The Napier Deltic engine (1947) is a powerful, triangular-shaped opposed-piston, two-stroke diesel engine with three crankshafts. Each cylinder has two pistons moving toward each other — no cylinder heads or valves. Air is compressed between pistons, fuel ignites, and the explosion pushes pistons apart. It delivers high power in a compact size, perfect for naval boats and trains. | Mechmindsunite
