Effects of Fuel Injection Mode on Residual Fuel Combustion in High Speed Marine Diesel Engine

JOURNAL OF THE MARINE ENGINEERING SOCIETY IN JAPAN, 1985
To find a basic principle of residual fuel combustion, tests were conducted on heavy fuels of 34.4 cSt and 75.9 cSt at 50°C (200 and 500 sec RW No. 1 at 100°F) using small-sized, high speed diesel engines with a cylinder bore of 110 mm, a stroke of 125 mm and speeds of 2500 and 2600 rpm.

Ash-Decorated and Ash-Painted Soot from Residual and Distillate-Fuel Combustion in Four Marine Engines and One Aviation Engine

Environmental Science & Technology, 2021
Soot is typically the dominant component of the nonvolatile particles emitted from internal combustion engines. Although soot is primarily composed of carbon, its chemistry, toxicity, and oxidation rates may be strongly influenced by internally mixed inorganic metal compounds (ash).

Is Young's Modulus a Critical Coating Property Determining Fouling‐Release Performance of Marine Coatings?

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The release of foulers from protective marine coatings is determined by several interrelated material properties, including the strength of Young's modulus, the flexibility of chain segments, the surface free energy, and the magnitude of hydrodynamic stress.
