all heavy fuels available on the market. The engine is fitted with water-cooled cages and exhaust valves, especially adapted to the fuel's vanadium content. The ad- vanced technology of the PC-2.6 engine enables it to burn the poor- est foreseeable heavy fuel without major modifications. The Colt Pielstick PC-4.2V, rated from 16,270 to 29,286 bhp, is able to burn residual fuels of up to 4,000 sec. Redwood #1 at 100 F with a 400 ppm vanadium content. The Colt Pielstick engines are backed by SEMT Pielstick's ongo- ing research and development pro- grams. The PC engine family has approximately 60 million hours of experience running on heavy fuels. six-cylinder models developing 400- 475 continuous bhp at 1,800 rpm; displacement is 1,150 cubic inches (18.9 liters). The KT/KTA-2300 and KTA- 3067-M engines, introduced in 1978 and 1980, respectively, complete the Cummins product line with high horsepower, reliability, dura- bility, and fuel economy. The 2300 series engines are a 12-cylinder, V configuration design with a dis- placement of 2,300 cubic inches (27.8 liters). The turbocharged en- gine has a rating of 800 bhp at 1,800 rpm, and the turbo/after- cooled version has a 940 bhp rat- ing at 1,800 rpm. The KTA-3067-M engine is rated at 1,250 bhp at 1,800 rpm for con- tinuous-duty applications. It is a 16-cylinder engine with 3,067-cu- bic-inch (50.3-liter) displacement. Recognized at their introduction as the most fuel-efficient marine diesel engines in their horsepower range, the K series engines have been improved continually to re- duce specific fuel consumption. Over the past three years, Cum- mins has reduced the specific fuel consumption for these models an additional 2-3 percent. DAIHATSU DIESEL Circle 53 on Reader Service Card With its extensive experience in the marine field, Daihatsu has de- veloped a new type of engine, the (continued on page 30) COMBUSTION ENGINEERING Circle 55 on Reader Service Card Combustion Engineering, Inc. is a leading supplier of steam gener- ating equipment for the marine industry, both military and com- mercial. CE has designed and manufactured main propulsion, auxiliary, and waste heat boilers for more than 40 years. In addi- tion to new product design and manufacture, CE offers after-mar- ket support including service and OEM parts. In recent years, CE has been in- volved in various marine research and development projects includ- ing improved boiler reliability, de- velopment of improved oil atomiz- ers, and development of low excess air burners. While marine steam generators have always been capable of burn- ing degraded fuels, many shipown- ers are looking for alternative fuels to reduce their operating costs. CE has been actively involved in the development of modern, coal-fired marine boilers, with four ships presently in service and two more scheduled for delivery in 1984. As another alternative, some shipowners are interested in burn- ing PETCOM (petroleum coke/oil slurry). Hereto, Combustion Engi- neering has been at the forefront of this new technology, performing atomization and combustion tests for marine boilers. RELIABLE POWER - RELIABLE SHIP CUMMINS ENGINE Circle 54 on Reader Service Card Cummins Engine Company manufactures six series of marine diesel engines rated from 170 to 1,250 bhp, continuous-duty opera- tion. Designed for heavy-duty workboat and fishboat applica- tions, both main propulsion and ship service auxiliary power, Cummins engines have developed a reputation over the years for fuel-efficient power. Since the mid-1970s, the Cum- mins K marine engines have de- veloped a reputation for fuel effi- ciency as well as reliability.
