Oil burner (engine)
text:
An oil burner engine is a steam engine that uses oil as its fuel. The term is usually applied to a locomotive or ship engine that burns oil to heat water, to produce the steam which drives the pistons, or turbines, from which the power is derived. This is mechanically very different from diesel engines, which use internal combustion, although they are sometimes colloquially referred to as oil burners.
