If the filter element of the air filter is blocked, or the resistance of the air passing through increases due to quality problems, the diesel engine will suffer from insufficient air intake. If the amount of air entering the cylinder is reduced, the fuel mixture will become inappropriate (usually the mixture is too rich), and the direct result is that the fuel injected into the cylinder is not completely burned. At this time, the diesel engine may have insufficient power and The fault phenomenon of black smoke from the exhaust. What are the effects of a clogged diesel generator air filter?
The main components of the intake system of a diesel engine are: air filter, intake pipeline, compressor, intercooler, intake manifold, etc. These components are mainly responsible for the breathing problems of diesel engines. The intake system has a great influence on the power performance of the diesel engine. If the intake air is insufficient, the diesel engine will be indigested; if the intake air is not clean, it will lead to abnormal early wear of the diesel engine.
1. Air filter factor. The function of the air filter is to filter out dust and impurities in the air, and send clean air (or the combustible mixture of air and fuel) into the combustion chamber to reduce the amount between the piston and the cylinder liner, between the piston group and the valve. wear between groups. In addition, it also has the effect of suppressing the intake noise of the diesel engine.
If the filter element of the air filter is blocked, or the resistance of the air passing through increases due to quality problems, the diesel engine will suffer from insufficient air intake. If the amount of air entering the cylinder is reduced, the fuel mixture will become inappropriate (usually the mixture is too rich), and the direct result is that the fuel injected into the cylinder is not completely burned. At this time, the diesel engine may have insufficient power and The fault phenomenon of black smoke from the exhaust.
2, the intake pipe factors. There is usually a rubber hose connection in the connecting pipeline from the air filter to the intake manifold of the diesel engine (for a supercharged diesel engine, it is the intake port of the compressor). If for some reason the hose is compressed or damaged by internal peeling, etc., it will affect the amount of air passing through, and the result is the same as the blockage of the air filter. It will also lead to the phenomenon of insufficient power of the diesel engine due to insufficient intake air.
