While paper deals with traction engines, in many cases discussed same engine is offered for or is actually in service as marine propulsion prime mover; practical way of increasing power of 2-cycle or 4-cycle engine is to raise pressure ratio of turbocharger and combine it with aftercooling of delivered air; choice of cycle, cylinder diameter and combustion system is considered.
