Energy, 2010, vol. 35, issue 2, 1139-1145

Abstract: Emission tests were carried out on a large-scale medium-speed supercharged diesel engine (∼1MW per cylinder) with control parameters compression ratio, start of ignition (SOI) and fuel type (light and heavy fuel oil, LFO and HFO). Emissions of NOx, CO, hydrocarbons (HC), smoke (FSN) and particulate matter (PM) were measured and are discussed in relation to the control parameters. Regarding turbocharger influence on emissions the control parameters by-pass and waste-gate are also briefly addressed.
