As any good engineer can plainly see, EMD is about

The computer is considering thousands of possible designs for the turbine blades and nozzle, the compressor impeller and diffuser.

The goal is simple.

We want to make the turbo- charger more efficient so that the

EMD marine Diesel engine can op- erate on less fuel.

The engineers watching the tur- bines turn on the screen have already redesigned the piston to give the

EMD diesel a more efficient power stroke, a higher compression ratio, and a more economical use of fuel.

They've already refined the unit fuel injector to make it burn more efficiently than ever before.

They've already developed a rock- ing piston pin that allows the engine to run at higher peak firing pressures
