Identification of diesel engine defects of corvette type naval ships
Abstract: One of the main machineries of a ship is the high-speed diesel engine, which is used for main and auxiliary propulsion systems. Due to the high cost of these assets, their operational reliability needs to be optimally ensured for efficient and effective exploitation of these machineries. The current existing flow chart of registering diesel engine defects has been reviewed and a new methodology, which is more systematic and reliable has …

Design and Analysis of Multicylinder Four Stroke Spark Ignition Axial Engine (Duke Engine)
Abstract: Engine is a very important component in automobiles and it is act as a prime mover. The engine transmits power to the road wheels trough linkages (Clutch, gearbox, propeller shaft and differential) against to the self-weight of the vehicle and external load, which results the engine components undergo stressed. The engine components also exposed to the heat so that the thermal stress are induced. Based on the above said points …

CFD Analysis and Modification of Muffler of 1067 cc4 Cylinder Inline Engine for Better Performance
Abstract: Back pressure is one of the important parameter which determine the performance of the muffler. Pressure drop of the exhaust system includes losses due to piping, silencer, and termination. The most critical mechanical factor regarding backpressure of any commercial modified and available muffler is cross flow perforated tube in which the diameter of the perforated tube hole and porosity of the perforations are most critical. In this paper, the objective …

Case Study of a Typical Underperformed Waste Heat Recovery Power Plant and Remedial Measures
Abstract: With the development of technology, the efficiency of combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) has crossed the barrier of 60%. In this paper, a typical problem of low-output generation of a CCGT plant is analysed. During 1st four months of operation of the plant, the sustainable steam turbine power output was between 36 and 36.5 MW against the design output of 37.2 MW. This marginal drop is acceptable considering the degradation factor …

Performance Analysis Of A Bio Diesel Fuelled Diesel Engine With The Effect Of Titanium Oxide (TiO2) Coated Piston
Abstract: Biodiesel is one of the best alternative fuel to diesel engine among other sources due to having potential to reduce emissions. Biodiesel is a renewable, biodegradable and environment friendly fuel in nature. The advantages of biodiesel are lower exhaust gas emissions and its biodegradability and renewability compared with petroleum based diesel fuel. The energy of the biodiesel can be released more efficiently with the concept of semi adiabatic (thermal barrier …
