What are the types of Diesel Engines?

Diesel engines can be classified into two-stroke and four-stroke engines, as well as inline and V-type engines. Two-stroke engines are simpler and more compact than four-stroke engines, but are less fuel efficient and emit more pollutants. Four-stroke engines are more complex but offer better fuel efficiency and lower emissions. Inline engines are simpler and more compact than V-type engines, but V-type engines are smoother and more powerful.
