The CRISTAL engine:ABC’s new medium speed diesel engine, developed to comply with IMO III.
Rudolf Diesel demonstrated his compression ignition engine at the World Fair in Paris in 1900. One year earlier, the first Diesel engine outside of Germany was built under license by the Carels Brothers in Ghent, Belgium. In 1912, this license was brought into the founding of the Anglo Belgian Corporation (ABC). Now ABC is 100 years older and celebrates its centennial jubilee. During this time, the engines have undergone tremendous progress, and are produced for applications all over the world. But, with the increasing focus on emissions and fuel consumption, ABC has taken the next challenge to design and build a completely new engine range with a power output of 650kW/cylinder at 750rpm which is developed to meet the IMO III emission level with engine internal measures. This engine is designed with state of the art components and a unique charging system which has to make it possible to reach the IMO III limits. Furthermore, the engine is developed to work inside and outside the ECA zone’s, as well on MDO, HFO and Dual Fuel. The base design of the engine is foreseen to work at different speeds on nominal torque so that the engine has its main applications in as well power generation as marine propulsion. This will make it a multifunctional engine which will set the standard in its category. This paper will describe this new developed engine characteristics and will highlight the new technology that is used to reach the targeted IMO III limit, engine internally. It will include a discussion on the different issues as there are, mechanical design, thermodynamics, emissions, fuel consumption, ... . We will also describe the current status of the development and show the available test results.
