The well-developed noise separatrion techniques are applied to the V8 RG8 Diesel engine for the engine noise reduction of a commercial vehicle. For various loads and engine RPM's, the contribution of the combustion oriented noise and the mechanically induced noise was calculated under the small variations of the injection timing. For the given Diesel engine the mechanical noise is dominant for low rpm, and the contribution of the combustion noise becomes greater as the rpm increases. The combustion noise is dominant around 2kHz range or under 50% loading condition.
