Temperature control characteristics of intelligent cooling system for high-speed marine diesel engine

To improve energy conservation and reduce emissions of an engine, this study applies intelligent thermal management to a cooling system. With a marine high-speed diesel engine as the research object, an intelligent cooling system based on controllable cooling components was developed. A variable-universe fuzzy control algorithm is designed to control an electronic thermostat, and a ‘T–S fuzzy control + BP-PID’ control algorithm is proposed to control standard electric drive pumps. The experimental results indicate that the intelligent cooling system considerably reduces the warm-up time, achieves accurate cooling, and effectively inhibits the hot immersion phenomenon. The intelligent control algorithm has control characteristics such as rapid response, strong adaptive ability, small overshoot, smooth transition, and high precision. The intelligent cooling system reduced the cooling-system power consumption by 5.52%–57.93%, fuel consumption rate by 1.43%–5.15%, smoke emission by 1.40%–4.69%, CO emission by 2.14%–6.03%, and HC emission by 7.41%–12.26%.
