Parameters DIESEL INDUSTRIAL PERFORMANCE

Reference: TM5737
DEFINITIONS:
IND A - CONTINUOUS HEAVY DUTY SERVICE WHERE THE ENGINE IS OPERATED
AT MAXIMUM POWER AND SPEED UP TO 100% OF THE TIME WITHOUT
INTERRUPTION OR LOAD CYCLING. TIME AT FULL LOAD CAN BE UP TO
100% OF THE DUTY CYCLE. TYPICAL SERVICE EXAMPLES ARE: PUMPING,
VENTILATION, CUSTOMER SPECS.

IND B - FOR SERVICE WHERE POWER AND/OR SPEED ARE CYCLIC. TIME AT
FULL LOAD IS NOT TO EXCEED 80% OF THE DUTY CYCLE. TYPICAL SERVICE
EXAMPLES ARE: IRRIGATION WHERE NORMAL PUMP DEMAND IS 85% OF ENGINE
POWER, OIL FIELD MECHANICAL PUMPING/DRILLING, STATIONARY PLANT
AIR COMPRESSORS.

IND C - INTERMITTENT SERVICE WHERE MAXIMUM POWER AND/OR SPEED ARE

CYCLIC. THE POWER AND SPEED CAPABILITY OF THE ENGINE CAN BE
UTILIZED FOR ONE UNINTERRUPTED HOUR FOLLOWED BY ONE HOUR OF
OPERATION AT OR BELOW IND A. TIME AT FULL LOAD IS NOT TO EXCEED
50% OF THE DUTY CYCLE. TYPICAL SERVICE EXAMPLES ARE: AGRICULTURAL
TRACTORS, HARVESTERS AND COMBINES, OFF HIGHWAY TRUCKS, FIRE PUMP
APPLICATION POWER, BLAST HOLE DRILLS, ROCK CRUSHERS AND WOOD
CHIPPERS WITH HIGH TORQUE RISE, AND OIL FIELD HOISTING.

IND D - FOR SERVICE WHERE MAXIMUM POWER IS REQUIRED FOR PERIODIC

OVERLOADS. THE MAXIMUM POWER AND SPEED CAPABILITY OF THE ENGINE
CAN BE UTILIZED FOR A MAXIMUM OF 30 UNINTERRUPTED MINUTES FOLLOWED
BY ONE HOUR AT IND C. TIME AT FULL LOAD IS NOT TO EXCEED 10% OF
THE DUTY CYCLE. TYPICAL SERVICE EXAMPLES ARE: OFFSHORE CRANES,
RUNWAY SNOW BLOWERS, WATER WELL DRILLS, PORTABLE AIR COMPRESSORS,
AND FIRE PUMP CERTIFICATION POWER.

IND E - FOR SERVICE WHERE MAXIMUM POWER IS REQUIRED FOR A SHORT

TIME FOR INITIAL STARTING OR SUDDEN OVERLOAD. FOR EMERGENCY
SERVICE WHERE STANDARD POWER IS UNAVAILABLE. THE MAXIMUM POWER
AND SPEED CAPABILITY OF THE ENGINE CAN BE UTILIZED FOR A MAXIMUM
OF 15 UNINTERRUPTED MINUTES FOLLOWED BY ONE HOUR AT IND C POWER
OR DURATION OF THE EMERGENCY. TIME AT FULL LOAD IS NOT TO
EXCEED 5% OF THE DUTY CYCLE. TYPICAL SERVICE EXAMPLES ARE:
STANDBY CENTRIFUGAL WATER PUMPS, OIL FIELD WELL SERVICING, CRASH
TRUCKS AND GAS TURBINE STARTERS.

35 DEGREES API HAVING A LOWER HEATING VALUE OF 42,780 KJ/KG
(18,390 BTU/LB) WHEN USED AT 29 DEG C (84.2 DEG F) WHERE THE
DENSITY IS 838.9 G/L (7.001 LB/US GAL).

THE CORRECTED PERFORMANCE VALUES SHOWN FOR CATERPILLAR ENGINES

WILL APPROXIMATE THE VALUES OBTAINED WHEN THE OBSERVED PERFORMANCE

& 1585, EEC 80/1269 AND DIN 70020 STANDARD REFERENCE CONDITIONS.

ENGINES ARE EQUIPPED WITH STANDARD ACCESSORIES; LUBE OIL, FUEL

PUMP AND JACKET WATER PUMP. THE POWER REQUIRED TO DRIVE
AUXILIARIES MUST BE DEDUCTED FROM THE GROSS OUTPUT TO ARRIVE AT
THE NET POWER AVAILABLE FOR THE EXTERNAL (FLYWHEEL) LOAD. TYPICAL
AUXILIARIES INCLUDE COOLING FANS, AIR COMPRESSORS AND CHARGING
ALTERNATORS.

RATINGS MUST BE REDUCED TO COMPENSATE FOR ALTITUDE AND OR AMBIENT

TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS ACCORDING TO THE APPLICABLE DATA SHOWN
ON THE PERFORMANCE DATA SET.

ALTITUDE:
ALTITUDE CAPABILITY DATA - THE RECOMMENDED REDUCED POWER VALUES
FOR SUSTAINED ENGINE OPERATION AT SPECIFIC ALTITUDE LEVELS AND
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE.

AMBIENT DATA - THE FLYWHEEL POWER AVAILABLE AT NORMAL AMBIENT

TEMPERATURE.

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE - TO BE MEASURED AT THE AIR CLEANER AIR INLET

DURING NORMAL ENGINE OPERATION.

STD TEMPERATURE - THE STD TEMPERATURE AT VARIOUS SPECIFIC

CONDITIONS AND TIME SPENT UNDER VARIOUS IDENTIFIABLE SPEED
CONDITIONS. A STEP-BY-STEP EXAMPLE DEPICTS HOW THE PROCESS
UTILIZES THIS INFORMATION IN TERMS OF LOAD FACTOR AND SPEED FACTOR
TO CALCULATE A RATING FACTOR. THE RATING FACTOR CHART ALLOWS THE
APPROPRIATE TIER LEVEL TO BE IDENTIFIED AS ONE MAJOR SELECTION
CRITERIA.

THE INDUSTRIAL ENGINE SELECTION GUIDE WORKSHEET LEADS THE ANALYST

STEP-BY-STEP THROUGH THE DISCOVERY PROCESS USING THE DUTY CYCLE AND
OTHER REQUESTED INFORMATION TO SELECT A FINAL TIER LEVEL AND ENGINE
CHOICE FOR THE APPLICATION IN QUESTION.

ANY FURTHER INQUIRIES CONCERNING THE UTILIZATION OF THIS PROCESS OR

TO PURSUE SITUATIONS THAT DO NOT FIT THIS SELECTION PROCESS SHOULD
BE DIRECTED TO THE FACTORY VIA YOUR NORMAL CONTACTS AND PROCEDURES.

LOAD FACTOR

LOAD FACTOR (THE AVERAGE DEMAND ON AN ENGINE) CAN BE DETERMINED

THROUGH ACTUAL FUEL CONSUMPTION. IT CAN BE DETERMINED BY DIVIDING
THE ACTUAL FUEL USED IN A WORK CYCLE BY THE AMOUNT OF FUEL THAT
COULD BE CONSUMED AT THE STATED ENGINE RATING DURING THE SAME TIME
PERIOD.

A MORE PRECISE DETERMINATION OF LOAD FACTOR IS THROUGH DETAILED

ANALYSIS OF THE DUTY CYCLE.

DIESEL INDUSTRIAL PERFORMANCE

DUTY CYCLE

A DUTY CYCLE ANALYSIS IS CRITICAL IN THE DETERMINATION OF THE

APPROPRIATE RATING TIER. THE DUTY CYCLE IS DEFINED AS THE TIME
SPENT AT VARIOUS POWERS AND SPEEDS. IT IS BEST TO DIVIDE THE DUTY
CYCLE INTO AS MANY ELEMENTS OF POWER AS POSSIBLE (RATED, %'S OF
RATED AND IDLE) AND AS MANY ELEMENTS OF SPEED AS POSSIBLE (RATED,
%'S OF RATED, HIGH IDLE, AND LOW IDLE). THESE VALUES ARE USED IN
THE CALCULATIONS OF LOAD FACTOR AND SPEED FACTOR. MULTIPLYING THE
LOAD FACTOR AND THE SPEED FACTOR TOGETHER RESULTS IN A RATING
FACTOR. THIS RATING FACTOR HELPS DETERMINE THE PROPER RATING TIER
FOR THIS DUTY CYCLE.

POWER AND SPEED PROFILE FOR DUTY CYCLE

-------------------------------------------------------------------
POWER (% RATED) * SPEED (% RATED) * TIME (% CYCLE)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
100 * 100 *
* *
* *
LOW IDLE = 10 * * LOW IDLE = (25-40)** *
HIGH IDLE = 10 * * HIGH IDLE (110)*** *
-------------------------------------------------------------------

* ALL IDLE (LOW & HIGH) POWER IS ASSUMED AS 10% OF RATED POWER
** LOW IDLE SPEED IS USUALLY 25 - 40% OF RATED SPEED
*** HIGH IDLE SPEED IS USUALLY 110% OF RATED SPEED

(EXAMPLE OF A SIMPLE DUTY CYCLE)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
POWER (% RATED) * SPEED (% RATED) * TIME (% CYCLE)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
100 * 100 * 50
80 * 85 * 10
50 * 75 * 20
LOW IDLE (10) * LOW IDLE (40) * 10
HIGH IDLE (10) * HIGH IDLE (110) * 10

* LOAD FACTOR CALCULATION
LOAD FACTOR = TOTAL OF % POWER X % TIME
1.00 X .50 = .50
.80 X .10 = .08
.50 X .20 = .10
.10 X .10 = .01
.10 X .10 = .01
TOTAL = .70 OR 70% LOAD FACTOR

* SPEED FACTOR CALCULATION

SPEED FACTOR = (TOTAL OF % SPEED X % TIME) SQUARED
1.00 X .50 = .500
.85 X .10 = .085
.75 X .20 = .150
.40 X .10 = .040

1.10 X .10 = .110

TOTAL =(.885) SQUARED = .78 OR 78% SPEED FACTOR

* RATING FACTOR CALCULATION

LOAD FACTOR X SPEED FACTOR = RATING FACTOR

CALCULATION: .70 X .78 = .546 OR .55

RESULT: A .55 RATING FACTOR EQUATES TO A (C) TIER RATING (SEE
