Four-Stroke Diesel Engine

• For safe and effective studies and demonstrations of a four-stroke, single-cylinder diesel engine • For use with TecQuipment’s Small Engine Test Set (TD200) • High-quality yet cost-effective engine specially modified for educational use • Wide range of investigations possible • Quickly and accurately mounts on the test bed • Includes colour-coded fuel tank with quick-release couplings

Description
High-quality, cost-effective four-stroke, single-cylinder diesel engine for use with TecQuipment’s Small Engine Test Set (TD200). Adapted specially for education to enable effective laboratory testing and demonstrations, the engine includes an exhaust thermocouple, a half-coupling to link to the test bed dynamometer and all essential hoses and fittings. In addition, each engine includes a colour-coded fuel tank with self-sealing couplings. The couplings ensure the engine can be connected and disconnected quickly and efficiently with minimum loss or spillage of fuel. For convenience and safety, the fuel tank can be removed for filling or for storage in a fuel locker when not in use. Removing the fuel tank also prevents unauthorised use of the equipment. The engine is mounted on a sturdy precision bed plate. The bed plate has dowels and slots which align and locate it accurately with the dynamometer test set. This minimises the time spent replacing one engine with another.

Standard Features
• Supplied with comprehensive user guide • Two-year warranty • Made in accordance with the latest European Union directives

Experiments
When used with TecQuipment’s Small Engine Test Set (TD200), investigations into the performance and characteristics of a four-stroke diesel engine, including: • Torque, speed and power relationship • Brake mean effective pressure • Engine performance curves • Air and fuel

    Training for this system project is set to be conducted at the company’s service center in Cleveland, Ohio. Travel accommodations will be set for every personnel necessary for the training. Knowing Huffman Trucking stays operational, it may be difficult for some to attend. However, it is mandatory that training is received and recorded for knowledgeable recognition of this system. Russell Smith and Brenntag are the potential stakeholders at this present time of the project, however, that may be subject to change once the system is fully implemented. The overall objective of and outcome for this project is to become in compliance with The Environmental Protection Agency, having a complete fleet of transportation equipment with Diesel Exhaust Fluids. Transforming to a DEF operation will eventually reduce cost on engine maintenance and better performance, creating a profit for Huffman Trucking…

    ¬¬¬¬In this lab, we explored the theory of combustion and used it to create and biodiesel. Diesel is a common fuel used to power many large trucks and heavy equipment (such as tractors and backhoes). Diesel fuel is made from crude oil that was formed over millions of years by the decomposition of prehistoric plants and animals. Through the use of an oil well, crude oil is pumped out of the ground and transferred (often by large ocean tankers) to oil distillation units. Crude oil contains widely varying organic chemicals that range in size from small molecules with only 1 carbon atom to very large molecules with more than 20 carbon atoms that can be separated into various fractions (or components) based on the size with a distillation tower.…

    The basic difference between a diesel engine and a gasoline engine is that in a diesel engine, the fuel is sprayed into the combustion chambers through fuel injector nozzles just when the air in each chamber has been placed under such great pressure that it’s hot enough to ignite the fuel spontaneously.…

    The diesel engine has provided the world with cheap and efficient power for over one hundred years. The invention was first thought up by Rudolph Diesel in 1892. He wanted to create an engine that would be more efficient than the steam engine, which was only 12% efficient. He filed for a patent in Germany in February of 1892. He was granted a patent for a “Working Method and Design for Combustion Engines...new efficient, thermal engine” (History). With his patent ready, he made contracts with large companies such as Frederick Krupp and other manufacturers. Diesel created his first working engine a year later, which ran on peanut oil. That was the fuel that Diesel thought would be overall the most efficient and cost effective, it was the first bio-diesel. The engine ran at 26% efficiency, which was 14% efficient more than the steam engine, almost double. However, Diesel did not think it was enough, so he went back to the drawing board. Later in 1987, he made another model that operated at a whopping 75% efficiency (History). This was an incredible achievement because it meant that it could replace the work that steam engines do at a fraction of the cost. Nowadays diesel engine manufacturers are in competition with gasoline engine manufacturers. Diesels are making comeback to the industry because they are quieter, lighter, more efficient, less polluting and more powerful than ever. Many companies recently have been releasing cars that have ridiculously high MPG's and more power than their gasoline counterparts. The people in the United States like the idea of a fuel efficient car, but get turned off when they hear the idea of a diesel car because of their reputation of being loud and stinky. People need to be reeducated because these…

    Gas engines versus diesel engines have been a long time opponent. Each has its own pros and cons but its really what your needs demand. Power and torque is a big player in this. If you want higher horsepower and fast acceleration, a gas engine is for you. If you need to tow objects and need a lot of low-end power a diesel engine would suit you. Fuel economy can play a bigger part in your decision. Diesel engines usually have a better fuel economy rating because of the way they don’t waste fuel during combustion unlike the gas-powered counterparts.…

    Diesel Is the Future

    Diesel fuel is more efficient than the internal combustion engine due to the higher temperature of combustion and greater expansion ratio. The typical gasoline engine is 30% efficient while the diesel engine normally converts over 45% of the fuel to mechanical energy. The conversion of this energy directly relates to the efficiency of the vehicle burning it. Moving freight by rail is 3 times more fuel efficient than moving freight on the highway. Trains can move a ton of freight nearly 450 miles on a single gallon of fuel. Efficient use of fuel means fewer greenhouse gas emissions for our planet. According to Encyclopedia Britannica (2013) “The most outstanding feature of the diesel engine is its efficiency. By compressing air rather than using air fuel mixture, the diesel engine is not limited by the preignition problems that plague high compression spark-ignition engines.” This is the main reason that the diesel engine is used in heavy equipment. It is capable of producing high torque at low revolution per minute. Torque is the force that affects rotational motion; the greater the torque, the greater the change in this motion.…
