i like to design an automatic voltage regulator for a diesel engine as my project. i just need help for this. how can i design this? what r all the components i need for this? shortly i need the logic for this design? can any one help me?...

What is the voltage you are trying to regulate? What is the item that you are trying to regulate the voltage to? You need a voltage regulator, and maybe some resistors and capacitors.
FYI, a diesel engine doesn't run on electricity, it runs on diesel fuel.

It is hard to say without the technical manual for your specific diesel generator (which I assume is much larger than a home-type gasoline unit). But the names suggest that the "automatic voltage regulator" will control voltage within an acceptabe range without the user making adjustments and the "voltage control unit" suggests that the user can adjust (trim) the voltage as desired for sensitive applications. Voltage output may drop as the electrical load is increased from idle to maximum load and the automatic regulator would compensate and minimize the drop (voltage droop).

See the application notes on the Analog Devices or Linear Technology, or Maxim for help.

If you need total help to do something like this, at what seems like to be so late in your educational carreer, you should consider starting all over again.
