The turbocharged diesel engine has been familiar to marine engineers for many years and it is well known that their dynamic characteristics can vary greatly with load and speed (Wellstead et al. 1978). The mechanical and hydraulic speed control governors used on many diesel engine today, however, take little account of these varying characteristics. The current trend towards microcomputer-based digital engine management, however, means that mechanical and hydraulic governors will almost certainly be replaced by digital speed regulators which offer the opportunity of employing sophisticated control algorithms which would be able to compensate for these variations. This would lead to improvements in both fuel economy and transient response thus motivating the study reported in this paper. This paper describes the identification of the dynamic response of a turbocharged marine diesel engine using parameter estimation techniques. The implementation of a simple 3-term microcomputer-based controller is also described.
