The marine diesel engine combustion process is discontinuous and unsteady, resulting in complicated simulations and applications. When the diesel engine is used in the system integration simulation and investigation, a suitable combustion model has to be developed due to compatibility to the other components in the system. The Seiliger process model uses finite combustion stages to perform the main engine combustion characteristics and using the cycle time scale instead of the crank angle shortens the simulation time. Obtaining the defined Seiliger parameters used to calculate the engine performance such as peak pressure, temperature and work is significant and fitting process has to be carried out to get the parameters based on experimental investigation. During the combustion fitting, an appropriate mathematics approach is selected for root finding of non-linear multi-variable functions since there is a large amount of used experimental data. A direct injection marine engine test bed is applied for the experimental investigation based on the combustion fitting approach. The results of each cylinder and four-cylinder averaged pressure signals are fitted with the Seiliger process that is shown separately to obtain the Seiliger parameters, and are varied together with these parameters and with engine operating conditions to provide the basis for engine combustion modeling.

Рассматриваются подходы по определению пороговых значений концентрации продуктов износа в отработанном цилиндровом масле, характеризующие переход объекта диагностирования судового крейцкопфного дизеля из одного технического состояния в другое. Показано, что существующие методики не учитывают индивидуальные особенности и техническое состояние деталей цилиндропоршневой группы. Предложено для решения задачи их трибодиагностики использовать разработанную имитационную модель, позволяющую провести моделирование процесса изнашивания цилиндровой втулки и поршневых колец судового дизеля и на основании полученных расчетов определить концентрацию продуктов износа поступивших в отработанное цилиндровое масло при различной скорости изнашивания трущихся деталей. Данные о фактической концентрации продуктов износа в отработанном цилиндровом масле в дальнейшем соотносятся с результатами моделирования, что позволяет оценить техническое состояние деталей цилиндропоршневой группы двигателя. Представлены результаты моделирования по определению пороговых значений концентрации продуктов износа в отработанном цилиндровом масле, характеризующее переход судового дизеля из исправного в несправное техническое состояние. Даны практические рекомендации по выбору пороговых значений содержания продуктов износа в отработанном цилиндровом масле для различных типов судовых крейцкопфных дизелей и условий их эксплуатации.The article examines approaches to determine the threshold values of the concentration of wear debris in used cylinder oil that characterize the transition of a ship crosshead diesel engine unit under test from one technical condition to another. It is shown that the existing methods do not take into account the individual characteristics and technical condition of the parts of the cylinder-piston group. To solve the problem of tribodiagnostics, it is proposed to use the developed simulation model, which allows modeling the wear process of the cylinder bushing and piston rings of a marine diesel engine and, based on the obtained results, determining the concentration of wear products issued in the used cylinder oil at different wear rates of the moving parts. The data on the actual concentration of wear products in the used cylinder oil are subsequently correlated with the simulation model results, which makes it possible to evaluate the technical condition of the parts of the engine cylinder-piston group. The article presents the results of modeling of threshold values determination of the concentration of wear products in used cylinder oil, that measure the transition of a marine diesel engine from a working condition to a malfunctioning technical condition. Practical recommendations are given on choosing threshold values for the concentration of wear products in used cylinder oil for various types of marine crosshead diesel engines and their operating conditions.

Increasing demands on energy efficiency and environmental acceptance are being imposed on marine propulsion plants. The fulfilment of the conditions set by the MARPOL Convention, Annex VI, regarding the emissions from exhaust gases of marine diesel engines is of particular interest. This paper presents the development and validation of a zero-dimensional, single-zone diesel engine numerical model. Presented numerical model is based on the law of conservation of energy and mass and solving the resulting differential equations. The single-zone model will serve as the basis for a model where the cylinder space is divided into two or three zones during combustion. In this way, the multi-zone model will allow the modelling of nitrogen oxide emissions with satisfactory accuracy. Validation of the diesel engine model was carried out for the Wärtsilä 12V50DF 11700 kW motor designed to drive a synchronous alternator. Obtained results and deviations of certain parameters in the operation of the engine with respect to the data obtained from the measurements on the test bed, are more than satisfactory regarding complexity of the numerical model. This confirmed the usability of the model for research purposes to optimize the marine diesel engine.

The compressor tonal noise of a low-speed marine diesel engine turbocharger is investigated with numerical method. Nine operating conditions on four different rotating speed lines are analyzed; the conditions include near-choke conditions, near-surge conditions, and peak efficiency conditions. Numerical predictions of compressor global variables are compared with experimental measurements, and a good agreement is achieved. The pressure fluctuation at all operating conditions presents strong periodicity, and the prominent peaks of pressure amplitude appear at the blade passing frequency and its harmonics after Fast Fourier transform algorithm. Furthermore, the fluctuation strength varies with the changes in operating conditions. Then, the pressure fluctuation is used to acquire the aero-acoustic source, and the compressor tonal noise and the compressor broadband noise are calculated by the boundary element method. The compressor tonal noise increases with operating conditions shift to high rotating speed and the surge line. The acoustic directivity of radiated tonal noise at inlet duct nozzle is obvious, which is particularly detectable at the blade passing frequency. The further analysis shows that the acoustic directivity is greatly influenced by the frequency, compressor rotating speed, and total-to-total pressure ratio.

With the advantages of ultra-low emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NOX) and high thermal efficiency, the homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) mode applied to marine diesel engine is expected to be one of the technical solutions to meet the International Maritime Organization (IMO) MARPOL73/78 Convention-Annex VI Amendment Tier III requirement. According to the NOX chemical reaction mechanism, taking a marine diesel engine as the application object, the numerical study on the NOX formation characteristics of n-heptane for HCCI combustion process is performed. The results indicate that NO is usually the main component in the generation and emissions of NOX with the n-heptane HCCI mode. The combustor temperature plays more important role in the proportion of NO generation and emission. Compared with the experimental data of conventional marine diesel engine, the emission reduction rate of NOX can achieve an average of more than 95% in using HCCI technology.
