A diesel engine ( also known as a compression-ignition engine ) is an internal combustion engine that uses the heat of compression to initiate ignition to burn the fuel, which is injected into the combustion chamber.

The diesel engine has the highest thermal efficiency of any regular internal or external combustion engine due to its very high compression ratio.

Low-speed diesel engines ( as used in ships and other applications where overall engine weight is relatively unimportant ) can have a thermal efficiency that exceeds 50 percent.
