Analysis of current trends in the use of internal combustion engines on ships
Abstract
The article provides data on internal combustion engines installed as main engines on ships built under the technical supervision of the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping in 2017 — 2022. There is a tendency to reduce the use of low-speed internal combustion engines on ships of domestic construction with an increase in the proportion of medium- and high-speed diesels. The reasons for this trend are analyzed, which are assumed to be as follows: increased efficiency and power of medium-speed diesels, the composition of the fleet under construction in Russia, the active growth in the use of screw steering columns as propellers, the lack of demand for lowspeed diesels in other transport and energy sectors.
