	Stationary engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Victorian era railway engineering, many attempts were made to replace locomotives by stationary engines, on the grounds that it was inefficient to move something as large and heavy as a steam engine around.
		Small stationary engines were frequently used on a farm to drive various kinds of power tools and equipment such as circular saws, pumps, and hay elevators.
		The engines were usually powered by gasoline, or in some cases for economy it was possible to switch over to run on paraffin after the engine had warmed up - to achieve this required a part of the inlet tract to be heated by exhaust gases in order to vaporise the less volatile fuel.

	EPA: Federal Register: Control of Emissions From New Nonroad Diesel Engines: Amendments to the Nonroad Engine Definition
		For example, the engine is defined as a nonroad engine if it is used to propel a piece of mobile equipment such as a bulldozer or farm tractor or if it is used in equipment that is propelled while performing its function such as a lawn mower.
		Engines that are part of an engine family that has been certified by EPA to meet applicable nonroad engine standards may get used in either portable or stationary applications.
		Under this revision, an engine in that certified engine family that is used in agricultural operations in California would continue to meet the definition of nonroad irrespective of its use as long as some engines in the engine family are used in portable applications.

	ipedia.com: Steam engine Article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Early engines worked by the vacuum of condensing steam, whereas later types (such as steam locomotives) used the power of expanding steam.
		However steam engines are less favored for automobiles, which are generally powered by internal combustion engines, because steam requires at least thirty seconds (in a flash boiler) or so to develop pressure.
		A steam engine exhausting to atmosphere will have an efficiency (including the boiler) of 5% but with the addition of a condenser the efficiency is greatly improved to 25% or better.

	Stationary engines, our collection and a bit of history
		VISSIA's cousin by the name of OTTEN from Breda had seen stationary engines at the world trade fair in Paris and coming home he proceeded to build a very small gas engine and after fiddling with it for a while, he even made it run.
		We are also not sure how many Vissia engines were sold, we do know they had an agent in Antwerp and they sold a lot of engines to Germany and that several years ago there were still two engines running on swamp gas somewhere in India.
		The engine builders who in 1877 as you know discovered the first internal combustion engine with a good output were Otto and Lange.

	Omnia Stationary Engines
		To say that the engine is of a superior pattern is but to state the simple truth whilst to give the results of the practical running demonstration vouchsafed us would be to convince anyone that the engine is of a high standard of efficiency as well as of finish.
		After the engine has started on petrol, the main paraffin supply is turned on by a cock provided on the tank and the flow can then be regulated by a needle valve on the vaporiser.
		The engine can be had in the stationary pattern to be bolted to a permanent bed or with a well-built trolley, fitted with cast-iron wheels, draw-bar, swivelling forecarriage and hooks.

		We want to improve the knowledge of the special type of engine, normally called, hot bulb engine or semi diesel, which were more common in Sweden than in other countries in the World.
		Most Swedish manufacturers copied this new type of engine and we estimate that more than 70 different manufacturers have been producing this 2-stroke hot bulb engine during the years.

		For stationary engine use they are much the same, but according to one of my favorite volumes Dyke's Automobile and Gasoline Engine Encyclopedia the tungsten (otherwise known as "K.W. Coils") are the better ones.

		If the total rated capacity of all stationary diesel engines at the installation does not exceed 736 hp or 549 kW, and there are no other emitting activities, then the stationary source does not have the potential to emit 100 tons or more of NO x.
		If all stationary diesel electric generating equipment installed at the stationary source is used strictly as emergency or standby power in the event that there is an interruption of the normal power supply, a Pre-Approved Emission Limit may no longer be necessary.
		In certain instances where the stationary source has a mixed-use of diesel electric generators for electric generation and backup emergency capacity, a PAEL may not be necessary.

		David Edgington has been interested in stationary engines as far back as he can remember.
		His love of engines took him into the motor trade and the other end of the scale, because it was high performance and racing engines that seemed to meet the requirements, and with this is mind he went to work for Rob Walker.
		Another engines soon followed, and another, and so it went on, and by this time it was becoming apparent that virtually no information or literature existed on the subject.
