Matthew, unfortunately there is no such thing as visa on arrival in Dalian. Anyway, you can enjoy 144 hour visa free transit through Dalian if your itinerary is eligible for this travel options. For example, if your itinerary has two different countries immediately before and after Dalian, you will be eligible for 144 hour visa free transit:
Tokyo - Dalian - Seoul
As you can see in the above mentioned itinerary, you have Japan before Dalian and South Korea after Dalian and if your itinerary is similar to this one, you can enjoy 144 hour visa free transit not only in the city of Dalian, but in the entire Liaoning province, roughly the size of Montana, but with roughly 44 million inhabitants.
Also, a good detail is that during your stay and travel within Liaoning province, you are allowed to use also Shenyang airport. In other words, you can arrive to Dalian from Japan and depart from Shenyang to Germany or any other foreign country that has direct or better to say non stop flights to/from Shenyang. An itinerary of this kind is perfectly fine:
Seoul (South Korea) - Dalian - Shenyang - Bangkok (Thailand)
Now when you know this, you will be able to construct your itinerary to fit within the legal frames of 144 hour visa free transit in Liaoning province.
