Article is devoted to the survey of the main stages of development of native dieselengineerlng. Analysis is given of engineering decisions, proposed by designers of Russia's factories, and providing the improvement of new engine. It is considered the development of native dieselengineerlng during three periods —before World War I, after Civil War and after World War II. Here is characterized the existing patterns of engines. The further problems of development are Indicated.

The history is considered of creation of native engines for road and air transport since 90th of XIX century. The role Central Institute of Air Machinebuilding and the department of oil engines is being shown. Here is given the description of air engines, developed by this department, with all the specifications. The ways of creation of tank and light marine engines is also shown. The main role is shown of the creation of this tyre of engines at the R & D laboratory, created in 1958, which recieved the status of the Central institute in the field' of engines of the ministry of transport machinebuilding.

Here are considered stages of development of marine dieselengineering since its crtation up to our days. Main directions of raising the efficiency of technical operation of marine diesel Installations (MDI) on ships come to raising the reliability of MDI, raising the manufacturing quality of MDI by means of forcing diesel working process. Main design, technical and operation features of marine diesel are being shown in MDI.

Here is proposed the quantitative and quantitative changes of level of emission depending on efficiency, and also estimation of the level of global and local air pollution. The strategy of restriction of exhaust emissions of engines in 90-s is being directed to raise the quality of atmosphere air at site. To achieve the limits of 1994 is impossible without external systems of reduction the toxicity. The perspective trends in development of low-emission engines are as follows: creation of working processes with poor mixture pressure charging; usage of alternative fuels including water-fuel emulsion and natural gas, creation of effective gas purification systems which can be used at transport.
