COOLING SYSTEM
1) Need for cooling system (INTRODUCTION)
During the process of converting thermal energy to mechanical energy high temp are produced in the cylinder of the engine as a result of the combustion process. A large portion of the heat is transferred to the cylinder head and walls, piston and valves. Unless this excess heat is carried away and these parts are adequate cooled, the engine will be damaged. A cooling system must be preventing damages to vital parts of the engine, but the temperature of these components must be maintained within certain limits in the order to obtain maximum performance from the engine. Hence a cooling system is needed to keep the engine from not getting so hot as to cause problems and yet to permit it to run hot enough to ensure maximum efficiency of the engine. The duty of cooling system, in other word, is to keep the engine from getting not too hot and at the same time not to keep it too cool either.
2) Characteristics of efficient cooling system
The following are the two main characteristics desired of an efficient cooling system
1) It should be capable of removing about 30% of heat generated in the combustion chamber while maintain the optimum temp of the engine under all operating conditions of engine.
2) It should remove heat at a faster rate when engine is hot. However during starting of the engine the cooling should be minimum, so that the working parts of engine reach their operating temperature in short time.
3) Type of cooling system
In order to cool the engine a cooling medium is required. This can be either air or a liquid accordingly there are two type of systems in general use for cooling the IC engine. They are
1) Liquid or indirect cooling system
2) Air or direct cooling system
4) Liquid cooled systems
In this system mainly water is used and made to circulate through the jackets provided around the cylinder, cylinder-head, valve ports and seats where it extracts most of the heat.
It consists of a long flat, thin-walled tube with an opening, facing the water pump outlet and a number of small openings along its length that directs the water against the exhaust valves. The fits in the water jacket and can be removed from the front end of the block.
The heat is transferred from the cylinder walls and other parts by convection and conduction. The liquid becomes heated in its passage through the jackets and is in turn cooled by means of an air-cooled radiator system. The heat from liquid in turn is transferred to air. Hence it is called the indirect cooling system. Water cooling can be carried out by any of the following five methods
1) Direct or non-return system
2) Thermosyphone system
3) Forced circulation cooling system
4) Evaporative cooling system
5) Pressure cooling system

The document provides details on how different water cooling systems work and their key components.
Air refrigeration system used in aircraftNissan Patel
There are four main types of aircraft refrigeration systems: simple, bootstrap, regenerative, and reduced ambient. The simple system uses a turbine to drive a fan that pulls cooling air through a heat exchanger for ground cooling. The bootstrap system has two heat exchangers and uses turbine power to drive a compressor for additional cooling capacity at high speeds. The regenerative system also has two heat exchangers and cools air in the second using bleed air from the first for both ground and high-speed aircraft. The reduced ambient system uses two expansion turbines, one for cabin air and one for ram air, connected to a fan to provide cooling below ambient temperatures for supersonic aircraft.
Centrifugal fan which is also called as squirrel cage fan because of its hamster wheel design is widely used to move air/gas continuously in industries and commercial applications. The speed of the air stream entering into the fan, is increased by the impeller thereby it gains kinetic energy and accelerates radially changing the direction by 90°. As these fans are capable of displacing constant volume of air/gas at increased speed, they are widely used in various process applications in industries such as in material handling, boiler applications, transporting gas or materials, ventilation and combustion, air circulation and in other HVAC systems.

Variable speed drives (VSDs) can improve fan system efficiency in power plants by allowing fans to operate at variable speeds matched to current needs rather than running at full speed with controls like dampers that waste energy. VSDs provide the most efficient control of fan speed and flow, reducing energy use by up to 50% compared to other methods like inlet guide vanes or dampers. Case studies show that installing VSDs on large fans in power plants can yield significant energy savings of hundreds of thousands of kWh per year along with reduced emissions and maintenance costs.
Air cooling is a method of dissipating heat by increasing the surface area or airflow over an object's surface. Adding fins to an object's surface increases surface area and improves heat transfer.

Here, we have to track items that are commonly seen in generator sets. You’ll be able to do preventative and general keeping as needed as well as learn how to obtain replacement parts this way.
Of course, this suggests that turning off a switch completes a circuit. Electricity travels from the electric wire to the light and then about to the wire. The quantity of energy units utilized during that billing period varies between one month’s reading and the following.
Generally, the generator produces Alternating Current. By using two components, this is divided into AC and DC. If this commutator rotates according to the coil, the phase either adjusts forward or backward, and the electric current is produced.
Electrical generators operate in a similar way the cars do. They have an alternator and an engine. The generator converts a fuel such as diesel, gasoline, natural gas, or biogas (chemical energy) into mechanical energy.

2. • The air-cooled cooling system uses air as the cooling medium. The high-speed
moving air generated by the fan removes the heat of the high-temperature parts,
permitting the air cooled diesel engines to operate at the optimum temperature.
• Makers arrange heat sinks on the outer wall of the cylinder and the cylinder head
to increase the heat dissipation area. We also arrange an air hood and a baffle to
properly distribute the cooling air and improve the air utilization rate. The cooling
effect is more effective and uniform.
3. Air-Cooled Diesel Engine
• The air-cooling system comprises a heat sink, a fan, an air hood, and a deflector.
Compared with the water-cooling system, the air-cooling system has the
advantages of few parts, simple structure, the lightweight of the whole machine,
convenient use and maintenance, and good adaptability to regional environmental
changes.
• However, the air cooled diesel engines also has large noise and a high heat load.
The fan consumes a large amount of power and has a low aeration coefficient.
4. Parts Of Cooled Diesel Engine
• The diesel engine cooling system works using a centrifugal fan. The centrifugal fan
of a cooled air diesel engine is often cast together with a flywheel, placed at the
rear end of the diesel engine, and drives through the crankshaft.
• Air is drawn axially from the air inlet and the airflow from the fan volute directly by
the air hood to the cylinder and cylinder head for cooling. The arrangement is
simple and compact, and there is no special fan driving mechanism; the cooling
airflow has less turning, and the flow resistance is small.
• The axial fan drives through the crankshaft through the V-belt at the front end of
the diesel engine. The air flows axially, sucked by the fan, and pressed into the air
chamber composed of the air hood, and each cylinder cools, and then the air flows
out through the splitter plate.
• The difference between air-cooled generator set and water-cooled generator set
Diesel generator sets generate a lot of heat during normal operation. Excessive
heat will cause the unit temperature to rise, which will affect the working
efficiency. Therefore, the cooling system needs equipping to reduce the
temperature. Common cooling systems are water-cooled and air-cooled.
5. • An air-cooled diesel engines uses large fans to force the exhaust air to dissipate
heat from the generator body. Its advantages are simple structure, good
maintenance, no freezing cracks or hot boiling danger.
• The generator set limit by thermal and mechanical load, the power is generally
small, and the power conversion rate of the generator set is relatively low, which is
not energy-saving. The air-cooled machine needs installation in an open cabin,
which requires high environmental requirements and high noise. It needs
treatment in the room for noise reduction. The air-cooling method is more
applicable to small gasoline generators and low-power diesel generator sets.
• In a water-cooled generator set, the water circulates inside and outside the body,
taking away the heat generated inside the body through the heat-dissipating water
tank and the fan. Both functions dissipate heat in the air, and there is not much
difference in the use.
• The advantage of the water-cooled is that the cooling effect is ideal, the cooling is
rapid and stable, and the power conversion rate is high.
6. • The installation site of the water-cooled system has small limitations, low
environmental requirements, low noise, and a remote cooling system. Water
cooling methods apply to small diesel generators and high-power diesel generator
sets. The common diesel generator brands on the market are Cummins, Perkins,
MTU (Mercedes-Benz), Volvo Shangchai, and Weichai.
• Air-cooled systems make use of air circulation to cool the system. Withair-cooled
systems, the engine takes in cooler air from the atmosphere, blowing it internally
across the generator set, keeping the generator from overheating.
• Typically, air-cooled engines are for portable generators and standby generators
with a capacity of up to 22 kilowatts.
7. With Air-Cooled Systems, You Have
Two Options
● Open ventilated systems
● Completely enclosed
• Open ventilation systems use atmospheric air and release the exhaust is into the
atmosphere. On the other hand, enclosed ventilation systems keep re-circulating
the air to cool the internal generator parts.
• Limitations of air-cooled diesel engine
• Air-cooled engines have some limitations:
●They can overheat if used for a long duration in excessive heat, so we
recommend being aware of the ambient temperature and duration of use.
●When air-cooled engines fail, there is the potential for needing significant
repairs. The preventative maintenance and repair tasks require a more
attentive approach compared with liquid-cooled systems.
• Air-cooled engines are slightly less robust as oil breaks down quickly in hotter
conditions, leading to damage occurring without any warning.
8. Liquid Cooled Generator Systems
• Liquid-cooled systems use several types of oil/coolant to cool the internal
generator parts. Liquid-cooled systems offer much better cooling thanair-cooling
systems, which is why liquid-cooled KOHLER® generators price higher than air-
cooled units. Essentially, liquid-cooled engines are comparable to small car
engines.
• Liquid-cooling systems include a radiator and water pump. The pump distributes
the liquid coolant to the engine block through hoses—the heat transfers to the
coolant, which directs through the radiator where the air cools.
• Generally, modern generators above 22 kW utilize liquid-cooling, with air-cooled
engines dominating portable generators.
• Liquid-cooling systems are more expensive to produce than air-cooled diesel
engines; they require additional design consideration and parts, including a
radiator.
• They are more durable and powerful than air-cooled diesel engine counterparts.
Since these generator sets are more expensive, in use for commercial and
industrial purposes where the cooling demand is larger than small residential and
portable units.
9. Which System Do You Need?
• Every system comes with pros and cons. Air-cooled systems are simpler and less
expensive than liquid-cooled systems. Liquid-cooled systems are more robust and
effective. The cooling system you choose should be sufficient for your needs. Air-
cooled systems are capable of the range of their utilization. Unless the ambient
temperature is exceedingly hot, most residential generators will have no problem
cooling via air.
10. Conclusion
• The article is all about the mechanism of an air-cooled diesel engines. We have
established a comparison between liquid-cooled diesel and air-cooled diesel
engines to understand better the context, which will help you make the best
choice.
