Abstract
The use of diesel engines as a basic power unit of electric generators in big ship crafts and as a power unit in smaller ship crafts is very common. Low fuel consumption, high resistance to overload and long life span are the basic features which made these engines so commonly used. The development of electronic control of high pressure injection systems of the engine made the service of such an engine not so simple any more. What is more, control systems are directed at reducing fumes toxicity, which does not have to go hand in hand with early detection of engine damages. It happens in the case of a particular group of mechanical damages of the engine, which are undetectable by an onboard diagnostic system in the early stage of the development. The injection system is able to choose regulation parameters in such a way so that the composition of the air fuel mixture is in optimal range, and as a result it hides the information about the damage.This paper presents the results of analysis of the usefulness of the chosen vibroacoustic signal measures in the process of detecting damages of this type.
