Market Scenario:, The diesel engine is an internal combustion engine that uses the heat of compression for ignition of a fuel charge. Mechanical ignition components used in gasoline engines, such as spark plugs, coils, and distributor assemblies, are not required for ignition. Instead, as the piston in a diesel engine cylinder moves upward on its compression stroke, it compresses the air in the cylinder. The air temperature in the cylinder increases to ignite the diesel fuel as it is injected into the cylinder. Despite the fundamental difference in the way, ignition occurs, the major components of a diesel engine are similar to those found in a gasoline engine. Both, the engines have a cylinder block, crankshaft, valve train, camshaft, pistons, and connecting rods. They both require a lubrication system and a cooling system., Diesel power engines are used in various sectors such as industrial, commercial, and residential for standby, prime, continuous, and peak shaving. Increase in demand for data centres and IT facilities, and rapid urbanization in developing countries, are projected to drive the diesel power engine market. However, the emergence of alternate sources of power generation may restrain the market growth., Global diesel power engine market has been segmented based on operation, rated power, end-user and region. Based on the operation the market is segmented into standby, prime, and peak shaving. Among these, the standby segment is estimated to dominate the diesel power engine market in 2017. Also, it is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period due to the increased requirement for backup power in various applications such as residential, hospitals, and power plants for quick power generation. Based on the rated power, the market is segmented into Up To 0.5 MW, 0.5–1 MW, 1–2 MW, 2–5 MW, and Above 5 MW. The 1 MW-2 MW segment is estimated to dominate the diesel power engine market in 2017. Diesel engines of this power rating are used in large residential areas, commercial buildings, universities, and industrial applications for standby and prime applications. Moreover, the growing urbanization and industrialization in regions such as Asia Pacific and the Middle East
