What Is the Difference Between In-line and V Type Diesel Generator

by Starlight Generator dieselgeneratortech

In-line Engine: In-line is a widely used cylinder arrangement. All of its cylinders are arranged side by side in a plane. Its cylinder and crankshaft are simple in structure and use a cylinder head. It has low manufacturing cost, high stability, low speed torque characteristics, low fuel consumption and compact size. The disadvantage is that the power is low. When the displacement and the number of cylinders increase, the length of the engine will increase greatly. At present, the number of cylinders of the mainstream in-line engine is 4 cylinders and 6 cylinders.

 

In-line engines are generally suitable for diesel generator sets of 20 kW to 600 kW.

 

V-type engine divides all the cylinders into two groups, and arranges the adjacent cylinders at a certain angle together, so that the two groups of cylinders form a plane with an angle, and the cylinder has a V-shaped engine from the side. Starlight Diesel Generator V-type engine has a small height and length and is stable in operation. It facilitates increased displacement and power by expanding the cylinder diameter and is suitable for higher number of cylinders. In addition, the V-type engine cylinders are arranged in the opposite direction, which can also offset part of the vibration and make the engine run smoother.

 

The disadvantage of the V-type engine is that two cylinder heads must be used, which is complicated in structure and high in cost. In addition, after the width is increased, the space on both sides of the engine is small, and it is difficult to arrange other devices.

 

At present, many Chinese diesel gensets use V-type 12-cylinder and 16-cylinder engines. For example, Yuchai 12VC and 16VC are both V-type engines. Suitable for heavy duty diesel generator sets from 1000kw to 2400kw. The power of the V-type diesel generator set is relatively large.
