Summary

This video explains the operation of Yenbakker gas engines, which use a mixture of air and gas for combustion. The air is drawn through an air filter, and the gas is supplied via the gas train, both mixed in the gas mixer. The mixture is compressed in a turbocharger and cooled in an intercooler before entering the engine. After combustion, hot exhaust gases drive the turbocharger, and the heat generated is managed by a jacket water system, which circulates through the engine to maintain optimal performance.

Takeaways

• 😀 Yenbakker gas engines are fueled by a mixture of air and gas.
• 😀 Air enters the engine through the air filter, while gas is supplied via the gas train.
• 😀 The air and gas are mixed together in the gas mixer to power the engine.
• 😀 The mixture is compressed in a turbocharger to increase power output.
• 😀 As the compressed mixture heats up, it is cooled in an intercooler to prevent overheating.
• 😀 The mixture passes through the throttle valve to regulate the amount entering the combustion chambers.
• 😀 Exhaust gases, generated after combustion, are used to drive the turbocharger before leaving the genset.
• 😀 Heat is released during combustion, and one way to extract this heat is through the jacket water circuit.
• 😀 The jacket water circuit maintains optimal engine temperature for performance by circulating hot water.
• 😀 The jacket water pump circulates water into the engine block, where it heats up and travels through the cylinder heads.
• 😀 After collecting in the manifold, the hot water passes through a heat exchanger to cool before being pumped back into the system.

Q & A

What fuels a yenbakker gas engine?

A yenbakker gas engine is fueled by a mixture of air and gas.

How does air enter a yenbakker gas engine?

Air is sucked into the engine through the air filter.

How is gas delivered to the engine?

Gas is delivered via the gas train.

What happens to the air and gas mixture before combustion?

The air and gas mixture is mixed together in the gas mixer to ensure optimal combustion.

What role does the turbocharger play in a yenbakker gas engine?

The turbocharger compresses the air-gas mixture to increase power output, though this compression also heats up the mixture.

Why is the air-gas mixture cooled in the intercooler?

The mixture is cooled in the intercooler to avoid uncontrolled combustion due to the heat generated during compression.

How is the amount of air-gas mixture entering the engine controlled?

The throttle valve controls the amount of mixture entering the inlet manifold and individual combustion chambers, similar to the accelerator pedal in a car.

What happens to the exhaust gas after combustion in the engine?

The hot exhaust gas is used to drive the turbocharger before leaving the genset.

How is heat from the engine used efficiently?

The jacket water circuit extracts heat from the engine, which helps maintain optimal engine temperature and performance.

What is the function of the jacket water pump?

The jacket water pump circulates water into the engine block, where it heats up before flowing through the cylinder heads, collecting heat, and passing through a heat exchanger to cool down.
