Analysis of the Pre-injection Configuration in a Marine Engine Through Several MCDM Techniques
Rodríguez, Carlos G.; Lamas, M.I.; Rodríguez-García, JuanDeDios; Caccia, Claudio (University of Zagreb Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2021)[Abstract] The present manuscript describes a computational model employed to characterize the performance and emissions of a commercial marine diesel engine. This model analyzes several pre-injection parameters, such as ... -
Multi-criteria analysis to determine the most appropriate fuel composition in an ammonia/diesel oil dual fuel engine
Rodríguez, Carlos G.; Lamas, M.I.; Rodríguez-García, JuanDeDios; Abbas, Amr (MDPI, 2023-03-24)[Abstract] The possibility to employ alternative fuels is gaining special interest in the marine sector. There are several suitable candidates for traditional fossil fuels substitution. Among them, ammonia is a promising ... -
Numerical analysis of several port configurations in the Fairbanks-Morse 38D8-1/8 opposed piston marine engine
Lamas, M.I.; Rodríguez, Carlos G.; Rodríguez-García, JuanDeDios; Telmo Miranda, Javier (University of Zagreb. Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2015)[Abstract] The aim of the present paper is to analyze several port configurations in the Fairbanks-Morse 38D8-1/8 marine diesel engine. The motivation comes from the high number of intake and exhaust ports which characterizes ... -
Optimization of a Multiple Injection System in a Marine Diesel Engine through a Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making Approach
Lamas, M.I.; Castro-Santos, Laura; Rodríguez, Carlos G. (MDPI, 2020)[Abstract] In this work, a numerical model was developed to analyze the performance and emissions of a marine diesel engine, the Wärtsilä 6L 46. This model was validated using experimental measurements and was employed to ... -
Possibilities of Ammonia as Both Fuel and NOᵪ Reductant in Marine Engines: A Numerical Study
Rodríguez, Carlos G.; Lamas, M.I.; Rodríguez-García, JuanDeDios; Abbas, Amr (MDPI, 2022-01)[Abstract] Nowadays, the environmental impact of shipping constitutes an important challenge. In order to achieve climate neutrality as soon as possible, an important priority consists of progressing on the decarbonization ...
