diesel
diesel: [19] The name of this type of internalcombustion engine (which runs on oil rather than petrol) commemorates its inventor, the Parisborn Bavarian engineer Rudolf Diesel (1858– 1913). He conceived his idea for the engine in the early 1890s. In its development stage he was almost killed when one exploded, but by 1897 he had succeeded in producing an operable engine. Within a year he was a millionaire. The term diesel is first recorded in English in 1894.
diesel (adj.)
1894, named for Rudolf Diesel (1858-1913), German mechanical engineer who designed this type of engine.
