It includes lubricating oil tank, oil pumps, filters, coolers and
connecting pipes.
FUEL SYSTEM
Pump draws diesel from storage tank and supplies it to the
small day tank through the filter.
Day tank supplies the daily fuel need of engine. The day
tank is usually placed high so that diesel flows to engine
under gravity.
COOLING SYSTEM
The temperature of burning gases in the engine cylinder is the
order of 1500 to 2000 C.
EXHAUST SYSTEM

into atmosphere. A silencer is usually incorporated in the system to reduce the
noise level.
