II. OUTLINE
A) FUEL SYSTEM
It consists of storage tank, strainers, fuel transfer
pump and all day fuel tank. The fuel oil is supplied at the
plant site by rail or road. The oil is stored in the storage
tank. From the storage tank, oil is pumped to smaller all
day tank at daily or short intervals. From this tank, fuel oil
is passed through strainers to remove suspended
impurities. The clean oil is injected into the engine by fuel
injection pump.
Engine Performance
The rapid cyclic action in an actual engine modifies
the ideal cycle of Figure. The diagram corners are no
longer sharp, fuel must be injected ahead of dead-center,
etc. The forms of “indicator cards,” which are instrument-
drawn p-v’s from running engines, are shown in Figure for
both 2- and 4- cycle types.

Operating principal:
The generator set is normally operated in a fully
automatic mode and will start and take up load fully
automatically. The start signal normally given from the
Wartsila operator interface system (WOIS) monitor in the
central control room.
2) Stop sequence
Normally the engine will be stopped from the
operators Wartsila operator interface system monitor
(WOIS). When engine stop has been selected confirmed on
the WOIS screen, the PLC system will stop the engine
according to the preset stop sequence. The generator is
first unloaded close to no load valve and then breaker
open command is given and the engine is automatically
shut down after a 30 sec run without load.
