Abstract: A catalyst unit includes: a ceramic catalyst body through which exhaust gas flows and having a substantially cuboid contour with a substantially rectangular inflow side and a substantially rectangular outflow side; a housing that at least partially encloses the catalyst body, and at least one bearing mat positioned in a gap formed between the catalyst body and the housing. Borders or edges of the catalyst body, which delimit the inflow side and the outflow side, each have dimensions of between 210 mm and 280 mm. The gap between the catalyst body and the housing, seen perpendicularly to the throughflow direction of the catalyst body, has a dimension determined according to the following relationship: s?p*5, s being the dimension of the gap in mm and p the dimensionless amount of the density of the or each bearing mat expressed in kg/m2.

Abstract: A method for operating an internal combustion engine, such as a marine diesel engine, that is operative for rotating an output shaft of the engine in a normal operating mode for generating a desired output power based on an operating fuel quantity introduced into the engine. The engine is operated in a calibration mode at a defined rotational speed of the output shaft, and a calibrating fuel quantity introduced into the engine to maintain the defined rotational speed in the calibration mode is determined. In the normal operating mode of the engine, the engine output power is determined based on the operating fuel quantity being introduced into the engine in the normal operating mode and the calibrating fuel quantity determined in the calibration mode.

Abstract: A screw machine, in particular screw compressor, includes a machine housing, screw rotors forming a rotor pair which is mounted in the machine housing, an oil supply system via which bearings and seals of the screw rotors can be supplied with oil for lubricating and/or cooling, wherein the oil supply system has an oil supply and oil feeds, wherein the oil supply system includes a pressure sensor, which detects a pressure in the oil discharge or oil return or a pressure difference between the pressure in the oil discharge or oil return and a pressure in the oil feeds, the oil supply system furthermore includes a control device, which open-loop or closed-loop controls the pressure in the oil feed or the pressure difference dependent on the measurement signal of the pressure sensor.
