LATERAL VIBRATION ANALYSIS OF MARINE DIESEL ENGINE ON TEST BED

The oil crisis has given rise to the production of new types of marine diesel engines with low fuel consumption. Their characteristics are long stroke, reduced number of cylinders and reduced speed. Dynamic characteristics of the new engines have not yet been investigated. Therefore, a procedure for vibration analysis of these engines on the test bed utilizing the finite element method is presented in this paper. For illustration lateral vibration analysis of the 3rd May-Sulzer 4 RLA 90 engine has been performed. The procedure is verified comparing calculated and measured results.
