The article discusses one of the most popular methods of diagnosing selected damages of marine piston engines, which is the indication or measurement of pressure changes in the engine’s combustion chamber. Improving the quality of indicator diagrams may contribute to the increase in the efficiency of using the parameters indicated in the diagnostics of marine piston engines. Measurement errors during engine indication are primarily caused by measuring channels that connect the combustion chamber to the pressure sensor. One way to avoid these errors is to install the pressure sensor directly in the combustion chamber. It seems that it is possible to eliminate these errors. However, there is a risk that the pressure sensor will be damaged by the effect of high temperature on it during combustion of the fuel-air mixture in the engine’s combustion chamber. The article presents the results of tests that indicate that the measured temperatures in the place where the sensor was installed (in the combustion chamber) did not exceed the critical value specified by the pressure sensor manufacturer. The article also presents the results of cylinder pressure measurement not only in the combustion chamber but also in two other points - on the thread of the indicator cock and in the measuring channel between the indicator cock and the cylinder head. The tests were carried out in a wide range of engine load technically efficient and with simulated damage in the fuel injection system. The article presents a comparative analysis of the parameters read out of the indicator diagram for the three abovementioned pressure measurement locations. It was shown that the pressure measurements carried out directly in the combustion chamber are free from errors resulting from the influence of measuring channels and indicator cock.
Artykuł przedstawia wybrane problemy analizy przebiegów ciśnień cylindrowych w okrętowych silnikach tłokowych. Prawidłowo sporządzony i przeanalizowany wykres indykatorowy pomaga w formułowaniu wniosków diagnostycznych, za pomocą których można doprowadzić do optymalnej, pod kątem ekonomicznym i ekologicznym, regulacji silnika okrętowego. Pomiary ciśnień cylindrowych zaliczane są do trudnych, a także obarczonych wieloma błędami, dlatego też głównym tematem artykułu jest przedstawienie nowej koncepcji pomiarów przebiegów ciśnień cylindrowych.

The article presents selected problems regarding the correct analysis of cylinder pressures in ship piston engines. Correctly prepared and the analyzed indicator diagram helps in formulating appropriate diagnostic conclusions, with the help of which it is possible to achieve the optimal, in economic and environmental terms, regulation of the ship's engine. Cylinder pressure measurements are classified as difficult and also burdened with many errors. Therefore, the main topic of the article is to present a new concept for cylinder pressure measurements.
The paper presents results of measurements conducted during multi-stage studies on injectors of WOLA 72H6 engine. The research was conducted to determine the technical condition of the injectors during their operation. As a result of the injector modeling in the CAD environment, the resonant frequencies of the examined element were obtained. The next stage of the study was a stand-alone tests with the simultaneous recording of vibration parameters. The aim of records was to link the vibration parameters with the technical condition of the tested injectors. The study series was finished with measurements on a real object test stand.
