B1 Introduction

Selection of a suitable main engine to meet thepower demands of a given project involves propertuning in respect of load range and the influence ofoperating conditions which are likely to prevailthroughout the entire life of the ship. This chapterexplains the main principles in selecting a SulzerRTA low-speed diesel engine.

Every engine has a layout field within which thepower/speed ratio (= rating) can be selected. It islimited by envelopes defining the area where 100per cent firing pressure (i.e. nominal maximumpressure) is available for the selection of thecontract maximum continuous rating (CMCR).Contrary to the ‘layout field’, the ‘load range’ is theadmissible area of operation once the CMCR hasbeen determined.

In order to define the required contract maximumcontinuous rating, various parameters such aspropulsive power, propeller efficiency, operationalflexibility, power and speed margins, possibility ofa main-engine driven generator, and the ship’strading patterns need to be considered.

Selecting the most suitable engine is vital toachieving an efficient cost/benefit response to aspecific transport requirement.

B2 Layout field

The layout field shown in figure B1 is the area ofpower and engine speed within which the contractmaximum continuous rating of an engine can bepositioned individually to give the desiredcombination of propulsive power and rotationalspeed. Engines within this layout field will be tunedfor maximum firing pressure and best fuelefficiency. Experience over the last years hasshown that engines are ordered with CMCR pointsin the upper part of the layout field only. It wastherefore decided for the future to define the layoutfields for every new engine or engine range in

order to provide the most cost effective solution forthe projected application. Please note that thelayout fields for some RTA engines have beenreduced in the lower parts of the former layoutfields in order to allow the fulfilling of IMO-2000emission regulations. This is of no disadvantagesince engine ratings are normally selected nearthe R1–R3 line

Fig. B1 Layout field applicable to the RTA engines.The contracted maximum continuous rating (Rx)may be freely positioned within the layout field forthat engine.

The engine speed is given on the horizontal axisand the engine power on the vertical axis of thelayout field, both are expressed as apercentage (%) of the respective engine’s nominalR1 parameters.

Percentage values are being used so that thesame diagram can be applied to various enginemodels. The scales are logarithmic so thatexponential curves, such as propellercharacteristics (cubic power) and mean effectivepressure (mep) curves (first power), are straightlines.

The layout field serves to determine the specificfuel oil consumption, exhaust gas flow andtemperature, fuel injection parameters, turbo-charger and scavenge air cooler specifications fora given engine.

Calculations for specific fuel consumption,exhaust gas flows and temperature after turbineare explained in later chapters.

B2.1 Rating points R1, R2, R3 and R4

The rating points for the RTA engines R1, R2, R3and R4 are the corner points of the engine layoutfield.

The points R1 represent the nominal maximumcontinuous rating (MCR). It is the maximumpower/speed combination which is available for aparticular engine. 10 per cent overload thereof ispermissible for one hour during sea trials in thepresence of authorized representatives of theengine builder.

The points R2 define 100 per cent speed and 70per cent power.

The points R3 define 80 per cent speed and 80 percent power.

The connection R1–R3 is the nominal 100 per centline of constant mean effective pressure.

The points R4 define 80 per cent speed and 70 percent power.

The connection line R2–R4 is the line of 70 percent power between 80 and 100 per cent speed.

Points such as Rx are power/speed ratios for theselection of contracted maximum continuousratings required for individual applications. Ratingpoints Rx can be selected within the entire layoutfield for that particular engine.

B2.2 Influence of propeller revolutionson the power requirement

At constant ship speed and for a given propellertype, lower propeller revolutions combined with alarger propeller diameter increase the totalpropulsive efficiency. Less power is needed topropel the vessel at a given speed.

The relative change of required power in functionof the propeller revolutions can be approximatedby the following relation:

Px2�Px1 � �N2�N1��

Pxj = Propulsive power at propeller revolution NjNj = Propeller speed corresponding with propulsive

power Pxjα = 0.15 for tankers and general cargo ships up to

10 000 dwt.= 0.20 for tankers, bulkcarriers from 10 000 dwt to

30 000 dwt.= 0.25 for tankers, bulkcarriers larger than 30 000

dwt.= 0.17 for reefers and container ships up to

3000 TEU.= 0.22 for container ships larger than 3000 TEU.

This relation is used in the engine selectionprocedure to compare different engine alternativesand to select optimum propeller revolutions withinthe selected engine layout field.

Usually, the selected propeller revolution dependson the maximum permissible propeller diameter.The maximum propeller diameter is oftendetermined by operational requirements such asdesign draught and ballast draught limitations,class recommendations concerning propeller –hull clearance (pressure impulse induced by thepropeller on the hull).

The selection of main engine in combination withthe optimum propeller (efficiency) is an iterativeprocedure where also commercial considerations(engine and propeller prices) play a great role.

From the above follows that, when a power/speedcombination is known to be required, for examplepoint Rx1 as shown in figure B1, a CMCR line fora given ship’s speed, following the aboveapproximation, can be drawn through the pointRx1. This is a straight line with a slope α, shown asa dashed line, i.e. through Rx2 in figure B1. Anyother point on this line represents a newpower/speed combination, requiring a newadaptation of the propeller.

B3 Load range

The load range diagram shown in figure B2 definesthe power/speed limits for the operation of theengine. For simplicity and general application to allengine models, the scales for power and speed arelogarithmic and given in percentage values of theCMCR (Rx) point. In practice absolute figuresmight be used for a specific installation project.

B3.1 Propeller curves

In order to establish the proper location of propellercurves, it is necessary to know the ship’s speed topower response.

Propeller curve without sea margin is for a ship witha new and clean hull in calm water and weather,often referred to as ‘trial condition’.

The propeller curves can be determined by usingfull scale trial results of similar ships, algorithmsdeveloped by maritime research institutes ormodel tank results. Furthermore, it is necessary todefine the maximum reasonable diameter of thepropeller which can be fitted to the ship. With thisinformation at hand and by applying propellerseries such as the ‘Wageningen’, ‘SSPA’ (SwedishMaritime Research Association), ‘MAU’ (ModifiedAU), etc., the power/speed relationships can beestablished and characteristics developed.

The relation between absorbed power androtational speed for a fixed-pitch propeller can beapproximated by the following cubic relationship:

P2�P1 � �N2�N1�3

in which

Pi = propeller power

Ni = propeller speed

Propeller curve without sea margin is often calledthe light running curve. The nominal propellercharacteristic is a cubic curve through the CMCRpoint. (For additional information, refer to the‘Definition of light running margin’ B3.9).

B3.2 Sea trial power

The sea trial power must be specified. Figure B2shows the sea trial power to be the power requiredfor point ‘B’ on the propeller curve. Often andalternatively the power required for point ‘A’ on thepropeller curve is referred to as the sea trial power.

B3.3 Sea margin (SM)

The increase in required power to maintain a givenship’s speed in calm weather (point ‘A’ in figure B2)and under average service condition (point ‘D’), isdefined as the ‘sea margin’. This margin can varydepending on owner’s and charterer’sexpectations, routes, season and schedules of theship. The location of the reference point ‘A’ and themagnitude of the sea margin are determinedbetween the shipbuilder and the owner. They formpart of the newbuilding contract.

With the help of effective antifouling paints,drydocking intervals have been prolonged up to 4or 5 years. Therefore, it is still realistic to provide anaverage sea margin of about 15 per cent of the seatrial power, refer to figure B2 , unless as mentionedabove, the actual ship type and service routedictate otherwise.

B3.4 Light running margin (LR)

The sea trial performance (curve ‘a’) in figure B3should allow for a 3 to 7 per cent light running ofthe propeller when compared to the nominal pro-peller characteristic (the example in figure B3shows 5 per cent light running margin only). Thisis in order to provide a sufficient torque reservewhenever full power must be attained under un-favourable conditions. Normally, the propeller ishydrodynamically optimized for a point ‘B’. Thetrial speed found for ‘A’ is equal to the servicespeed at ‘D’ stipulated in the contract at 90 percent of CMCR.

The recommended light running margin originatesfrom past experience. It varies with specific shipdesigns, speeds, drydocking intervals, and trade

routes (for additional information, refer to the‘Definition of light running margin’ B3.9).

F10.3148

Fig. B3 Load range diagram for a specific engine showingthe corresponding power and speed margins

B3.5 Engine margin (EM) or operationalmargin (OM)

Most owners specify the contractual ship’s loadedservice speed at 85 to 90 per cent of the contractmaximum continuous rating. The remaining 10 to15 per cent power can then be utilized to catch upwith delays in schedule or for the timing ofdrydocking intervals. This margin is usuallydeducted from the CMCR. Therefore, the 100 percent power line is found by dividing the power atpoint ‘D’ by 0.85 to 0.90. The graphic approach tofind the level of CMCR is illustrated in figures B2,B3 and B4.

In the examples two current methods are shown.Figure B2 presents the method of fixing point ‘B’and CMCR at 100 per cent speed thus obtainingautomatically a light running margin B –D of3.5 per cent. Figures B3 and B4 show the method

of plotting the light running margin from point ‘B’ topoint ‘D’ or ‘D�’ (in our example 5 per cent) and thenalong the nominal propeller characteristic to obtainthe CMCR point. In the examples point ‘B’ waschosen to be at 90 per cent engine power.

B3.5.1 Continuous service rating(CSR=NOR=NCR)

Point ‘A’ represents power and speed of a shipoperating at contractual speed in calm seas with anew clean hull and propeller. On the other hand,the same ship at the same speed requires apower/speed combination according to point ‘D’,shown in figure B2, B3 and B4, under servicecondition with aged hull and average weather. ‘D’is then the CSR point.

B3.5.2 Contract maximum continuousrating (CMCR = Rx)

By dividing CSR by 0.90 (in our example), anoperational margin of 10 per cent is provided, seefigures B2 and B3. The found point Rx, alsodesignated as CMCR, can be selected freelywithin the layout field defined by the four cornerpoints R1, R2, R3 and R4 (see figure B1).

B3.5.3 Engine optimisation point

The RTA52U-B, RTA62U-B and RTA72U-Bengines are optimized for the selected CMCRpoint. The built-in variable injection timing (VIT)feature provides lowest fuel consumptions at partload. Other optimisation points than at CMCR arenot regarded to be of advantage for these engines.

B3.6 Load range limits

Once an engine is optimized at CMCR (Rx), theworking range of the engine is limited by thefollowing border lines, refer to figure B2:

Line 1 is a constant mep line through CMCR from100 per cent speed and power down to95 per cent power and speed.

Line 2 is the overload limit. It is a constant mepline reaching from 100 per cent power and93.8 per cent speed to 110 per cent powerand 103.2 per cent speed. The latter is thepoint of intersection between the nominalpropeller characteristic and 110 per cent power.

Line 3 is the 104 per cent speed limit. For speedderated engines (NCMCR ≤ 0.98�NMCR) thislimit can be extended to 106 per cent if tor-sional vibration limitations are not ex-ceeded.

Line 4 is the overspeed limit at 108 per centspeed. The overspeed range between104 and 108 per cent speed is only per-missible during sea trials if needed todemonstrate the ship’s speed at CMCRpower with a light running propeller in thepresence of authorized representatives ofthe engine builder.

Line 5 reaches from 95 per cent power andspeed to 45 per cent power and 70 percent speed. This represents a curve de-fined by the equation:

P2�P1 � �N2�N1�2.45

When approaching line 5 , the engine willincreasingly suffer from lack of scavengeair and its consequences. The areaformed by lines 1 , 3 and 5 representsthe range within which the engine shouldbe operated. More specifically, the areawhich is limited by the nominal propellercharacteristic, 100 per cent power and line3 is recommended for continuous opera-

tion. The area between the nominal pro-peller characteristic (figures B2, B3 andB4) and line 5 should be reserved for ac-celeration, shallow water and normal op-erational flexibility.

25.28.07.40 – Issue XII.98 – Rev. 0 Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland LtdB–6

Line 6 is defined by the equation:

P2�P1 � �N2�N1�2.45

through 100 per cent power and 93.8 percent speed.The area above line 1 is the overloadrange . It is only allowed to operate en-gines in that range for a maximum dura-tion of one hour during sea trials in thepresence of authorized representatives ofthe engine builder.

The area between lines 5 and 6 andconstant torque should only be used fortransient conditions, i.e. during fast accel-eration. This range is called ‘servicerange with operational time limit ’. As al-ready stated above, the area between thenominal propeller characteristic and line5 is not an ideal zone for continuous op-

eration of the engine.

B3.7 Load range with main-enginedriven generator

The load range diagram with main-engine drivengenerator, whether it is a shaft generator (S/G)mounted on the intermediate shaft or driventhrough a power take off gear (PTO), is very similarto that in figure B3. The difference is the additionalpower for the PTO, shown by curve ‘c’ in figure B4.This curve is not parallel to the propellercharacteristic without main-engine drivengenerator because of the varying magnitude of aconstant power in a logarithmic scale. In theexample of figure B4, the main-engine drivengenerator is assumed to absorb 5 per cent of thenominal engine power.

Of course, the CMCR point thus found must alsolie within the layout field of the engine as shown infigure B1.

B3.9 Definition of light running margin

The recommended ‘light running’ of a propellerunder new hull, loaded sea trial condition, is tocompensate for the expected future drop inrevolutions for constant-power operation. Therange is between 3–7% of CMCR engine speed.

Example: Under the following assumptions a lightrunning margin of 5–6% is required as follow:

• Drydocking intervals of ship: 5 years;• Time between main engine overhauls: 2 years

or more;• The full service speed must be attainable

under less than favourable conditions andwithout exceeding 100 per cent mep, withoutsurpassing the torque limit.

1. 1.5–2% influence of wind and weather withan adverse effect on the intake water flow ofthe propeller. Difference between Beaufort 2sea trial condition and Beaufort 4–5 averageservice condition. For vessels with a pro-nounced wind sensitivity, i.e. containershipswith 5–6 tiers of boxes on deck, this value willbe exceeded.

2. 1.5–2% increase of ship’s resistance andmean effective wake brought about by:• Rippling of hull (frame to frame);• Fouling of local, damaged areas, i.e. boot

top and bottom of the hull;• Formation of roughness under paint;• Influence on wake formation due to small

changes in trim and immersion of bulbousbow, particularly in the ballast condition.

3. 1% frictional losses due to increase of pro-peller blade roughness and consequent dropin efficiency, e.g. aluminium bronze propellers:• New: surface roughness = 12 microns;• Aged: rough surface but no fouling

= 40 microns.

4. 1% deterioration in engine efficiency suchas:• Fouling of scavenge air coolers;• Fouling of turbochargers;• Condition of piston rings;• Fuel injection system (condition and/or

timing);• Increase of back pressure due to fouling of

the exhaust gas boiler, etc.

Due to the high compression ratio, RTA series die-sel engines do not require any special measures,such as pre-heating the air at low temperatures,even when operating on heavy fuel oil at part loador idling. The only condition which must be fulfilledis that the water inlet temperature to the scavengeair cooler must not be lower than 25°C.

This means that:

• When combustion air is drawn directly from theengine room, no pre-heating of the combus-tion air is necessary.

• When the combustion air is ducted from out-side the engine room and the air temperaturebefore the turbocharger does not fall below5°C, no measures have to be taken.

The sea-water or the central fresh water coolingsystem permits the recovery of the engine’s dissi-pated heat and maintains the required scavengeair temperature after the scavenge air cooler by re-circulating part of the warm water to the scavengeair cooler.

The scavenge air cooling water inlet temperatureis to be maintained at a minimum of 25°C. Thismeans that the scavenge air cooling water willhave to be pre-heated in the case of low tempera-ture operation. The required heat at low power isobtained from the lubricating oil cooler and the en-gine cylinder cooling.

B4.2 Engine air inlet: arctic conditionsat operating temperatures below5°C

Under arctic conditions the ambient air tempera-tures can meet levels below –50°C. If the combus-tion air is drawn directly from outside, these en-gines may operate over a wide range of ambient airtemperatures between arctic condition and tropical(design) condition (45°C).

To avoid the need of a more expensive combustionair preheater, a system has been developed thatenables the engine to operate directly with cold airfrom outside.

If the air inlet temperature drops below 5°C, the airdensity increases to such an extent that the maxi-mum permissible cylinder pressure is exceeded.This can be compensated by blowing off a certainmass of the scavenge air through a blow-off deviceas shown in figure B5.

F10.1964

Fig. B5 Scavenge air system for arctic conditions

There are up to three blow-off valves fitted on thescavenge air receiver. In the event that the air inlettemperature to the scavenge air cooler is below5°C the first blow-off valve vents. For each actu-ated blow-off valve, a higher suction air tempera-ture is simulated by reducing the scavenge airpressure and thus the air density. The secondblow-off valve vents automatically as required tomaintain the desired relationship between scav-enge and firing pressures. Figure B6 shows the ef-fect of the blow-off valves to the air flow, the ex-haust gas temperature after turbine and the firingpressure.

C1.2 Engine data

C1.2.1 Reference conditions

If the engine is operated in the ambient conditionrange between reference conditions and design(tropical) conditions its performance is not af-fected.

The engine performance data BSFC, BSEF and tEaT in figures C2, C3 and C4 are based on refer-ence conditions as shown below. They are fol-lowing the ISO Standard 3046-1:

• Air temperature before blower : 25�C• Engine room ambient air temp. : 25�C• Coolant temp. before SAC : 25�C for SW• Coolant temp. before SAC : 29�C for FW• Barometric pressure : 1000 mbar

The reference value for the fuel lower calorificvalue (LCV) follows an international marine con-vention. The specified LCV of 42.7 MJ/kg differsfrom the ISO Standard.

C1.2.2 Design conditions

The design data for the ancillary systems arebased on standard design (tropical) conditionsas shown below. They are following the IMO-2000recommendations.• Air temperature before blower : 45�C• Engine ambient air temp. : 45�C• Coolant temp. before SAC : 32�C for SW• Coolant temp. before SAC : 36�C for FW• Barometric pressure : 1000 mbar

The reference value for the fuel lower calorificvalue (LCV) of 42.7 MJ/kg follows an internationalmarine convention.

C1.2.3 Ancillary system designparameters

The layout of the ancillary systems of the enginebases on the performance of its specified ratingpoint Rx (CMCR). The given design parametersmust be considered in the plant design to ensurea proper function of engine and ancillary systems.• Cylinder water outlet temp. : 85�C• Oil temperature before engine : 45�C• Exhaust gas back pressure

at rated power (Rx) : 300 mm WG

The engine power is independent from ambientconditions. The cylinder water outlet temperatureand the oil temperature before engine are system-internally controlled and have to remain at the spe-cified level.

C1.2.4 Estimation of engine performance data

To estimate the engine performance data BSFC,BSEF and tEaT for any engine rating Rx in the de-fined rating field, figures C2, C3 and C4 may beused.

The estimation of the performance data for any en-gine power will be done with the help of a computerprogram, the so-called winGTD , which is enclosedin this book in the form of a CD-ROM.

If needed we offer a computerized information ser-vice to analyse the engine’s heat balance and de-termine main system data for any rating pointwithin the engine layout field. For details of this service please refer to chaptersC1.5 and F.The installation of the winGTD and the hardwarespecification are explained in chapter F.

C1.2.5 Vibration aspects

As a leading designer and licensor we are con-cerned that satisfactory vibration levels are ob-tained with our engine installations. The assess-ment and reduction of vibration is subject forcontinuous research and we have developed ex-tensive computer software, analytical proceduresand measuring techniques to deal with the subject.For successful design the vibration behaviourneeds to be calculated over the whole operatingrange of the engine and propulsion system.

C1.2.5.1 Torsional vibration

This involves the whole shafting system compris-ing crankshaft, propulsion shafting, propeller, en-gine running gear, flexible couplings and powertake off. It is caused by gas and inertia forces aswell as by the irregularities of the propeller torque.

It is vitally important to limit torsional vibration inorder to avoid damage to the shafting. If the vibra-tion at a critical speed reaches dangerous stresslevels, the corresponding speed range has to bepassed through rapidly (barred-speed range).However, barred-speed ranges can be reduced,shifted, and in some cases avoided by installing aheavy flywheel at the driving end and/or a tuningwheel at the free end or a torsional vibrationdamper at the free end of the crankshaft.

Torsional vibration dampers of various designs areavailable to reduce energy on different levels ofvibration.Lower energy vibrations are absorbed by viscousdampers.Higher energy vibrations are absorbed by a springloaded damper type. In this case the damper issupplied with oil from the engine’s lubricating sys-tem and the heat dissipated can range from 20 kWto 60 kW depending on the size of the damper.

C1.2.5.2 Axial vibration

The shafting system is also able to vibrate in theaxial direction. This vibration is due to the axial ex-citations coming from the engine and the propeller.

In order to limit the influence of these excitationsand limit the level of vibration, an integrated axialdetuner/damper is fitted to the crankshaft of all Sul-zer RTA engines. In rare cases (e.g. five-cylinderengines and very stiff intermediate and propellershafts) the influence of axial vibration may be ap-parent at the engine top. This can be reduced bylongitudinal friction stays attached to the ship’sstructure.

C1.2.5.3 Hull vibration

The hull and accommodation are susceptible tovibration caused by the propeller, machinery andsea conditions. Controlling hull vibration isachieved by a number of different means and mayrequire fitting longitudinal and lateral stays to themain engine and installing second order balancerson each end of the main engine. These balancersare available for our engines and involve counter-weights rotating at twice the engine speed. Thereare also electrically driven secondary balancersavailable for mounting at the aft end of the ship andwhich are tuned to the engine’s operating speedand controlled in accordance with it.

Eliminating hull vibration requires co-operation be-tween the propeller manufacturer, naval architect,shipyard and engine builder.

C1.2.5.4 Estimation of engine vibrationdata

The RTA52U-B engine has been designed to elim-inate free forces and minimize unbalanced exter-nal couples of first and second order.

However, different numbers of cylinders, ratingpoint and engine tuning affect the magnitude ofthese couples and if unchecked, result in vibration.

Figure C5 is a representation of the engine show-ing the free couples of mass forces and the torquevariation about the centre lines of the engine andcrankshaft.M1V is the first order couple having a vertical com-ponent.M1H is the first order couple having a horizontalcomponent.M2V is the second order couple having a verticalcomponent.∆M is the reaction to variations in the nominaltorque.Reducing the first order couples is achieved bycounterweights installed at both ends of the crank-shaft.The second order couple is larger on 5 and 6 cylin-der engines than it is on engines of 7 and 8 cylin-ders, however it is reduced to acceptable levels byfitting second order balancers.

It is important to establish at the design stage whatthe ship’s vibration form is likely to be. Table C1 willassist in assessing the effects of fitting the chosenRTA52U-B.

As mentioned earlier the results of vibration analy-sis may lead to fitting engine stays. The lateralcomponents of the forces acting on the cross-heads may induce lateral rocking, depending onthe number of cylinders and the firing sequence.

These forces may be transmitted to the engineseating structure, and induce local vibrations.These vibrations are difficult to predict and stronglydepend on the engine foundation, frame stiffnessand pipe connections. For this reason, we recom-mend consideration of lateral stays (please refer totable C3 ‘Countermeasures for dynamic effects’),either of the hydraulic or friction type early in thedesign stage.

Figure C6 illustrates typical attachment points forlateral stays. Friction stays are installed on the en-gine exhaust side only.

C1.4 Auxiliary power generation

C1.4.1 General information

C1.4.1.1 Introduction

This chapter covers a number of auxiliary powerarrangements for consideration. However, if yourrequirements are not fulfilled, please contact ourrepresentative or consult Wärtsilä NSDSwitzerland Ltd, Winterthur, directly. Our aim is toprovide flexibility in power management, reduceoverall fuel consumption and maintain uni-fueloperation.

The sea load demand for refrigerationcompressors, engine and deck ancillaries,machinery space auxiliaries and hotel load can bemet using a main-engine driven generator, by asteam-turbine driven generator utilising wasteheat from the engine exhaust gas, or simply byauxiliary generator sets.

Although the waste heat option is less attractivenow, due to improved combustion and lowerexhaust gas temperatures, it is still a practicalproposition for engines employed on longvoyages. The electrical power required whenloading and discharging cannot be met with amain-engine driven generator or with the wasteheat recovery system, and for vessels employedon comparatively short voyages the waste heatsystem is not viable. Stand-by diesel generatorsets (Wärtsilä or Sulzer GenSet) , burning heavyfuel oil or marine diesel oil, available for use in port,when manouevring or at anchor, provide theflexibility required when the main engine powercannot be utilised.Refer to chapter C1.4.4 of this ESPM for detailsof the Sulzer S20U GenSet.

C1.4.1.2 System description and layout

Although initial installation costs for a heatrecovery plant are relatively high, these are offsetby fuel savings if maximum use is made of thesteam output, i.e., electrical power, space heating,tank heating, fuel and water heating, anddomestics.

C1.4.2 Waste heat recovery

Before any decisions can be made about installinga waste heat recovery system the steam andelectrical power available from the exhaust gas isto be established.

C1.4.3 Power take off (PTO)

Main-engine driven generators are an attractiveoption when consideration is given to simplicity ofoperation and low maintenance costs. Thegenerator is driven through a free-end or tunnelPTO gear with frequency control provided bythyristor inverters or constant-speed gears.

C1.4.3.1 Arrangements of PTO

Figures C18 and C19 illustrate the PTO options. Ifyour particular requirements are not covered,please do not hesitate to contact ourrepresentative or Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd,Winterthur, directly.

C1.4.3.3 Free-end PTO

The free-end gear requires no additionalfoundation. The gear box is flange coupled directlyto the free end of the engine crankshaft and addsapproximately 1 meter to the overall length whilstmaking allowances for ease of access.

C1.4.3.4 PTO Tunnel

The tunnel gear is similar to the free-end gear butmounted at the intermediate propeller shaft.Positioning the PTO gear in that area of the shipdepends upon the amount of space available.Dimensions and masses as well as arrangementdrawings are available on request.

C1.4.3.5 Constant-speed gear

The constant-speed gear unit, available for free-end and tunnel gear, is coupled to the main enginePTO to provide controlled constant speed of thegenerator drive when the main engine speed is va-ried over a range of 70–104 per cent. It uses the in-herent variable-ratio possibilities of epicyclicgears, combining the epicyclic gear itself with hy-draulic variable transmission. The generator sup-ply frequency is maintained within extremely nar-row limits by the fast response of theconstant-speed gear to input speed variations. Italso allows for continuous parallel operation be-tween PTO generator and auxiliary diesel generator(s).

The cooling medium for the cylinder water cooleris either sea-water for the conventional system orfresh water for the central cooling system. In caseof the latter one, the cylinder water cooler 012 infigure C26 may be omitted as shown in figure C25.

The cylinder cooling water outlet from the engineis thermostatically controlled by an automaticvalve (011). A static pressure head is provided,thermal expansion allowed and water losses madeup by the expansion tank (013), to be installed ashigh as possible above the pump suction (002) toprevent ingress of air into the cooling systemthrough the pump gland. The freshwater generator(010) is not to require more than 40 per cent of theheat dissipated from the cylinder cooling water atCMCR and is to be used at engine loads above 50per cent only. In the event that more heat is re-quired (up to 85%), an additional temperature con-trol system is to be installed ensuring adequatecontrol of the cylinder cooling water outlet tem-perature (information can be obtained fromWNSD).

Correct treatment of the fresh water is essential forsafe engine operation. Only totally demineralizedwater or condensate must be used as water and itmust be treated with a suitable corrosion inhibitorto prevent corrosive attack, sludge formation andscale deposits in the system. No internally galvan-ized steel pipes should be used in connection withtreated fresh water, since most corrosion inhibitorshave a nitrite base. Nitrites attack the zinc lining ofgalvanized piping and create sludge.

C1.5.2.1.4 Pre-heating system

To prevent corrosive liner wear when not in serviceduring short stays in port, it is important that themain engine is kept warm. Warming-through canbe provided by a dedicated heater (004) as shownin figure C26 ‘Cylinder cooling water system’,using boiler raised steam, hot water from the dieselauxiliaries, or by direct circulation from the dieselauxiliaries. If the requirement is for a separate pre-heating pump (003), a small unit of five per cent ofthe main pump capacity (002) and an additional

non-return valve between the CCW pumps and theheater (004) are to be installed. In addition, thepumps are to be electrically interlocked to preventboth pumps running at the same time. The oper-ation of the heater is controlled by a separate tem-perature sensor installed at the engine outlet andthe flow rate is set by a throttling disc. If the dieselauxiliaries are to be used to provide warming-through directly, it is important at the design stageto ensure that there is sufficient heat available andthat cross-connecting pipework and isolating non-return valves are included.

Before starting and operating the engine, a tem-perature of 60°C at the cylinder cooling wateroutlet of the main engine is recommended. If theengine is to be started below the recommendedtemperature, engine power is not to exceed 80 percent of CMCR until the water temperature has re-ached 60°C.

F10.3881

Fig. C27 Engine pre-heating power

To estimate the heater power capacity required toachieve 60°C, the heating-up time and the engineambient temperature are the most important para-meters. They are plotted on the graph shown in fig-ure C27 to arrive at the required capacity per cyl-inder; this figure is multiplied by the number ofcylinders to give the total heater capacity required.

C1.5.2.2 Lubricating oil systems

C1.5.2.2.1 Lubricating oil systems forengine

Lubrication of the main bearings, thrust bearings,bottom-end bearings, camshaft bearings, cross-head bearings, together with the piston cooling, iscarried out by the main lubricating oil system, seefigure C28 ‘Main lubricating oil system’. The elev-ated lub. oil pressure for the crosshead bearings isobtained using separate pumps. The cylinder linerlubrication is carried out by a separate system asshown in figure C29 ‘Cylinder lubricating oil sys-tem’. The system oil and cylinder lubricating oilconsumptions are indicated in table A1.

The products listed in table C15 ‘Lubricating oils’were selected in co-operation with the oil suppliersand are considered the appropriate lubricants intheir respective product lines for the applicationindicated. Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd does notaccept any liability for the quality of the supplied lu-bricating oil or its performance in actual service.

In addition to the oils shown in the mentioned list,there are other brands which might be suitable forthe use in Sulzer diesel engines. Information con-cerning such brands may be obtained on requestfrom Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd, Winterthur.

For marine crosshead engines with oil-cooled pis-tons, an additive-type crankcase oil of the SAE 30viscosity grade must be used as system oil. It musthave a minimum BN of 5, detergent properties andmeet load carrying performance of the FZG gearmachine method IP 334/90, load stage pass 9.Good thermal stability, antifoam properties andgood demulsifying performance are further re-quirements.

The cylinders in the crosshead diesel engines arelubricated by a separate system working on theonce-through principle, i.e. fresh lubricating oil isdirectly fed into the cylinders to provide lubricationfor the liners, pistons and piston rings.

For normal operating conditions, a high-alkalinemarine cylinder oil of the SAE 50 viscosity gradewith a minimum kinematic viscosity of 18.5 cSt at100°C is recommended. The alkalinity of the oil isindicated by its Base Number (BN).

Note:The ‘Base Number’ or ‘BN’ was formerly known as‘Total Base Number’ or ‘TBN’. Only the name haschanged, values remain identical.

C1.5.2.2.2 Lubricating oil systems forturbochargers

The ABB VTR turbochargers with antifriction bear-ings have a fully integrated lub. oil system which isindependent of the engine’s lub. oil system.The Mitsubishi MET and MAN NA turbochargersfeature journal bearings which can be lubricatedfrom the engine’s lub. oil system. However, to ex-tend the life time of these journal bearings, a separ-ate lub. oil system which only serves the turbo-chargers can be supplied. For more informationplease contact WNSD.

C1.5.2.2.3 Lubricating oil maintenance andtreatment

Treatment of the system oil by self-cleaning separ-ators is absolutely necessary to maintain the oil ingood condition over a long working period. In order to remove any water from the lubricatingoil the separator has to operate as a purifier of thefull discharge type. Pre-heating of the oil between90–95°C will increase the efficiency of the separ-ation process.

The minimum throughput of the lubricating oil sep-arator is determined by the contracted maximumpower (CMCR) of the engine as follows:

V.

separator(CMCR) � 0.14 dm3�kWh

Example:Estimation of minimum throughput of the lubricating oil separator for 7RTA52U-B with CMCR = 11 200 kW

V.

separator(CMCR) � 0.14 � 11 200 � 1568 dm3�h

The separator throughput related to its nominal ca-pacity has to conform to the recommendations ofthe separator manufacturer. This separator shouldnever be used for fuel oil separation, to preventcross-contamination of the lubricating oil.

C1.5.2.3 Fuel oil systems

C1.5.2.3.1 Fuel oil requirements

In Table C16 ‘Fuel oil requirements’ some heavyfuel oil specifications are given. The values in thecolumn ‘Bunker limit’ (RMH55) indicate the mini-mum quality of heavy fuel as bunkered. Good op-erating results have been achieved with commer-cially available fuels within these limits. Thecolumn ‘Recommended fuel quality’ is an exampleof a good quality fuel of the type commonly used inSulzer diesel engines. The use of this variety of fuelcan be expected to have a positive influence onoverhaul periods, by improving combustion, wearand exhaust gas composition.The fuel oil as bunkered must be processed beforeit enters the engine. The difference between therecommended fuel quality of bunker and at engineinlet is an approximate indication of the improve-ment that must be achieved by fuel oil treatment.If catalyst fines are present they must be removed.The fuel oil should contain no foreign substancesor chemical waste which are hazardous to thesafety of the ship, harmful to the environment ordetrimental to the performance of machinery.

The CCAI (Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index,ISO 8217: 1996) is a function of viscosity and den-sity, and is an indication of the ignition quality formedium and high-speed diesel engines. In low-speed engines ignition delay as given by the CCAIis of less importance. There is no rigidly applicablelimit for this quantity, but good results have beenobtained with commercially available fuels whichhave CCAI values up to 870.

The maximum admissible viscosity of the fuel thatcan be used in an installation depends on the heat-ing and fuel preparation facilities available. As aguidance, the necessary pre-heating temperaturefor a given nominal viscosity can be taken from theviscosity/temperature chart in figure C30. The recommended viscosity range of fuel enteringthe engine is: 13–17 mm2/s (cSt) .

C1.5.2.3.2 Fuel oil treatment

Figure C31 ‘Heavy fuel oil treatment layout’ is aschematic diagram of a fuel oil treatment plant andthe following points should be considered beforedesigning a system.

Gravitational settling of water and sediment inmodern fuel oils is an extremely slow process dueto the small density difference between the oil andthe sediment. To achieve the best settling results,the surface area of the settling tank should be aslarge as possible, because the settling process isa function of the fuel surface area of the tank, theviscosity and the density difference. The purposeof the settling tank is to separate the sludge andwater contained in the fuel oil, to act as a buffertank and to provide a suitable constant oil tempera-ture of 60°C to 70°C.

It is advisable to use separators without gravitydisc to meet the requirements for heavy fuel separ-ation up to 730 mm2/s at 50°C and make the con-tinuous and unattended onboard operation easier.As it is usual to install a stand-by separator as aback-up, it is of advantage to use it to improve theseparation. For the arrangement of separators,refer to the manufacturer’s instructions. The effec-tive separator throughput is to be in accordancewith the maximum consumption of the dieselengine plus a margin of 15–20 per cent , whichensures that separated fuel oil flows back from thedaily tank to the settling tank. The separators areto be in continuous operation from port to port.

Figure C31 ‘Heavy fuel oil treatment layout’ showsindividual positive displacement type pumps but itis also acceptable to have these pumps integratedin the separator. It is important that the pumps op-erate at constant capacity in order to achieve equalresults over the whole operating time.The separation temperature is to be controlledwithin ± 2°C by a preheater .

To achieve a good separating effect, the through-put and the temperature of the fuel must be ad-justed in relation to the viscosity. With high-viscos-ity fuels, the separating temperature must beincreased whereas the throughput must be de-creased in relation to the nominal capacity of theseparator. For recommended operating data, referalso to the separator instruction manual.

C1.5.2.3.3 Pressurized fuel oil system

The system shown in figure C32 is recommendedfor use with engines burning heavy fuel oils. Fueloil from the heated daily tank (002, figure C31)passes through the change-over valve (002), filter(003) and is transferred to the mixing unit (006) bythe low-pressure feed pump (004). The high-pres-sure booster pump (007) transfers the fuel throughthe heater (008), viscosimeter and the filter (009)into the engine manifold to supply the injectionpumps (011).

Circulation is maintained via pipework back to themixing tank which equalizes the fuel oil tempera-ture between the hot oil returning from the engineand the cooler oil from the daily tank. The pressureregulating valve (005) controls the delivery of thelow-pressure pump and ensures that the dis-charge pressure is 1 bar above evaporation pres-sure to prevent entrained water from flashing offinto steam.

Table C17 outlines the basic requirements for asystem similar to figure C33 ‘Starting and controlair system’ for maximum engine rating.

Figure C34 enables optimization of compressorsand air receivers for the contract maximum con-tinuous rating (CMCR). The figure on the rightshows the factor for multiplying compressor and airreceiver capacities, e.g. for a 7RTA52U-B enginewith CMCR of 85 per cent power at approx. 90 percent speed the Rx point has a factor of 1.09. Referring to table C17 the requirement is:

For 25 bar design

– 2 x 2.1 x 1.09 m3 for air receivers– 2 x 53 x 1.09 Nm3/h for air compressors

For 30 bar design

– 2 x 1.8 x 1.09 m3 for air receivers– 2 x 55 x 1.09 Nm3/h for air compressors

Note: The above capacities are for the engineonly. If additional consumers for boardpurposes must be supplied with air, thenadditional capacity must be provided.

C1.5.6 Engine air supply / Engine room ventilation

The air supply to the engine room can be calcu-lated according to ISO 8861 ’Shipbuilding engineroom ventilation in diesel engined ships’.By experience, the amount of air supplied to theengine room by ventilators should be approxi-mately twice the amount of air consumed by themain engine at CMCR power in order to keep theengine room temperature within reasonable le-vels. If auxiliary engines are in the same room, theirair consumption must be added to the air con-sumption of the main engine. A portion of the airmust be ducted to the vicinity of the turbochargerair inlet filters.

Air filtration:

In the event that the air supply to the machineryspaces has a high dust content in excess of0.5 mg/m3 which can be the case on ships tradingin coastal waters, desert areas or transporting dustcreating cargoes, there is a greater risk of in-creased wear to the piston rings and cylinderliners.

The normal air filters fitted to the turbochargers areintended mainly as silencers and not to protect the

engine against dust. The necessity for the installa-tion of a dust filter and the choice of filter type de-pends mainly on the concentration and composi-tion of the dust in the suction air.

Where the suction air is expected to have a dustcontent of 0.5 mg/m3 or more, the engine must beprotected by filtering this air before entering the en-gine, e.g. also on coastal vessels or vessels fre-quenting ports having high atmospheric dust orsand content.

Marine installations have seldom had special airfilters installed until now. Stationary plants on theother hand, very often have air filters fitted to pro-tect the diesel engine. The installation of a filtrationunit for the air supply to the diesel engines and gen-eral machinery spaces on vessels regularly trans-porting dust-creating cargoes such as iron ore andbauxite, is highly recommended.

Table C20 and figure C39 ‘Air filter size’ show howthe various types of filter are to be applied.

C2.2 Engine data

C2.2.1 Reference conditions

If the engine is operated in the ambient conditionrange between reference conditions and design(tropical) conditions its performance is not af-fected.

The engine performance data BSFC, BSEF and tEaT in figures C44, C45 and C46 are based onreference conditions as shown below. They arefollowing the ISO Standard 3046-1:

• Air temperature before blower : 25�C• Engine room ambient air temp. : 25�C• Coolant temp. before SAC : 25�C for SW• Coolant temp. before SAC : 29�C for FW• Barometric pressure : 1000 mbar

The reference value for the fuel lower calorificvalue (LCV) follows an international marine con-vention. The specified LCV of 42.7 MJ/kg differsfrom the ISO Standard.

C2.2.2 Design conditions

The design data for the ancillary systems arebased on standard design (tropical) conditionsas shown below. They are following the IMO-2000recommendations.• Air temperature before blower : 45�C• Engine ambient air temp. : 45�C• Coolant temp. before SAC : 32�C for SW• Coolant temp. before SAC : 36�C for FW• Barometric pressure : 1000 mbar

The reference value for the fuel lower calorificvalue (LCV) of 42.7 MJ/kg follows an internationalmarine convention.

C2.2.3 Ancillary system designparameters

The layout of the ancillary systems of the enginebases on the performance of its specified ratingpoint Rx (CMCR). The given design parametersmust be considered in the plant design to ensurea proper function of engine and ancillary systems.• Cylinder water outlet temp. : 85�C• Oil temperature before engine : 45�C• Exhaust gas back pressure

at rated power (Rx) : 300 mm WG

The engine power is independent from ambientconditions. The cylinder water outlet temperatureand the oil temperature before engine are system-internally controlled and have to remain at the spe-cified level.

C2.2.4 Estimation of engine performance data

To estimate the engine performance data BSFC,BSEF and tEaT for any engine rating Rx in the de-fined rating field, figures C44, C45 and C46 maybe used.

The estimation of the performance data for any en-gine power will be done with the help of a computerprogram, the so-called winGTD , which is enclosedin this book in the form of a CD-ROM.

If needed we offer a computerized information ser-vice to analyse the engine’s heat balance and de-termine main system data for any rating pointwithin the engine layout field. For details of this service please refer to chaptersC2.5 and F.The installation of the winGTD and the hardwarespecification are explained in chapter F.

C2.2.5 Vibration aspects

As a leading designer and licensor we are con-cerned that satisfactory vibration levels are ob-tained with our engine installations. The assess-ment and reduction of vibration is subject forcontinuous research and we have developed ex-tensive computer software, analytical proceduresand measuring techniques to deal with the subject.For successful design the vibration behaviourneeds to be calculated over the whole operatingrange of the engine and propulsion system.

C2.2.5.1 Torsional vibration

This involves the whole shafting system compris-ing crankshaft, propulsion shafting, propeller, en-gine running gear, flexible couplings and powertake off. It is caused by gas and inertia forces aswell as by the irregularities of the propeller torque.

It is vitally important to limit torsional vibration inorder to avoid damage to the shafting. If the vibra-tion at a critical speed reaches dangerous stresslevels, the corresponding speed range has to bepassed through rapidly (barred-speed range).However, barred-speed ranges can be reduced,shifted, and in some cases avoided by installing aheavy flywheel at the driving end and/or a tuningwheel at the free end or a torsional vibrationdamper at the free end of the crankshaft.

Torsional vibration dampers of various designs areavailable to reduce energy on different levels ofvibration.Lower energy vibrations are absorbed by viscousdampers.Higher energy vibrations are absorbed by a springloaded damper type. In this case the damper issupplied with oil from the engine’s lubricating sys-tem and the heat dissipated can range from 20 kWto 60 kW depending on the size of the damper.

C2.2.5.2 Axial vibration

The shafting system is also able to vibrate in theaxial direction. This vibration is due to the axial ex-citations coming from the engine and the propeller.

In order to limit the influence of these excitations,and limit the level of vibration, an integrated axialdetuner/damper is fitted to the crankshaft of all Sul-zer RTA engines. In rare cases (e.g. five-cylinderengines and very stiff intermediate and propellershafts) the influence of axial vibration may be ap-parent at the engine top. This can be reduced bylongitudinal friction stays attached to the ship’sstructure.

C2.2.5.3 Hull vibration

The hull and accommodation are susceptible tovibration caused by the propeller, machinery andsea conditions. Controlling hull vibration isachieved by a number of different means and mayrequire fitting longitudinal and lateral stays to themain engine and installing second order balancerson each end of the main engine. These balancersare available for our engines and involve counter-weights rotating at twice the engine speed. Thereare also electrically driven secondary balancersavailable for mounting at the aft end of the ship andwhich are tuned to the engine’s operating speedand controlled in accordance with it.

Eliminating hull vibration requires co-operation be-tween the propeller manufacturer, naval architect,shipyard and engine builder.

C2.2.5.4 Estimation of engine vibrationdata

The RTA62U-B engine has been designed to elim-inate free forces and minimize unbalanced exter-nal couples of first and second order.

However, different numbers of cylinders, ratingpoint and engine tuning affect the magnitude ofthese couples and if unchecked, result in vibration.

Figure C47 is a representation of the engine show-ing the free couples of mass forces and the torquevariation about the centre lines of the engine andcrankshaft.M1V is the first order couple having a vertical com-ponent.M1H is the first order couple having a horizontalcomponent.M2V is the second order couple having a verticalcomponent.∆M is the reaction to variations in the nominaltorque.Reducing the first order couples is achieved bycounterweights installed at both ends of the crank-shaft.The second order couple is larger on 5 and 6 cylin-der engines than it is on engines of 7 and 8 cylin-ders, however it is reduced to acceptable levels byfitting second order balancers.

It is important to establish at the design stage whatthe ship’s vibration form is likely to be. Table C21will assist in assessing the effects of fitting thechosen RTA62U-B.

As mentioned earlier the results of vibration analy-sis may lead to fitting engine stays. The lateralcomponents of the forces acting on the cross-heads may induce lateral rocking, depending onthe number of cylinders and the firing sequence.

These forces may be transmitted to the engineseating structure, and induce local vibrations.These vibrations are difficult to predict and stronglydepend on the engine foundation, frame stiffnessand pipe connections. For this reason, we recom-mend consideration of lateral stays (please refer totable C23 ‘Countermeasures for dynamic effects’),either of the hydraulic or friction type early in thedesign stage.

Figure C48 illustrates typical attachment points forlateral stays. Friction stays are installed on the en-gine exhaust side only.

C2.4 Auxiliary power generation

C2.4.1 General information

C2.4.1.1 Introduction

This chapter covers a number of auxiliary powerarrangements for consideration. However, if yourrequirements are not fulfilled, please contact ourrepresentative or consult Wärtsilä NSDSwitzerland Ltd, Winterthur, directly. Our aim is toprovide flexibility in power management, reduceoverall fuel consumption and maintain uni-fueloperation.

The sea load demand for refrigerationcompressors, engine and deck ancillaries,machinery space auxiliaries and hotel load can bemet using a main-engine driven generator, by asteam-turbine driven generator utilising wasteheat from the engine exhaust gas, or simply byauxiliary generator sets.

Although the waste heat option is less attractivenow, due to improved combustion and lowerexhaust gas temperatures, it is still a practicalproposition for engines employed on longvoyages. The electrical power required whenloading and discharging cannot be met with amain-engine driven generator or with the wasteheat recovery system, and for vessels employedon comparatively short voyages the waste heatsystem is not viable. Stand-by diesel generatorsets (Wärtsilä or Sulzer GenSet) , burning heavyfuel oil or marine diesel oil, available for use in port,when manouevring or at anchor, provide theflexibility required when the main engine powercannot be utilised.Refer to chapter C2.4.4 of this ESPM for detailsof the Sulzer S20U GenSet.

C2.4.1.2 System description and layout

Although initial installation costs for a heatrecovery plant are relatively high, these are offsetby fuel savings if maximum use is made of thesteam output, i.e., electrical power, space heating,tank heating, fuel and water heating, anddomestics.

C2.4.2 Waste heat recovery

Before any decisions can be made about installinga waste heat recovery system the steam andelectrical power available from the exhaust gas isto be established.

C2.4.3 Power take off (PTO)

Main-engine driven generators are an attractiveoption when consideration is given to simplicity ofoperation and low maintenance costs. Thegenerator is driven through a free-end or tunnelPTO gear with frequency control provided bythyristor inverters or constant-speed gears.

C2.4.3.1 Arrangements of PTO

Figures C60 and C61 illustrate the PTO options. Ifyour particular requirements are not covered,please do not hesitate to contact ourrepresentative or Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd,Winterthur, directly.

C2.4.3.3 Free-end PTO

The free-end gear requires no additionalfoundation. The gear box is flange coupled directlyto the free end of the engine crankshaft and addsapproximately 1 meter to the overall length whilstmaking allowances for ease of access.

C2.4.3.4 PTO Tunnel

The tunnel gear is similar to the free-end gear butmounted at the intermediate propeller shaft.Positioning the PTO gear in that area of the shipdepends upon the amount of space available.Dimensions and masses as well as arrangementdrawings are available on request.

C2.4.3.5 Constant-speed gear

The constant-speed gear unit, available for free-end and tunnel gear, is coupled to the main enginePTO to provide controlled constant speed of thegenerator drive when the main engine speed is va-ried over a range of 70–104 per cent. It uses the in-herent variable-ratio possibilities of epicyclicgears, combining the epicyclic gear itself with hy-draulic variable transmission. The generator sup-ply frequency is maintained within extremely nar-row limits by the fast response of theconstant-speed gear to input speed variations. Italso allows for continuous parallel operation be-tween PTO generator and auxiliary diesel generator(s).

The cooling medium for the cylinder water cooleris either sea-water for the conventional system orfresh water for the central cooling system. In caseof the latter one, the cylinder water cooler 012 infigure C68 may be omitted as shown in figure C67.

The cylinder cooling water outlet from the engineis thermostatically controlled by an automaticvalve (011). A static pressure head is provided,thermal expansion allowed and water losses madeup by the expansion tank (013), to be installed ashigh as possible above the pump suction (002) toprevent ingress of air into the cooling systemthrough the pump gland. The freshwater generator(010) is not to require more than 40 per cent of theheat dissipated from the cylinder cooling water atCMCR and is to be used at engine loads above 50per cent only. In the event that more heat is re-quired (up to 85%), an additional temperature con-trol system is to be installed ensuring adequatecontrol of the cylinder cooling water outlet tem-perature (information can be obtained fromWNSD).

Correct treatment of the fresh water is essential forsafe engine operation. Only totally demineralizedwater or condensate must be used as water and itmust be treated with a suitable corrosion inhibitorto prevent corrosive attack, sludge formation andscale deposits in the system. No internally galvan-ized steel pipes should be used in connection withtreated fresh water, since most corrosion inhibitorshave a nitrite base. Nitrites attack the zinc lining ofgalvanized piping and create sludge.

C2.5.2.1.4 Pre-heating system

To prevent corrosive liner wear when not in serviceduring short stays in port, it is important that themain engine is kept warm. Warming-through canbe provided by a dedicated heater (004) as shownin figure C68 ‘Cylinder cooling water system’,using boiler raised steam, hot water from the dieselauxiliaries, or by direct circulation from the dieselauxiliaries. If the requirement is for a separate pre-heating pump (003), a small unit of five per cent ofthe main pump capacity (002) and an additional

non-return valve between the CCW pumps and theheater (004) are to be installed. In addition, thepumps are to be electrically interlocked to preventboth pumps running at the same time. The oper-ation of the heater is controlled by a separate tem-perature sensor installed at the engine outlet andthe flow rate is set by a throttling disc. If the dieselauxiliaries are to be used to provide warming-through directly, it is important at the design stageto ensure that there is sufficient heat available andthat cross-connecting pipework and isolating non-return valves are included.

Before starting and operating the engine, a tem-perature of 60°C at the cylinder cooling wateroutlet of the main engine is recommended. If theengine is to be started below the recommendedtemperature, engine power is not to exceed 80 percent of CMCR until the water temperature has re-ached 60°C.

F10.3950

Fig. C69 Engine pre-heating power

To estimate the heater power capacity required toachieve 60°C, the heating-up time and the engineambient temperature are the most important para-meters. They are plotted on the graph shown in fig-ure C69 to arrive at the required capacity per cyl-inder; this figure is multiplied by the number ofcylinders to give the total heater capacity required.

C2.5.2.2 Lubricating oil systems

C2.5.2.2.1 Lubricating oil systems forengine

Lubrication of the main bearings, thrust bearings,bottom-end bearings, camshaft bearings, cross-head bearings, together with the piston cooling, iscarried out by the main lubricating oil system, seefigure C70 ‘Main lubricating oil system’. The elev-ated lub. oil pressure for the crosshead bearings isobtained using separate pumps. The cylinder linerlubrication is carried out by a separate system asshown in figure C71 ‘Cylinder lubricating oil sys-tem’. The system oil and cylinder lubricating oilconsumptions are indicated in table A1.

The products listed in table C35 ‘Lubricating oils’were selected in co-operation with the oil suppliersand are considered the appropriate lubricants intheir respective product lines for the applicationindicated. Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd does notaccept any liability for the quality of the supplied lu-bricating oil or its performance in actual service.

In addition to the oils shown in the mentioned list,there are other brands which might be suitable forthe use in Sulzer diesel engines. Information con-cerning such brands may be obtained on requestfrom Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd, Winterthur.

For marine crosshead engines with oil-cooled pis-tons, an additive-type crankcase oil of the SAE 30viscosity grade must be used as system oil. It musthave a minimum BN of 5, detergent properties andmeet load carrying performance of the FZG gearmachine method IP 334/90, load stage pass 9.Good thermal stability, antifoam properties andgood demulsifying performance are further re-quirements.

The cylinders in the crosshead diesel engines arelubricated by a separate system working on theonce-through principle, i.e. fresh lubricating oil isdirectly fed into the cylinders to provide lubricationfor the liners, pistons and piston rings.

For normal operating conditions, a high-alkalinemarine cylinder oil of the SAE 50 viscosity gradewith a minimum kinematic viscosity of 18.5 cSt at100°C is recommended. The alkalinity of the oil isindicated by its Base Number (BN).

Note:The ‘Base Number’ or ‘BN’ was formerly known as‘Total Base Number’ or ‘TBN’. Only the name haschanged, values remain identical.

C2.5.2.2.2 Lubricating oil systems forturbochargers

The ABB VTR turbochargers with antifriction bear-ings have a fully integrated lub. oil system which isindependent of the engine’s lub. oil system.The Mitsubishi MET and MAN NA turbochargersfeature journal bearings which can be lubricatedfrom the engine’s lub. oil system. However, to ex-tend the life time of these journal bearings, a separ-ate lub. oil system which only serves the turbo-chargers can be supplied. For more informationplease contact WNSD.

C2.5.2.2.3 Lubricating oil maintenance andtreatment

Treatment of the system oil by self-cleaning separ-ators is absolutely necessary to maintain the oil ingood condition over a long working period. In order to remove any water from the lubricatingoil the separator has to operate as a purifier of thefull discharge type. Pre-heating of the oil between90–95°C will increase the efficiency of the separ-ation process.

The minimum throughput of the lubricating oil sep-arator is determined by the contracted maximumpower (CMCR) of the engine as follows:

V.

separator(CMCR) � 0.14 dm3�kWh

Example:Estimation of minimum throughput of the lubricating oil separator for 7RTA62U-B with CMCR = 15 995 kW

V.

separator(CMCR) � 0.14 � 15 995 � 2240 dm3�h

The separator throughput related to its nominal ca-pacity has to conform to the recommendations ofthe separator manufacturer. This separator shouldnever be used for fuel oil separation, to preventcross-contamination of the lubricating oil.

C2.5.2.3 Fuel oil systems

C2.5.2.3.1 Fuel oil requirements

In Table C36 ‘Fuel oil requirements’ some heavyfuel oil specifications are given. The values in thecolumn ‘Bunker limit’ (RMH55) indicate the mini-mum quality of heavy fuel as bunkered. Good op-erating results have been achieved with commer-cially available fuels within these limits. Thecolumn ‘Recommended fuel quality’ is an exampleof a good quality fuel of the type commonly used inSulzer diesel engines. The use of this variety of fuelcan be expected to have a positive influence onoverhaul periods, by improving combustion, wearand exhaust gas composition.The fuel oil as bunkered must be processed beforeit enters the engine. The difference between therecommended fuel quality of bunker and at engineinlet is an approximate indication of the improve-ment that must be achieved by fuel oil treatment.If catalyst fines are present they must be removed.The fuel oil should contain no foreign substancesor chemical waste which are hazardous to thesafety of the ship, harmful to the environment ordetrimental to the performance of machinery.

The CCAI (Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index,ISO 8217: 1996) is a function of viscosity and den-sity, and is an indication of the ignition quality formedium and high-speed diesel engines. In low-speed engines ignition delay as given by the CCAIis of less importance. There is no rigidly applicablelimit for this quantity, but good results have beenobtained with commercially available fuels whichhave CCAI values up to 870.

The maximum admissible viscosity of the fuel thatcan be used in an installation depends on the heat-ing and fuel preparation facilities available. As aguidance, the necessary pre-heating temperaturefor a given nominal viscosity can be taken from theviscosity/temperature chart in figure C72. The recommended viscosity range of fuel enteringthe engine is: 13–17 mm2/s (cSt) .

C2.5.2.3.2 Fuel oil treatment

Figure C73 ‘Heavy fuel oil treatment layout’ is aschematic diagram of a fuel oil treatment plant andthe following points should be considered beforedesigning a system.

Gravitational settling of water and sediment inmodern fuel oils is an extremely slow process dueto the small density difference between the oil andthe sediment. To achieve the best settling results,the surface area of the settling tank should be aslarge as possible, because the settling process isa function of the fuel surface area of the tank, theviscosity and the density difference. The purposeof the settling tank is to separate the sludge andwater contained in the fuel oil, to act as a buffertank and to provide a suitable constant oil tempera-ture of 60°C to 70°C.

It is advisable to use separators without gravitydisc to meet the requirements for heavy fuel separ-ation up to 730 mm2/s at 50°C and make the con-tinuous and unattended onboard operation easier.As it is usual to install a stand-by separator as aback-up, it is of advantage to use it to improve theseparation. For the arrangement of separators,refer to the manufacturer’s instructions. The effec-tive separator throughput is to be in accordancewith the maximum consumption of the dieselengine plus a margin of 15–20 per cent , whichensures that separated fuel oil flows back from thedaily tank to the settling tank. The separators areto be in continuous operation from port to port.

Figure C73 ‘Heavy fuel oil treatment layout’ showsindividual positive displacement type pumps but itis also acceptable to have these pumps integratedin the separator. It is important that the pumps op-erate at constant capacity in order to achieve equalresults over the whole operating time.The separation temperature is to be controlledwithin ± 2°C by a preheater .

To achieve a good separating effect, the through-put and the temperature of the fuel must be ad-justed in relation to the viscosity. With high-viscos-ity fuels, the separating temperature must beincreased whereas the throughput must be de-creased in relation to the nominal capacity of theseparator. For recommended operating data, referalso to the separator instruction manual.

C2.5.2.3.3 Pressurized fuel oil system

The system shown in figure C74 is recommendedfor use with engines burning heavy fuel oils. Fueloil from the heated daily tank (002, figure C73)passes through the change-over valve (002), filter(003) and is transferred to the mixing unit (006) bythe low-pressure feed pump (004). The high-pres-sure booster pump (007) transfers the fuel throughthe heater (008), viscosimeter and the filter (009)into the engine manifold to supply the injectionpumps (011).

Circulation is maintained via pipework back to themixing tank which equalizes the fuel oil tempera-ture between the hot oil returning from the engineand the cooler oil from the daily tank. The pressureregulating valve (005) controls the delivery of thelow-pressure pump and ensures that the dis-charge pressure is 1 bar above evaporation pres-sure to prevent entrained water from flashing offinto steam.

Table C37 outlines the basic requirements for asystem similar to figure C75 ‘Starting and controlair system’ for maximum engine rating.

Figure C76 enables optimization of compressorsand air receivers for the contract maximum con-tinuous rating (CMCR). The figure on the rightshows the factor for multiplying compressor and airreceiver capacities, e.g. for a 7RTA62U-B enginewith CMCR of 85 per cent power at approx. 90 percent speed the Rx point has a factor of 1.09. Referring to table C37 the requirement is:

For 25 bar design

– 2 x 3.4 x 1.09 m3 for air receivers– 2 x 86 x 1.09 Nm3/h for air compressors

For 30 bar design

– 2 x 3.0 x 1.09 m3 for air receivers– 2 x 89 x 1.09 Nm3/h for air compressors

Note: The above capacities are for the engineonly. If additional consumers for boardpurposes must be supplied with air, thenadditional capacity must be provided.

Different extinguishing agents can be consideredfor fire fighting purposes. Their selection is madeeither by shipbuilder or shipowner in compliancewith the rules of the classification society involved.

As far as the fire protection of the main engine isconcerned, carbon dioxid (CO2, see table C39above) or steam can be used.

Steam as an alternative fire-extinguishing mediumfor the scavenge air spaces of the piston undersidemay result in corrosion if adequate countermea-sures are not taken immediately after use.

C2.5.6 Engine air supply / Engine room ventilation

The air supply to the engine room can be calcu-lated according to ISO 8861 ’Shipbuilding engineroom ventilation in diesel engined ships’.By experience, the amount of air supplied to theengine room by ventilators should be approxi-mately twice the amount of air consumed by themain engine at CMCR power in order to keep theengine room temperature within reasonable le-vels. If auxiliary engines are in the same room, theirair consumption must be added to the air con-sumption of the main engine. A portion of the airmust be ducted to the vicinity of the turbochargerair inlet filters.

Air filtration:

In the event that the air supply to the machineryspaces has a high dust content in excess of0.5 mg/m3 which can be the case on ships tradingin coastal waters, desert areas or transporting dustcreating cargoes, there is a greater risk of in-creased wear to the piston rings and cylinderliners.

The normal air filters fitted to the turbochargers areintended mainly as silencers and not to protect the

engine against dust. The necessity for the installa-tion of a dust filter and the choice of filter type de-pends mainly on the concentration and composi-tion of the dust in the suction air.

Where the suction air is expected to have a dustcontent of 0.5 mg/m3 or more, the engine must beprotected by filtering this air before entering the en-gine, e.g. also on coastal vessels or vessels fre-quenting ports having high atmospheric dust orsand content.

Marine installations have seldom had special airfilters installed until now. Stationary plants on theother hand, very often have air filters fitted to pro-tect the diesel engine. The installation of a filtrationunit for the air supply to the diesel engines and gen-eral machinery spaces on vessels regularly trans-porting dust-creating cargoes such as iron ore andbauxite, is highly recommended.

Table C40 and figure C81 ‘Air filter size’ show howthe various types of filter are to be applied.

C3.2 Engine data

C3.2.1 Reference conditions

If the engine is operated in the ambient conditionrange between reference conditions and design(tropical) conditions its performance is not af-fected.

The engine performance data BSFC, BSEF and tEaT in figures C86, C87 and C88 are based onreference conditions as shown below. They arefollowing the ISO Standard 3046-1:

• Air temperature before blower : 25�C• Engine room ambient air temp. : 25�C• Coolant temp. before SAC : 25�C for SW• Coolant temp. before SAC : 29�C for FW• Barometric pressure : 1000 mbar

The reference value for the fuel lower calorificvalue (LCV) follows an international marine con-vention. The specified LCV of 42.7 MJ/kg differsfrom the ISO Standard.

C3.2.2 Design conditions

The design data for the ancillary systems arebased on standard design (tropical) conditionsas shown below. They are following the IMO-2000recommendations.• Air temperature before blower : 45�C• Engine ambient air temp. : 45�C• Coolant temp. before SAC : 32�C for SW• Coolant temp. before SAC : 36�C for FW• Barometric pressure : 1000 mbar

The reference value for the fuel lower calorificvalue (LCV) of 42.7 MJ/kg follows an internationalmarine convention.

C3.2.3 Ancillary system designparameters

The layout of the ancillary systems of the enginebases on the performance of its specified ratingpoint Rx (CMCR). The given design parametersmust be considered in the plant design to ensurea proper function of engine and ancillary systems.• Cylinder water outlet temp. : 85�C• Oil temperature before engine : 45�C• Exhaust gas back pressure

at rated power (Rx) : 300 mm WG

The engine power is independent from ambientconditions. The cylinder water outlet temperatureand the oil temperature before engine are system-internally controlled and have to remain at the spe-cified level.

C3.2.4 Estimation of engine performance data

To estimate the engine performance data BSFC,BSEF and tEaT for any engine rating Rx in the de-fined rating field, figures C86, C87 and C88 maybe used.

The estimation of the performance data for any en-gine power will be done with the help of a computerprogram, the so-called winGTD , which is enclosedin this book in the form of a CD-ROM.

If needed we offer a computerized information ser-vice to analyse the engine’s heat balance and de-termine main system data for any rating pointwithin the engine layout field. For details of this service please refer to chaptersC3.5 and F.The installation of the winGTD and the hardwarespecification are explained in chapter F.

C3.2.5 Vibration aspects

As a leading designer and licensor we are con-cerned that satisfactory vibration levels are ob-tained with our engine installations. The assess-ment and reduction of vibration is subject forcontinuous research and we have developed ex-tensive computer software, analytical proceduresand measuring techniques to deal with the subject.For successful design the vibration behaviourneeds to be calculated over the whole operatingrange of the engine and propulsion system.

C3.2.5.1 Torsional vibration

This involves the whole shafting system compris-ing crankshaft, propulsion shafting, propeller, en-gine running gear, flexible couplings and powertake off. It is caused by gas and inertia forces aswell as by the irregularities of the propeller torque.

It is vitally important to limit torsional vibration inorder to avoid damage to the shafting. If the vibra-tion at a critical speed reaches dangerous stresslevels, the corresponding speed range has to bepassed through rapidly (barred-speed range).However, barred-speed ranges can be reduced,shifted, and in some cases avoided by installing aheavy flywheel at the driving end and/or a tuningwheel at the free end or a torsional vibrationdamper at the free end of the crankshaft.

Torsional vibration dampers of various designs areavailable to reduce energy on different levels ofvibration.Lower energy vibrations are absorbed by viscousdampers.Higher energy vibrations are absorbed by a springloaded damper type. In this case the damper issupplied with oil from the engine’s lubricating sys-tem and the heat dissipated can range from 20 kWto 80 kW depending on the size of the damper.

C3.2.5.2 Axial vibration

The shafting system is also able to vibrate in theaxial direction. This vibration is due to the axial ex-citations coming from the engine and the propeller.

In order to limit the influence of these excitations,and limit the level of vibration, an integrated axialdetuner/damper is fitted to the crankshaft of all Sul-zer RTA engines. In rare cases (e.g. five-cylinderengines and very stiff intermediate and propellershafts) the influence of axial vibration may be ap-parent at the engine top. This can be reduced bylongitudinal friction stays attached to the ship’sstructure.

C3.2.5.3 Hull vibration

The hull and accommodation are susceptible tovibration caused by the propeller, machinery andsea conditions. Controlling hull vibration isachieved by a number of different means and mayrequire fitting longitudinal and lateral stays to themain engine and installing second order balancerson each end of the main engine. These balancersare available for our engines and involve counter-weights rotating at twice the engine speed. Thereare also electrically driven secondary balancersavailable for mounting at the aft end of the ship andwhich are tuned to the engine’s operating speedand controlled in accordance with it.

Eliminating hull vibration requires co-operation be-tween the propeller manufacturer, naval architect,shipyard and engine builder.

C3.2.5.4 Estimation of engine vibrationdata

The RTA72U-B engine has been designed to elim-inate free forces and minimize unbalanced exter-nal couples of first and second order.

However, different numbers of cylinders, ratingpoint and engine tuning affect the magnitude ofthese couples and if unchecked, result in vibration.

Figure C89 is a representation of the engine show-ing the free couples of mass forces and the torquevariation about the centre lines of the engine andcrankshaft.M1V is the first order couple having a vertical com-ponent.M1H is the first order couple having a horizontalcomponent.M2V is the second order couple having a verticalcomponent.∆M is the reaction to variations in the nominaltorque.Reducing the first order couples is achieved bycounterweights installed at both ends of the crank-shaft.The second order couple is larger on 5 and 6 cylin-der engines than it is on engines of 7 and 8 cylin-ders, however it is reduced to acceptable levels byfitting second order balancers.

It is important to establish at the design stage whatthe ship’s vibration form is likely to be. Table C41will assist in assessing the effects of fitting thechosen RTA72U-B.

As mentioned earlier the results of vibration analy-sis may lead to fitting engine stays. The lateralcomponents of the forces acting on the cross-heads may induce lateral rocking, depending onthe number of cylinders and the firing sequence.

These forces may be transmitted to the engineseating structure, and induce local vibrations.These vibrations are difficult to predict and stronglydepend on the engine foundation, frame stiffnessand pipe connections. For this reason, we recom-mend consideration of lateral stays (please refer totable C43 ‘Countermeasures for dynamic effects’),either of the hydraulic or friction type early in thedesign stage.

Figure C90 illustrates typical attachment points forlateral stays. Friction stays are installed on the en-gine exhaust side only.

C3.4 Auxiliary power generation

C3.4.1 General information

C3.4.1.1 Introduction

This chapter covers a number of auxiliary powerarrangements for consideration. However, if yourrequirements are not fulfilled, please contact ourrepresentative or consult Wärtsilä NSDSwitzerland Ltd, Winterthur, directly. Our aim is toprovide flexibility in power management, reduceoverall fuel consumption and maintain uni-fueloperation.

The sea load demand for refrigerationcompressors, engine and deck ancillaries,machinery space auxiliaries and hotel load can bemet using a main-engine driven generator, by asteam-turbine driven generator utilising wasteheat from the engine exhaust gas, or simply byauxiliary generator sets.

Although the waste heat option is less attractivenow, due to improved combustion and lowerexhaust gas temperatures, it is still a practicalproposition for engines employed on longvoyages. The electrical power required whenloading and discharging cannot be met with amain-engine driven generator or with the wasteheat recovery system, and for vessels employedon comparatively short voyages the waste heatsystem is not viable. Stand-by diesel generatorsets (Wärtsilä or Sulzer GenSet) , burning heavyfuel oil or marine diesel oil, available for use in port,when manouevring or at anchor, provide theflexibility required when the main engine powercannot be utilised.Refer to chapter C3.4.4 of this ESPM for detailsof the Sulzer S20U GenSet.

C3.4.1.2 System description and layout

Although initial installation costs for a heatrecovery plant are relatively high, these are offsetby fuel savings if maximum use is made of thesteam output, i.e., electrical power, space heating,tank heating, fuel and water heating, anddomestics.

C3.4.2 Waste heat recovery

Before any decisions can be made about installinga waste heat recovery system the steam andelectrical power available from the exhaust gas isto be established.

C3.4.3 Power take off (PTO)

Main-engine driven generators are an attractiveoption when consideration is given to simplicity ofoperation and low maintenance costs. Thegenerator is driven through a free-end or tunnelPTO gear with frequency control provided bythyristor inverters or constant-speed gears.

C3.4.3.1 Arrangements of PTO

Figures C102 and C103 illustrate the PTO options.If your particular requirements are not covered,please do not hesitate to contact ourrepresentative or Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd,Winterthur, directly.

C3.4.3.3 Free-end PTO

The free-end gear requires no additionalfoundation. The gear box is flange coupled directlyto the free end of the engine crankshaft and addsapproximately 1 meter to the overall length whilstmaking allowances for ease of access.

C3.4.3.4 PTO Tunnel

The tunnel gear is similar to the free-end gear butmounted at the intermediate propeller shaft.Positioning the PTO gear in that area of the shipdepends upon the amount of space available.Dimensions and masses as well as arrangementdrawings are available on request.

C3.4.3.5 Constant-speed gear

The constant-speed gear unit, available for free-end and tunnel gear, is coupled to the main enginePTO to provide controlled constant speed of thegenerator drive when the main engine speed is va-ried over a range of 70–104 per cent. It uses the in-herent variable-ratio possibilities of epicyclicgears, combining the epicyclic gear itself with hy-draulic variable transmission. The generator sup-ply frequency is maintained within extremely nar-row limits by the fast response of theconstant-speed gear to input speed variations. Italso allows for continuous parallel operation be-tween PTO generator and auxiliary dieselgenerator(s).

The cooling medium for the cylinder water cooleris either sea-water for the conventional system orfresh water for the central cooling system. In caseof the latter one, the cylinder water cooler 012 infigure C110 may be omitted as shown in figureC109.

The cylinder cooling water outlet from the engineis thermostatically controlled by an automaticvalve (011). A static pressure head is provided,thermal expansion allowed and water losses madeup by the expansion tank (013), to be installed ashigh as possible above the pump suction (002) toprevent ingress of air into the cooling systemthrough the pump gland. The freshwater generator(010) is not to require more than 40 per cent of theheat dissipated from the cylinder cooling water atCMCR and is to be used at engine loads above 50per cent only. In the event that more heat is re-quired (up to 85%), an additional temperature con-trol system is to be installed ensuring adequatecontrol of the cylinder cooling water outlet tem-perature (information can be obtained fromWNSD).

Correct treatment of the fresh water is essential forsafe engine operation. Only totally demineralizedwater or condensate must be used as water and itmust be treated with a suitable corrosion inhibitorto prevent corrosive attack, sludge formation andscale deposits in the system. No internally galvan-ized steel pipes should be used in connection withtreated fresh water, since most corrosion inhibitorshave a nitrite base. Nitrites attack the zinc lining ofgalvanized piping and create sludge.

C3.5.2.1.4 Pre-heating system

To prevent corrosive liner wear when not in serviceduring short stays in port, it is important that themain engine is kept warm. Warming-through canbe provided by a dedicated heater (004) as shownin figure C110 ‘Cylinder cooling water system’,

using boiler raised steam, hot water from the dieselauxiliaries, or by direct circulation from the dieselauxiliaries. If the requirement is for a separate pre-heating pump (003), a small unit of five per cent ofthe main pump capacity (002) and an additionalnon-return valve between the CCW pumps and theheater (004) are to be installed. In addition, thepumps are to be electrically interlocked to preventboth pumps running at the same time. The oper-ation of the heater is controlled by a separate tem-perature sensor installed at the engine outlet andthe flow rate is set by a throttling disc. If the dieselauxiliaries are to be used to provide warming-through directly, it is important at the design stageto ensure that there is sufficient heat available andthat cross-connecting pipework and isolating non-return valves are included.

Before starting and operating the engine, a tem-perature of 60°C at the cylinder cooling wateroutlet of the main engine is recommended. If theengine is to be started below the recommendedtemperature, engine power is not to exceed 80 percent of CMCR until the water temperature has re-ached 60°C.

To estimate the heater power capacity required toachieve 60°C, the heating-up time and the engineambient temperature are the most important para-meters. They are plotted on the graph shown in fig-ure C111 to arrive at the required capacity per cyl-inder; this figure is multiplied by the number ofcylinders to give the total heater capacity required.

Example for 7RTA52U-B:For an estimated heating-up time of 6 hours toachieve 60°C and for an engine ambient tempera-ture of 40°C the approximate amount of heat forengine pre-heating per cylinder is 18 kW (see fig-ure C111) is:Heater capacity = 7 � 18 kW = 126 kW

C3.5.2.2 Lubricating oil systems

C3.5.2.2.1 Lubricating oil systems forengine

Lubrication of the main bearings, thrust bearings,bottom-end bearings, camshaft bearings, cross-head bearings, together with the piston cooling, iscarried out by the main lubricating oil system, seefigure C112 ‘Main lubricating oil system’. The elev-ated lub. oil pressure for the crosshead bearings isobtained using separate pumps. The cylinder linerlubrication is carried out by a separate system asshown in figure C113 ‘Cylinder lubricating oil sys-tem’. The system oil and cylinder lubricating oilconsumptions are indicated in table A1.

The products listed in table C55 ‘Lubricating oils’were selected in co-operation with the oil suppliersand are considered the appropriate lubricants intheir respective product lines for the applicationindicated. Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd does notaccept any liability for the quality of the supplied lu-bricating oil or its performance in actual service.

In addition to the oils shown in the mentioned list,there are other brands which might be suitable forthe use in Sulzer diesel engines. Information con-cerning such brands may be obtained on requestfrom Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd, Winterthur.

For marine crosshead engines with oil-cooled pis-tons, an additive-type crankcase oil of the SAE 30viscosity grade must be used as system oil. It musthave a minimum BN of 5, detergent properties andmeet load carrying performance of the FZG gearmachine method IP 334/90, load stage pass 9.Good thermal stability, antifoam properties andgood demulsifying performance are further re-quirements.

The cylinders in the crosshead diesel engines arelubricated by a separate system working on theonce-through principle, i.e. fresh lubricating oil isdirectly fed into the cylinders to provide lubricationfor the liners, pistons and piston rings.

For normal operating conditions, a high-alkalinemarine cylinder oil of the SAE 50 viscosity gradewith a minimum kinematic viscosity of 18.5 cSt at100°C is recommended. The alkalinity of the oil isindicated by its Base Number (BN).

Note:The ‘Base Number’ or ‘BN’ was formerly known as‘Total Base Number’ or ‘TBN’. Only the name haschanged, values remain identical.

C3.5.2.2.2 Lubricating oil systems forturbochargers

The ABB VTR turbochargers with antifriction bear-ings have a fully integrated lub. oil system which isindependent of the engine’s lub. oil system.The Mitsubishi MET and MAN NA turbochargersfeature journal bearings which can be lubricatedfrom the engine’s lub. oil system. However, to ex-tend the life time of these journal bearings, a separ-ate lub. oil system which only serves the turbo-chargers can be supplied. For more informationplease contact WNSD.

C3.5.2.2.3 Lubricating oil maintenance andtreatment

Treatment of the system oil by self-cleaning separ-ators is absolutely necessary to maintain the oil ingood condition over a long working period. In order to remove any water from the lubricatingoil the separator has to operate as a purifier of thefull discharge type. Pre-heating of the oil between90–95°C will increase the efficiency of the separ-ation process.

The minimum throughput of the lubricating oil sep-arator is determined by the contracted maximumpower (CMCR) of the engine as follows:

V.

separator(CMCR) � 0.14 dm3�kWh

Example:Estimation of minimum throughput of the lubricating oil separator for 7RTA72U-B with CMCR = 21 560 kW

V.

separator(CMCR) � 0.14 � 21 560 � 3018 dm3�h

The separator throughput related to its nominal ca-pacity has to conform to the recommendations ofthe separator manufacturer. This separator shouldnever be used for fuel oil separation, to preventcross-contamination of the lubricating oil.

C3.5.2.3 Fuel oil systems

C3.5.2.3.1 Fuel oil requirements

In Table C56 ‘Fuel oil requirements’ some heavyfuel oil specifications are given. The values in thecolumn ‘Bunker limit’ (RMH55) indicate the mini-mum quality of heavy fuel as bunkered. Good op-erating results have been achieved with commer-cially available fuels within these limits. Thecolumn ‘Recommended fuel quality’ is an exampleof a good quality fuel of the type commonly used inSulzer diesel engines. The use of this variety of fuelcan be expected to have a positive influence onoverhaul periods, by improving combustion, wearand exhaust gas composition.The fuel oil as bunkered must be processed beforeit enters the engine. The difference between therecommended fuel quality of bunker and at engineinlet is an approximate indication of the improve-ment that must be achieved by fuel oil treatment.If catalyst fines are present they must be removed.The fuel oil should contain no foreign substancesor chemical waste which are hazardous to thesafety of the ship, harmful to the environment ordetrimental to the performance of machinery.

The CCAI (Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index,ISO 8217: 1996) is a function of viscosity and den-sity, and is an indication of the ignition quality formedium and high-speed diesel engines. In low-speed engines ignition delay as given by the CCAIis of less importance. There is no rigidly applicablelimit for this quantity, but good results have beenobtained with commercially available fuels whichhave CCAI values up to 870.

The maximum admissible viscosity of the fuel thatcan be used in an installation depends on the heat-ing and fuel preparation facilities available. As aguidance, the necessary pre-heating temperaturefor a given nominal viscosity can be taken from theviscosity/temperature chart in figure C114. The recommended viscosity range of fuel enteringthe engine is: 13–17 mm2/s (cSt) .

C3.5.2.3.2 Fuel oil treatment

Figure C115 ‘Heavy fuel oil treatment layout’ is aschematic diagram of a fuel oil treatment plant andthe following points should be considered beforedesigning a system.

Gravitational settling of water and sediment inmodern fuel oils is an extremely slow process dueto the small density difference between the oil andthe sediment. To achieve the best settling results,the surface area of the settling tank should be aslarge as possible, because the settling process isa function of the fuel surface area of the tank, theviscosity and the density difference. The purposeof the settling tank is to separate the sludge andwater contained in the fuel oil, to act as a buffertank and to provide a suitable constant oil tempera-ture of 60°C to 70°C.

It is advisable to use separators without gravitydisc to meet the requirements for heavy fuel separ-ation up to 730 mm2/s at 50°C and make the con-tinuous and unattended onboard operation easier.As it is usual to install a stand-by separator as aback-up, it is of advantage to use it to improve theseparation. For the arrangement of separators,refer to the manufacturer’s instructions. The effec-tive separator throughput is to be in accordancewith the maximum consumption of the dieselengine plus a margin of 15–20 per cent , whichensures that separated fuel oil flows back from thedaily tank to the settling tank. The separators areto be in continuous operation from port to port.

Figure C115 ‘Heavy fuel oil treatment layout’shows individual positive displacement typepumps but it is also acceptable to have thesepumps integrated in the separator. It is importantthat the pumps operate at constant capacity inorder to achieve equal results over the whole oper-ating time.The separation temperature is to be controlledwithin ± 2°C by a preheater .

To achieve a good separating effect, the through-put and the temperature of the fuel must be ad-justed in relation to the viscosity. With high-viscos-ity fuels, the separating temperature must beincreased whereas the throughput must be de-creased in relation to the nominal capacity of theseparator. For recommended operating data, referalso to the separator instruction manual.

C3.5.2.3.3 Pressurized fuel oil system

The system shown in figure C116 is recommendedfor use with engines burning heavy fuel oils. Fueloil from the heated daily tank (002, figure C115)passes through the change-over valve (002), filter(003) and is transferred to the mixing unit (006) bythe low-pressure feed pump (004). The high-pres-sure booster pump (007) transfers the fuel throughthe heater (008), viscosimeter and the filter (009)into the engine manifold to supply the injectionpumps (011).

Circulation is maintained via pipework back to themixing tank which equalizes the fuel oil tempera-ture between the hot oil returning from the engineand the cooler oil from the daily tank. The pressureregulating valve (005) controls the delivery of thelow-pressure pump and ensures that the dis-charge pressure is 1 bar above evaporation pres-sure to prevent entrained water from flashing offinto steam.

The figure on the rightshows the factor for multiplying compressor and airreceiver capacities, e.g. for a 7RTA72U-B enginewith CMCR of 85 per cent power at approx. 90 percent speed the Rx point has a factor of 1.09. Referring to table C57 the requirement is:

For 25 bar design

– 2 x 5.7 x 1.09 m3 for air receivers– 2 x 140 x 1.09 Nm3/h for air compressors

For 30 bar design

– 2 x 5.0 x 1.09 m3 for air receivers– 2 x 150 x 1.09 Nm3/h for air compressors

Note: The above capacities are for the engineonly. If additional consumers for boardpurposes must be supplied with air, thenadditional capacity must be provided.

C3.5.6 Engine air supply / Engine room ventilation

The air supply to the engine room can be calcu-lated according to ISO 8861 ’Shipbuilding engineroom ventilation in diesel engined ships’.By experience, the amount of air supplied to theengine room by ventilators should be approxi-mately twice the amount of air consumed by themain engine at CMCR power in order to keep theengine room temperature within reasonable le-vels. If auxiliary engines are in the same room, theirair consumption must be added to the air con-sumption of the main engine. A portion of the airmust be ducted to the vicinity of the turbochargerair inlet filters.

Air filtration:

In the event that the air supply to the machineryspaces has a high dust content in excess of0.5 mg/m3 which can be the case on ships tradingin coastal waters, desert areas or transporting dustcreating cargoes, there is a greater risk of in-creased wear to the piston rings and cylinderliners.

The normal air filters fitted to the turbochargers areintended mainly as silencers and not to protect the

engine against dust. The necessity for the installa-tion of a dust filter and the choice of filter type de-pends mainly on the concentration and composi-tion of the dust in the suction air.

Where the suction air is expected to have a dustcontent of 0.5 mg/m3 or more, the engine must beprotected by filtering this air before entering the en-gine, e.g. also on coastal vessels or vessels fre-quenting ports having high atmospheric dust orsand content.

Marine installations have seldom had special airfilters installed until now. Stationary plants on theother hand, very often have air filters fitted to pro-tect the diesel engine. The installation of a filtrationunit for the air supply to the diesel engines and gen-eral machinery spaces on vessels regularly trans-porting dust-creating cargoes such as iron ore andbauxite, is highly recommended.

Table C60 and figure C123 ‘Air filter size’ showhow the various types of filter are to be applied.

D1 Introduction

Developments in engine management systems atWärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd are bringing the ‘in-telligent engine’ nearer. The introduction of a stan-dard electrical interface, designated DENIS (Die-sel Engine CoNtrol and optImizing Specification),facilitates connection with approved remote con-trol systems, while new computer-based toolsunder the designation of the MAPEX family (Moni-toring and mAintenance Performance Enhance-ment with eXpert knowledge) enable shipownersand operators to improve the operating economyof their diesel engines.

Market research with leading shipowners andshipbuilders has led Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd

to introduce a new engine control philosophy: thatof the intelligent engine-management system.

Much has been written in recent literature aboutthe ‘intelligent engine’ an engine which monitors itsown condition, and adjusts its parameters for opti-mum performance in all situations. Intelligent en-gine-management takes this important idea a stepfurther by incorporating not only engine optimizingfunctions but also management features, such asmaintenance planning and spare parts control, intoa complete management system for the ‘intelligentengine-management’.

D2 DENIS family

An important step towards an intelligent engine-management system has been to create a basisfor the integration of diverse control systems andautomation levels into a unified ship managementsystem. This is achieved by providing the enginewith a clearly defined, all-electrical interface be-tween the engine and its remote control system.

This electrical interface, which is designatedDENIS, is defined by Wärtsilä NSD SwitzerlandLtd, while the manufacture and supply of the re-mote control system itself is the responsibility ofthe approved specialist manufacturers. Co-oper-ation agreements have been reached with estab-lished remote control suppliers, who operateworld-wide, in order to offer engine customers thesolutions they need. Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltdaccepts application of approved remote controlsystems only.

The DENIS family contains specifications for theengine management systems of all Sulzer dieselengines. The diesel engine interface specificationapplicable for the RTA52U-B, RTA62U-B andRTA72U-B engines is DENIS-6.In installations with Sulzer main engines and S20Ugenerating sets, the unified control concept facili-tates the application of automation. DENIS is thusa comprehensive control concept for completeship propulsion plants.

D2.1 DENIS specification

The DENIS specification does not represent anyhardware. It is the description of the signals ex-changed between engine, remote control, safetyand alarm system, and defines the control andsafety functions required by the engine.The DENIS specification is presented in two vol-umes:

– DENIS engine specification:This file contains the specification of the signalinterface on the engine and is made access-ible to all licensees. It consists basically of the

control diagram of the engine, the signal listand a minimum of fuctional requirements.

– DENIS remote control specification:This file contains the detailed functional spec-ification of the remote control system, includ-ing also optimizing functions particular to theRTA52U-B, RTA62U-B and RTA72U-B engi-nes namely variable injection timing (VIT), fuelquality setting (FQS), and the load dependentcylinder lubricating system (CLU-3).

The intellectual property of these specifications re-mains with Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd. There-fore this file is licensed to Wärtsilä NSD Switzer-land Ltd’s remote control partners only. Thesecompanies offer systems built completely accord-ing the engine designer’s specifications, testedand approved by Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd.

Due to the co-operation between Wärtsilä NSDSwitzerland Ltd and leading remote controlsuppliers additional optimizing functions can beintegrated into the remote control system, therebymaking these systems even more attractive andavoiding the need for many interfaces between dif-ferent electronic systems.

Many advantages arise from the use of DENIS:

– Systems approved by the engine designer;– Easy adaptation of a remote control system;– Integrated optimizing function;– Simpler troubleshooting;– Clear separation of responsibilities;– Single supplier possible for all shipboard au-

tomation;– Greater flexibility in integrating engine control

within a ship management system.

D2.3.2 Selection of speed control

Application of an electronic speed control isWärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd’s exclusivestandard for the RTA52U-B, RTA62U-B andRTA72U-B engines.Only electronic speed controls include all functionsnecessary for extensive engine protection, i.e. acombination of charge air pressure fuel limiter andtorque limiter. Their application is thereforegenerally recommended by WNSCH for all RTAtype engines.Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd stronglyrecommends to select the same supplier forthe electronic speed control and the remotecontrol system. In this way the effort forcommissioning both on testbed and at the yard canbe considerably reduced.Therefore one of Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd’srequirements for its remote control partners is theirability to supply their own electronic speed control.The remote control partners which do not have anapproved electronic speed control at present, areeither in the process of development and will applyfor approval by Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd in thenear future or use a product of an alreadyapproved supplier.

D2.3.3 Technical assistance

Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland offers assistance instability and plant simulation studies for speedcontrol selection and dynamic performancecalculations of the controlled system with respectto its response to power and speed variations.

D2.4 Alarm sensors

The classification societies require different alarmand safety functions, depending on the class of thevessel and its degree of automation.

These requirements are listed together with a setof sensors defined by Wärtsilä NSD SwitzerlandLtd in tables D2 and D3 ‘Alarm and safety functionsof marine diesel engines’.

The time delays for the slow-down and shut-downfunctions given in tables D2 and D3 are maximumvalues. They may be reduced at any time accord-ing to operational requirements.

When decreasing the values for the slow-downdelay times, the delay times for the respectiveshut-down functions are to be adjusted accord-ingly.

The delay values are not to be increased withoutwritten consent of Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd.

Included in the standard scope of supply are theminimum of safety sensors as required by WNSCHfor attended machinery space (AMS). If the optionof unattended machinery space (UMS) has beenselected the respective sensors according toWärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd’s requirement haveto be added.

The exact extent of delivery of alarm and safetysensors has to cover the requirements of the re-spective classification society, Wärtsilä NSDSwitzerland Ltd, the shipyard and the owner.

The sensors delivered with the engine are con-nected to terminal boxes mounted on the engine.Signal processing has to be performed in a separ-ate alarm and monitoring system usually providedby the shipyard.

D3 MAPEX Family

An intelligent engine-management system alsoneeds to include functions such as the monitoringof specific engine parameters, analysing data, andmanaging maintenance and spare parts purchas-ing activities. Many of these functions involve spe-cific and complex engine knowledge and are mostappropriately handled directly by the engine de-signer.Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd provides a full rangeof equipment for carrying out these functions,called the MAPEX family. MAPEX, or ‘Monitoringand mAintenance Performance Enhancementwith eXpert knowledge’, encompasses the follow-ing principles:

– Improved engine performance through re-duced down time;

– Monitoring of critical engine data, and intelli-gent analysis of that data;

– Advanced planning of maintenance work;

– Management support for spare parts and formaintenance;

– Access on board ship to the knowledge of ex-perts;

– Full support of data storage and transmissionby floppy diskette and by satellite communica-tion;

– Reduced costs and improved efficiency.

The MAPEX family currently comprises seven sys-tems: MAPEX-PR, SIPWA-TP, MAPEX-SM,MAPEX-TV, MAPEX-AV, MAPEX-CR andMAPEX-FC.

Further members of the MAPEX family are also en-visaged.

In each case special emphasis has been placed onuser friendliness and ease of installation.

D3.1 SIPWA-TP: Trend processing

The ‘Sulzer Integrated Piston-ring Wear-detectingArrangement with Trend Processing’ is a powerfultool for monitoring the piston ring wear and rotationon Sulzer large-bore two-stroke engines. SIPWA-TP gives the ship operator an exact status reporton the condition of the piston rings, enabling him tooptimize safely lubricating oil consumption and toundertake piston overhauls only when they areneeded. The system allows the ship operator totake countermeasures quickly in the event of ab-normal running conditions.

SIPWA-TP provides graphic colour displays of thefollowing parameters:

– Average ring wear, up to a maximum of3.5 mm radially;

– Wear of specific ring segments;– Circumferential ring wear pattern for each cyl-

D3.2 MAPEX-PR: Piston-runningreliability

MAPEX-PR, for piston-running reliability, is a sys-tem for continuously monitoring cylinder runningconditions on large-bore Sulzer two-stroke en-gines. It provides the ship’s operator with graphiccolour displays of the following data:

– Liner wall temperature;– Cylinder cooling water inlet and outlet tem-

peratures;– Scavenge air temperature after each cooler;– Engine speed;– Engine load indicator position.

By monitoring this information, it is possible to de-tect and identify situations such as piston ringbreakage, piston ring scuffing, faulty fuel injectionor cylinder cooling water flow restrictions. MAPEX-PR automatically records, displays and interpretsthe data, providing a diagnosis of the probablecause of any anomalies. In situations of a criticalnature, an alarm is activated.

MAPEX-PR is thus an ideal supplementary mod-ule to SIPWA-TP. Its short-term reporting andalarm capabilities complement the long-term trendanalysis features of SIPWA-TP. Except for the pro-cessing board itself, MAPEX-PR is implemented inthe same hardware and utilises the same displayscreen and printer as SIPWA-TP.

D3.3 MAPEX-SM

MAPEX-SM is an advanced management tool forthe administration and planning of Spare parts andMaintenance. It comes complete with the originalWärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd data for the ship-owner’s specific engines. The system is userfriendly and operates on IBM or IBM-compatiblepersonal computers. Features include purchasingof engine spare parts, inventory control, statisticalreporting, issuing of work orders, maintenance his-tory recording, and much more.

By installing MAPEX-SM at the head office as wellas on board ship, the owner can centralize requisi-tioning and purchasing operations for the entirefleet on a single system. This also allows planningof major maintenance work and recording of main-tenance histories for each vessel. Statistical fea-tures provide an overview of fleet maintenanceand purchasing, and assist in corporate strategicplanning. MAPEX-SM is modular, so that it can beinstalled in phases if desired, beginning with thehead office and later expanding to include vesselsas the shipowner’s budget permits.

Partnership agreement closes maintenancecircle

Whether installed on a single ship or throughoutthe fleet, or in a power plant, MAPEX-SM is sup-plied by Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd as part of acomplete service package, the ‘MAPEX-SMPartnership Agreement’.

The objective of optimizing maintenance with re-spect to safety, environment, availability and fuelconsumption is only achieved if the maintenancework, its cost, the spare parts consumption and theengine performance data are reported and ana-lysed.

F10.3610

Fig. D6 The maintenance circle

A) According to the design of the engine and itscomponents, different maintenance tasks arerequired.

B) These maintenance requirements areimplemented in a maintenance program suchas MAPEX-SM.

C) Crew members report the maintenance whichhas been completed directly into theMAPEX-SM database so that the operator iscontinually informed of the maintenanceprogress and the spare parts consumption.Reporting of completed work forms the basisfor optimizing the maintenance process.

D) The results of the analysis of completedmaintenance and the spare partsconsumption allow Wärtsilä NSD SwitzerlandLtd to give the operator recommendations tooptimize his maintenance programme.It also gives the engine designer the possibilityto identify the needs for design modificationsto comply with changing requirements forbetter safety, availability and maintenancecosts.

Wärtsilä NSD Switzerland Ltd provides the follow-ing technical services as part of this MAPEX-SMPartnership Agreement:

• Review and comparison of engine perform-ance parameters with expected results basedupon the company’s experience with enginesof similar type and rating.

• Analysis of performance data with respect todeveloping trends. Comparison with previousdata collected during the life of the MAPEX-SM Partnership Agreement.

• Recommendations made on possible im-provements to operating and maintenanceprocedures to minimize downtime, increaseoverall efficiency and reduce costs.

E1 IMO-2000 regulations

E1.1 IMO

The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) isthe specialized agency of the United Nations (UN)dealing with technical aspects of shipping. TheIMO has 151 member states and two associatemembers.

E1.2 Establishment of emission limitsfor ships

In 1973 an agreement on the International Con-vention for the Prevention of Pollution from shipswas reached. It was modified in 1978 and is nowknown as MARPOL 73/78. Starting from 1991 anew ANNEX VI to this convention has been pre-pared. In this new annex regulations have been in-troduced to reduce or prohibit certain types ofemissions from ships. One of these regulationsprescribes the maximum allowable emissions ofnitrogen oxides (NOx) by engines installed onships. This regulation is the only one being of directconcern for propulsion engine design.

E1.3 Regulation regarding NO xemissions of diesel engines

The following speed-dependent curve shows themaximum allowed average emissions when run-ning with marine diesel oil (MDO) (figure E1) .The emission value for an engine is calculated ac-cording to the Technical Code which is part ofANNEX VI and is almost identical with ISO 8178.As this is an average value it does not imply that theengine emits nitrogen oxides (NOx) below thegiven limit over the whole load range.

F10.3278

Fig. E1 Speed dependent maximum average NOxemissions by engines

E1.4 Date of application of ANNEX VI

During the Conference of Parties to MARPOL73/78 in September 1997 the final draft to ANNEXVI has been adopted. To come into force, the proto-col of the conference has to be ratified by 15member states, of which the combined merchantfleet constitutes at least 50 per cent of the grosstonnage of the world’s merchant shipping. Whencoming into force, the new regulations on NOxemissions will be applicable (with exceptionsstated in the regulations) to all engines with apower output of more than 130 kW which are in-stalled on ships constructed on or after 1st January2000. The date of construction is the date of keellaying of the ship. Engines in older ships do notneed to be certified unless they are subjected tomajor modifications which would significantly altertheir NOx emission characteristics.

E1.5 Procedure for certification of engines

When the new regulation comes into force it has tobe proved that every delivered engine complieswith the IMO regulation. The standard procedurewill involve testing the emissions during the trialson the test bed. If it can be proved that the engineis exactly to the same design as an already certi-fied engine, a so-called parent engine, no testingis required. The certification will be surveyed by theadministrations or delegated organisation.

E2 Measures for compliance with theIMO regulation of the RTA52U-B,RTA62U-B and RTA72U-B engines

The rating fields of the two engines are divided intotwo areas as shown in figure E2, E3 and E4 andcomprise the following measures:

E2.1 Standard measures

In the upper part of the rating field the IMO regula-tion is fulfilled by specific adaptation of the enginetuning and fuel injection parameters. Thesemeasures have all been tested and chosen withthe least disadvantage on engine costs and fuelconsumption maintaining todays high engine reali-bility.

E2.2 Extended measures

In the lower part of the rating field the IMO regula-tion is fulfilled by extended measures like fuel-water emulsion operation. Such systems havealso been tested on our test beds and are being de-veloped for ship board installation. Should youneed detail information please do not hesitate tocontact one of our offices.

Note:

Further engine developments and field experience will aim at

reducing the area of extended measures.
