Influência da qualidade do combustível na manutenção e operação dos motores de combustão interna

Abstract

The quality of fuel oil is a very important feature for the operation and maintenance of internal combustion engines. The growing concern with costs, savings, emission of polluting gases in the atmosphere, has led us to the need for the engines to work with the best quality of fuel taking into account the cost associated with this, seeking the best cost-benefit. In this work, we will discuss the consequences of operating an engine running on poor fuel, heavy fuel oil with Cat Fines. In addition, it will be discussed with respect to the maintenance performed due to the poor quality of such fluid. We will discuss the purification systems we have on board in order to improve the quality of the fuel to be used from the main engine and auxiliary engines.
