Notes on evolution in marine diesel engine field, towards high outputs, with particular reference to circumstances which led Fiat to design and build 900S type engine; characteristics of this engine, based on 900 mm bore cylinders and pistons with 1600 mm stroke developing output of 2300 bhp/cyl; results of tests on 2-cyl set, including those for behavior of liners and piston rings; main operating data for 14 engines, and information on their behavior in service; some improvements were carried out following practical experience.
