CNH Industrial Mechanical Engineer Interview Questions and Answers

A diesel generator works by converting diesel fuel into mechanical energy which is then converted into electrical energy.

• Diesel fuel is injected into the combustion chamber where it ignites and creates high pressure gases that push the piston down, creating mechanical energy.

• The mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy through the use of an alternator.

• The alternator uses a magnetic field and a conduct...read more

A diesel engine works by compressing air in the cylinder, which heats up and ignites the fuel injected into the cylinder.

• Air is drawn into the cylinder and compressed by the piston

• The compressed air heats up and ignites the fuel injected into the cylinder

• The explosion pushes the piston down, which turns the crankshaft and powers the engine

• Diesel engines are more efficient than gasoline engines because they compress the...read more

A train doesn't need a differential because its wheels are fixed to the same axle and rotate at the same speed.

• Train wheels are fixed to the same axle

• Wheels rotate at the same speed

• Differential is used in vehicles with wheels that rotate at different speeds

• Differential allows for smooth turning

Petrol engines have lower compression ratios compared to diesel engines.

• Petrol engines have lower compression ratios to prevent knocking or detonation.

• Diesel engines have higher compression ratios to ignite the fuel without spark plugs.

• Higher compression ratios in diesel engines result in better fuel efficiency and torque.

• Petrol engines require lower compression ratios to accommodate the lower octane rating of petrol f...read more

The firing order of a 6-cylinder engine is different from that of a 4-cylinder engine.

• The firing order determines the sequence in which the cylinders ignite their fuel-air mixture.

• In a 6-cylinder engine, the firing order can vary depending on the engine design.

• A common firing order for a 6-cylinder engine is 1-5-3-6-2-4.

• In a 4-cylinder engine, the firing order is typically 1-3-4-2.

Lower limit and upper limit are the minimum and maximum values within a given range or set of values.

• Lower limit refers to the minimum value that can be reached or considered.

• Upper limit refers to the maximum value that can be reached or considered.

• These limits define the boundaries or constraints of a particular system or measurement.

• For example, in temperature measurement, the lower limit could be -40 degrees Celsius...read more
