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.

The tests were carried out on the marine diesel engine operating by the load characteristic in seven modes, including five modes according to the test cycle D2 regulated by ISO 8178. Based on the experimental results obtained, the specific weighted NOx emissions and their average values were calculated and compared with IMO regulations. In addition, the study carried out a comparative experimental investigation on diesel fuel and dimethyl ether, and different injector opening pressures in the marine diesel engine to reduce its toxic exhaust emissions.

Taking the marine low-speed high power diesel engine frame for example, created a three-dimension model through UG. By using the finite element software ANSYS investigated the body’s stress status and displacement which provides a valuable reference for the structural optimization of the cylinder block of diesel engine’s design.

Цилиндровые втулки относятся к наиболее нагруженным деталям судовых дизелей. Оценка их напряженно-деформированного состояния показывает, что последовательное форсирование дизелей по среднему эффективному давлению требует существенного пересмотра некоторых положений конструирования этих деталей. Это касается конструктивного оформления наружных поверхностей втулок, а также их закрепления в блоке цилиндров. В статье рассматривается влияние условий закрепления верхнего торца втулки и промежуточных опор-уплотнителей на деформирование цилиндровой втулки газовыми нагрузками. Показано, что для выбора оптимального места установки кольца-уплотнителя по длине втулки целесообразно исходить из минимизации воздействий на него со стороны подвижных газовых нагрузок. Предлагается расчётная методика, которая позволяет определить то место установки промежуточной опоры, где она практически не влияет на параметры напряженно-деформированного состояния цилиндровой втулки судового дизеля с учётом особенностей закрепления её верхнего торца в цилиндровом блоке. Применение данной методики позволяет с учётом особенностей конкретного двигателя обоснованно решить вопрос размещения дополнительных опор-уплотнителей. Cylinder bushings are among the most loaded parts of marine diesel engines. Evaluation of their stress-strain state shows that the sequential forcing of diesel engines according to the average effective pressure requires a significant revision of some provisions for the design of these parts. This applies to the design of the outer surfaces of the bushings, as well as their fastening in the cylinder block. The article examines the influence of the conditions for fixing the upper end of the sleeve and intermediate support-seals on the deformation of the cylinder sleeve by gas loads. It is shown that in order to select the optimal place for installing the seal ring along the length of the sleeve, it is advisable to proceed from the minimization of the effects on it from the movable gas loads. A calculation method is proposed that allows you to determine the place of installation of the intermediate support, where it practically does not affect the parameters of the stress-strain state of the cylinder liner of a marine diesel engine, taking into account the peculiarities of fixing its upper end in the cylinder block. The use of this technique allows, taking into account the characteristics of a particular engine, to reasonably solve the issue of placing additional support-seals.

In order to evaluate the flow field characteristics of a marine diesel engine cooling water jacket, and provide a theoretical basis for further optimizing the water jacket structure. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method was used to calculate the three-dimensional flow field of the water jacket. Based on the CFD simulation model of the engine water jacket, the analysis of pressure field, velocity field, streamline distribution and flow uniformity of water jacket of diesel engine under rated condition were carried out. The results show that: the total pressure loss of water jacket is 30.3 kPa, in which the pressure loss of cylinder block is 8.4 kPa, and the one of cylinder head and outlet manifold is 21.9 kPa, which indicates that the flow resistance design of the cylinder block and head is reasonable; the flow rate of coolant in the nose zone of cylinder head is above 1.5 m/s, which meets the cooling demand of cylinder head; the cooling water flows circumferentially in the engine block water jacket, and the flow dead zones are easily formed by the mutual extrusion and collision of the water flows; the outlet of the cylinder head water jacket is connected with the outlet manifold at right angle, which leads to large energy loss of the flow field; the maximum non-uniformity of flow rate of water jacket of each cylinder is 5.85%, which can be further optimized by adjusting the position of water jacket inlet.
