During the past decade, large marine diesel engines have been the subject of increased rules and regulations aimed at reducing pollutant emissions, now critical in the design and operation of marine propulsion systems. This paper presents a phenomenological multi-zone combustion model designed to evaluate the efficiency of the various techniques used to reduce pollutant emissions. The model’s validation was achieved by comparing simulated NOx concentrations and smoke opacities with experimental measurements. Subsequently, the code was used to evaluate the effect of four of the main pollution control techniques not only on pollutant emissions but also on the global engine performance and efficiency.
