Book Description
The international marine shipping industry is responsible for the transport of around 90% of the total world trade. Low-speed two-stroke diesel engines usually propel the largest trading ships. This engine type choice is mainly motivated by its high fuel efficiency and the capacity to burn cheap low-quality fuels. To reduce the marine freight impact on the environment, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has introduced stricter limits on the engine pollutant emissions. One of these new restrictions, named Tier III, sets the maximum NOx emissions permitted. New emission reduction technologies have to be developed to fulfill the Tier III limits on two-stroke engines since adjusting the engine combustion alone is not sufficient. There are several promising technologies to achieve the required NOx reductions, Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) is one of them. For automotive applications, EGR is a mature technology, and many of the research findings can be used directly in marine applications. However, there are some differences in marine two-stroke engines, which require further development to apply and control EGR. The number of available engines for testing EGR controllers on ships and test beds is low due to the recent introduction of EGR. Hence, engine simulation models are a good alternative for developing controllers, and many different engine loading scenarios can be simulated without the high costs of running real engine tests. The primary focus of this thesis is the development and validation of models for two-stroke marine engines with EGR. The modeling follows a Mean Value Engine Model (MVEM) approach, which has a low computational complexity and permits faster than real-time simulations suitable for controller testing. A parameterization process that deals with the low measurement data availability, compared to the available data on automotive engines, is also investigated and described. As a result, the proposed model is parameterized to two different two-stroke engines showing a good agreement with the measurements in both stationary and dynamic conditions. Several engine components have been developed. One of these is a new analytic in-cylinder pressure model that captures the influence of the injection and exhaust valve timings without increasing the simulation time. A new compressor model that can extrapolate to low speeds and pressure ratios in a physically sound way is also described. This compressor model is a requirement to be able to simulate low engine loads. Moreover, a novel parameterization algorithm is shown to handle well the model nonlinearities and to obtain a good model agreement with a large number of tested compressor maps. Furthermore, the engine model is complemented with dynamic models for ship and propeller to be able to simulate transient sailing scenarios, where good EGR controller performance is crucial. The model is used to identify the low load area as the most challenging for the controller performance, due to the slower engine air path dynamics. Further low load simulations indicate that sensor bias can be problematic and lead to an undesired black smoke formation, while errors in the parameters of the controller flow estimators are not as critical. This result is valuable because for a newly built engine a proper sensor setup is more straightforward to verify than to get the right parameters for the flow estimators.

This book offers a comprehensive and timely overview of internal combustion engines for use in marine environments. It reviews the development of modern four-stroke marine engines, gas and gas–diesel engines and low-speed two-stroke crosshead engines, describing their application areas and providing readers with a useful snapshot of their technical features, e.g. their dimensions, weights, cylinder arrangements, cylinder capabilities, rotation speeds, and exhaust gas temperatures. For each marine engine, information is provided on the manufacturer, historical background, development and technical characteristics of the manufacturer’s most popular models, and detailed drawings of the engine, depicting its main design features. This book offers a unique, self-contained reference guide for engineers and professionals involved in shipbuilding. At the same time, it is intended to support students at maritime academies and university students in naval architecture/marine engineering with their design projects at both master and graduate levels, thus filling an important gap in the literature.

Book Description
Due to their durability, cost-effectiveness and high efficiency, the large two-stroke marine engines are widely used by the merchant ships. However, as the conventional two-stroke diesel engines suffer from the high pollutants emissions, the dual fuel versions burning natural gas and pilot fuel to initiate combustion is an alternative, which can considerably reduce the engine environmental footprint. The application of the high pressure and direct injection of the natural gas can remarkably benefit the emissions. In order to understand in-depth the full-cycle operating processes in a two-stroke dual fuel marine engine with high-pressure gas direct injection, the related CFD models were customized and developed by the use of ANSYS Fluent, and validated by employing available experimental data. Subsequently, the parametric investigation of the dual fuel injection was conducted and the recommended sets of design parameters are identified. Furthermore, the internal processes in the whole cycle of the engine dual fuel and the diesel operating mode were analysed and compared.The spray process of the liquid/pilot fuel was modelled and validated by the available experimental data, taking into account the variable Thermophysical liquid fuel properties with the ambient conditions. Aiming to develop the models for the high-pressure gas injection, the conserving-equation sources approach was developed, considering the effects of the barrel-shaped shocks patterns near the nozzle exit. The derived CFD models were validated by the published measured penetrations of nitrogen injection under two pressure ratios values.As the diffusion flame dominates in the high-pressure direct injection (HPDI) gas combustion, the non-premixed dual fuel combustion model was developed, in which the pilot fuel combustion was treated as the ignition kernel. Based on the measurements in the rapid compression and expansion machine (RCEM), the derived heat release rate (HRR) and the NO emission was used to validate the CFD results. By comparing the results of the two investigated non-premixed combustion models, the steady flamelet diffusion model was recommended, where the reaction rates of Hanson and Salimian (1984) for the extended Zeldvich mechanism were applied.In order to determine the injection and geometric parameters of dual fuel operation in the marine engine S60ME, the parametric research of HPDI, combustion processes was conducted with the aim to maintain the power level and reduce the NO and CO2 emissions. The investigated parameters included the dual fuel injection timing, the gas injection duration, the lateral angle of gas nozzle, the holes number of gas injector, and the different inclination angle for each gas hole.Based on the results of the conducted parametric study, the dual fuel design parameters for the marine engine S60ME were recommended. By using the developed dual fuel combustion models, the whole-cycle processes in the large two-stroke marine dual fuel engine were investigated, by comparing the diesel model operating mode. The results indicated that the NO and CO2 emissions for the dual fuel mode were lower than that of the diesel mode by 31% and 21% respectively. The diffusion flame for the diesel mode was located downstream the liquid vapour plumes, whilst the dual fuel mode exhibited the high-temperature flame in the vicinity of the stoichiometric surface of the gas plumes. Moreover, the diesel mode achieved the higher flame temperature than the dual fuel mode. Due to the lower carbon dioxide (CO2) for the duel fuel combustion, the scavenging efficiency for the dual fuel mode was 4.2% higher than that of the diesel mode.
