AGET17
Module 17: Industrial Engine Theory (Optional)
Outcome
Explore the construction and operation of multicylinder engines.
Indicators
(a) | Investigate common agricultural engine configurations (e.g., inline and Vtype). |
(b) | Define and determine agricultural engine measurements (e.g., displacement, compression ratio and clearance). |
(c) | Differentiate between common valve train configurations (e.g., in block and single or dual overhead camshaft) in agricultural engines. |
(d) | Describe the components and function of major, multi-cylinder engine subassemblies (e.g., cooling, exhaust, fuel and lubrication systems). |
(e) | Explain the variations (e.g., cam lift, piston shape and ring design) of internal engine components. |
(f) | Compare the air flow of naturally aspirated and forced air turbocharged diesel engines. |
(g) | Compare how fuel is supplied and ignited in spark ignition gasoline engines and compression ignition diesel engines. |
(h) | Describe the advantages and disadvantages of different fuel sources used in agricultural engines. |
