Stand-by Diesel Engine Generator, Operation & Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Course Overview:
Diesel Engine is one of the most internal combustion engines, and it is used for many purposes. It can be utilized as a prime mover for any Rotating Equipment Machinery such as Pumps, Compressors, and Fans, in addition to its use for all power plants as black start units.
This course is intended for 5 days to provide an overview of the most important components of a Diesel Engine and the function of each, as well as auxiliary systems such as the lubrication system, cooling system, and different methods used for the startup of a Diesel Engine. Also, this course will explain how to utilize the Diesel Engine as a prime mover of Rotating Machinery or to Generate Power.
Moreover, will cover all aspects of a modern Diesel Engine and associated systems. Descriptions of the Electrical systems associated with a Diesel Engine are then covered in detail including Generator Operations, Generator components, excitation systems, and voltage regulation.
In addition, we will discuss how the steps in operating and maintenance programs differ for these engines; in the end, we will discuss all problems and troubleshooting and how to overcome them through logical solutions with various examples of these faults. Also will review how to maintain the performance of these engines and calculate operating efficiency, especially when utilizing them to generate power.
Also, this course will provide the participants with a brief introduction and explanation of Diesel Engine Analysis which consists of data collection, analysis, and trending of Engine cylinder peak firing pressure and cylinder vibration, and ultrasonic signature to achieve an understanding of the operation.
Course Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, the trainees will be aware and understanding of the following:
- Consolidate and update understanding of the Diesel Engine Components and Auxiliaries.
- Understand diesel engine construction and rating for diesel generators
- Able to maintain the engine in a safer way and will make a more effective contribution to the operation of machinery.
- Learn the basics of engine operating value evaluation and maintenance planning. The special focus is on the economic aspects of engine operation and utilization.
- Understand the diesel generator vibration problems and vibration stress and how to reduce it.
- Understand the modern diesel engine electronic management system.
