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