fitter?
No sound????
Check your right speaker, it's cut out on ya ...
I like video
Shell and many other large Industrial concerns made these type of educational films, Made freely available to Schools and Colleges.
Of note is the Pneumatic match or Fire piston mentioned here too:
th-cam.com/video/GMdLbPS9R20/w-d-xo.html
want to hear by both ears, just pull headphone plug little outside it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
17:07 per-osha sliding fun
Someone should work on the sound.
before Shell was Shell nice :)
My comment here is only based on historical and factual truth,, and has no intention to be an entertainment ,, but if you see it as such is because you don't comprehend its real meaning, thank you.
what was that at 12:38
I think it was a bottle of wine
They were all passed to the BFI.
Wow
12 people are right-ear deaf.
I prefer the smell of Diesel engine exhaust over gasoline engine exhaust.
Seria bom traduzido para o português
i can haz Golf TDI?
i thought i lost my hearing at my right ear.
Где звук
cool video but now they should have showed that the air and fuel is now mixed and injected in the engine not sepertly like they show thought the video
What about sterling engines?
AaronLow1 They have a very low efficiency due to low delta T. Check out "Carnot process"!
La verdad no entiendo el inglés pero me gustan los videos
It doesn't look like a 1952 film, I had to check the Roman numerals at 0:10 to make sure that MCMLII is really 1952.
evasuser xyz how old does it look?
@@tjlovesrachel judging by the image quality, probably from early 40s. Or perhaps it was filmed at that time and released in MCMLII. I am just guessing, am not familiar with machines and their history.
But you have to remove ur headphones
today 1 in 4 bots are built with diesel engines..... amazing how far we have come. We have naval carriers with nuclear power
Super Inventions! *******
Move, not love. Fucking beer. :)
this isn't conspiracy this is history. It was a conspiracy theory at the time.
The ad's during the video were ear rape!
