For our example of an electrical power generation unit we will look at a diesel powered, a mobile, trailer mounted system. There are various components that constitute the system and their functions explored. Parts & Functions of a Diesel Generator Engine: The ideal engine will be simple and reliable, as compact as possible, with low…
