- Optimal brake specific fuel consumption trajectory for stand-alone variable speed Diesel Gen-SetPublication . Luís, Ricardo; Quadrado, Jose Carlos; Silva, José FernandoEnergy efficiency plays an important role to the CO2 emissions reduction, combating climate change and improving the competitiveness of the economy. The problem presented here is related to the use of stand-alone diesel gen-sets and its high specific fuel consumptions when operates at low loads. The variable speed gen-set concept is explained as an energy-saving solution to improve this system efficiency. This paper details how an optimum fuel consumption trajectory based on experimentally Diesel engine power map is obtained.
