To facilitate task of engine designer in ensuring absence of vibration, author investigates by method of harmonic analysis, balancing reciprocating and rotating masses of Diesel engines having from 3 to 9 cylinders; rigidity of whole engine is of greatest importance to successful balancing; as example, case of 6-cylinder engine, consisting of two blocks of three balanced against each other, is given.
