How Does The Rotary Oil Pump of The Diesel Generator Work?

The rotary oil pump of a diesel generator consists of components such as a casing, inner rotor, outer rotor, and pump body. The inner rotor is fixed to the rotor shaft with a key or pin, and is directly or indirectly driven by the crankshaft gear. The inner rotor drives the outer rotor to rotate together in the same direction. The inner rotor has 4 convex teeth and the outer rotor has 5 concave teeth, so that the inner and outer rotors rotate in the same direction but not synchronously.

The tooth profile of the rotor is designed so that when the rotor is turned at any angle, the tooth profile lines of each tooth of the inner and outer rotors can always make point contact with each other. In this way, four working chambers are formed between the inner and outer rotors, and the volume of these four working chambers changes continuously as the rotor rotates. On one side of the oil inlet passage, due to the disengagement of the rotor, the volume gradually increases, creating a vacuum. The oil is sucked in, and the rotor continues to rotate. The oil is carried to the side of the oil outlet passage. At this time, the rotor enters the engagement, causing the volume of this cavity to decrease, the oil pressure to increase, and the oil is squeezed out from the teeth and pressed out through the oil outlet. In this way, as the hand rotates continuously, the oil is constantly sucked in and pressed out.


The oil pumping principle is that due to the continuous entry and exit of the gear teeth in the gear pump, the volume of the oil suction chamber and the oil discharge chamber change. When the gear teeth exit the engagement, the volume of the oil suction chamber increases, generating suction and oil suction. When the gear teeth enter the engagement, the volume of the oil discharge chamber decreases, resulting in pressure and oil discharge.


As for the pressure generated by the oil pump, it is mainly due to the flow resistance of the oil in the pressure range of the lubrication system. It can be seen that the oil pressure of the lubrication system depends on the flow resistance at the end of the oil pump. If the flow resistance at the end of the oil pump in the lubrication system is high, the oil pressure will be high. On the contrary, the flow resistance is small and the oil pressure is low.


The actual pumping amount of the oil pump is equal to the theoretical pumping amount minus the oil pump leakage amount. If the leakage of the oil pump increases, the effective pump oil volume decreases, that is, the output oil volume decreases and the pressure decreases.


The rotary oil pump has a compact structure, small size, light weight, high oil suction vacuum, large pump oil volume, good oil supply uniformity, and low cost. It is widely used in small and medium-sized diesel engines, such as the Cummins 6BT, Iveco 8140, and Deutz BFM1013.

What Is the Difference Between Electric Motor and Electric Generator

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force. In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction. An electric generator operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. Electric generator can be divided into various type, open type, silent type, trailer type, portable type and container type, etc. Electric generator is mainly composed of diesel engine & alternator. Electric generator set is mainly composed of engine, alternator, control module, and common base. Electric generator :- Electric generator is a type of machine which converts mechanical input (energy) into electrical output (

Engine Fault Code Messages - Volvo Penta Engine

Volvo Penta Engine Fault Code When a malfunction has occurred and the diagnostic system has generated one or more fault codes, these are read out differently depending on the equipment used. Please refer to “Fault code messages”. If the system indicates that a fault code has been set: 1 Cut engine speed to idle, or shut the Volvo engine off. 2 For DCU/DU Read the fault code from the display, please refer to Reading fault codes via the DCU or Reading fault codes via the DU. For CIU press the diagnostic button and read the fault code, by observing the flashing of the diagnostic lamp. Refer to Reading fault codes via the diagnostic lamp, CIU. 3 Look up the fault code in the Fault Code Register chapter and take the recommended measures. Reading fault codes via the DU (Display Unit) Depending on the severity of the fault the text, either WARNING! or ALARM STOP (a buzzer sounds) will be shown on the display 1 Press any button to come to the fault list.

Types of Diesel Engine and Application of Diesel Generator

This article will guide you to learn diesel engine types and important role of diesel generator. If you are interested, please keep reading.  What Are Diesel Engines? A type of internal combustion engine more accurately known as a compression ignition engine is designed to provide power by compressing the fuel at high temperature and significant pressure until it ignites. Diesel engines are either two-stroke or four-stroke .   ‘Stroke’ means the movement of the piston in the engine. Two-stroke This engine uses one stroke in each direction.   The first stroke being compression, which results in the ignition of the compressed fuel.   The return stroke brings new fuel into the cylinder. Four-stroke This engine has one compression stroke and one exhaust stroke and each one of those has a return stroke – hence, four-stroke. The compression stroke compresses the fuel/air mixture prior to ignition.   The exhaust stroke pushes the burnt gases out the exhaust. The
