Abstract

1. Technical Result Facilitating shutdown and start of diesel engines in hard conditions. 2. Essence A system and method for providing auxiliary power to a large diesel engine allowing shutdown of such large engine in all weather conditions. An auxiliary power unit made up of a secondary engine 45 coupled to an electrical generator 48 is provided. An automatic control system shuts down the primary engine 10 after a certain period of time. The auxiliary power unit provides electrical power for heating and air conditioning, and in cold weather, the auxiliary power unit maintains the primary engine coolant and lube-oil warm to facilitate engine restart. 3. Field of Application Diesel engines. 2 independent
