What is a monoblock diesel engine?

A monobloc or en bloc engine is an internal-combustion piston engine where some of the major components (such as cylinder head, cylinder block, or crankcase) are formed, usually by casting, as a single integral unit, rather than being assembled later.

What is the advantages of a slow speed diesel engine?

One of the advantages of low-speed engines is their part load efficiency which varies very little over a range of outputs between 50% and 100% load. Whereas gas and steam turbines outputs tend to fall as the load decreases, that of a low-speed diesel engine is relatively flat over a similar load range.

What is marine diesel engine slow speed propulsion?

use in ship propulsion systems In ship: Diesel. The low-speed engine is characterized by rated speeds in the range of 80–120 revolutions per minute. In all cases it is a two-stroke engine supercharged by exhaust-gas turbochargers.
