Abstract

The paper presents an innovative method for assessing technical condition of a marine diesel engine that drives synchronous generator. It is based on the measurement and analysis of generators phase-to-phase voltage. Additionally, it requires the measurement of a pseudoperiodic signal [3] with a period equal to duration of engines working cycle. The basis for developing method was the assumption that rotational speed fluctuations of an engines crankshaft (and also the generator) depend on a course of a working process carried out in it. The generators phase-to-phase voltage is directly dependent on a rotational speed fluctuation of its rotor. It must therefore be possible to assess a course of a working process of an engine based on a voltage waveform of a synchronous generator that cooperates ogether.

Highlights

  • An important group of engines used in shipbuilding diesel engines propelling ship's generators

  • The paper presents an innovative method for assessing technical condition of a marine diesel engine that drives synchronous generator

  • The study was conducted model for other states of partial technical suitability arguing that it should be possible to detect and identify damage involving: reducing a dose of fuel supplied to a cylinder by more than 20% of a nominal dose, change of injection timing, leaks in the piston-rings-cylinder system, changing an active cross-section of an injector holes

Method for assessing the technical condition of marine diesel engine driving the synchronous generator. The paper presents an innovative method for assessing technical condition of a marine diesel engine that drives synchronous generator. It is based on the measurement and analysis of generator's phase-to-phase voltage. The basis for developing method was the assumption that rotational speed fluctuations of an engine’s crankshaft (and the generator) depend on a course of a working process carried out in it. The generator's phase-to-phase voltage is directly dependent on a rotational speed fluctuation of its rotor. It must be possible to assess a course of a working process of an engine based on a voltage waveform of a synchronous generator that cooperates together
