Details of the Construction and Production of Fuel Pumps and Fuel Nozzles for the Airplane Diesel Engine
A 1936 NACA technical memorandum from the NASA Technical Reports Server, written for aircraft engine engineers, covering fuel pump and nozzle construction for airplane diesel engines. The pictures are engineering line drawings of a fuel pump plunger helix and port layout, a cutaway of a pump barrel with its intake and discharge passages, and dimensioned timing diagrams. A designer could take from them the clean technical drawing conventions of the period: hatched sections, dimension lines, and labelled callouts.
