Abstract

It is significant that marine diesel engines should be run in accordance with factory or sea trial tests from the point of power and fuel consumption. It might not be possible to measure directly the power over the engine at the required load ranges. This is acceptable for both generator engine and main engine. In classical performance evaluation, compression pressure, maximum pressure, exhaust temperature and fuel pump index values are measured during operation. However, it is not possible to find the real reason of the fault in case of deterioration in the performance values. By solving the faults with palliative methods, far greater engine faults occurred in medium and long term due to the fact that the engine cannot be kept in high performance conditions. In this study, the parameters affecting the power and fuel consumption are evaluated by using p-V
