Four Cylinder Diesel Engine

Product Description

Four Cylinder Diesel Engine

In conjunction with the load unit, the test engine is a complete engine test stand. The engine used here is a four-cylinder diesel engine. It has its own closed cooling water circuit.

A solid welded frame on rollers, with a vibration-insulated base plate, carries the entire setup. Hazardous areas such as hot surfaces and rotating parts are covered with perforated plates. The connection to the brake is made via a rotationally elastic coupling with a jointed shaft. The engine is attached to the load unit by fasteners.

Learning Objectives/Experiments

1. In conjunction with load unit
2. Plotting of torque and power curves
3. Determination of specific fuel consumption
4. Determination of volumetric efficiency and lambda (fuel-air ratio)
5. Energy balances
6. Overall engine efficiency
