1. A diesel-steam power plant comprising:
a first electric generator operatively coupled to a diesel engine, the diesel engine including;
an electric turbo compressor configured to compress an intake air of the diesel engine;
a diesel engine cooling system including a first heat exchanger configured to cool a cooling water of the diesel engine, and a second heat exchanger configured to cool an engine oil of the diesel engine; and
an exhaust gas system configured to convey exhaust gases of the diesel engine;
a second electric generator operatively coupled to a steam generator, the steam generator including:
an inlet manifold coupled to a downstream end of the exhaust gas system;
a nozzle coupled to a nozzle part of the inlet manifold, the nozzle configured to inject water into
a flow of the exhaust gases towards a divider so as to produce au exhaust steam mixture;
a swirl chamber partially defined by the divider, the swirl chamber configured to trap soot and slag entrained in the exhaust steam mixture.
