Dual Fuel Engine
DF or Duel Fuel Engines are the kind of engines which could work on a mixture of diesel fuel and gas fuel or it can work on diesel fuel alone. Duel Fuel engines could not work on gas alone since they do not posses an ignition system, nor do they possess any spark plugs.
Because the engine is not a pure diesel engine and diesel is not a pure gas, this machine does suffer from poor fuel efficiency and Methane slippage. For example, the fuel efficiency may be 5% to 8% less than in a comparable spark-ignited, lean burn engine at 100% load. It could even be lower or higher loads.
