Оценка эффективности работы судового двигателя в динамических процессах

Abstract

The article considers the problem of efficiency of energy objects, which is mainly estimated on the basis of their static characteristics. If dynamic processes take up a significant part of the object's time and budget, then there is a need for additional account of energy losses in transient processes. Using the analysis results it is necessary to select the settings of the object regulators. The problem hasn’t been thrown much light on in the publications. An attempt has been made to estimate the additional energy losses of the main engine operating on the propeller of a transport ship. To analyze the transient process of the dependence of the rotation speed on time, it is assumed that this process is caused by a sharp change in the moment of resistance by a given value. The Excel program was proposed to assess the dependence of the rotation speed on time. 10% of the nominal value of the setting or disturbing influences was chosen as the change leading out of the static equilibrium. To compare various transient processes it is proposed to use the value of the length of the transient process in time. Assessing energy losses was carried out by using the coefficient of increasing power consumption during the transient process. The additional energy losses were proved to make more than 1.0 - 1.5% of the nominal power of the controlled object due to the presence of transient processes at 10% disturbance. By changing the settings of the automatic control system (ACS) these losses can be reduced. It has been found that adjusting the ACS settings to reduce energy losses under disturbing influences leads to the higher energy losses during reference influences.
