Diesel Engine Operation

The document provides information about the components and operation of a diesel engine. It discusses key components like the cylinder block, cylinder head, piston, connecting rod, crankshaft, oil pan, timing assembly, and flywheel. It explains that in a diesel engine, air is compressed to a high temperature to ignite injected diesel fuel for combustion and power the piston. The fuel system is also discussed, noting there are conventional and common rail fuel systems used in diesel engines.

DIESEL
z ENGINE

 it is an internal combustion engine in which air is

compressed to a sufficiently high temperature to ignite


diesel fuel injected into the cylinder, where combustion
and expansion actuate a piston.
 This engine compressing only air. This increases the
air temperature inside the cylinder to such a high
degree that atomized diesel fuel injected into the
combustion chamber ignites spontaneously.

Cylinder
Block
Assembly
This component becomes a
primary component to place
various engine compartments
that support the working process
of the machine.

Cylinder Head
Assembly
The second component unit is located on
the top of the engine. Similar to cylinder
block, this component is also made of
cast material. Currently aluminum head
cylinder seems to be an option, because
it is lighter and stronger. This unit
consists of valve & spring, camshaft,
rocker arm, and combustion chamber.

Piston
z and
Connecting
Rod
Piston is to act as a moveable plug in the
cylinder, forming the bottom part of the
combustion chamber. There’s a gas-tight
seal between the piston and the cylinder wall
- so the only way for the hot combustion
gases to expand is by forcing the piston
down. The piston is connected to the
crankshaft through a connecting rod , often
shortened to rod or conrod.

Crankshaft
is a component made of
cast iron which is used to
turn the piston up and down
motion into a rotary
movement

Oil Pan/
Sump
- is a special tub that serves to
accommodate engine oil. Although
only served as a container of engine
oil, this component also cannot be
made carelessly

Timing
Assembly
is included in the valve mechanism
system, its function to connect the
crankshaft and camshaft rotation with a
certain angle. The component of this
chain is located on the front of the
engine. This chain will connect the
sprocket gear from the crankshaft with
the sprocket gear of the camshaft

Fly wheel
This component is made of
solid iron that can store
torque, that's why this
component can balancing
the engine speed.
z
Fuel System Assembly

 This component consists of fuel tank to injector. Diesel fuel system


serves to supply number of diesel fuel into the combustion chamber
during the stroke. There are two kinds of fuel systems in diesel
engines, namely conventional and common rail systems. The
advantages of diesel engines that use common rail is more efficient
and economic. This is because the common rail system has been
carrying computerized control, so the calculations can be done
accurately
