🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of an overspeed trip on a diesel engine • What actually makes a diesel engine speed up: which inputs increase power? • Which flows (lube oil, water, exhaust) are primarily for cooling/lubrication vs. power production

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: To quickly stop an overspeeding diesel, which supply must be interrupted so that combustion can no longer continue? • Which of the listed systems, if shut off, would stop the engine fastest without first destroying it from lack of lubrication or cooling? • Think about what a diesel engine fundamentally needs to keep running: which of these four is the real "control lever" for power and speed?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which of the four options directly affects combustion and power output rather than just engine health or temperature. • Eliminate any options that, if shut off suddenly, would damage the engine before it slows down, rather than being a normal control method. • Focus on what an overspeed protection device is designed to do: safely and quickly stop the engine by cutting what the engine "burns" to make power.
