Question 1

The flywheel on a marine diesel engine is fitted mainly to:

Drive the lube-oil pump directly at all engine speeds Store rotational energy so the crankshaft turns smoothly between power strokes Fan cooling air across the crankcase sump Set the maximum fuel rack position at full load

Correct Answer:

Store rotational energy so the crankshaft turns smoothly between power strokes

Question 2

What is the chief function of scavenging in a two-stroke-cycle marine diesel engine?

To inject fuel at the correct crank angle To remove burned exhaust gases and replace them with fresh air To circulate lube oil to the wrist pin To cool the fuel injector tip between firings

Correct Answer:

To remove burned exhaust gases and replace them with fresh air

Question 3

A marine diesel engine governor is best described as a device that:

Limits maximum cylinder firing pressure Automatically adjusts fuel rack position to maintain a set engine speed under varying load Controls jacket cooling water temperature Times the opening of the exhaust valves

Correct Answer:

Automatically adjusts fuel rack position to maintain a set engine speed under varying load

Question 4

The main function of a diesel fuel injection pump is to:

Separate water from the fuel before it reaches the day tank Deliver a measured quantity of fuel at high pressure to the injector at the correct crank angle Cool the injector nozzle tip between injections Regulate jacket-water flow through the cylinder head

Correct Answer:

Deliver a measured quantity of fuel at high pressure to the injector at the correct crank angle

Question 5

On a marine diesel, the primary purpose of fuel injection timing is:

To control engine cooling water temperature To regulate scavenge air volume To set the crank angle at which fuel begins to burn so combustion peaks shortly after top dead center To set lube oil pressure to the main bearings

Correct Answer:

To set the crank angle at which fuel begins to burn so combustion peaks shortly after top dead center
