Growing interest in the numerical simulation of total ship propulsion plant demands an easy to handle diesel engine simulation tool in a field which is as extensive as there are applications - every design process or research project has its own fit-for-purpose model. Moreover, engine simulation is a trade-off between model simplicity, execution time, and accuracy. In this paper attention is focused on the development of a diesel engine dynamics simulation model which combines fast-simulation time, sufficient accuracy, and limited engine data requirement. The cycle mean value modeling methodology is adopted in this paper and the derived results were validated against experimental data of prototype engine.
