Difference between Rail transport and Reciprocating engine

Rail transport vs. Reciprocating engine

Rail transport is a means of transferring of passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, also known as tracks. A reciprocating engine, also often known as a piston engine, is typically a heat engine (although there are also pneumatic and hydraulic reciprocating engines) that uses one or more reciprocating pistons to convert pressure into a rotating motion.

Similarities between Rail transport and Reciprocating engine

Rail transport and Reciprocating engine have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Connecting rod, Crankshaft, Diesel engine, Diesel fuel, Flywheel, Industrial Revolution, Locomotive, Piston, Steam engine, Steam locomotive.

Connecting rod

A connecting rod is a shaft which connects a piston to a crank or crankshaft in a reciprocating engine.

Crankshaft

A crankshaft—related to crank—is a mechanical part able to perform a conversion between reciprocating motion and rotational motion.

Diesel engine

The diesel engine (also known as a compression-ignition or CI engine), named after Rudolf Diesel, is an internal combustion engine in which ignition of the fuel which is injected into the combustion chamber is caused by the elevated temperature of the air in the cylinder due to mechanical compression (adiabatic compression).

Diesel fuel

Diesel fuel in general is any liquid fuel used in diesel engines, whose fuel ignition takes place, without any spark, as a result of compression of the inlet air mixture and then injection of fuel.
