Valve arrangement merely depends on no of cylinders, Each cylinder can use two valves (one exhaust one intake) or Each cylinder can use four valves (2 intake and 2 exhaust).

Three valves can also be used as per requirement of the vehicle.

Choice of valve totally depends on engine design requirement. It can be two for basic study purpose and can be four in practical cases. There is no law governing three valve system in a diesel engine.

A multi-valve engine design typically has three, four, or five valves per cylinder to achieve improved performance only. But any four-stroke internal combustion engine needs at least two valves per cylinder. Fuel injector is consider as a port.

I have studied diesel engines two valves. One is inlet valve other.

One is exhaust valve. The fuel injector is a fuel in a combustion chamber.

Yes there are three valve present in diesel engine.

Fuel injector doesn't have a valve it is actuated by the camshaft but doesn't have valve.

It is not necessary that diesel engine has only 3 valves.

I have studied BMW, cummins and Leyland engine and found 4 valves there.

There is no fuel injector valve in CI engine. But FI works like a valve function.

Diesel engine two valve or four valve, inlet valve & exhaust valve.

I have studied diesel engine has two valves, fuel injector is a port that delivers only fuel in combustion chamber.
