Arrangement drawings

Prior to the final engineering stage we need con-firmed documentation for the project in question and with the following drawings in our possession:

Ship lines plan

Engine room arrangement

General arrangement

Foundation (re-engining)

Exhaust gas system

Together with adequate information on the hull our Project Engineers are able to carry out arrangement drawings showing the most suitable location of the propulsion plant in the ship.

The optimum layout of propeller shaftline and bear-ings, location of Power Take Off (PTO) and execution of exhaust pipe will be highly considered as well as securing sufficient space for daily maintenance and major overhauls.

Moreover, to assist the naval consultant or the shipyard in accomplishing arrangement drawings, drawings of our complete propulsion package can be forwarded on CD-ROM or by E−mail direct to you. The drawings will be forwarded in DXF− or DWG−format in latest version, which can be imported by most CAD−systems.

Our Project Service from sales to order implementa-tion comprises fields such as:

– Selection of optimum propulsion plants

– Preparation of specific arrangement drawings, piping diagrams etc

– Lay-out of accessories

– Waste heat recovery

– Installation and alignment guidance

L27/38 propulsion package

L27/38

The concept

Many years of experience with the propulsion concept, together with customers’ requirements for reliability, economy and technical advancement has resulted in this attractive 800 rpm engine with a cylinder output of 340 kW.

The L27/38 engine can also be quoted with a higher cylinder output of 365 kW at 800 rpm. However, the elevated load is only possible for operation with gas oil according to MAN Diesel specification.

Combined with MAN Diesel & Turbo gearboxes (AMG28EV), CP propellers and control systems, the L27/38 is a fully integrated propulsion package for ferries, Ro–Ro vessels, container feeder vessels, cargo ships, tugs, supply and fishing vessels requir-ing 2040–3285 kW.

Installation aspects

The development target and the idea behind the design were to achieve the shortest possible propul-sion system by optimizing the combination of engine, flexible coupling and gearbox.

Low dismantling height for cylinder head, piston and cylinder liner is ensured thanks to the marine head connecting rod.

The engine front-end box incorporates cooling water pumps, thermostatic valves, lub oil pump, lub oil cooler and the automatic lubricating oil filter.

100% PTO is possible from either end of the engine and in addition a small 50 kW PTO is optional on the front-end box for drive of a seawater pump or similar.

The turbocharger is located on the engine’s aft-end box utilising the space above the compact gearbox, resulting in a very low exhaust gas outlet flange position.

The engine can be delivered for clockwise rotation (standard) or anticlockwise rotation, seen from the flywheel end.

Main dimensions

W-minimum

The dimension “W-min” is indicated to enable the engine and reduction gearbox to be located as far aft in the engine room as possible.

S dimension

The S dimension is the stern tube length tailor made to the vessel.

L27/38

These S and W-measurements are required, before we can proceed with production of the propeller equipment.

Without these two dimensions it is impossible to prepare the drawings for the workshop.

It is also very important to know, if the stern tube has to be rough or finished machined.

Project planning data

Standard propeller plants

A complete range of propulsion systems has been developed to enable the selection of an optimum solution.

The range is particularly suitable for selecting the right combination of engine, gearbox and propeller equipment in the project stage. The condition chosen for optimisation is characterised by:

Dim. Open Ducted propellers propellers Engine power % 85 85 Engine revolutions % 98 98 Ship speed knots 14 4

The dimensioning of the equipment is carried out at 100% MCR according to the rules of classification societies without ice class notation.

In case the optimisation criteria deviate consider-ablyfrom the table above or the vessel has an ice class notation, please do contact us for a detailed calcu-lation.

L27/38

Optimising the propeller equipment

We have the facilities and expertise to design and supply a propulsion package, optimized to a cus-tomer’s specific requirements provided adequate data is available.

The design of the propeller, giving regard to the main variables which include diameter, rpm, area ratio etc, is determined by the requirements for maximum efficiency and minimum vibrations and noise levels.

The chosen diameter should be as large as the hull can accommodate, allowing the propeller revolutions to be selected according to optimum efficiency. The optimum propeller revolutions corresponding to the chosen diameter can be found from fig 1 for a given reference condition.

For a specific plant please fill in the page “Project layout data”.

Propeller clearance

To reduce emitted pressure impulses and vibrations from the propeller to the hull, MAN B&W Alpha recommend a minimum tip clearance as shown in fig 1.

For ships with slender aft body and favourable inflow conditions the lower values can be used whereas full after body and large variations in wake field cause the upper values to be used.

Definitions

The direction of rotation is defined seen from aft. The normal direction is anticlockwise for the propeller. Opposite rotating direction can also be supplied by changing direction of the engine.

Twin-screw propulsion plants

The direction of rotation of the propellers for twin-screw propulsion plants can be chosen in two ways, as shown in fig 1 and fig 2.

Usually, we recommend the propellers to turn towards each other at the top.

Fig 1 Inward turning propellers Fig 2 Outward turning propellers

This solution will normally give the propellers the highest efficiency, because the flow around the stern of most vessels will favour this direction of rotation.

However, it is not possible to give an opinion con-cerning this, unless model tests are carried out for the specific vessel.

The configuration in fig 2 is recommended for ice-breakers, river craft or the like, which operate in areas prone to dunnage, trees, ice etc floating in the water.

Outward turning propellers will tend to throw out foreign matter rather than wedging it in.

Rated output/operating range

Maximum continuous rating (MCR)

Range I: Operating range for continuous operation.

Range II: Operating range which is temporarily ad-missible e.g. during acceleration and manoeuvring.

The combinator curve must keep a sufficient distance to the load limit curve. For overload protection, a load control has to be provided.

Transmission losses (e.g. by gearboxes and shaft power) and additional power requirements (e.g. by PTO) must be taken into account.

General requirements for propeller pitch control

Pitch control of the propeller plant

For mechanical speed governors

As a load indication a 4–20 mA signal from the en-gines admission teletransmitter is supplied to the propeller control system.

For electronic speed governors

As a load indication a 4–20 mA signal from the en-gines electronic governor is supplied to the propeller control system.

General

A distinction between constant-speed operation and combinator-curve operation has to be ensured.

Combinator-curve operation:The 4–20 mA signal has to be used for the assignment of the propeller pitch to the respective engine speed. The operation curve of engine speed and propeller pitch (for power range, see Fig 1, Operating range for controllable-pitch propeller) has to be observed also during acceleration/load increase and unloading.

Acceleration/load increase

The engine speed has to be increased before in-creasing the propeller pitch (see Fig 2, Example to illustrate the change from one load step to another).

Or if increasing both synchronic the speed has to be increased faster than the propeller pitch. The area above the combinator curve should not be reached.

Deceleration/unloading the engine

The engine speed has to be reduced later than the propeller pitch (see Fig 2, Example to illustrate the change from one load step to another).

Or if decreasing both synchronic the propeller pitch has to be decreased faster than the speed. The area above the combinator curve should not be reached.

Windmilling protection

If a stopped engine (fuel admission at zero) is being turned by the propeller, this is called "windmilling". The permissible period for windmilling is short, because windmilling can cause, due to poor lubrication at low propeller speed, excessive wear of the engines bearings.

Single-screw ship

The propeller control has to ensure that the windmill-ing time is less than 40 sec.

Multiple-screw ship

The propeller control has to ensure that the windmill-ing time is less than 40 sec. In case of plants without shifting clutch, it has to be ensured that a stopped engine won't be turned by the propeller.

(Regarding maintenance work a shaft interlock has to be provided for each propeller shaft.)

Binary signals from engine control

Overload contact

The overload contact will be activated when the en-gines fuel admission reaches the maximum position. At this position, the control system has to stop the increase of the propeller pitch. If this signal remains longer than the predetermined time limit, the propeller pitch has to bo decreased.

Operation close to the limit curves (only for electronic speed governors)

This contact is activated when the engine is ope-rated close to a limit curve (torque limiter, charge air pres-sure limiter ....). When the contact is activated, the propeller control system has to keep from increasing the propeller pitch. In case the signal remains longer than the predetermined time limit, the propeller pitch has to be decreased.

Propeller pitch reduction contact

This contact is activated when disturbances in engine operation occur, for example too high exhaust-gas mean-value deviation. When the contact is activated, the propeller control system has to reduce the propel-ler pitch to 60% of the rated engine output, without change in engine speed.

Distinction between normal manoeuvre and emergency manoeuvre

The propeller control system has to be able to distin-guish between normal manoeuvre and emergency manoeuvre (i.e., two different acceleration curves are necessary).

MAN Diesel & Turbo's guidelines concerning acceleration times and power range, see page 4 and page 1.

Acceleration times

Acceleration times for controllable pitch-pro-peller plants

Notes on design

For remote controlled propeller drives for ships with unmanned or centrally monitored engine room operation, a load programme has to be provided for the engines. Within the scope of the remote control system (for the pitch adjustment of the controllable pitch propeller or reversing and load application of the engine).

This programme serves to protect the preheated engine(s) (lube oil temperature ≥ 40oC and fresh water temperature ≥ 60oC) against excessive thermal stresses, increased wear and exhaust gas turbidity, when the engines are loaded for the first time – pos-sibly up to the rated output.

In case of a manned engine room, the engine room personnel is responsible for the soft loading se-quence, before control is handed over to the bridge.

The lower time limits for normal and emergency ma-noeuvres are given in our diagrams for application and shedding of load. We strongly recommend that the limits for normal manoeuvring will be observed during normal operation, to achieve trouble-free engine operation on a long-term basis. An automatic change-over to a shortened load programme is re-quired for emergency manoeuvres.

The final design of the programme should be jointly determined by all the involved parties, considering the demands for manoeuvring and the actual service capacity.

Please note that the time constants for the dynamic behaviour of the prime mover and the vessel are in the ratio of about 1:100. It can be seen from this that an extremely short load application time generally don't lead to an improvement in ships manoeuvring behaviour (except tugs and small, fast vessels).

Propeller Operation

11.07 - Tier II

3700068-8.1Page 7 (7)

The propeller design depends on type and applica-tion of the vessel. Therefore the determination of the installed propulsive power in the ship is always the exclusive responsiblity of the yard.

Determining the engine power: The energy demand or the energy losses from all at the engine additionally attached aggregates has to be considered (e.g. shaft alternators, gearboxes). That means, after deduction of their energy demand from the engine power the remaining engine power must be sufficient for the required propulsion power.

Note!

Type testing of the engines is carried out at 110% rated output and 103% rated engine speed.

The stern tube is designed to be installed from aft. It is of welded construc-tion and machined. A 5 mm fitting allowance is left for final installation machining.

The stern tube is delivered with stern tube liners fitted. Guard, alignment / welding ring, sealing flange, adapter ring, oilbox, gaskets, bolts, gravity tank and valves are also included in the supply.

InstallationThe stern tube must be fitted with a tight fit. The propeller boss is measured and the stern tube is finished with an interference of 0.02 - 0.05 mm.

If the bore in the boss is rough or out of round then the bore should be lighter. The contact face of the boss for the stern tube flange has to be flat and square to shaft line, so a leak-proof assembly is obtained. The bore is chamfered.

The stern tube with gasket is pressed into position, the oil grooves of the stern tube bearings being in horizontal position.

The alignment / welding ring and the sealing flange is fitted on the forward end of the stern tube. The adapter ring is mounted on the forward end of the stern tube, and the oilbox is mounted to.

The installation length for the stern tube is checked - it should not deviate by more than S-dimension ± 5.0 mm

Molykote GN is applied to the bolts before tightening in to the required torque.

Bearing temperature sensors may be required by more of the classification societies, and fitted in the stern tube.

Epoxy chocksStern tube and oil box may be located in epoxy resin but precautions to provide adequate cooling of the stern tube may be necessary.

The use of epoxy resin has to be acceptable to the owner and MAN Diesel & Turbo, whilst the installation and design have to be approved by the clas-sification society involved.

MaintenanceThe stern tube requires no maintenance, but care should be taken that the lubricating oil is not contaminated by water or impurities. With good lubri-cation the life of the white-metal bearings can be 100,000 hours or more. The max permissible wear is 1.5 mm.

The clearance of a new stern tube bearing is indicated in the table below where A = shaft diameter and D = inside diameter of stern tube bearing.

A = 100 – 200 mm D = A + 0.5 + 0.05 – 0

A = 201 – 300 mm D = A + 0.6 + 0.05 – 0

A = 301 – 400 mm D = A + 0.7 + 0.05 – 0

A = 401 – 500 mm D = A + 0.8 + 0.15 – 0

A = 501 – 600 mm D = A + 0.9 + 0.15 – 0

Stern tube with epoxy resinThe stern tube can be installed with epoxy resin. See fig 1. Precautions have to be taken in order to provide sufficient cooling of the stern tube bearings.

The forward end of the stern tube is supported by an alignment ring which is to be welded to the forward end of the propeller boss. It is not necessary to secure the oil box with epoxy resin, while it is supplied with a combined welding/alignment ring.

The area and the surface pressure on the resin must be calculated from case to case.

The casting must be in accordance with the recommendations of the epoxy supplier.

Sensors in stern tube

The propulsion plant is equipped with a number of sensors which via the alarm plant warn against abnormal operating conditions which may lead to breakdown.

The sensors can be either of the on/off type or analog, depending on the alarm plant.

The sensors are designed for replacement without redrawing of shaft.

On/off sensors are usually connected in such a way that in case of alarm the switch will break, ie they are prepared for connection to a “closed circuit” alarm plant.

Net cutter and net pick−up

To avoid fishing lines and nets being wound−up by the rotating propeller and causing damage to the stern tube seal, two precautions can be taken.

By installing net cutters, a first barrier which will try to cut the net and line into smaller pieces is established.

The net cutters consist of 4 knives (fig 1 and 3) which are welded to the non-rotating boss tube of the stern and overlap the rotating part of the propeller.

Depending on the direction of rotation the knives should be installed angled 12−15

o to the shaft axis

and positioned 90o apart.

A second barrier may be applied by installing a net pick-up (fig 2) which will wind−up the net before it reaches the stern tube seal, in case the lines are able to pass the net cutters. The pick-up is placed under the protection cover at the fore-end of the propeller hub.

Installation

Installation of propeller equipment into the ship’s hull shows many different solutions depending on installation requirements from the ship yard and the ship owners operational demands.

We have the expertise and knowledge of all the different possible stern tube installations to meet specific wishes and requirements.

Oil specification for Alpha CPP-systems

L21/31L27/38

General information

For both the servo oil system (only VBS-types) as well as the stern tube/shaft seal system, only single grade mineral oil is accepted.

Viscosity limits

The kinematic viscosity @ 40°C of the oil used must be in the range 80 - 200 cSt according to ISO.

ISO & SAE classification

ISO Viscosity Grade 100 & 150 (90 - 165 cSt) as well as SAE 30 & 40 (approx 80 - 200 cSt) is ac-cepted. A mix of these two viscosity grades is also accepted.

Notes

Note I: The oil for the stern tube/shaft seal system must be chosen also in accordance with the ap-proved oil list from the shaft seal manufacturer/sup-plier.

Note II: In case of continuous operation in cold wa-ters, it is recommended to use ISO VG100/SAE30 oil for the system.

Note III: For the servo oil system, permitted con-tamination class is 10 (NAS1638), 21/19/16 (ISO4406:1999), 11 (SAE AS4059:D) and recom-mended filtration rating is10-20 µm. For both systems the maximum water content is 5%.

Note IV: Normally it will be possible to choose an oil,which fulfils the demands for both the CPP sys-tem, the engine and/or the gearbox.

IMPORTANT

In the contractual warranty period for the CPP equipment, the oil used must fulfil the above speci-fications. Any deviation will only be allowed provid-ed a written acceptance is given by MAN Diesel. Further we undertake no responsibility for difficul-ties that might be caused by the oil itself.

Lubricating oil system

The stern tube and hub lubrication is a common system. The stern tube is therefore kept under static oil pressure by a stern tube oil tank placed above sea level, see fig 1.

All our propellers with seals of the lip ring type op-erate on lub oil type SAE 30 or SAE 40 − usually the same type of lubricating oil as used in the main engine and reduction gear.

In case of operating in cold waters it is recommended to use SAE 30 lub oil.

Propeller shaft and coupling

Propeller shaft and coupling

The propeller hub and shaft are supplied assembled, with the aft seal fitted, fig 1.

The propeller blades can be supplied fitted depending on propeller size and transport facilities.

The tailshaft can only be installed from the aft end.

Standard tailshafts can be supplied up to a length of 14 m, longer on request. In plants with long shaft-lines, the max distance between the intermediate journal bearings can be estimated by means of the following formula provided the propeller speed is below 350 r/min.

L = 450 shaft diameter (mm)

L : maximum bearing distance

For twin screw ships with open shaft line arrange-ment supported by struts the distance between the aft and second aft bearing should not exeed 20 times the shaft diameter.

For easy alignment of the propeller shaftline, align-ment calculations are made and a drawing with instructions is supplied for all propulsion plants.

Propeller shaft and coupling

Hydraulic coupling flange

The flange diameter of the coupling matches the counter part of the gearbox flange. This type of coupling uses a special shrink fitted mounting. High pressure oil of more than 2,000 bar is injected be-tween the muff and the coupling flange by means of the injectors. By increasing the pressure in the annular space C, with the hydraulic pump, the muff is gradually pushed up the cone.

Longitudinal placing of the coupling flange as well as final push−up of the muff is marked on the shaft and muff.

For assembling or dismantling we recommend to use SAE30 oil. To facititate mounting at low temperatures, the coupling can be heated to approx 20

oC.

Propeller nozzle

Fig 1 Fixed nozzle - uncovered struts

General information

Nozzles offer many advantages for tugs and trawlers or whenever high thrust at low speed is required. We have supplied hundreds of nozzles, both fixed and steering nozzles. A special propeller blade design is supplied with the nozzle.

A correctly mounted nozzle will have a favourable influence on propeller induced vibrations, as the nozzle has an equalizing effect on the wake field round the propeller. Furthermore ducted propellers are lower loaded than open propellers contributing to a lower vibration level.

Design and classification approval of the nozzle support structure is the responsibility of the yard, but some general recommendations are given in the following.

Fixed nozzle

The nozzle and struts must be orientated relative to the general water flow behind the hull in order to reduce drag and optimize propulsion. Furthermore the struts must be fitted to allow free flow around the whole surface of the nozzle.

Behind a V−shaped afterbody, the nozzle should be tilted 2−3

o relative to the baseline with the forward

end downward to suit the flow to the nozzle, fig 1.

As the propeller shaft very often has an aft inclina-tion in proportion to the baseline, the relative tilting between the nozzle and the propeller shaftline is increased. This has no negative influence on the propulsion performance providing the angle does not exceed 5−7

o.

Propeller nozzle

With the propeller blade in a vertical downward posi-tion, and set at zero pitch, it is possible for the blade tip to be outside the stainless steel belt within the nozzle. This is acceptable because the tip moves astern into the stainless steel zone, when “Ahead” pitch is applied.

Cavitation in the lower part of the nozzle can normally be disregarded, due to the improved water flow and pressure head available in this area.

The position of the nozzle should have sufficient space for dismantling of the propeller blades and shaft.

The nozzle is prepared for mounting with struts.

Structurally, the side struts are cut through the shell plating and connected to the hull framing. The shell plating should be strengthened locally.

The upper nozzle support might be constructed as a closed streamlined box as shown on fig 2 or with sidestruts in V−form.

During construction of the nozzle attachment, it is important to realize that not only strength and reliability purposes have to be observed, but the hydrodynamic performance as well. Providing ample clearance between hull and nozzle reduces the thrust deduction and improves the propulsion.

Standard dimensions

The fixed nozzle can be supplied in two standard lengths, either 0.4 or 0.5 × propeller diameter, ac-cording to application.

Standard fixed nozzles are normally 0.4 × propeller diameter as propellers for geared propulsion systems are relatively low loaded.

For higher loaded propellers and fluctuations in wake field it may be recommendable to use nozzle 0.5 × propeller diameter.

Design features

General information

MAN Diesel launched the development of reduction gearboxes in the late sixties and today more than 1500 gearboxes have been produced.

The gearboxes AMG28EV and AMG55EV are spe-cially designed for the 27/38 propulsion engine and covers a power range from 2040 kW to approx 3285 kW depending on the gearbox ratio. Standard reduc-tion ratios are in the range from 2.8 to 6.0.

All reduction gearboxes are designed, manufactured, and approved in accordance with the rules of the major Classification Societies.

The gearboxes are capable of managing very high ice-class notations.

Reduction gearbox

The AMG28EV and AMG55EV reduction gearboxes incorporates the following main functions:

1. Clutch for engaging and disengaging the propeller from the engine. The friction clutch is hydraulically actuated and is of the multiple disc type with sintered plates. As option the gearbox can be supplied with-out clutch.

2. Built-on servo system for controlling the VBS propeller. Servo oil inlet to the propeller goes through the gear output shaft.

3. Gear wheels for reduction of engine revolutions to required propeller revolutions. The gear wheels are single helical, made of special alloy steel, case hardened and ground, giving a high strength with low noise levels. All bearings in the gearbox are pressure lubricated slide bearings.

4. Thrust bearings for absorbing the propeller thrust are integrated. Thrust bearings are with tilting pads to ensure full surface contact.

L27/38

5. As an option, the gearbox can be equipped with a built-on power take-off (PTO). The standard power take-off is of the primary type. This makes it possible to use the PTO while the propeller is disengaged, an advantage as the shaft alternator can be used as main power source during stay in port.

Foundation

Installation of gearbox

The foundation must be as stiff as possible in all directions to absorb the dynamic forces caused by the engine and the propeller thrust.

The propeller thrust is transferred to the foundation through fitted holding down bolts when the gearbox is seated on steel chocks.

L27/38

Fig 1 Gearbox foundation – top view

When using epoxy chocks, side and end chocks are to be fitted at both forward and aft end, fitted bolts can then be omitted.

Noise and vibration levels

Noise and vibrations from the gearbox are mini-mised by using cast iron. Precision ground helical gear wheels with optimum correction and forced lubricated slide bearings, also reduce the noise and vibration levels.

PTO on gearbox

Whenever the gearbox is supplied with a PTO, (fig 1) the arrangements must be planned in co-operation with us and all necessary information made available to enable us to calculate the complete propulsion system torsional vibration characteristic.

The most frequent requirements for PTO’s are to drive alternators, hydraulic pumps, etc.

Generally, a flexible coupling between the PTO and the generator will be necessary and this coupling must be selected to transmit the power and give suitable torsional vibration characteristics. A toothed coupling will normally not be acceptable.

L27/38

Fig 1 PTO on reduction gearbox

When the generator is not in use, we recommend that it should be free wheeling as vibrations during standstill might damage the ball bearings in the generator.

PTO’s are installed on the aft end of the gearbox and can provide 1500/1800 rpm as standard for synchronous drives.

The PTO’s are supplied as an integrated part of the gearbox. Output power is max 1500 kW.

Servo oil system

L27/38

340000

The oil system (see fig 1) consists of three systemsintegrated in one: clutch, servo for pitch control and lub oil system. The oil system is protected by a dou-ble full flow filter, which cartridge can be exchanged while the gear is in service.

The propeller pitch is adjusted by an electrically controlled proportional valve. The exact position of the propeller pitch is detected by a non-contacting magnetostrictive sensor which gives a precise and safe feed-back signal and will allow no unintended movement of the propeller pitch once the chosen pitch has been set.

Oil for pitch control is supplied to the propeller through an oil distributor ring placed in the forward end of the lower shaft.

Pressure controlled non-return valves built on to the side of the oil sleeve ensure that the actual pitch set-ting will be kept also in case of failure in power supply.

The hydraulic system is designed for a max pres-sure of 60 bar during manoeuvres, but the actual pressure required is normally considerably lower. The oil pressure is automatically reduced by approx 50% to maintain pitch once the desired setting has been attained.

Prefilter, item 25

To protect the gear oil stand–by pump (item 21), a prefilter (item 29) has to be installed before the pump.

Design data:Capacity: See gear oil stand–by pump, item 21Mesh size: 0.8 – 1.0 mm

Gear oil stand-by pump, item 21

To ensure good suction conditions for the gear oil stand-by pump (item 21), the pump should be placed as low as possible. The suction pipe should be as short and with as few bends as possible in order to prevent cavitation of the pump.

Non-return valves, item 13To facilitate automatic start-up of stand-by pumps, a non-return valve after the built-on pump and after the stand-by pump is standard.

Pressure control valves, items 8, 8a, 8b, 9 and 14

A valve block is mounted on the gearbox. The valve block consists of a pressure control valve for clutch

oil (item 9), a pressure control valve for lubricating oil (item 14) and a special pressure control valve (item 8) for servo oil.

Gear oil cooler, item 15

The gearbox is supplied with a built-on oil cooler. The cooler has only one element made of extruded material. This results in a very compact cooler. By use of correct cooling liquid no cleaning or mainte-nance is needed.

Oil quality

Lubricating oil SAE30 with FZG–class of minimum 12 can be used.

Shaft brake

L27/38

As an option, the gearbox can be supplied with a shaft brake.

The shaft brake is mainly used in connection with fishing vessels to prevent the propeller from causing damage to the fishing-tackle and consequently avoid rope or wire to be caught by the propeller. No specific requirements in design of the propeller shafting are necessary when installing shaft brakes.

When a shaft brake is required, the disc can be accommodated between any convenient inboard coupling flange in the propeller shafting and the gear thrust shaft.

Fig 1 Shaft brake arrangement

Fig 1 shows the shaft brake arrangement. Brake linings are non-asbestos – environmentally safe with longer service life.

Oil pressure from the clutch-out side of the oil dis-tributor box is led to the shaft brake, which means that the brake is activated as soon as the propeller shaft is clutched out.

The static brake power is about 5-10% of the nomi-nal torque.

The brake power can be increased by using several pairs of callipers.

The engine and reduction gear are situated on wooden foundation, covered with tarpaulins and equipped with lifting tools.

External components which are not varnished are protected with preservative (VCI-product) and inter-nal unvarnished components are sprayed with same. This protective oil is totally soluble with lubricating oils and should not be removed when putting the engine and reduction gear into service.

Storage of engine and reduction gear at customers

Engine and gearbox should always be stored indoor in a dry environment and at a minimum, covered with tarpaulins.

Engine and gearbox should be stored indoors at a minimum of 5°C above outside temperatures to avoid condensation, or in a humidity controlled en-vironment at a relative humidity of 45-55%.

Maintenance intervals

Protection maintenance must be carried out at the following intervals:

Storage conditions (dry and indoor at 5°C above outside temperature or relative Humidity of 45-55% every 4 months

If the above conditions are not met every 1 month

Exhaust must be covered until installation, and In-dicator valves closed.

Turning of engine and reduction gear

When storage of engines is for more than 60 days following dispatch from the factory, then engine must be turned 3 1/2 revolutions each month, and the “rest position” of the crank must be at a different position. Indicator valves should be opened prior to turning and then closed again on completion of turning.

Dispatch condition of engine and reduction gear from MAN Diesel

1699261-3.0Page 1 (1)

Where storage is for 8 months or more, lubricating oil must be applied to each cylinder every six months, during the monthly turning.

For lubrication, lub oil or preservation (VCI-prod-uct) (max 1/4 litres per cylinder) can be introduced through the indicator valve.

When storing the engine longer than 24 months, bearing and piston inspection must be carried out before starting up the engine, and MAN Diesel must in all cases, be informed.

During storage the reduction gear should be turned monthly and when storage exceeds 24 months, in-spection of the bearings, gearwheels, servomotor, and clutch must be carried out. MAN Diesel must in all cases be informed.

Protection maintenance

- Remove the crankcase, camshaft and rocker arm covers.

- Check the surfaces and maintain the preserva-tion by painting thoroughly with preservative (VCI-product).

- Check the top of the cylinder heads and paint-with preservation.

- Replace covers. - Check the external surfaces and restore pres-

ervation, if necessary with preservative. - Check the paint work and repair, as neces-

sary. - Remove the outlet pipe from the turbocharger

exhaust and turn the rotor of the turbocharg-er.

- Replace the pipe. - Restore the original packing as far as possible

and cover with tarpaulins.

Dispatch conditions of propeller equipment from MAN Diesel & TurboThe propeller equipment is treated by MAN Diesel & Turbo with conserva-tion grease. Furthermore the propeller equipment is covered with foil, shock absorbing material and a wooden layer. The propeller hub is furthermore sealed by a tarpaulin.

Storage of propeller equipment at customerUpon arrival of equipment it is yard responsibility to visually inspect that there are no damages to the protection cover.

Minimum protection during storage must be by covering with tarpaulins to keep dry. The propeller equipment should be keept in the wooden founda-tion as delivered.

MAN Diesel & Turbo do however recommend indoor storage and maintaining min 5˚C above outdoor temperature to avoid condensation and sweating.

Maintenance intervalsProtection maintenance must be carried out at the following intervals prior to installation:

Good storage conditions

(dry and indoor) .................... every 12 months

Poor storage conditions

(outdoor) ............................... every 3 months

Immediately after installation in the ship, the propeller shaft must be treated with preservation oil/grease in order to avoid corrosion and damages to the shaft.

Please note: Propeller parts with build-on electronics are to be stored and handled as electronic equipment

Dispatch conditions of electronic equipment from MAN Diesel & TurboPanels and control unit are packed in well-sealed boxes and to protect the components from corrosion they are supplied with a Cor-trol VCI Vapour

Corrosion Inhibitor giving an invisible protective ionic layer.

Small electronic components are packed in poly bags supplied with Cor-trol VCI tablets.

Storage of electronic equipment at customersThe equipment should always be stored in a dry environment. Under normal warehouse conditions the Cor-trol VCI will give long term protection pro-vided they remain sealed and maintained in such a condition that prevents any air circulation within.

Protection maintenanceProvided the sealing has been properly maintained no additional measures are needed for the entire period of protection.

The electronic equipment can be put into operation without degreasing, coating removal or cleaning.

Installation worksDuring the installation period the yard has to protect the cabinets and elec-trical equipments against water, dust and fire.

It is not allowed to do any welding works near the cabinets. The cabinets have to be fixed to the floor or to the walls by means of screws.

If it is necessary to do welding works near the cabinet the cabinets and panels have to be protected against heat, electric current and electro-magnetic influences. For protection against current, all cabling has to be disconnected from affected components.

Installation of additional components inside the cabinets is allowed upon approval by the responsible project manager of MAN Diesel & Turbo only.

Design features

Design criteria for L27/38

Decisive parameters for a propulsion engine are the requirements for a compact engine design and long term reliability in operation.

However, other requirements as mentioned below, have been given high priority:

• Longtime between overhauls (TBO)

• Nounscheduled maintenance and repair work

• Unrestrictedheavyfueloiloperation

• Lowfuelandluboilconsumptionrates,fulfilling

legal emission limit values

• Highmaintenanceandoperationfriendliness

• Goodpartloadbehaviour

• Easyinstallation, rigidly or resiliently seated

Engine frame and crankshaft

The monobloc nodular cast iron engine frame forms the most vital part of the engine. Through-going main bearing tie rods and the deeply positioned cylinder head tie rods maintain a static preloading of the casting, thereby absorbing dynamic loads attained from gas and mass forces, with a high safety margin.

All tie rods are tightened hydraulically.

Well supported main bearings carry the crankshaft with generously dimensioned journals. The com bi na-tion of a stiff box design and the carefully balanced crankshaft ensure that the engine is running smoothly and free of vibrations.

Front-end box

A unique feature is the introduction of the front-end box, arranged at the free end of the engine. It con-tains connecting ducts for cooling water and lubri-cating oil systems as well as pumps (plug-in units), thermostatic valve elements, lub oil cooler and the automaticback-flushingluboilfilter.

L27/38

Fig 1 Sectional view of engine

In order to reduce the engine length, external pipe connections are arranged on the sides of the front-end box

The small optional PTO is located on the forward side.

Design features

Cylinder unit

The cylinder unit incorporating cylinder head, water jacket, piston and connecting rod can either be with-drawn/installed as a complete unit or as individual components, depending on the available space conditions.The cylinder liner features a flame ring in the top. The purpose is to scrape away coke deposits on the piston top land and thereby avoid bore polish-ing of the cylinder liner. This will ensure optimal ring performance and low lub oil consumption.

The piston is a composite piston with steel crown and a nodular cast iron body. A wear resistant chrome layer on the piston rings ensures long TBOs.

The robust connecting rod is of the marine head typewiththe jointabovethemarineheadandfit-ted with hy draulically tightened units. During piston withdrawal, the marine head remains on the journal, saving dismantling space and at the same time pro-tecting the journal.

The “cross-flow” cylinder head in nodular cast iron ha s 2 inlet and 2 exhaust valves – all rotating to minimize wear and equalize temperatures. Together with the direct cooled exhaust valve seat rings, a reliable operation is ensured.

Turbocharging, charge air cooler

The turbocharging system is based on the constant pressure principle, using the newly developed radial-flowtypeMANDiesel&Turboturbochargers.

Starting air system

The engine is started by means of a built-on air starter, controlled from the instrument panel on the engine or from the remote control system.

In case of electric power failure, an emergency start-ing facility can be activated.

Acrankingdeviceisfittedontheengine.

L27/38

Lubricating oil system

The engine features an entirely closed lub oil system which ensures easy installation on board and no risk of dirt entering the lub oil circuit.

The helical gear type lub oil pump is mounted in the front-end box and draws the oil from the wet sump.

Via a pressure regulator, the oil flows through the lub oil plate cooler and the full-flow automatic back-flushing luboilfilter.Thissolutioneliminatesexchangeoffiltercartridgesaswellas thewastedisposal problem.

Theback-flushoilisdrainedtothesump.Apurifieris to be connected to maintain proper condition of the lub oil.

An integrated thermostatic valve ensures a constant lub oil temperature to the engine.

Cooling water system

The cooling water system is based on separate low and high temperature systems.

Both circuits are cooled by fresh water.

HT system

The water is circulated by the HT pump through the firststageofthechargeaircooler,thejacketwatercollar, cylinder heads and thermostatic valve, through the high temperature cooler, back to the HT pump.

Nearly 100% of the heat removed from the hightemperature system can be utilized for heat recovery.

LT system

ThewateriscirculatedbytheLTpumpthroughthesecond stage of the charge air cooler, the lub oil coolers for engine and gearbox, the high tempera-ture cooler, through the central cooler and back to theLTpump.

Carbon dioxide CO2

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a product of combustion of all fossil fuels.

Among all internal combustion engines the diesel engine has the lowest specific CO2 emission based on the same fuel quality, due to its superior effi-ciency.

Sulphur oxides SOx

Sulphur oxides (SOx) are formed by the combustion of the sulphur contained in the fuel.

Among all propulsion systems the diesel process results in the lowest specific SOx emission based on the same fuel quality, due to its superior effi-ciency.

Nitrogen oxides NOx (NO + NO2)

The high temperatures prevailing in the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine causes the chemical reaction of nitrogen (contained in the combustion air as well as in some fuel grades) and oxygen (contained in the combustion air) to nitro-gen oxides (NOx).

Carbon monoxide CO

Carbon monoxide (CO) is formed during incom-plete combustion.

In MAN Diesel & Turbo four-stroke diesel engines, optimisation of mixture formation and turbocharg-ing process successfully reduces the CO content of the exhaust gas to a very low level.

Hydrocarbons HC

The hydrocarbons (HC) contained in the exhaust gas are composed of a multitude of various organic compounds as a result of incomplete combustion. Due to the efficient combustion process, the HC content of exhaust gas of MAN Diesel & Turbo four-stroke diesel engines is at a very low level.

Particulate Matter PM

Particulate matter (PM) consists of soot (elemental carbon) and ash.

MAN Diesel & Turbo

Cooling Water System

The engine is designed for freshwater cooling only. Therefore the cooling water system has to be ar-ranged as a centralised or closed cooling water system. All recommendable types are described in the following.

The engine design is almost pipeless, i.e. the water flows through internal cavities inside the front-end box and the cylinder units. The front-end box contains all large pipe connections. On the aft-end, the water to the gear oil cooler has to be connected by the yard.

The engine is equipped with built-on freshwater pumps for both the high and low temperature cool-ing water systems. To facilitate automatic start-up of stand-by pumps, non-return valves are standard.

Thermostatic valve elements, which control the high and low temperature cooling water system, are also integrated parts of the front-end box.

In case the HT cooler as alternative is a part of the LT cooling water system the LT thermostatic valves are to be replaced by “dummies” inside the front-end box and an external thermostatic valve housing is required to be placed in the LT circuit just after the HT freshwater cooler.

The engine is equipped with a two stage charge air cooler. The first stage is placed in the high temperature cooling water system. The charging air temperature after the turbocharger is at its maximum, making a higher degree of heat recovery possible, when the heat is dissipated to the high temperature cooling water.

The second stage of the charge air cooler is placed in the low temperature system.

It will cool the charging air further down before enter-ing the combustion chamber.

For special applications i.e. sailing in arctic waters with low air temperatures and direct air intake from deck, a regulating system can be applied to control the water flow to the second stage of the charge air cooler in order to increase the charging air tempera-ture, at low load.

Water Quality

The fresh water used as coolant, should be as clean as possible.

The pH value should be between 6.5 and 8 at 20°C.

The total hardness of the water must be max 10°dH (German hardness degrees). If the hardness is higher, the water should be diluted with some soft water.

The contents of chlorine, chloride, silicate and sulphate must be as low as possible and must not exceed the following values:

Chlorine: 10 PPM

Chloride: 50 PPM

Silicate: 150PPM

Sulphate: 100PPM

The fresh water must be treated with additives in or-der to reduce the risk of corrosion in the engine. Anti corrosive agents are not included in our usual scope of supply. The freshwater cooling system should be treated prior to carrying out sea trials.

There are two basic types of chemical additives:

· Chromate base

· Nitrite base or similar

Additives of chromate base are often considered to be more effective, but we advise against using them due to their extreme poisonousness and they are not permitted if a freshwater generator is incorporated in the plant.

For information on additives recommended by us, please refer to “Cooling water inhibitors”, which can be forwarded on request.

New engines, supplied by us are cleaned and ni-trated. Providing the freshwater inhibiting is correctly maintained then future cleaning of the system should hardly be necessary. However if it should be required, we would be pleased to assist with recommendations for degreasing, de-scaling with acid and inhibiting.

Fig 6.5 Pump characteristic

Fig 6.6 Necessary water flow

The pumps in parallel, layout point 2 see fig 6.5, are as standard designed to fulfil:

Capacity: Determined by the cooler manufacturer. Approx 100 - 175% of fresh water flow

in the cooler, depending on the central cooler.

Pressure: 1.8 - 2.0 bar Sea water temperature: Max 32°C

The volume of sea water required to circulate through a known sized cooler to remove a known amount of heat, is very sensitive and dependent on the sea water temperature.

The relation between sea water temperature and the necessary water flow in the central cooler is shown in fig 6.6.

Depending on the actual characteristic of the system resistance curve and the pump characteristic curve, the sea water flow with only one pump in service will be approx 75%. This means that the cooling capacity can be obtained with only one pump until reaching a sea water temperature of approx 30°C.

The back pressure in single pump operation must be observed as a low back pressure may lead to unfavourable operation and cavitation of impeller. We are pleased to advise on more specific ques-tions concerning the layout of pumps and location of orifices, etc.

Central Cooler(s), Item 18

If we are to supply the central cooler(s), it will be a plate cooler with titanium plates.

Design data:Heat transfer: See planning data Pressure drop LT: Max 0.5 barPressure drop SW: Max 0.5 bar standard Max 1.0 bar if HT cooler is in LT system

Two Central Coolers in Parallel

For an extra investment of 20-25% for the central cooler a much greater safety margin can be achieved by installing two central coolers each of 50% required capacity, operating in parallel instead of one cooler at 100% capacity.

With such flexibility it is possible to carry out repair and maintenance during a voyage especially in tem-perate climates where the sea water temperature is below the design temperature.

LT Freshwater Pump, Item 10

The built-on low temperature pump is of the cen-trifugal type. The maximum back pressure in the low temperature section with clean cooler must not exceed 2.5 bar.

For multi engine installations with a common cen-tralised cooling water system the built-on pumps should be replaced with common electrically driven pumps for full flow.

Design data: See planning data

LT Stand-by Pump, Item 11

The stand-by pumps should be of the centrifugal type.

Design data:Capacity: See planning data, for the built-on freshwater pump Pressure: See planning data, for the built-on freshwater pump

HT Sea Water Cooler, Item 37

The HT sea water cooler will be a plate cooler in titanium as standard.

Design data:Heat transfer: See planning data Pressure drop HT: Max 0.5 bar Pressure drop SW: Max 0.5 bar

HT Fresh Water Cooler (Option)

The HT cooler can as an alternative be installed as a part of the LT cooling water system. This will require a separate thermostatic valve for the LT cooling water system.

The HT freshwater cooler will be a plate cooler in stainless steel.

Design data:Heat transfer: See planning data Pressure drop HT: Max 0.5 bar Pressure drop LT: Max 0.5 bar

LT Thermostatic Valve, Item 17

The temperature of the LT cooling water to the charge air cooler is normally controlled by thermostatic valve elements of the expanding agent type.

The function of the thermostatic valve is to maintain the outlet temperature of the low temperature water within 29°C to 41°C depending on operating condi-tions, by re-circulating the water to the suction of the pump or let it in through the central cooler (item 18).

The re-circulated water is led directly to the suction side of the built-on pumps.

Expansion Tanks, Items 29 and 49

Separate expansion tanks for the LT and HT system should be installed to accommodate for changes of volume due to varying temperatures and possible leakage in the LT and HT systems. The separated HT and LT systems facilitates trouble shooting.

The minimum water level in the expansion tank should be no less than 6 m above the centre line of the crankshaft. This will ensure sufficient suction head to the freshwater pump and reduce the possibility of cavitation, as well as local “hot spots” in the engine.

The expansion tank should be equipped with a vent pipe and flange for filling the tank with water and inhibitors.

The vent pipe should be installed below the minimum water level to reduce oxidation of the cooling water due to splashing from the vent pipe.

Volume: Min 10% of water volume, however, min 100 litres.

HT Stand-by Pump, Item 31

The stand-by pumps should be of the centrifugal type.

Design data:Capacity: See planning data, for the built-on freshwater pump Pressure: See planning data, for the built-on freshwater pump Temperature: Max 95°C

Circulating Pump for Preheater, Item 38

For preheating the engine a pump should be installed to circulate high temperature cooling water trough the preheater.

Design data:Capacity: m = m3/h

Q: Heat radiation from engine in kW, see below Cp: Specific heat for water 4.187 kJ/kg°C t: The desired temperature drop across engine = 5°CPressure: Max 2 barTemperature: Max 85°C

Preheater, Item 39

The engine must be fitted with preheating facilities. Preheating is required to avoid producing unneces-sary shock loads that may arise as a result of tem-perature differences if the engine is started from cold.

Design data:Preheating temperature MDO engine: Min 40°C Preheating temperature HFO engine: 60-70°C

The heating power required for electrical preheating is stated below:

The figures are based on raising the engine tempera-ture to 40°C (20-60°C) for a period of 10 hours includ-ing the cooling water contained within the engine.

We will be pleased to make calculations for other conditions on request.

The preheater can be of the electrical type. If suf-ficient central heating capacity is available, a plate type heat exchanger can be installed. It is important that the inhibited fresh water, used in the main en-gine cooling system, is not mixed with water from the central heating system.

Thermostatic Valve for Heat Recovery, Item 34

If the heat recovery is below 25% of the heat rejection from engine jacket water the heat recovery equip-ment (item 35) can be connected in series with the HT freshwater cooler.

By utilisation of more than 25% of the heat in the HT cooling water section, an additional thermostatic valve, item 34, should be installed for bypassing of the HT fresh water cooler thus avoiding unnecessary cooling after the heat recovery equipment (item 35).

Connection of Heat Recovery or Freshwater Generator

By layout of the freshwater generator we recommend that no more than 90% of the heat available at MCR is utilised due to safety margins, part load operation and deviations in ambient conditions.

The expected obtainable freshwater production using a normal generator of the single vacuum evaporator type can be estimated.

Different Arrangements of Central Cooling Systems

There are many variations of centralised cooling systems and we are available to discuss various changes to suit an owner’s or builder’s specific wishes.

For each plant, special consideration should be given to the following design criteria: Sea water temperatures, pressure loss in coolers, valves and pipes, pump capacities etc, for which reason these components have not been specified in this guide.

Closed Cooling Systems

Several systems have been developed to avoid sea water. The benefits are: · Minimising the use of expensive corrosion

resistant pipes, valves and pumps · Sea water pumps at reasonable costs · No cleaning of plate type central heat exchang-

ers

Such systems are advantageous in the following conditions: · Sailing in shallow waters · Sailing in very cold waters · Sailing in corrosive waters (e.g. some harbours) · Sailing in water with high contents of solids

(dredging and some rivers)

A disadvantage of most closed cooling water systems is the poor heat transfer coefficient.

LT coolers with very small temperature differences between the cooling water and the sea or raw water, require a relatively large heat exchanger to enable sufficient heat transfer.

The 27/38 engine is a high efficient main engine calling for high efficient coolers. Therefore some designs cannot be recommended.

We are available to offer advice for specific cooler types, but the final responsibility for design, pressure losses, strength and system maintenance remains with the yard and the ship owner. We reserve the right not to accept proposed coolers, which seems to be insufficient for its purpose.

Also when using other types of closed cooling water systems the HT and LT cooling water systems have to be separated.

Fig 6.7 Box cooling diagram

Box Cooler

The box cooling system has through many years proven to be a reliable closed cooling water system. The box cooler is a pre-manufactured tube bundle for mounting in a sea chest.

The movement of the sea water across the heat ex-changer is initiated by the movement of the heated sea water upwards because of the lower density compared with that of the surrounding water. This means that the heat transfer is less dependant on the ship’s speed, compared to coolers mounted on the shell of the vessel. However the speed of the vessel does have some influence on the cooling area. For vessels sailing at below 3 knots at MCR, i.e. tugs, dredgers etc, the speed has to be considered when designing the cooler.

The temperature of the sea water has influence on the heat exchanger efficiency as well. We recom-mend that a temperature of 25°C or 32°C is used, depending on the vessel’s operating area.

The tube bundle is normally of corrosion resistant material with a non-metallic coating. The coating protects the vessel from galvanic corrosion between the sea chest and the box cooler. Uncoated coolers may be used, but special consideration has to be given to the galvanic separation of the box cooler and the hull. In waters with mussels and shell fish these might want to live on the tube bundle, which the different box cooler manufacturers have different solutions to avoid.

If the box cooler is supplied by us, it consists of a steel frame for welding to the hull, a tube bundle and a topbox, delivered complete with counter flanges, gaskets and bolts.

Design data:Heat transfer: See planning data Pressure dropthrough all coolers: Max 0.5 bar Min vesselspeed at MCR: Normally more than 3 knots

Other cooler types

Some traditional, low efficient coolers fitted to the hull and often referred to as keel cooling, skin cooling or tank cooling is not recommended for the L27/38 engine. The layout of such coolers is difficult and changes due to lack of efficiency is very complicated and expensive. The low temperature difference be-tween the sea water and the LT cooling water results in a very big cooling water surface. Depending on the design of the cooler, the waterflow around the hull and to the propeller will be disturbed, causing increased hull resistance and lower speed for the same power.

Cooling water systemCleaning

SummaryRemove contamination/residue from operating fluid systems, ensure/re-establish operating reliability.

Cooling water systems containing deposits or contamination prevent effec-tive cooling of parts. Contamination and deposits must be regularly elimina-ted.This comprises the following:Cleaning the system and, if required,removal of limescale deposits,flushing the system.

CleaningThe cooling water system must be checked for contamination at regularintervals. Cleaning is required if the degree of contamination is high. Thiswork should ideally be carried out by a specialist who can provide the rightcleaning agents for the type of deposits and materials in the cooling circuit.The cleaning should only be carried out by the engine operator if this cannotbe done by a specialist.

Oil sludge from lubricating oil that has entered the cooling system or a highconcentration of anticorrosive agents can be removed by flushing the systemwith fresh water to which some cleaning agent has been added. Suitablecleaning agents are listed alphabetically in the table entitled "Cleaning agentsfor removing oil sludge". Products by other manufacturers can be used pro-viding they have similar properties. The manufacturer's instructions for usemust be strictly observed.

Table 1: Cleaning agents for removing oil sludge

Lime and rust deposits can form if the water is especially hard or if the con-centration of the anticorrosive agent is too low. A thin lime scale layer can beleft on the surface as experience has shown that this protects against corro-sion. However, limescale deposits with a thickness of more than 0.5 mmobstruct the transfer of heat and cause thermal overloading of the compo-nents being cooled.

Rust that has been flushed out may have an abrasive effect on other parts ofthe system, such as the sealing elements of the water pumps. Together withthe elements that are responsible for water hardness, this forms what isknown as ferrous sludge which tends to gather in areas where the flowvelocity is low.

Products that remove limescale deposits are generally suitable for removingrust. Suitable cleaning agents are listed alphabetically in the table entitled"Cleaning agents for removing lime scale and rust deposits". Products by

Table 2: Cleaning agents for removing limescale and rust deposits

Hydrochloric acid diluted in water or aminosulphonic acid may only be usedin exceptional cases if a special cleaning agent that removes limescaledeposits without causing problems is not available. Observe the followingduring application:

▪ Stainless steel heat exchangers must never be treated using dilutedhydrochloric acid.

▪ Cooling systems containing non-ferrous metals (aluminium, red bronze,brass, etc.) must be treated with deactivated aminosulphonic acid. Thisacid should be added to water in a concentration of 3 - 5 %. The tem-perature of the solution should be 40 - 50 °C.

▪ Diluted hydrochloric acid may only be used to clean steel pipes. If hydro-chloric acid is used as the cleaning agent, there is always a danger thatacid will remain in the system, even when the system has been neutral-ised and flushed. This residual acid promotes pitting. We therefore rec-ommend you have the cleaning carried out by a specialist.

The carbon dioxide bubbles that form when limescale deposits are dissolvedcan prevent the cleaning agent from reaching boiler scale. It is thereforeabsolutely necessary to circulate the water with the cleaning agent to flushaway the gas bubbles and allow them to escape. The length of the cleaningprocess depends on the thickness and composition of the deposits. Valuesare provided for orientation in the table entitled "Detergents for removing limescale and rust deposits“.

The cooling system must be flushed several times once it has been cleanedusing cleaning agents. Replace the water during this process. If acids areused to carry out the cleaning, neutralise the cooling system afterwards withsuitable chemicals then flush. The system can then be refilled with water thathas been prepared accordingly.

Only carry out the cleaning operation once the engine hascooled downStart the cleaning operation only when the engine has cooled down.Hot engine components must not come into contact with cold water.Open the venting pipes before refilling the cooling water system.Blocked venting pipes prevent air from escaping which can lead tothermal overloading of the engine.

Engine cooling water specifications

Preliminary remarksAs is also the case with the fuel and lubricating oil, the engine cooling watermust be carefully selected, handled and checked. If this is not the case, cor-rosion, erosion and cavitation may occur at the walls of the cooling system incontact with water and deposits may form. Deposits obstruct the transfer ofheat and can cause thermal overloading of the cooled parts. The systemmust be treated with an anticorrosive agent before bringing it into operationfor the first time. The concentrations prescribed by the engine manufacturermust always be observed during subsequent operation. The above especiallyapplies if a chemical additive is added.

RequirementsThe properties of untreated cooling water must correspond to the followinglimit values:

The MAN Diesel water testing equipment incorporates devices that deter-mine the water properties referred to above in a straightforward manner. Themanufacturers of anticorrosive agents also supply user-friendly testing equip-ment. For information on monitoring cooling water, refer to Work Card000.07.

Additional informationIf distilled water (from a fresh water generator, for example) or fully desalina-ted water (from ion exchange or reverse osmosis) is available, this shouldideally be used as the engine cooling water. These waters are free of limeand salts which means that deposits that could interfere with the transfer ofheat to the cooling water, and therefore also reduce the cooling effect, can-not form. However, these waters are more corrosive than normal hard wateras the thin film of lime scale that would otherwise provide temporary corro-sion protection does not form on the walls. This is why distilled water mustbe handled particularly carefully and the concentration of the additive mustbe regularly checked.

The total hardness of the water is the combined effect of the temporary andpermanent hardness. The proportion of calcium and magnesium salts is ofoverriding importance. The temporary hardness is determined by the carbo-nate content of the calcium and magnesium salts. The permanent hardnessis determined by the amount of remaining calcium and magnesium salts (sul-phates). The temporary (carbonate) hardness is the critical factor that deter-mines the extent of limescale deposit in the cooling system.

Water with a total hardness of > 10°dGH must be mixed with distilled wateror softened. Subsequent hardening of extremely soft water is only necessaryto prevent foaming if emulsifiable slushing oils are used.

Damage to the cooling water systemCorrosion is an electrochemical process that can widely be avoided byselecting the correct water quality and by carefully handling the water in theengine cooling system.

Flow cavitation can occur in areas in which high flow velocities and high tur-bulence is present. If the steam pressure is reached, steam bubbles formand subsequently collapse in high pressure zones which causes the destruc-tion of materials in constricted areas.

Erosion is a mechanical process accompanied by material abrasion and thedestruction of protective films by solids that have been drawn in, particularlyin areas with high flow velocities or strong turbulence.

Stress corrosion cracking is a failure mechanism that occurs as a result ofsimultaneous dynamic and corrosive stress. This may lead to cracking andrapid crack propagation in water-cooled, mechanically-loaded components ifthe cooling water has not been treated correctly.

Processing of engine cooling waterThe purpose of treating the engine cooling water using anticorrosive agentsis to produce a continuous protective film on the walls of cooling surfacesand therefore prevent the damage referred to above. In order for an anticor-rosive agent to be 100 % effective, it is extremely important that untreatedwater satisfies the requirements in the Section Requirements.

Protective films can be formed by treating the cooling water with an anticor-rosive chemical or an emulsifiable slushing oil.

Emulsifiable slushing oils are used less and less frequently as their use hasbeen considerably restricted by environmental protection regulations, andbecause they are rarely available from suppliers for this and other reasons.

Treatment with an anticorrosive agent should be carried out before theengine is brought into operation for the first time to prevent irreparable initialdamage.

Treatment of the cooling waterThe engine must not be brought into operation without treating thecooling water first.

Additives for cooling waterOnly the additives approved by MAN Diesel and listed in the tables under thesection entitled "Approved cooling water additives“ may be used.

A cooling water additive may only be permitted for use if tested andapproved as per the latest directives of the ICE Research Association (FVV)"Suitability test of internal combustion engine cooling fluid additives.” The testreport must be obtainable on request. The relevant tests can be carried outon request in Germany at the staatliche Materialprüfanstalt (Federal Institutefor Materials Research and Testing), Abteilung Oberflächentechnik (SurfaceTechnology Division), Grafenstraße 2 in D-64283 Darmstadt.

Once the cooling water additive has been tested by the FVV, the enginemust be tested in the second step before the final approval is granted.

Additives may only be used in closed circuits where no significant consump-tion occurs, apart from leaks or evaporation losses.

Chemical additivesSodium nitrite and sodium borate based additives etc. have a proven trackrecord. Galvanised iron pipes or zinc sacrificial anodes must not be used incooling systems. This corrosion protection is not required due to the prescri-bed cooling water treatment and electrochemical potential reversal can occurdue to the cooling water temperatures which are normally present in enginesnowadays. If necessary, the pipes must be deplated.

Slushing oilThis additive is an emulsifiable mineral oil with added slushing ingredients. Athin film of oil forms on the walls of the cooling system. This prevents corro-sion without interfering with the transfer of heat and also prevents limescaledeposits on the walls of the cooling system.

The significance of emulsifiable corrosion-slushing oils is fading. Oil-basedemulsions are rarely used nowadays for environmental protection reasonsand also because stability problems are known to occur in emulsions.

Anti-freeze agentsIf temperatures below the freezing point of water in the engine cannot beexcluded, an anti-freeze solution that also prevents corrosion must be addedto the cooling system or corresponding parts. Otherwise, the entire systemmust be heated. (Military specification: Sy-7025).

Sufficient corrosion protection can be provided by adding the products listedin the table entitled "Anti-freeze solutions with slushing properties" whileobserving the prescribed concentration. This concentration prevents freezingat temperatures down to -22 °C. However, the quantity of anti-freeze solu-tion actually required always depends on the lowest temperatures that are tobe expected at the place of use.

Anti- freezes are generally based on ethylene glycol. A suitable chemical anti-corrosive agent must be added if the concentration of the anti-freeze solutionprescribed by the user for a specific application does not provide an appro-priate level of corrosion protection, or if the concentration of anti-freeze solu-tion used is lower due to less stringent frost protection requirements anddoes not provide an appropriate level of corrosion protection.

and the required concentrations, contact the manufacturer. As regards thechemical additives indicated in the table „Nitrite-Containing Chemical Addi-tives“, their compatibility with ethylene glycol-based antifreezes has beenproved. Anti-freeze solutions may only be mixed with one another with theconsent of the manufacturer, even if these solutions have the same composi-tion.

Before an anti-freeze solution is used, the cooling system must be thoroughlycleaned.

If the cooling water contains an emulsifiable slushing oil, anti-freeze solutionmust not be added as otherwise the emulsion would break up and oil sludgewould form in the cooling system.

Observe the applicable environmental protection regulations when disposingof cooling water containing additives. For more information, consult the addi-tive supplier.

BiocidesIf you cannot avoid using a biocide because the cooling water has been con-taminated by bacteria, observe the following steps:

▪ You must ensure that the biocide to be used is suitable for the specificapplication.

▪ The biocide must be compatible with the sealing materials used in thecooling water system and must not react with these.

▪ The biocide and its decomposition products must not contain corrosion-promoting components. Biocides whose decomposition products con-tain chloride or sulphate ions are not permitted.

▪ Biocides that cause foaming of cooling water are not permitted.

Prerequisite for effective use of an anticorrosive agent

Clean cooling systemAs contamination significantly reduces the effectiveness of the additive, thetanks, pipes, coolers and other parts outside the engine must be free of rustand other deposits before the engine is started up for the first time and afterrepairs are carried out on the pipe system. The entire system must thereforebe cleaned with the engine switched off using a suitable cleaning agent (seeWork Cards 000.03 and 000.08 by MAN Diesel).

Loose solid matter in particular must be removed by flushing the systemthoroughly as otherwise erosion may occur in locations where the flow veloc-ity is high.

The cleaning agents must not corrode the seals and materials of the coolingsystem. In most cases, the supplier of the cooling water additive will be ableto carry out this work and, if this is not possible, will at least be able to pro-vide suitable products to do this. If this work is carried out by the engineoperator, he should use the services of a specialist supplier of cleaningagents. The cooling system must be flushed thoroughly following cleaning.Once this has been done, the engine cooling water must be treated immedi-ately with anticorrosive agent. Once the engine has been brought back intooperation, the cleaned system must be checked for leaks.

Regular checks of the cooling water condition and cooling watersystemTreated cooling water may become contaminated when the engine is inoperation, which causes the additive to loose some of its effectiveness. It istherefore advisable to regularly check the cooling system and the coolingwater condition. To determine leakages in the lube oil system, it is advisableto carry out regular checks of water in the compensating tank. Indications ofoil content in water are, e.g. discoloration or a visible oil film on the surface ofthe water sample.

The additive concentration must be checked at least once a week using thetest kits specified by the manufacturer. The results must be documented.

Concentrations of chemical additivesThe chemical additive concentrations shall not be less than theminimum concentrations indicated in the table „Nitrite-containingchemical additives“.

Excessively low concentrations can promote corrosion and must be avoided.If the concentration is slightly above the recommended concentration this willnot result in damage. Concentrations that are more than twice the recom-mended concentration should be avoided.

Every 2 to 6 months send a cooling water sample to an independent labora-tory or to the engine manufacturer for integrated analysis.

Emulsifiable anticorrosive agents must generally be replaced after abt. 12months according to the supplier's instructions. When carrying this out, theentire cooling system must be flushed and, if necessary, cleaned. Once filledinto the system, fresh water must be treated immediately.

If chemical additives or anti-freeze solutions are used, cooling water shouldbe replaced after 3 years at the latest.

If there is a high concentration of solids (rust) in the system, the water mustbe completely replaced and entire system carefully cleaned.

Deposits in the cooling system may be caused by fluids that enter the cool-ing water, or the break up of emulsion, corrosion in the system and limescaledeposits if the water is very hard. If the concentration of chloride ions hasincreased, this generally indicates that seawater has entered the system. Themaximum specified concentration of 50 mg chloride ions per kg must not beexceeded as otherwise the risk of corrosion is too high. If exhaust gas entersthe cooling water, this may lead to a sudden drop in the pH value or to anincrease in the sulphate content.

Water losses must be compensated for by filling with untreated water thatmeets the quality requirements specified in the section Requirements. Theconcentration of the anticorrosive agent must subsequently be checked andadjusted if necessary.

Subsequent checks of cooling water are especially required if the coolingwater had to be drained off in order to carry out repairs or maintenance.

Protective measuresAnticorrosive agents contain chemical compounds that can pose a risk tohealth or the environment if incorrectly used. Comply with the directions inthe manufacturer's material safety data sheets.

Avoid prolonged direct contact with the skin. Wash hands thoroughly afteruse. If larger quantities spray and/or soak into clothing, remove and washclothing before wearing it again.

If chemicals come into contact with your eyes, rinse them immediately withplenty of water and seek medical advice.

Anticorrosive agents are generally harmful to the water cycle. Observe therelevant statutory requirements for disposal.

Auxiliary enginesIf the same cooling water system used in a MAN Diesel & Turbo two-strokemain engine is used in a marine engine of type 16/24, 21/ 31, 23/30H, 27/38or 28/32H, the cooling water recommendations for the main engine must beobserved.

AnalysisWe analyse cooling water for our customers in our chemical laboratory. A 0.5l sample is required for the test.

1690751-3.0Page 1 (1) 1400000Engine ventilation

The air intake to the engine room should be dimen-sioned in such a way that a sufficient quantity of air is available not only for the main engine, auxiliaries, boilers etc, but also to ensure adequate ventilation and fresh air when work and service are in progress.

We recommend the ventilation capacity should be min 50% more than required air consumption (in tropical conditions more than 100% should be considered) for main engine, auxiliaries, boilers etc.

It is important that the air is free of oil and sea water to prevent fouling of the ventilators and filters.

The air consumption of the main engine appears from the planning data.

Approx 50% of the ventilating air should be blown in at the level of the top of the main engine close to the air inlet of the turbocharger. Air should not be blown directly onto heat emitting components or directly onto electric or other water sensitive apparature.

A small airflow should be evenly distributed around the engine and reduction gear in order to dissipate radiated heat.

With closed engine room and all air consuming equip-ment operating, there should always be positive air pressure in the engine room.

Surplus air should be led up through the casing via special exhaust openings. Alternatively extraction fans should be installed.

Fire arresting facilities must be installed within the casings of the fans and ventilation trunkings to retard the propagation of fire.

Fuel oil system

General

The engine can be equipped with different equipment depending on fuel oil quality.The standard engine, for operation on MDO (Marine Diesel Oil), is equipped with built-on:

Fuel oil primary pump Double filter with paper inserts Lubrication of fuel oil pumps Fuel oil pumps with leak oil seal Uncooled fuel injection valves

The MDO built-on equipment is designed for single engine installation. For multi engine installations it is recommended to have either two separate fuel supplies or the built-on pumps have to be replaced by electrical pumps.

The standard engine, for operation on HFO (Heavy Fuel Oil), is equipped with built-on:

Fuel oil duplex filter Fuel oil back pressure valve Lubrication of fuel oil pumps Fuel oil pumps without leak oil seal Uncooled fuel injection valves Equipment for cleaning of turbocharger turbine side during operation

The built-on equipment is designed for use of fuel oil modules, normally referred to as booster modules. For multi engine installations a common fuel oil feed system should cover all engines.

Fuel oil quality

We recommend to use heavy fuel up to 380 cSt/50oC,

even though the engine is designed for operation on HFO up to 700 cSt/50

o C, depending on the actual

fuel quality.

For fuel oil quality, see Quality Requirements 1435000.

The maximum injection viscosity is 12-14 cSt.

Velocity recommendations for fuel oil pipes:

Marine Diesel Oil: Suction pipe: 0.5 - 1.0m/s Delivery pipe: 1.5 - 2.0 m/s

Heavy Fuel Oil: Suction pipe: 0.3 - 0.8 m/s Delivery pipe: 0.8 - 1.2 m/s

All data provided in the attached document is non-binding. This data serves informational purposes only and is especially not guaranteed in any way. Depend-ing on the subsequent specific individual projects, the relevant data may be subject to changes and will be assessed and determined individually for each project. This will depend on the particular characteristics of each individual project, especially specific site and operational conditions.

In accordance to ISO-Standard ISO 3046-1:2002 “Reciprocating internal combustion engines – Per-formance, Part 1: Declarations of power, fuel and lubricating oil consumptions, and test methods – Additional requirements for engines for general use” MAN Diesel & Turbo specifies the method for recalculation of fuel consumption dependent on ambient conditions for 1-stage turbocharged en-gines as follows:

The formula is valid within the following limits:

+ Ambient air temperature 5° C – 55° C

+ Charge air temperature before cylinder 25° C – 75° C

+ Ambient air pressure 0.885 bar – 1.030 bar

ß Fuel consumption factor

tbar Engine type specific reference charge air temperature before cylinder see »Reference conditions« in »Fuel oil consumption for emissions standard«.

Legend Reference At test run or at site

Specific fuel consumption [g/kWh] br bx

Ambient air temperature [°C] tr tx

Charge air temperature before cylinder [°C] tbar tbax

Ambient air pressure [bar] pr px

Example

Reference values:

br = 200 g/kWh, tr = 25° C, tbar = 40° C, pr = 1.0 bar

At Site:

tx = 45° C, tbax = 50° C, px = 0.9 bar

ß = 1+ 0.0006 (45 – 25) + 0.0004 (50 – 40) + 0.07 (1.0 – 0.9) = 1.023

bx = ß x br = 1.023 x 200 = 204.6 g/kWh

ß = 1+ 0.0006 x (tx – tr) + 0.0004 x (tbax – tbar) + 0.07 x (pr – px)

bx = br x ß br =bx

For different net calorific value, the SFOC will be corrected in [%] by:Net calorific value NCV rise 427 kJ/kg - 1.0 %

Increased negative intake pressure before compressor leads to increased fuel oil consumption, calculated as increased air temperature before turbocharger:

U = ( -20 [mbar] – pAir before compressor [mbar] ) x 0.25 [K/mbar] with U ≥ 0

Increased exhaust gas back pressure after turbine leads to increased fuel oil consumption, calculated as increased air temperature before turbocharger:

O = ( pExhaust after turbine [mbar] – 30 [mbar] ) x 0.25 [K/mbar] with O ≥ 0

Charge air blow-off for exhaust gas temperature control (plants with catalyst) leads to increased fuel oil consumption:For every increase of the exhaust gas temperature by 1° C, due to activation of charge air blow-off device, an addition of 0.05 g/kWh to be considered.

Fuel oil system – MDO

Fuel oil storage

The storage and handling system comprises of bunker tanks, pipe systems and transfer systems.

Cleaning systems

The cleaning system normally comprises of a settling tank, pipe system and equipment for cleaning of the MDO prior to use in the engine.

The settling tank should be designed to provide the most efficient sludge and water separation. The tank should be provided with baffles to reduce mixing of sludge with the fuel. The bottom of the tank should have a slope toward the sludge drain valve(s), and the pump suction must not be in the vicinity of the sludge space.

We recommend that the capacity of a single set-tling tank is sufficient to ensure minimum 24 hours operation.

Prefilter, item 1

To protect the purifier pump (item 2), a prefilter should be inserted before the pump.

Design data:

Capacity: See oil pump, item 2Mesh size: 0.8 – 1.0 mm

Oil pump to purifier, item 2

The pump can be driven directly by the purifier or by an independent motor.

Design data:

Capacity: According to purifierPressure: Max 2.5 barTemperature: Max 40°C

L27/38

Purifier, item 3

For engines operating on MDO we recommend cleaning of the oil by a purifier to remove water. For the blended fuel oil (M3 in accordance to BS MA100 fuel oil specification) which can be ex-pected in some bunker places, the purifier is also an important cleaning device. We recommend the automatic self-cleaning type.

As a guideline for the selection of purifier, the fol-lowing formula can be used:

Design data:

Capacity: V = C × (24/T)

V: The nominal capacity of the purifier in litres/hourC: Consumption at MCR in litres/hourT: Daily separating time, depending on purifier (20-22 hours)

Guidance given by the manufacturer of the purifier must be observed.

If aux engines are fed from the same fuel oil sys-tem, the fuel oil consumption has to include all engines.

Pre-heating is normally not necessary, but a purify-ing temperature of approx 40°C is recommendedfor better separation. Some Marine Diesel Oils have a high content of “paraffin” which clogs up filters and can cause unintended engine stopping. To avoid this, preheating can be necessary.

A heat exchanger and a thermostatic valve using the main engine HT cooling water as heating media can be installed, if necessary.

Service tank, item 4

The service tank shall be dimensioned to contain purified MDO for operating minimum 4 hours at MCR.

Page 227: L2738 Manual

MAN Diesel & Turbo

Attention must be paid that the fuel oil inlet pipe is connected to the side of the tank in a position to avoid sludge and water contamination of the MDO.

A vent pipe from the tank should be led up to the deck level minimum 500 mm above the tank. Precaution should be taken that water does not enter the tank through the vent pipe.

To ensure satisfactory suction when starting up the main engine, the lowest oil level in the service tank should be at least 500 mm above the suction to the primary pump (item 8 in fig 6.1) and the stand-by primary pump.

Duplex suction filter, item 6

A duplex suction filter with magnetic inserts should be installed in the suction line of the fuel oil primary pump to protect the pump. The filter should be de-signed for the capacity of the built-on primary pump with a mesh size of 0.5-0.8 mm.

Stand-by primary pump, item 7

Design data:

Capacity: 4 × MCR consumptionPressure: 2.5 bar

Fuel oil consumption

For calculating the necessary tank size, purifier, stand-by pumps, etc, the consumption stated in the planning data, based on engine MCR, should be used.

These values include an addition for engine driven pumps plus 3% tolerance in accordance with ISO requirements.

Cooler requirements

Fuel oil temperatures before engine / fuel oil injec-tion pumps (MDO/MGO):

If the fuel oil temperature before engine / fuel injec-tion pumps exceeds 40° C or the viscosity is below 2.2 cSt a cooler must be built-in, in order to ensure the lub ricating properties for the injection pumps.

Notes

We recommend that the total pressure drop in the piping system is calculated in order to ensure that the pump capacity is sufficient and the flow velocity is as recommended by us.

We should be pleased to review your piping diagrams and give our comments and recommendations. The shipyard is responsible for the choice of method, design and execution.

Pressure regulating valve (item 20):The pressure regulating valve is to be adjusted to a pres-sure of 4 bar. The relief valve for booster pumps (items 16 and 16A) are adjusted to a pressure somewhat higher.

Fuel oil storage

The storage and handling system consists of bunker tanks, pipe systems and transfer systems.

Cleaning systems

The cleaning system normally comprises of a settling tank, pipe system and equipment for cleaning of the HFO prior to use in the engine.

Settling tank, item 1

The settling tanks should be designed to provide the most efficient sludge and water separation. Each tank should be provided with baffles to reduce mixing of sludge with the fuel. The bottom of the tank should be with a slope toward the sludge drain valve(s), and the pump suction must not be in the vicinity of the sludge space.

We recommend that the capacity of each settling tank should be sufficient to ensure minimum 24 hours operation.

The temperature of the oil settling tanks should be as high as possible to help the dirt to settle. The temperature should be below 5°C in order to avoid the formation of asphaltenes, and min 7°C above the pour point of the oil to ensure pumpability.

Prefilter, items 2 and 2A

To protect the separator pumps, items 3 and 3A, a prefilter should be inserted before the pumps.

Design data:

Design data:

Capacity: According to separatorPressure: Max 2.5 barTemperature: Max 70°C

Preheater before purifier and clarifier, items 4 and 4A

The preheater must be able to raise the temperature of the oil from approx 60°C to approx 98°C, which is the temperature of the oil for purifying.

Design data:

Capacity: P = v × t/1710

P: Capacity of the preheater in kWv: Flow through preheater in litres/hourt: Temperature difference approx 40°C (engine operating)

Max pressure: 4 barMax pressure loss: 0.5 bar

The specific load on heating surface for an electric preheater is recommended not to exceed 1.2 W/cm2.

Purifier/clarifier, items 5 and 6

For engines operating on HFO we recommend clean-ing of the fuel oil by a purifier and a clarifier to remove water and solids. For applications with separators acting as a clarifier and purifier at the same time, we recommend to have one separator as stand-by. We recommend the automatic self-cleaning type.

As a guideline for the selection of separators, the following formula can be used:

Design data:

Capacity: V = C × (24/T)

V: The nominal capacity of the separators in litres/hourC: Consumption at MCR in litres/hourT: Daily separating time, depending on purifier (20-22 hours)

Guidance given by the manufacturer of the sepera-tors must be observed.

If aux engines are supplied from the same fuel oil system, the fuel oil consumption has to include all engines.

HFO service tank, item 7

The service tank should be dimensioned to contain purified HFO for operating for at least 12 hours.

The tank must be insulated and the oil temperature in the tank should be kept at minimum 60 °C. Depend-ing on separating temperature and tank insulation the temperature may rise to above 90°C.

Attention must be paid that the fuel oil inlet pipe is connected to the side of the tank in a position to avoid sludge and water contamination of the HFO.

The feed from the service tank to the mixing pipe is to be connected in a suitable distance above the bottom of the service tank to avoid sludge and water contamination in the pipe.

A vent pipe from the tank should be led up to the deck level minimum 500 mm above the tank. Precaution should be taken that water does not enter the tank through the vent pipe.

Prefilters, items 8 and 8A

The pressure pumps (items 9 and 9A) must be pro-tected by prefilters.

Design data:

Capacity: See capacity for pressure pumpTemperature: Max 90°CMesh size: 0.8-1.0 mm

Pressure pumps, items 9 and 9A

The HFO system must be pressurised to avoid gas separation in the fuel oil piping. Pressurising is maintained by the pumps installed between the HFO service tank and the automatic filter.

Fuel oil system – HFO

L27/38

Design data:

Type: Screw or gear pump with relief valveCapacity: MCR consumption + flushing oilPressure: Max 4 barTemperature: Max 90°CViscosity at normal operation: Max 140 cSt (corresponding to 70°C)Viscosity for dimensioning of el–motor: 1000 cSt

Pressure regulating valve, item 14

The pressure regulating valve is to be adjusted to a pressure of approx 4 bar and the relief valve setting for supply pumps, items 9 and 9A, is adjusted to a higher pressure.

If the capacity of the pressure pumps (items 9 and 9A) exceeds the fuel oil consumption too much, or if the plant often operates at low load, the surplus oil by-passed by the pressure regulating valve has to be cooled down by a by-pass oil radiator, to avoid unintended heating of the fuel supply.

Automatic filter, item 10

An automatic filter should be installed between the supply pumps and the mixing pipe.

As the flow is limited to the consumption of the engine, a filter with 10 µm mesh size should be used in order to achieve optimal filtration. In case of malfunction of the filter, a manually cleaned by-pass filter has to be installed in parallel to the automatic filter.

Design data:

Capacity : MCR consumptionPressure : Normally 4 bar Max 8 barTemperature : Max 90°CMesh size : 10 µm absolute (main supply) 35 µm absolute (by-pass supply)

Fuel oil consumption measuring, item 11

For engines with pressurised HFO system a fuel consumption meter can be fitted between the auto-matic filter (item 10) and the mixing tank (item 12). A spring loaded valve has to be installed in parallel. In case of the measuring device, the valve will open and ensure fuel supply to the engine.

Mixing pipe, item 12

The main purpose of the mixing pipe is to ensure good ventilation of gas from the hot fuel oil.

Furthermore, the mixing pipe ensures a gradual temperature balance by mixing the hot returned oil from the engine with the oil from the daily service tank thereby reducing the heat requirements from the final preheater.

The mixing pipe should be dimensioned to contain fuel oil for 10-15 minutes operation at MCR load, and in any case not less than 50 litres.

Minimum diameter of mixing pipe: 200 mm.

Because the capacity of the fuel oil primary pump is higher than the consumption of the engine, the surplus oil from engine flange connection B4 must be returned to the mixing pipe and must be adequately insulated.

The flange connection B2 must be connected to a drain tank and not to the mixing pipe.

Prefilter, item 15

To protect the fuel oil circulation pumps a duplex prefilter is recommended between the mixing pipe (item 12) and the circulating pumps (items 16 and 16A).

The pressurised HFO system has a high degree of recirculation.

Design data (depending on fuel type):

Preheater, item 17

In order to heat the HFO to the proper viscosity before the injection valves (12±2 cSt), the oil is led through a preheater.

The temperature of the HFO is regulated by an auto-matic viscosity control unit to 85-150 °C (depending on the viscosity).

The specific load on heating surface for an electric preheater is recommended not to exceed 1.2 W/cm2.

Based on the minimum temperature of the oil from the HFO service tank to be 60 °C and because the fuel must be heated to temperatures indicated in the table below (corresponding to a viscosity of 12±2 cSt plus an addition of 5°C to compensate for heat loss before injection) the capacity of the preheater in kW should be minimum:

The above capacities include a safety margin of 15% but the necessary capacity depends on the actual fuel and condition. We will be pleased to carry out calculations for a specific condition on request.

Viscosity control equipment, item 18

This equipment is required for all types of fuel to ensure the optimum viscosity of approx 12±2 cSt at the inlet to the fuel injection pump. The viscosimetershould be of a design which is not affected by pres-sure peaks produced by the injection pumps. For efficient operation, the pipe length between the HFO preheater and the viscosity control equipment should be as short as possible (or in accordance with the manufacturer’s instruction).

The viscosity control equipment should be able to switch over to thermostatic control in case of mal-functioning.

General piping

Settling tank, service tank, and mixing pipe must be insulated. All pipes for heated oil must be insulated as well.

Fuel oil system – HFO

L27/38The fuel oil pipe system must be made of seamless precision steel tubes which can be assembled by means of either cutting ring or clamp ring fittings.

Fuel oil consumption

For calculating the necessary size of tank, separa-tors, stand-by pumps, etc, the consumption stated in the planning data, based on engine MCR, should be used.

The consumption includes an addition for engine driven pumps plus 5% tolerance in accordance with ISO requirements.

The conversion from kg/hour to litres/hour is based on a fuel with density of 950 kg/m3 for IF 80 and 980 kg/m3 for IF 380.

The low calorific heat value of the heavy fuel oil cor-responds to 40,225 kJ/kg.

The MDO treatment and feed system

The engine is designed for pier to pier operation on HFO. However, change-over to MDO might become necessary. For instance during:

Repair of engine and fuel oil system Docking More than 5 days stop Environmental legislation requiring use of low-sulphur fuels

The layout of MDO treatment and feed system should be in accordance with the recommendations for MDO.

Page 235: L2738 Manual

Heavy fuel oil (HFO) specification

PrerequisitesMAN four-stroke diesel engines can be operated with any heavy fuel oilobtained from crude oil that also satisfies the requirements in Table 1, pro-viding the engine and fuel processing system have been designed accord-ingly. To ensure that the relationship between the fuel, spare parts andrepair / maintenance costs remains favorable at all times, the following pointsshould be observed.

Heavy fuel oil (HFO)The quality of the heavy fuel oil largely depends on the quality of crude oiland on the refining process used. This is why the properties of heavy fuel oilswith the same viscosity may vary considerably depending on the bunkerpositions. Heavy fuel oil is normally a mixture of residual oil and distillates.The components of the mixture are normally obtained from modern refineryprocesses, such as Catcracker or Visbreaker. These processes canadversely affect the stability of the fuel as well as its ignition and combustionproperties. The processing of the heavy fuel oil and the operating result ofthe engine also depend heavily on these factors.

Bunker positions with standardised heavy fuel oil qualities should preferablybe used. If oils need to be purchased from independent dealers, also ensurethat these also comply with the international specifications. The engine oper-ator is responsible for ensuring that suitable heavy fuel oils are chosen.

Fuels intended for use in an engine must satisfy the specifications to ensuresufficient quality. The limit values for heavy fuel oils are specified in Table 1.The entries in the last column of Table 1 provide important background infor-mation and must therefore be observed.

Different international specifications exist for heavy fuel oils. The most impor-tant specifications are ISO 8217-2010 and CIMAC-2003, which are more orless identical. The ISO 8217 specification is shown in Fig. 1. All qualities inthese specifications up to K700 can be used, providing the fuel preparationsystem has been designed accordingly. To use any fuels, which do not com-ply with these specifications (e.g. crude oil), consultation with Technical Serv-ice of MAN Diesel & Turbo SE in Augsburg is required. Heavy fuel oils with amaximum density of 1,010 kg/m3 may only be used if up-to-date separatorsare installed.

Even though the fuel properties specified in the table entitled "The fuel speci-fication and corresponding properties for heavy fuel oil" satisfy the aboverequirements, they probably do not adequately define the ignition and com-bustion properties and the stability of the fuel. This means that the operatingbehaviour of the engine can depend on properties that are not defined in thespecification. This particularly applies to the oil property that causes forma-tion of deposits in the combustion chamber, injection system, gas ducts andexhaust gas system. A number of fuels have a tendency towards incompati-bility with lubricating oil which leads to deposits being formed in the fueldelivery pump that can block the pumps. It may therefore be necessary toexclude specific fuels that could cause problems.

The addition of engine oils (old lubricating oil, ULO –used lubricating oil) andadditives that are not manufactured from mineral oils, (coal-tar oil, for exam-ple), and residual products of chemical or other processes such as solvents

(polymers or chemical waste) is not permitted. Some of the reasons for thisare as follows: abrasive and corrosive effects, unfavourable combustioncharacteristics, poor compatibility with mineral oils and, last but not least,adverse effects on the environment. The order for the fuel must expresslystate what is not permitted as the fuel specifications that generally apply donot include this limitation.

If engine oils (old lubricating oil, ULO – used lubricating oil) are added to fuel,this poses a particular danger as the additives in the lubricating oil act asemulsifiers that cause dirt, water and catfines to be transported as fine sus-pension. They therefore prevent the necessary cleaning of the fuel. In ourexperience (and this has also been the experience of other manufacturers),this can severely damage the engine and turbocharger components.

The addition of chemical waste products (solvents, for example) to the fuel isprohibited for environmental protection reasons according to the resolutionof the IMO Marine Environment Protection Committee passed on 1st January1992.

Leak oil collectors that act as receptacles for leak oil, and also return andoverflow pipes in the lube oil system, must not be connected to the fuel tank.Leak oil lines should be emptied into sludge tanks.

Additional informationThe purpose of the following information is to show the relationship betweenthe quality of heavy fuel oil, heavy fuel oil processing, the engine operationand operating results more clearly.

Economic operation with heavy fuel oil within the limit values specified in thetable entitled "The fuel specification and corresponding properties for heavyfuel oil" is possible under normal operating conditions, provided the system isworking properly and regular maintenance is carried out. If these require-ments are not satisfied, shorter maintenance intervals, higher wear and agreater need for spare parts is to be expected. The required maintenanceintervals and operating results determine, which quality of heavy fuel oilshould be used.

It is an established fact that the price advantage decreases as viscosityincreases. It is therefore not always economical to use the fuel with the high-est viscosity as in many cases the quality of this fuel will not be the best.

Heavy fuel oils with a high viscosity may be of an inferior quality. The maxi-mum permissible viscosity depends on the preheating system installed andthe capacity (flow rate) of the separator.

The prescribed injection viscosity of 12 - 14 mm2/s (for GenSets, 23/30H and28/32H: 12 - 18 cSt) and corresponding fuel temperature upstream of theengine must be observed. This is the only way to ensure efficient atomisationand mixture formation and therefore low-residue combustion. This also pre-vents mechanical overloading of the injection system. For the prescribedinjection viscosity and/or the required fuel oil temperature upstream of theengine, refer to the viscosity temperature diagram.

Whether or not problems occur with the engine in operation depends on howcarefully the heavy fuel oil has been processed. Particular care should betaken to ensure that highly-abrasive inorganic foreign matter (catalyst parti-cles, rust, sand) are effectively removed. It has been shown in practice thatwear as a result of abrasion in the engine increases considerably if the alumi-num and silicium content is higher than 15 mg/kg.

Viscosity and density influence the cleaning effect. This must be taken intoaccount when designing and making adjustments to the cleaning system.

Heavy fuel oil is precleaned in the settling tank. The longer the fuel remains inthe tank and the lower the viscosity of heavy fuel oil is, the more effective theprecleaning process will be (maximum preheating temperature of 75 °C toprevent the formation of asphalt in heavy fuel oil). A settling tank is sufficientfor heavy fuel oils with a viscosity of less than 3802/s at 50 °C. If the heavyfuel oil has a high concentration of foreign matter, or if fuels in accordancewith ISO-F-RM, G/H/K380 or H/K700 are to be used, two settling tanks willbe required one of which must be sized for 24-hour operation. Before thecontent is moved to the service tank, water and sludge must be drained fromthe settling tank.

A separator is particularly suitable for separating material with a higher spe-cific density – water, foreign matter and sludge, for example. The separatorsmust be self-cleaning (i.e. the cleaning intervals must be triggered automati-cally).

Only new generation separators should be used. They are extremely effectivethroughout a wide density range with no changeover required, and can sep-arate water from heavy fuel oils with a density of up to 1.01 g/ml at 15 °C.

Table "Achievable proportion of foreign matter and water (following separa-tion)" shows the prerequisites that must be met by the separator. These limitvalues are used by manufacturers as the basis for dimensioning the separa-tor and ensure compliance.

The manufacturer's specifications must be complied with to maximize thecleaning effect.

Figure 3: Location of heavy fuel oil cleaning equipment and/or separator

The separators must be arranged according to the manufacturers' currentrecommendations (Alpha Laval and Westfalia). The density and viscosity ofthe heavy fuel oil in particular must be taken into account. If separators byother manufacturers are used, MAN Diesel should be consulted.

If processing is carried out in accordance with the MAN Diesel specificationsand the correct separators are chosen, it may be assumed that the resultsstated in the table entitled "Achievable proportion of foreign matter andwater" for inorganic foreign matter and water in the heavy fuel oil will be ach-ieved at the engine inlet.

Results obtained during operation in practiсe show that the wear occurs as aresult of abrasion in the injection system and the engine will remain withinacceptable limits if these values are complied with. In addition, an optimumlubricating oil treatment process must be ensured.

It is particularly important to ensure that the water separation process is asthorough as possible as the water takes the form of large droplets, and not afinely distributed emulsion. In this form, water also promotes corrosion andsludge formation in the fuel system and therefore impairs the supply, atomi-sation and combustion of the heavy fuel oil. If the water absorbed in the fuelis seawater, harmful sodium chloride and other salts dissolved in this waterwill enter the engine.

Water-containing sludge must be removed from the settling tank before theseparation process starts, and must also be removed from the service tankat regular intervals. The tank's ventilation system must be designed in such away that condensate cannot flow back into the tank.

If the vanadium/sodium ratio is unfavorable, the melting point of the heavyfuel oil ash may fall in the operating area of the exhaust-gas valve which canlead to high-temperature corrosion. Most of the water and water-solublesodium compounds it contains can be removed by pretreating the heavy fueloil in the settling tank and in the separators.

The risk of high-temperature corrosion is low if the sodium content is onethird of the vanadium content or less. It must also be ensured that sodiumdoes not enter the engine in the form of seawater in the intake air.

If the sodium content is higher than 100 mg/kg, this is likely to result in ahigher quantity of salt deposits in the combustion chamber and exhaust-gassystem. This will impair the function of the engine (including the suction func-tion of the turbocharger).

Under certain conditions, high-temperature corrosion can be prevented byusing a fuel additive that increases the melting point of the heavy fuel oil ash(also see "Additives for heavy fuel oils”).

Fuel ash consists for the greater part of vanadium oxide and nickel sulphate(see above chapter for more information). Heavy fuel oils containing a highproportion of ash in the form of foreign matter, e.g. sand, corrosion com-pounds and catalyst particles, accelerate the mechanical wear in the engine.Catalyst particles produced as a result of the catalytic cracking process maybe present in the heavy fuel oils. In most cases, these are aluminium silicateparticles that cause a high degree of wear in the injection system and theengine. The aluminium content determined, multiplied by a factor of between5 and 8 (depending on the catalytic bond), is roughly the same as the pro-portion of catalyst remnants in the heavy fuel oil.

If a homogeniser is used, it must never be installed between the settling tankand separator as otherwise it will not be possible to ensure satisfactory sepa-ration of harmful contaminants, particularly seawater.

National and international transportation and storage regulations governingthe use of fuels must be complied with in relation to the flash point. In gen-eral, a flash point of above 60 °C is prescribed for diesel engine fuels.

The pour point is the temperature at which the fuel is no longer flowable(pumpable). As the pour point of many low-viscosity heavy fuel oils is higherthan 0 °C, the bunker facility must be preheated, unless fuel in accordancewith RMA or RMB is used. The entire bunker facility must be designed insuch a way that the heavy fuel oil can be preheated to around 10 °C abovethe pour point.

If the viscosity of the fuel is higher than 1000 mm2/s (cST), or the tempera-ture is not at least 10 °C above the pour point, pump problems will occur.For more information, also refer to “Low-temperature behaviour(ASTM D 97)”.

If the proportion of asphalt is more than two thirds of the coke residue (Con-radson), combustion may be delayed which in turn may increase the forma-tion of combustion residues, leading to such as deposits on and in the injec-tion nozzles, large amounts of smoke, low output, increased fuel consump-tion and a rapid rise in ignition pressure as well as combustion close to thecylinder wall (thermal overloading of lubricating oil film). If the ratio of asphaltto coke residues reaches the limit 0.66, and if the asphalt content exceeds8%, the risk of deposits forming in the combustion chamber and injection

system is higher. These problems can also occur when using unstable heavyfuel oils, or if incompatible heavy fuel oils are mixed. This would lead to anincreased deposition of asphalt (see "Compatibility”).

Nowadays, to achieve the prescribed reference viscosity, cracking-processproducts are used as the low viscosity ingredients of heavy fuel oils althoughthe ignition characteristics of these oils may also be poor. The cetane num-ber of these compounds should be < 35. If the proportion of aromatic hydro-carbons is high (more than 35 %), this also adversely affects the ignitionquality.

The ignition delay in heavy fuel oils with poor ignition characteristics is longer;the combustion is also delayed which can lead to thermal overloading of theoil film at the cylinder liner and also high cylinder pressures. The ignition delayand accompanying increase in pressure in the cylinder are also influenced bythe end temperature and compression pressure, i.e. by the compressionratio, the charge-air pressure and charge-air temperature.

The disadvantages of using fuels with poor ignition characteristics can belimited by preheating the charge air in partial load operation and reducing theoutput for a limited period. However, a more effective solution is a high com-pression ratio and operational adjustment of the injection system to the igni-tion characteristics of the fuel used, as is the case with MAN Diesel pistonengines.

The ignition quality is one of the most important properties of the fuel. Thisvalue does not appear in the international specifications because a standar-dised testing method has only recently become available and not enoughexperience has been gathered at this point in order to determine limit values.The parameters, such as the calculated carbon aromaticity index (CCAI), aretherefore aids that are derived from quantifiable fuel properties. We haveestablished that this method is suitable for determining the approximate igni-tion quality of the heavy fuel oil used.

A testing instrument has been developed based on the constant volumecombustion method (fuel combustion analyser FCA) and is currently beingtested by a series of testing laboratories.The instrument measures the ignition delay to determine the ignition qualityof a fuel and this measurement is converted into a an instrument-specificcetane number (FIA-CN or EC). It has been established that in some cases,heavy fuel oils with a low FIA cetane number or ECN number can causeoperating problems.

As the liquid components of the heavy fuel oil decisively influence the ignitionquality, flow properties and combustion quality, the bunker operator isresponsible for ensuring that the quality of heavy fuel oil delivered is suitablefor the diesel engine. (Also see illustration entitled "Nomogram for determin-ing the CCAI – assigning the CCAI ranges to engine types").

Page 245: L2738 Manual

The supplier must guarantee that the heavy fuel oil is homogeneous andremains stable, even after the standard storage period. If different bunker oilsare mixed, this can lead to separation and the associated sludge formation inthe fuel system during which large quantities of sludge accumulate in theseparator that block filters, prevent atomisation and a large amount of resi-due as a result of combustion.

This is due to incompatibility or instability of the oils. Therefore heavy fuel oilas much as possible should be removed in the storage tank before bunker-ing again to prevent incompatibility.

If heavy fuel oil for the main engine is blended with gas oil (MGO) to obtainthe required quality or viscosity of heavy fuel oil, it is extremely important thatthe components are compatible (see "Compatibility").

MAN Diesel & Turbo SE engines can be operated economically without addi-tives. It is up to the customer to decide whether or not the use of additives isbeneficial. The supplier of the additive must guarantee that the engine opera-tion will not be impaired by using the product.

The use of heavy fuel oil additives during the warranty period must be avoi-ded as a basic principle.

Additives that are currently used for diesel engines, as well as their probableeffects on the engine's operation, are summarised in the table below "Addi-tives for heavy fuel oils – classification/effects".

Precombustion additives ▪ Dispersing agents/stabil-isers

▪ Emulsion breakers

▪ Biocides

Combustion additives ▪ Combustion catalysts(fuel savings, emissions)

Post-combustion additives ▪ Ash modifiers (hot corro-sion)

▪ Soot removers (exhaust-gas system)

Table 3: Additives for heavy fuel oils – Classification/effects

From the point of view of an engine manufacturer, a lower limit for the sul-phur content of heavy fuel oils does not exist. We have not identified anyproblems with the low-sulphur heavy fuel oils currently available on the mar-ket that can be traced back to their sulphur content. This situation maychange in future if new methods are used for the production of low-sulphurheavy fuel oil (desulphurisation, new blending components). MAN Diesel &Turbo will monitor developments and inform its customers if required.

If the engine is not always operated with low-sulphur heavy fuel oil, corre-sponding lubricating oil for the fuel with the highest sulphur content must beselected.

Improper handling of operating fluidsIf operating fluids are improperly handled, this can pose a danger tohealth, safety and the environment. The relevant safety information bythe supplier of operating fluids must be observed.

TestsTo check whether the specification provided and/or the necessary deliveryconditions are complied with, we recommend you retain at least one sampleof every bunker oil (at least for the duration of the engine's warranty period).To ensure that the samples taken are representative of the bunker oil, a sam-ple should be taken from the transfer line when starting up, halfway throughthe operating period and at the end of the bunker period. “Sample Tec" byMar-Tec in Hamburg is a suitable testing instrument which can be used totake samples on a regular basis during bunkering.

Our department for fuels and lubricating oils (Augsburg factory, departmentEQC) will be pleased to provide further information on request.

We can analyse fuel for customers at our laboratory. A 0.5 l sample isrequired for the test.

Additional informationDuring transshipment and transfer, MDO is handled in the same manner asresidual oil. This means that it is possible for the oil to be mixed with high-viscosity fuel or heavy fuel oil – with the remnants of these types of fuels inthe bunker ship, for example – that could significantly impair the properties ofthe oil.

Normally, the lubricating ability of diesel oil is sufficient to operate the fuelinjection pump. Desulphurisation of diesel fuels can reduce their lubricity. Ifthe sulphur content is extremely low (< 500 ppm or 0.05%), the lubricity mayno longer be sufficient. Before using diesel fuels with low sulphur content,you should therefore ensure that their lubricity is sufficient. This is the case ifthe lubricity as specified in ISO 12156-1 does not exceed 520 μm.

The fuel must be free of lubricating oil (ULO – used lubricating oil, old oil).Fuel is considered as contaminated with lubricating oil when the followingconcentrations occur:

Ca > 30 ppm and Zn > 15 ppm or Ca > 30 ppm and P > 15 ppm.

The pour point specifies the temperature at which the oil no longer flows. Thelowest temperature of the fuel in the system should be roughly 10 °C abovethe pour point to ensure that the required pumping characteristics are main-tained.

A minimum viscosity must be observed to ensure sufficient lubrication in thefuel injection pumps. The temperature of the fuel must therefore not exceed45 °C.

Seawater causes the fuel system to corrode and also leads to hot corrosionof the exhaust valves and turbocharger. Seawater also causes insufficientatomisation and therefore poor mixture formation accompanied by a highproportion of combustion residues.

Solid foreign matter increase mechanical wear and formation of ash in thecylinder space.

We recommend the installation of a separator upstream of the fuel filter. Sep-aration temperature: 40 – 50°C. Most solid particles (sand, rust and catalystparticles) and water can be removed, and the cleaning intervals of the filterelements can be extended considerably.

Improper handling of operating fluidsIf operating fluids are improperly handled, this can pose a danger tohealth, safety and the environment. The relevant safety information bythe supplier of operating fluids must be observed.

* The process for determining the filterability in accordance with DIN EN 116 is similar to the process for determiningthe cloud point in accordance with ISO 3015

Additional informationIf distillate intended for use as heating oil is used with stationary enginesinstead of diesel oil (EL heating oil according to DIN 51603 or Fuel No. 1 orno. 2 according to ASTM D 396), the ignition behaviour, stability and behav-iour at low temperatures must be ensured; in other words the requirementsfor the filterability and cetane number must be satisfied.

To ensure sufficient lubrication, a minimum viscosity must be ensured at thefuel pump. The maximum temperature required to ensure that a viscosity ofmore than 1.9 mm2/s is maintained upstream of the fuel pump, depends onthe fuel viscosity. In any case, the fuel temperature upstream of the injectionpump must not exceed 45 °C.

Normally, the lubricating ability of diesel oil is sufficient to operate the fuelinjection pump. Desulphurisation of diesel fuels can reduce their lubricity. Ifthe sulphur content is extremely low (< 500 ppm or 0.05%), the lubricity mayno longer be sufficient. Before using diesel fuels with low sulphur content,you should therefore ensure that their lubricity is sufficient. This is the case ifthe lubricity as specified in ISO 12156-1 does not exceed 520 μm.

You can ensure that these conditions will be met by using motor vehicle die-sel fuel in accordance with EN 590 as this characteristic value is an integralpart of the specification.

Operation with biofuel

Please contact MAN Diesel & Turbo at an early stage of project.

Requirements on plant side

Biofuel has to be divided into 3 categories.

Categori 1 - transesterified biofuel

For example:

• Biodiesel (FAME)

Esterified biofuel is comparable to MDO (ISO-F-DMB/ISO-F-DMC), therefore standard layout of fuel oil system for MDO-operation to be used.

Categori 2 - not transesterified biofuel and pour point below 20° C

For example:

• Vegetable oil• Rape-seed oil

Not transesterified biofuel with pour point below 20° C is comparable to HFO (ISO-F-RM), therefore standard layout of fuel oil system for HFO-operation to be used.

Categori 3 - not transesterified biofuel and pour point above 20° C

For example:

• Palm oil• Stearin• Animal fat• Frying fat

Caution:Not transesterified biofuel with a pour point above 20° C carries a risk of flocculation and may clog up pipes and filters unless special precautions are taken.

Therefore the standard layout of fuel oil system for HFO-operation has to be modified concerning fol-lowing aspects:

• In general no part of the fuel oil system must be cooled down below pour pont of the used biofuel.

• Fuel cooler for circulation fuel oil feeding part => to be modified.In this circuit a temperature above pour point of the biofuel is needed without overheating of the supply pumps.

• Sensor pipes to be isolated or heated and located near to main pipes.

• To prevent injection nozzles from clogging indi-cator filter size 0.010 mm has to be used instead of 0.034 mm.

Additionally:

Requirements on engine

• Injection pumps with special coating and with sealing oil system.

• Fuel pipes and leak fuel pipes must be equipped with heattracing (not to be applied for biofuel category 1). Heattracing to be applied for biofuel category 2 outside covers of injection pump area and for biofuel category 3 also inside injection pump area.

• Inlet valve lubrication (L32/40)

• Nozzle cooling to be appied for biofuel category 2 and 3. (L32/40)

• Charge air temperature before cylinder 55° C to minimize ignition delay.

Please be aware

• Depending on the quality of the biofuel, it may be necessary to carry out one oil change per year (this is not taken into account in the details concerning lubricating oil consumption).

• An addition to the fuel oil consumption is ne-cessary:

2 g/kWh addition to fuel oil consumption (see chapter fuel oil consumption)

• Engine operation with fuels of low calorific value like biofuel, requires an output reduction:

• LCV ≥ 38 MJ/kg Power reduction 0%

• LCV ≥ 36 MJ/kg Power reduction 5%

• LCV ≥ 35 MJ/kg Power reduction 10%

* With these figures, the temperature drop between the last preheatingdevice and the fuel injection pump is not taken into account.

A heavy fuel oil with a viscosity of 180 mm2/s at 50 °C can reach a viscosityof 1000 mm2/s at 24 °C (line e) – this is the maximum permissible viscosity offuel that the pump can deliver.

A heavy fuel oil discharge temperature of 152 °C is reached when using arecent state-of-the-art preheating device with 8 bar saturated steam. Athigher temperatures there is a risk of residues forming in the preheating sys-tem – this leads to a reduction in heating output and thermal overloading ofthe heavy fuel oil. Asphalt is also formed in this case, i.e. quality deterioration.

The heavy fuel oil lines between the outlet of the last preheating system andthe injection valve must be suitably insulated to limit the maximum drop intemperature to 4 °C. This is the only way to achieve the necessary injectionviscosity of 14 mm2/s for heavy fuel oils with a reference viscosity of 700mm2/s at 50 °C (the maximum viscosity as defined in the international specifi-cations such as ISO CIMAC or British Standard). If heavy fuel oil with a lowreference viscosity is used, the injection viscosity should ideally be 12 mm2/sin order to achieve more effective atomisation to reduce the combustion resi-due.

The delivery pump must be designed for heavy fuel oil with a viscosity of upto 1 000 mm2/s. The pour point also determines whether the pump is capa-ble of transporting the heavy fuel oil. The bunker facility must be designed soas to allow the heavy fuel oil to be heated to roughly 10 C above the pourpoint.

ViscosityThe viscosity of gas oil or diesel oil (marine diesel oil) upstream of theengine must be at least 1.9 mm2/s. If the viscosity is too low, this maycause seizing of the pump plunger or nozzle needle valves as a resultof insufficient lubrication.

This can be avoided by monitoring the temperature of the fuel. Although themaximum permissible temperature depends on the viscosity of the fuel, itmust never exceed the following values:

▪ 45 °C at the most with MGO (DMA) and MDO (DMB) and

▪ 60 °C at the most with MDO (DMC).

A fuel cooler must therefore be installed.

If the viscosity of the fuel is < 2 cSt at 40 °C, consult the technical service ofMAN Diesel & Turbo SE in Augsburg.

Lubricating Oil System

General

The engine features an entirely closed wet sump lub oil system, ensuring easy installation and no risk of dirt entering the lub oil circuit.

The helical gear type lub oil pump is installed in the front-end box and draws the oil from the sump.

Via a double check valve with connection for stand-by pump, the oil flows to the pressure regulator, through the built-on lub oil plate cooler and the integrated automatic lub oil filter to the engine.

The back-flush oil from the filter is drained to the sump. A purifier must be connected to maintain proper condition of the lub oil.

Integrated thermostatic elements ensure a constant lub oil temperature to the engine.

Lub Oil Consumption

The lub oil consumption is 0.5-0.8 g/kWh (always referring to MCR).

It should, however, be observed that during the running-in period the lub oil consumption may exceed the values stated:

Engine type Lub oil consumption [litres/hour]

9L27/38 1.7 - 2.7

Lub Oil Requirements

Only lub oils meeting the requirements in the “List of Lubricating Oils” may be used.

Within the guarantee period, only lub oils approved by us should be used, unless a written statement has been given.

Lub oil stand–by pump, item 2

To ensure good suction conditions for the lub oil pump, the pump should be placed as low as possible.

The suction pipe should be as short and with as few bends as possible in order to prevent cavitation of the pump.

The lub oil stand-by pump also acts as a priming pump for the engine prior to start.

Design data:

Capacity: See planning dataPressure: Min 5 barTemperature: Max 85 °CViscosity at normal operation: 40 cSt (corresponding to 70 °C)Max viscosity for dimensioning of el-motor: 1000 cSt (corresponding to 12 °C for SAE 40 oil)

The turbocharger is connected into the same pip-ing system and must not be primed for more than 5 minutes. The motor starter for the stand-by pump must be fitted with time and auxiliary relays limiting the stand-by pump to run for 5 minutes only.

When we are to supply the motor starter, the function described is built-in. When the motor starter is not included in our scope of supply, a drawing showing the components and connections required will be forwarded.

Lub oil cooler, item 3

The lub oil cooler with stainless steel plates is built-on to the engine. All connections are integrated in cooler/front-end box.

The heat dissipation appears from the planning data.

Lub oil thermostatic valve, item 4

The integrated thermostatic valve has 4 elements and controls the inlet temperature to the engine. The nominal set-point is 66 °C. Manual override is featured when required by the classification society concerned.

Automatic lub oil, back-flushing filter, item 5

The built-on automatic lub oil filter has 2 filtering stages:

The primary filter contains several filter candles with a filter mesh of 25 µm corresponding to a nominal filtration degree of 20 µm.

The back-flushing facility operates continuously by means of the oil pressure. The back flushing oil is led to the oil sump.

The pressure drop across the filter candles is approx 0.2 bar with clean filter.

In case the pressure drop exceeds 2 bar, by-pass valves in the filter will open.

The filtered oil is always passing the secondary filter with a filter mesh of 50 µm.

This filter also acts as a safety filter in case the by-pass valves are open.

Lub oil pressure control valve, item 6

The control valve ensures a correct lub oil pressure also in case of operation with the lub oil stand-by pump.

Strainer with magnetic insert, item 7

The strainer is part of the suction pipe in the oil sump.

Prefilter, item 20

To protect the purifier pump, item 21, a prefilter should be inserted before the pump.

Design data:

Capacity: See oil pump, item 21Mesh size: 0.8-1.0 mm

Lub oil pump to purifier, item 21

The pump can be driven directly by the purifier or by an independent motor.

Design data:

Capacity: V = F x P

Pressure: Max 2.5 bar

Temperature: Max 95°C

Preheater before lub oil purifier, item 22

The preheater must be able to raise the temperature of the oil from approx 65°C to approx 95°C, which is the temperature of the oil for purifying.

Capacity: C = V x t/1800

C: Capacity of the preheater in kW V: Flow through preheater in litres/hour - de-

fined from the capacity of the purifier. t: Temperature difference 35°C (engine op-

erating)

Max pressure 4 bar

Max pressure loss 0.5 bar

Specific load on heating surface for an electric pre-heater must not exceed 0.8 W/cm2 .

Lub oil preheating

In case engine stopped for a larger period it can be required to install a preheater which can maintain at least 40 °C in case engine has a longer stand still period.

Preheating the lub oil to 40 °C is effected by the preheater of the seperator via the free-standing pump.

The preheater must be enlarged in size if necessary, so that it can heat the content of the service tank to 40 °C within 4 hours.

Lub oil purifier, item 23

The circulating oil will gradually be contaminated by products of combustion, water and/or acid. In some instances cat_fines may also be present.

In order to prolong the interval between the exchange of oil it is necessary to install an automatic self_clean-ing lub oil purifier dimensioned to handle a flow of approx 0.32-0.38 l/kWh.

As a guideline for the selection of purifier, the follow-ing formula can be used:

V = F x P x (24/T)

V: The nominal capacity of the purifier in litres/hour

F: MDO - 0.32 HFO - 0.38 P: Power of the engine in kW at MCR T: Daily separating time, depending on purifier

(22_24 hours)

Guidance given by the manufacturer of the purifier must be observed.

Lubricating oil (SAE 40) - Specification for heavy fuel operation (HFO)

GeneralThe specific output achieved by modern diesel engines combined with theuse of fuels that satisfy the quality requirements more and more frequentlyincrease the demands on the performance of the lubricating oil which musttherefore be carefully selected.

Medium alkalinity lubricating oils have a proven track record as lubricants forthe moving parts and turbocharger cylinder and for cooling the pistons.Lubricating oils of medium alkalinity contain additives that, in addition toother properties, ensure a higher neutralisation reserve than with fully com-pounded engine oils (HD oils).

International specifications do not exist for medium alkalinity lubricating oils.A test operation is therefore necessary for a corresponding long period inaccordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Only lubricating oils that have been approved by MAN Diesel & Turbo may beused. These are listed in the table entitled "Lubricating oils approved for usein heavy fuel oil-operated MAN Diesel & Turbo four-stroke engines".

SpecificationsThe base oil (doped lubricating oil = base oil + additives) must have a narrowdistillation range and be refined using modern methods. If it contains paraf-fins, they must not impair the thermal stability or oxidation stability.

The base oil must comply with the limit values in the table below, particularlyin terms of its resistance to ageing:

Page 262: L2738 Manual

The additives must be dissolved in the oil and their composition must ensurethat after combustion as little ash as possible is left over, even if the engine isprovisionally operated with distillate oil.

The ash must be soft. If this prerequisite is not met, it is likely the rate of dep-osition in the combustion chamber will be higher, particularly at the outletvalves and at the turbocharger inlet housing. Hard additive ash promotes pit-ting of the valve seats, and causes valve burn-out, it also increases mechani-cal wear of the cylinder liners.

Additives must not increase the rate, at which the filter elements in the activeor used condition are blocked.

The washing ability must be high enough to prevent the accumulation of tarand coke residue as a result of fuel combustion. The lubricating oil must notabsorb the deposits produced by the fuel.

The selected dispersibility must be such that commercially-available lubricat-ing oil cleaning systems can remove harmful contaminants from the oil used,i.e. the oil must possess good filtering properties and separability.

The neutralisation capability (ASTM D2896) must be high enough to neutral-ise the acidic products produced during combustion. The reaction time ofthe additive must be harmonised with the process in the combustion cham-ber.

For tips on selecting the base number, refer to the table entitled “Base num-ber to be used for various operating conditions".

The evaporation tendency must be as low as possible as otherwise the oilconsumption will be adversely affected.

The lubricating oil must not contain viscosity index improver. Fresh oil mustnot contain water or other contaminants.

Lubricating oils with medium alkalinity and a range of neutralisation capabili-ties (BN) are available on the market. According to current knowledge, a rela-tionship can be established between the anticipated operating conditionsand the BN number as shown in the table entitled "Base number to be usedfor various operating conditions". However, the operating results are still theoverriding factor in determining which BN number produces the most effi-cient engine operation.

Table 3: Base number to be used for various operating conditions

To comply with the emissions regulations, the sulphur content of fuels usednowadays varies. Fuels with a low-sulphur content must be used in environ-mentally-sensitive areas (SECA). Fuels with a higher sulphur content may beused outside SECA zones. In this case, the BN number of the lubricating oilselected must satisfy the requirements for operation using fuel with a high-sulphur content. A lubricating oil with low BN number may only be selected iffuel with a low-sulphur content is used exclusively during operation.However, the results obtained in practiсe that demonstrate the most efficientengine operation are the factor that ultimately determines, which additivefraction is permitted.

In engines with separate cylinder lubrication systems, the pistons and cylin-der liners are supplied with lubricating oil via a separate lubricating oil pump.The quantity of lubricating oil is set at the factory according to the quality ofthe fuel to be used and the anticipated operating conditions.

Use a lubricating oil for the cylinder and lubricating circuit as specified above.

Multigrade oil 5W40 should ideally be used in mechanical-hydraulic control-lers with a separate oil sump. If this oil is not available when filling, 15W40 oilcan be used instead in exceptional cases. In this case, it makes no differencewhether synthetic or mineral-based oils are used.

The military specification for these oils is O-236.

Experience with the drive engine L27/38 has shown that the operating tem-perature of the Woodward controller UG10MAS and corresponding actuatorfor UG723+ can reach temperatures higher than 93 °C. In these cases, werecommend using synthetic oil such as Castrol Alphasyn HG150. Enginessupplied after March 2005 are already filled with this oil.

The use of other additives with the lubricating oil, or the mixing of differentbrands (oils by different manufacturers), is not permitted as this may impairthe performance of the existing additives which have been carefully harmon-ised with each another, and also specially tailored to the base oil.

Most of the mineral oil companies are in close regular contact with enginemanufacturers, and can therefore provide information on which oil in theirspecific product range has been approved by the engine manufacturer forthe particular application. Irrespective of the above, the lubricating oil manu-facturers are in any case responsible for the quality and characteristics oftheir products. If you have any questions, we will be happy to provide youwith further information.

There are no prescribed oil change intervals for MAN Diesel & Turbo mediumspeed engines. The oil properties must be regularly analysed. The oil can beused for as long as the oil properties remain within the defined limit values(see table entitled "Limit values for used lubricating oil“). An oil sample must

be analysed every 1-3 months (see maintenance schedule). The quality of theoil can only be maintained if it is cleaned using suitable equipment (e.g. aseparator or filter).

Due to current and future emission regulations, heavy fuel oil cannot be usedin designated regions. Low-sulphur diesel fuel must be used in these regionsinstead.

If the engine is operated with low-sulphur diesel fuel for less than 1000 h, alubricating oil which is suitable for HFO operation (BN 30 – 55 mg KOH/g)can be used during this period.

If the engine is operated provisionally with low-sulphur diesel fuel for morethan 1000 h and is subsequently operated once again with HFO, a lubricat-ing oil with a BN of 20 must be used. If the BN 20 lubricating oil from thesame manufacturer as the lubricating oil is used for HFO operation withhigher BN (40 or 50), an oil change will not be required when effecting thechangeover. It will be sufficient to use BN 20 oil when replenishing the usedlubricating oil.

If you wish to operate the engine with HFO once again, it will be necessary tochange over in good time to lubricating oil with a higher BN (30 – 55). If thelubricating oil with higher BN is by the same manufacturer as the BN 20 lubri-cating oil, the changeover can also be effected without an oil change. Indoing so, the lubricating oil with higher BN (30 – 55) must be used to replen-ish the used lubricating oil roughly 2 weeks prior to resuming HFO operation.

Specification of lubricating oil (SAE 40) for operation with gas oil, diesel oil(MGO/MDO) and biofuels

GeneralThe specific output achieved by modern diesel engines combined with theuse of fuels that satisfy the quality requirements more and more frequentlyincrease the demands on the performance of the lubricating oil which musttherefore be carefully selected.

Doped lubricating oils (HD oils) have a proven track record as lubricants forthe drive, cylinder, turbocharger and also for cooling the piston. Doped lubri-cating oils contain additives that, amongst other things, ensure dirt absorp-tion capability, cleaning of the engine and the neutralisation of acidic com-bustion products.

Only lubricating oils that have been approved by MAN Diesel & Turbo may beused. These are listed in the tables below.

SpecificationsThe base oil (doped lubricating oil = base oil + additives) must have a narrowdistillation range and be refined using modern methods. If it contains paraf-fins, they must not impair the thermal stability or oxidation stability.

The base oil must comply with the following limit values, particularly in termsof its resistance to ageing.

The ash must be soft. If this prerequisite is not met, it is likely the rate of dep-osition in the combustion chamber will be higher, particularly at the outletvalves and at the turbocharger inlet housing. Hard additive ash promotes pit-ting of the valve seats, and causes valve burn-out, it also increases mechani-cal wear of the cylinder liners.

Additives must not increase the rate, at which the filter elements in the activeor used condition are blocked.

The washing ability must be high enough to prevent the accumulation of tarand coke residue as a result of fuel combustion.

The selected dispersibility must be such that commercially-available lubricat-ing oil cleaning systems can remove harmful contaminants from the oil used,i.e. the oil must possess good filtering properties and separability.

The neutralisation capability (ASTM D2896) must be high enough to neutral-ise the acidic products produced during combustion. The reaction time ofthe additive must be harmonised with the process in the combustion cham-ber.

The evaporation tendency must be as low as possible as otherwise the oilconsumption will be adversely affected.

The lubricating oil must not contain viscosity index improver. Fresh oil mustnot contain water or other contaminants.

Table 2: Viscosity (SAE class) of lubricating oils

We recommend doped lubricating oils (HD oils) according to internationalspecifications MIL-L 2104 or API-CD with a base number of BN 10 – 16 mgKOH/g. Military specification O-278 lubricating oils may be used.

The operating conditions of the engine and the quality of the fuel determinethe additive fractions the lubricating oil should contain. If marine diesel oil isused, which has a high sulphur content of 1.5 up to 2.0 weight %, a basenumber of appr. 20 should be selected. However, the operating results thatensure the most efficient engine operation ultimately determine the additivecontent.

In engines with separate cylinder lubrication systems, the pistons and cylin-der liners are supplied with lubricating oil via a separate lubricating oil pump.The quantity of lubricating oil is set at the factory according to the quality ofthe fuel to be used and the anticipated operating conditions.

Use a lubricating oil for the cylinder and lubricating circuit as specified above.

Multigrade oil 5W40 should ideally be used in mechanical-hydraulic control-lers with a separate oil sump. If this oil is not available when filling, 15W40 oilcan be used instead in exceptional cases. In this case, it makes no differencewhether synthetic or mineral-based oils are used.

The military specification for these oils is O-236.

Experience with the drive engine L27/38 has shown that the operating tem-perature of the Woodward controller UG10MAS and corresponding actuatorfor UG723+ can reach temperatures higher than 93 °C. In these cases, werecommend using synthetic oil such as Castrol Alphasyn HG150. Enginessupplied after March 2005 are already filled with this oil.

Page 269: L2738 Manual

The use of other additives with the lubricating oil, or the mixing of differentbrands (oils by different manufacturers), is not permitted as this may impairthe performance of the existing additives which have been carefully harmon-ised with each another, and also specially tailored to the base oil.

Most of the mineral oil companies are in close regular contact with enginemanufacturers, and can therefore provide information on which oil in theirspecific product range has been approved by the engine manufacturer forthe particular application. Irrespective of the above, the lubricating oil manu-facturers are in any case responsible for the quality and characteristics oftheir products. If you have any questions, we will be happy to provide youwith further information.

There are no prescribed oil change intervals for MAN Diesel & Turbo mediumspeed engines. The oil properties must be regularly analysed. The oil can beused for as long as the oil properties remain within the defined limit values(see table entitled "Limit values for used lubricating oil“). An oil sample mustbe analysed every 1-3 months (see maintenance schedule). The quality of theoil can only be maintained if it is cleaned using suitable equipment (e.g. aseparator or filter).

Due to current and future emission regulations, heavy fuel oil cannot be usedin designated regions. Low-sulphur diesel fuel must be used in these regionsinstead.

If the engine is operated with low-sulphur diesel fuel for less than 1000 h, alubricating oil which is suitable for HFO operation (BN 30 – 55 mg KOH/g)can be used during this period.

If the engine is operated provisionally with low-sulphur diesel fuel for morethan 1000 h and is subsequently operated once again with HFO, a lubricat-ing oil with a BN of 20 must be used. If the BN 20 lubricating oil from thesame manufacturer as the lubricating oil is used for HFO operation withhigher BN (40 or 50), an oil change will not be required when effecting thechangeover. It will be sufficient to use BN 20 oil when replenishing the usedlubricating oil.

If you wish to operate the engine with HFO once again, it will be necessary tochange over in good time to lubricating oil with a higher BN (30 – 55). If thelubricating oil with higher BN is by the same manufacturer as the BN 20 lubri-cating oil, the changeover can also be effected without an oil change. Indoing so, the lubricating oil with higher BN (30 – 55) must be used to replen-ish the used lubricating oil roughly 2 weeks prior to resuming HFO operation.

TestsWe can analyse lubricating oil for customers at our laboratory. A 0.5 l sampleis required for the test.

Improper handling of operating fluidsIf operating fluids are improperly handled, this can pose a danger tohealth, safety and the environment. The relevant safety information bythe supplier of operating fluids must be observed.

Starting air system

L21/31L27/38

General

The compressed air system on the engine consists of a starting system, starting control system and safety system. Further, the system supplies air to the jet system and the stop cylinders on each fuel injection pump.

The compressed air is supplied from the starting air receivers (30 bar) through a reduction station, where from compressed air at max. 10 bar is supplied to the engine. The reduction station should be located as near the starting air receiver as possible.To avoid dirt particles in the internal system, a strainer equipped with a drain valve is mounted in the inlet line to the engine.

Starting System

The engine is started by means of a built-on air starter, which is a turbine motor with gear box, safety clutch and drive shaft with pinion. Further, there is a main starting valve.

Control System

The air starter is activated electrically with a pneu-matic 3/2-way solenoid valve. The valve can be acti-vated manually from the starting box on the engine, and it can be arranged for remote control, manual or automatic.

For remote activation the starting coil is connected so that every starting signal to the starting coil goes

through the safe start function which is connected to the safety system mounted on the engine.

Further, the starting valve also acts as an emergency starting valve which makes it possible to activate the air starter manually in case of power failure.

Safety System

As standard the engine is equipped with an emer-gency stop. It consists of one on-off valve, see diagram, which activates one stop cylinder on each fuel injection pump.

Air supply must not be interrupted when the engine is running.

Pneumatic Start Sequence

When the starting valve is opened, air will be sup plied to the drive shaft housing of the air starter.

The air supply will - by activating a piston - bring the drive pinion into engagement with the gear rim on the engine flywheel.

When the pinion is fully engaged, the pilot air will flow to, and open the main starting valve, whereby air will be led to the air starter, which will start to turn the engine.

When the RPM exceeds approx. 158, at which firing has taken place, the starting valve is closed whereby the air starter is disengaged.

Starting air system

Compressor, items 1 and 1A

The pressure switch (PSL) for aut start/stop of the compressors 1 and 1A is to be connected to the charging air pipe as close as possible to the starting air receiver, to compensate for pressure peaks from the compressor. If the pipe is short, a buffer tank or damper is recommended.

All of the starting air receivers, items 3 and 3A, should be pressurized to 30 bar for approx 60 minutes.

Artic conditions 30 minutes.

Compressors are to be installed with total capacity sufficient for charging air receivers of capacities specified from atmospheric to full pressure in the course of one hour.

Two or more compressors of total capacity as speci-fied are to be installed’.

Calculation (example):

30 * VP = (m3/h) 1000

P = Total capacity of the compressors (m3/h)V = Total volume of the starting air reciever (dm3) at service pressure of 30 bar)

Example: 1 x 250 ltr + 1 x 500 ltr

30 * 750P = = 22.5 (m3/h) 1000

Filter with water trap, item 2

A filter with water trap should be installed in the charging air pipe between the compressors and the starting air receivers.

L21/31L27/38

Starting air receiver, items 3 and 3A

The starting air receiver should, preferably, be vertically installed and secured to a bulkhead, thus ensuring easy acess to the water drain valve. If space conditions do not permit vertical mounting, the receiver may be minimum 5° off the horizontal, with the drain valve at the lowest position.

Two starting air receivers are standard equipment for each plant. Table on next page descripe minimum values of starting air capacity.

Pressure reducing valve, item 5

As standard the engines are fitted with a 10 bar air starter. Therefore the air supply needs to be reduced from 30 bar to 10 bar before inlet engine.

If the engine is fitted with a 30 bar air starter (option), there will be a pressure reducing valve for stop air pressure installed.

If a pressure drop should occur, it is alarmed by the pressure switch (PT 1322) on the engine control system. To have this indication there need to be a pipe from before the pressure reducing station to location of pressure switch (PT 1322).

Starting air and charging air pipe

The starting and charging air pipes are to be installed with a slope towards the starting air receiver, pre-venting possible condensed water from running into the air starting motor or the compressors. A drain valve has to be installed at the lowest position of the starting air pipe, as shown in fig 1.

Specifications for intake air (combustion air)

GeneralThe quality and condition of intake air (combustion air) have a significanteffect on the power output, wear and emissions of the engine. In this regard,not only are the atmospheric conditions extremely important, but also con-tamination by solid and gaseous foreign matter.

Mineral dust in the intake air increases wear. Chemicals and gases promotecorrosion.

This is why effective cleaning of intake air (combustion air) and regular main-tenance/cleaning of the air filter are required.

When designing the intake air system, the maximum permissible overall pres-sure drop (filter, silencer, pipe line) of 20 mbar must be taken into considera-tion.

RequirementsGas engines or dual-fuel engines may only be equipped with a dry filter. Anoil filter should not be installed, because they enrich air with oil mist, which isnot permissible for gas operated engines. Filters of efficiency class G4according to EN 779 must be used. The concentrations downstream of theair filter and/or upstream of the turbocharger inlet must not exceed the fol-lowing limit values:

Properties Typical value Unit *

Dust (sand, cement, CaO, Al2O3 etc.) max. 5 mg/Nm3

Chlorine max. 1.5

Sulphur dioxide (SO2) max. 1.25

Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) max. 5

Salt (NaCl) max. 1

* One Nm3 corresponds to one cubic meter ofgas at 0 °C and 101.32 kPa.

Table 1: Intake air (combustion air) - typical values to be observed

System Description - SaCoSone

L21/31L27/38

System descriptionSafety system

Safety functions

The safety system monitors all operating data of the engine and initiates the required actions, i.e. engine shut-down, in case the limit values are exceeded. The safety system is integrated in the CMS/safety. The safety system directly actuates the emergency shut-down device and the stop facility of the speed governor.

Emergency stop

Emergency stop is an engine shutdown initiated by an operator manual action like pressing an emergency stop button. An emergency stop button is placed at the LOP on engine. For connection of an external emer-gency stop button there is one input channel at the Control Unit.

Automatic shutdown

Auto shutdown is an engine shutdown initiated by any automatic supervision of engine internal parameters. If an engine shutdown is triggered by the safety system, the emergency stop signal has an immediate effect on the emergency shut-down device and the speed control. At the same time the emergency stop is triggered, SaCoSone issues a signal resulting in disengaging the clutch. The following list of criteria leading to an auto-matic shutdown and might be incomplete. For more details see the “List of measuring and control devices”.

• Engine overspeed • HT cooling water pressure inlet too low• HT cooling water temperature outlet too high• Lube oil pressure at engine inlet low• Gear lube oil pressure too low• Gear pinion bearing fore temp. too high• Gear pinion bearing after temp. too high• Gear wheel bearing fore temp. too high• Gear wheel bearing after temp. too high• Gear clutch bearing temp. too high• Gear clutch support bearing temp. too high• Splash oil temperature rod bearing too high (optional)• Main bearing temperature too high (optional)• High oil mist concentration in crankcase (optional)• Remote Shutdown (optional)

Load reductions

After the exceeding of certain parameters, a load reduction to 60% is necessary. The safety system super-vises these parameters and requests a load reduction, if necessary. The load reduction has to be carried out by an external system (PCS, PMS). For safety reasons, SaCoSone PROPULSION will not reduce the load by itself. The following list of criteria leading to a load reduction request and might be incomplete. For more details see the “List of measuring and control devices”.

• Turbocharger speed high• Exhaust gas temperature at cylinder too low/high

Auto disengagements

If SaCoSone PROPULSION is used for clutch monitoring, it will carry out automatic disengagements of the clutch to protect gearbox, propeller or engine against destruction. In this case, the clutch will be opened as fast as possible. The following list of criteria leading to an automatic disengagement and might be incomplete. For more details see the “List of measuring and control devices”.Clutch medium pressure lowAutomatic shutdown of the engineManual emergency stop of the engine

Alarm/monitoring system

Alarming

The alarm function of SaCoSone PROPULSION supervises all necessary parameters and generates alarms to indicate discrepancies when required. The alarms will be transferred to ship alarm system via Modbus data communication.

Self-monitoring

SaCoSone PROPULSION carries out independent self-monitoring functions. Thus, for example the connect-ed sensors are checked constantly for function and wire break. In case of a fault SaCoSone PROPULSION reports the occurred malfunctions in single system components via system alarms.

Control

SaCoSone PROPULSION controls all engine-internal functions as well as external components, for example:

• Start/stop sequences:• Local and remote start/stop sequence.• Activation of start device. Control (auto start/stop signal) regarding prelubrication oil pump.• Monitoring and control of the acceleration period.

• Jet system:• For air fuel ratio control purposes, compressed air is lead to the turbocharger at start and at load

steps.

Speed Control System

Governor

Single propulsion enginesSingle propulsion engines are equipped with mechanical governors in combination with electric speed setting device for remote speed setting by the Propulsion Control System.

Multi propulsion enginesFor multi propulsion engines the electronic speed control is realised by the Control Module. The engine is equipped with an electro-hydraulic actuator. Engine speed indication is carried out by means of redundant pick-ups at the camshaft.The electronic speed governor is a part of the software in the CMS/alarm module and controls with its output the on the engine attached mechanically/hydraulically actuator.

Speed adjustment

Remote speed setting is either possible via analogue 4-20 mA signal or by using binary lower/raise contacts.

Load sharing

For load sharing purposes (several engines on one shaft) or other applications droop will be required. The speed droop is adjustable from 0-10% as the application requires.Load sharing for two propellers on one shaft requires electronic speed governing and will be realized by master/slave load sharing.

Engine stop

Engine stop can be initiated local at the LOP and remote via a hardware channel or the bus interface.

Clutch, Gearbox and propeller control

SaCoSone PROPULSION monitors the relevant temperatures and pressures of the gearbox and propeller. The system also provides hardwired interfaces for the control of the clutch.

Message Frame Separation

Message frames shall be separated by a silent interval of at least 4 character times.

Provided Data

Provided data includes measured values and alarm or state information of the engine.

Measured values are digitized analogue values of sensors, which are stored in a fixed register of the Con-trol Module Small. Measured values include media values (pressures, temperatures) where, according to the rules of classification, monitoring has to be done by the machinery alarm system. The data type used is signed integer of size 16 bit. Measured values are scaled by a constant factor in order to provide decimals of the measured.

Pre-alarms, shutdowns and state information from the SaCoSone system are available as single bits in fixed registers. The data type used is unsigned of size 16 bit. The corresponding bits of alarm or state information are set to the binary value „1“, if the event is active. Contents of List of Signals

For detailed information about the transferred data, please refer to the ”list of signals“ of the engine’s docu-mentation set. This list contains the following information:

Field Description

Address The address (e.g.: MW15488) is the software address used in the Control Module Small.

HEXThe hexadecimal value (e.g.: 3C80) of the software address that has to be used by theModbus master when collecting the specific data.

BitInformation of alarms, reduce load, shutdown, etc. are available as single bits.Bits in each register are counted 0 to 15.

Meas. PointThe dedicated denomination of the measuring point or limit value as listed in the„list of measuring and control devices“.

Description A short description of the measuring point or limit value.

UnitInformation about how the value of the data has to be evaluated by the Modbus master(e.g. „°C/100“ means: reading a data value of „4156“ corresponds to 41,56 °C).

Origin Name of the system where the specific sensor is connected to, or the alarm is generated.

Signal range The range of measured value.

Life Bit

In order to enable the alarm system to check whether the communication with SaCoS is working, a life bit is provided in the list of signals (MW15861; Bit2). This Bit is alternated every 10 seconds by SaCoS. Thus, if it remains unchanged for more than 10 seconds, the communication is down.

PTO on engine front

PTO on forward end of engine

The engine can be supplied with a PTO on the forward end, as an extension to the crankshaft, see fig 1.

The PTO can be dimensioned to transmit the full engine power. If a plant is to be supplied with PTO it must be planned in co–operation with us. For carrying out the torsional vibration analysis of the complete

L27/38

propulsion system, all necessary information con-cerning the PTO is needed.

Generally, a flexible coupling between the PTO and the generator and/or driven machinery will be neces-sary and this coupling must be selected to transmit the PTO requirements, accommodate and absorb any vibrations which may be present. Usually a toothed coupling will not be allowed.

Max axial force

In principle the PTO must not induce any extra axial forces on the guide bearing of the crankshaft. How-ever, a constant force of max 9000 N can be accepted. This includes a contribution from the crankshaft, if the engine has an inclination in relation to horizontal.

For a 5° inclination to aft end the contribution willbe as stated below.

9L27/38 5540 N 3.0 mm

L27/38

Furthermore it should be observed that the crank-shaft position is fixed by the guide bearing at the aft end of the engine. Crankshaft extension measured at the forward end with a temperature rise of 65 °C corresponds to the values in the shown table.

This extension may cause the flexible coupling be-tween the PTO shaft and the driven part to create an additional axial force on the crankshaft guide bearing and this must be taken into consideration.

An additional PTO of max 50 kW is available on the engine forward end. It can either be used for a sea water pump, or for a hydraulic pump for the steering gear.
