Formation of Static Characteristics of a Diesel Engine

The introduction of modern diesel fuel supply systems and the use of electronic components in control systems provide new possibilities for shaping engine characteristics targeted at specific energy consumers. Under these conditions, the type of engine characteristics is determined by the operation of the air supply system. This work examines the formation of static characteristics for a promising D500 diesel engine for train and ship power plants. Modeling of the diesel operation modes is carried out on computer models in the MATLAB/Simulink and Diesel-RK software packages. Variants of the full-load curves of the diesel engine are presented for different ways of turbocharger control: using a turbine of variable geometry and with sequential turbocharging. The fuel supply is limited according to the air-fuel ratio and the maximum pressure in the engine cylinders. For a variable geometry turbine, a matrix of the positions of the guide vane blades is obtained from the condition of optimizing diesel modes for fuel efficiency. Possibilities to obtain the efficiency characteristic that would provide the minimal fuel consumption for train and ship power plants are shown.
