    DIESEL POWER PLANT

    Von Eric A. Damirez, ME, MSc


    Basic Elements of Plant Design
    Stationary diesel engine
    • Structural parts: bed plate, frame,
    liners, heads
    • Major moving parts: piston, connecting
    rods, crankshaft, and their bearings
    • Arrangements for getting air in and
    exhaust out: valves, valve mechanisms,
    manifold, scavenging
    • and supercharging systems, and
    • Fuel-injection system: pumps, nozzles,
    control devices.

    The Diesel Engine
    Diesel engine – is an excellent prime mover for electric power
    generation in capacities of 101 hp to 5070 hp which makes it
    widely-used in hotels, utility companies, municipalities, and
    private industries.
    Advantages of the Diesel engine
    a. Low fuel cost.
    b. No long warming-up period.
    c. No standby losses.
    d. Uniformly high efficiency of all sizes.
    e. Simple plant layout.
    f. Needs no large water supply.

    A 4-stroke, 8 cylinder diesel engine with bore and stroke of 9 in. x
    12 in, respectively and speed of 1000 rpm has a break mean
    effective pressure of 165 psi. Determine the engine brake
    horsepower.
    The area of an indicator diagram taken off a four cylinder, single acting, four
    stroke engine running at 5.5 rev/s is 390 mm2, the length is 70 mm and the
    scale of the indicator spring is 1 mm=80 kpa. The diameter of the cylinders is
    150 mm and the stroke is 200 mm. what is the indicated power of the engine?
    The indicated thermal efficiency of a two stroke diesel engine is
    50%. If friction power is 3% of heat generated, determine the
    brake thermal efficiency of the engine.
    A 500 kW Diesel engine has a heat rate of 12000 kJ/kWhr. The
    compression ratio is 16:1, cut-off ratio of 2.3. Assume k=1.32.
    Calculate the engine efficiency based on the output of 500 kW.
