These engines are known as heat engines because when fossil fuels are burned, i.e. heat energy in the form of hot expanding gases are produced.

Heat Engine
How do heat engines work? The essential part of a heat engine is a cylinder in which a piston moves up and down. (This is known as a reciprocating movement.) In a heat engine, fuel is burned in the cylinder thus producing got expanding gases. The rapid expansion of hot gases creates pressure in the cylinder which pushes the piston downwards. Since most machinery works with a rotary (circular) movement, the up and down (reciprocating) stroke of the piston is converted into a circular movement with the help of a crankshaft.

Heat Engine
Classification of Heat Engines
Heat engines can be classified according to : a) The type of fuel they use ( e.g. Petrol Engines, Diesel Engines, Heavy Fuel Engines, Steam Engines. b) Whether the fuel is burned outside or inside the engine. In External Combustion engines (e.g. steam locomotives), the fuel is burned separately in the furnace of a boiler which produces the steam. The steam then enters the cylinder and moves the piston. In Internal combustion engines (e.g. petrol and diesel engines) the hot expanding gases are produced by burning the fuel inside the cylinder of the engine so that less energy is lost. These engines are generally smaller and more efficient than steam engines.

- Air Systems
For satisfactory combustion, an engine requires approximately 3000 liters of fresh, clean oxygen to burn one liter of fuel. This can be ensured by : The location of the power house. Engine ventilation. Air cleaner maintenance.
19
a. Oil bath type. Known as the scrubber type of cleaner, this is used for light and medium duty. Efficiency is approximately 98.7% at recommenced air flow and will reduce at a low air flow
level.
20
This directs clean air to the cylinder for combustion. The opening depends on engine application and fitment on equipment i.e. G.E. side, center or F.W.E.Opening
21
Service the dry type air cleaner only when it is choked. Choking is indicated by the air restrictor indicator OR by sluggish engine performance. Check the restrictor indicator daily. If the indicator band shows RED', clean the filter elements as follows :
22
1b. The element should be cleaned with compressed air from inside to outside, under controlled air pressure as shown. The compressed air pressure should not exceed 3 kg/cm2. Always clean from inside to outside. The cleaning nozzle ID should be more than 8 mm.
23
1d. Clean it from inside to outside. The cleaning nozzle should be held 25 to 30 mm away from the inside surface of the element. Keep a distance between the nozzle and the element.
24
2b. Never remove and clean the inner element i.e. the safety element. The safety element should be replaced every three replacements of the outer elements. Never clean the safety element. Always replace it at recommended intervals.
25
2c. After cleaning, check the element for any tear or damage by passing as inspection lamp.
2d. Check for any holes using the electric bulb test. In case you see a hole, replace the element. Clean the filter housing with a water moistened cloth.

b. Splash Lubrication This is done by oil thrown by the high speed rotating components of the engine, such as the crankshaft. Used to lubricate crankshaft, liners, piston and gear train. c. Mist Lubrication Lubrication by oil droplets which are formed oil fumes. Used to lubricate the valve rockers of small single cylinder engines.

4. Lubricating oil pump It helps to circulates oil around the engine's components under pressure.
5. Oil Filter (Std). Filters micro particles to avoid damage to bearings, journals and other components. Oil filter element is to be replaced during every oil change.

The water pump is normally engine mounted and engine driven through the fan belt. It delivers cool water from the radiator to the engine water jacket. the impeller is an open type with vanes, which when rotated, forces coolant to the engine's jacket by centrifugal action.

5. Fuel Injector To inject fuel into the cylinder under high pressure in an atomised state for ignition. The proper combustion is not achieved because of incorrect pressure and incorrect spray pattern of fuel in combustion chamber. 6. Bleed valve To maintain the prescribed fuel pressure in the fuel pump reservoir to facilitate the filling of the pump barrel within a stipulated time. excess fuel is returned to the service tank through the valve. 7. Button filter / Swivel type It is provided in the inlet benjo of feed pump and should be cleaned regularly. Choke of button filter may lead to engine not taking load.

To rotate the camshaft at half the crankshaft speed and to work the engine mounted pumps. Camshaft
Tappets Follow the camshaft lobes and transmit movements to the valve rocker. Accept the push rod ball end side. Push rods The link between the tappets and valve rockers to transmit motion. Valve rocker assembly Transmits motion from camshaft to valves

Cam Bush
Thrust Washer
Function Rigid base & foundation for the Engine. To store lub oil. To support crank-shaft & other engine parts. Dipstick hole is also drilled in the crankcase. It should be cooled & lubricated & should transmit less noise outside.
Constructional Features Oil Passages are drilled inside the Cr. case for lubrication of main brgs, camshaft journals, & inter mediate gear. Cr. case is open from bottom side & is closed by oil sump. Main brg bores are bored with the bearing caps in position to ensure longitudinal alignment. Cam bore is also bored in Crank case for camshaft journal. It is subjected to severe mechanical & thermal stresses.
Remarks Cr. Cases for 2, 3, 4 & 6 Cylinder are identical in design except for the length. During engine overhaul following points are to be considered. Ensure correct undersize bearings are given. Replace main brg cap bolts.
74
Balance Weight
Function Transforms reciprocating motion into circular motion. It is called a crank shaft because it is made with cranks or throws (an offset Portions of the shaft) with a rod journal machined. This throw determines the stroke of the crank shaft. A crankshaft is composed of the Crankpins, crankwebs, crank journals, & driving ends.
Constructional Features A crank pin together with the two crank arms on opposite sides of it is frequently referred to as a " Crank throw In multi cylinder engines crankshaft rotates & centrifugal force acts on crankarms, crankpin & part of the rod which leads to unbalanced rotating force which would cause the engine to vibrate if no means are provided to balance it. Thus balance weight are normally provided to counter act these forces.
Remarks Whenever crankshaft is removed for grinding pin or journal check for Bal. wt to be numbered from either FWE or G.E Side. Bal. wt bolt to be replaced. After grinding ensure proper fillet radius. This is special alloy steel suitable for surface hardening process.
A crankshaft must resist bending moments & torque & any stresses due to vibration & offer adequate area for the bearing surfaces.
75
Function Support for cylinder & other engine parts. Passage for cooling medium.
Constructional Features Cylinder is located in Cyl. block which provides water jacket area for liner. For Water circulation from block to Cyl. head, one Ferrul is fitted with 'O' ring in Cyl. block.
Remarks Whenever you are replacing either liner or block ensure that proper seat is taken between liner & block to prevent water leakage. Also ensure if copper shim is also fitted with the cyl. block which will prevent water leakage between cyl. head & block.
