One of the primary sources contributing to vibrations in operational marine diesel engines is the combustion process of fuel injected into the cylinders. Hence, alterations in the injection process and the quality and type of fuel supplied to the engine can modulate the combustion parameters, consequently impacting noise and vibration levels. A literature review on this subject suggests that while some research has been conducted, mainly focusing on small engines in the automotive sector, there's been limited exploration in the marine domain. Despite the recent surge in manufacturers' interest in electrifying road transport vehicles, a similar trend has not been observed in sea transport besides short-range ferries, mainly due to the substantial range requirements of vessels. It is conceivable that the utilisation of liquid fuels in shipbuilding will persist. Presently, the predominant marine fuels are fossil-based, the reserves of which are progressively declining. However, the widespread adoption of alternative fuel additives like butanol holds promise in curbing fossil fuel consumption. One of the conditions to be met by a new commonly used fuel for marine engines is its good properties in limiting the parameters of accompanying processes like vibrations. The article delineates a comparative analysis of parameter values related to the vibrations of a marine engine fueled by different blends of butanol and diesel oil. Laboratory tests were conducted on a six-cylinder marine engine under load using a water brake, encompassing various engine loads to replicate real-world operating conditions accurately.
