This study is based on experimental test results, typical for small passenger car diesel engines. The influence of engine size on the performance of the car was investigated using four different types of engine. The four types of engine were (a) naturally aspirated engine, (b) engine with turbocharger and waste gate, (c) engine with pressure wave supercharger (PWS) and (d) engine with PWS and intercooler. The performance of the car fitted with the pressure wave supercharger ComprexR* was examined and found to have excellent response, reduced fuel consumption and reduced exhaust emissions.

This paper discusses the possibility of improving the part load performance of diesel electric turbocharged engines operating at constant speed conditions. A sequential turbocharged system is proposed, where the compressors are connected In series. The study focused on two turbocharged diesel–electric generating sets existing at Ameria Petroleum Refining Company in Alexandria, Egypt. The results of the prediction showed that, at part load, both the maximum pressure and temperature were increased, and the brake specific fuel consumption was reduced considerably (by about 10 per cent).

This paper presents the benefits of the more electric vessels powered by hybrid engines and investigates the suitability of a particular prime-mover for a specific ship type using a simulation environment which can approach the actual operating conditions. The performance of a mega yacht (70m), powered by two 4.5MW recuperated gas turbines is examined in different voyage scenarios. The analysis is accomplished for a variety of weather and hull fouling conditions using a marine gas turbine performance software which is constituted by six modules based on analytical methods. In the present study, the marine simulation model is used to predict the fuel consumption and emission levels for various conditions of sea state, ambient and sea temperatures and hull fouling profiles. In addition, using the aforementioned parameters, the variation of engine and propeller efficiency can be estimated. Finally, the software is coupled to a creep life prediction tool, able to calculate the consumption of creep life of the high pressure turbine blading for the predefined missions. The results of the performance analysis show that a mega yacht powered by gas turbines can have comparable fuel consumption with the same vessel powered by high speed Diesel engines in the range of 10MW. In such Integrated Full Electric Propulsion (IFEP) environment the gas turbine provides a comprehensive candidate as a prime mover, mainly due to its compactness being highly valued in such application and its eco-friendly operation. The simulation of different voyage cases shows that cleaning the hull of the vessel, the fuel consumption reduces up to 16%. The benefit of the clean hull becomes even greater when adverse weather condition is considered. Additionally, the specific mega yacht when powered by two 4.2MW Diesel engines has a cruising speed of 15 knots with an average fuel consumption of 10.5 [tonne/day]. The same ship powered by two 4.5MW gas turbines has a cruising speed of 22 knots which means that a journey can be completed 31.8% faster, which reduces impressively the total steaming time. However the gas turbine powered yacht consumes 9 [tonne/day] more fuel. Considering the above, Gas Turbine looks to be the only solution which fulfills the next generation sophisticated high powered ship engine requirements.
