Abstract
This paper presents the practical aspects of development of a reduced scale laboratory and a set of monitoring tools for Internal Combustion Engines used in Thermal Power Plants. The reduced scale laboratory is based on the necessity of researchers to test new sensors and monitoring strategies that, otherwise, are seldom allowed to be installed in real plants without certification. In addition, the reduced scale laboratory allows the flexibility to insert failures on purpose, in order to evaluate the performance of new sensors/strategies in a safe and controlled environment. The paper also presents the development of a set of reduced cost sensors for monitoring in-cylinder pressure, crank angle, and the position of inlet and exhaust valves (without using ultrasound sensors, which may produce noisy readings on engines operating on gas-diesel fuel mode).
