CONDITION MONITORING OF DIESEL ENGINES

This paper describes the development of new and advanced instrumentation systems for the monitoring of diesel engines. The most important aspects are dealt with. The basis of an efficient system is thorough knowledge of possible failure mechanisms which is necessary for the development of methods and sensors which can provide meaningful process and component data. Modern instrumentation technology has made the design and construction of advanced electronic units for condition monitoring of components possible. Some of the experience gained from design and operation of such installations is discussed with particular reference to large bore diesel engines.
