Abstract

The article examines the optimization of high-alkaline cylinder oil consumption in lubrication systems of marine low-speed engines (MODs), as well as the peculiarities of operation of the cylinder lubrication system in view of modern trends in the development of low-speed marine engines. An overview of the lubricator lubrication systems of the cylinders of marine main engines was carried out and possible prospects for improving the lubricator lubrication systems of the cylinders of marine diesel engines were considered. Attention is paid to the causes of occurrence and methods of combating a whole range of problems, which represent the possibility of increased wear of cylinder sleeves, pistons, piston rings, this is related to the type and grade of fuel and its sulfur content. Sulfur in the fuel is neutralized with the help of cylinder oils with high alkalinity, problems arise when changing the grade of fuel, this requires changing the brand of cylinder oil (CLO BN). The possibility of using a cylinder oil mixing system (ACOM) to neutralize sulfur in the fuel and improve protection against low-temperature corrosion of MOD cylinder liners is proposed and considered. This system mixes and doses cylinder oil depending on the load of the ship's engine and the type of fuel. ACOM allows the dosing of oil on marine engines operating in dual fuel consumption (SDF) modes, where the ratio between pilot (ignition) and gas fuel is defined, the system mixes two different types of cylinder oil into one with the required BN base number, it can be determined as the oil's ability to neutralize acids produced during use. The results of optimal consumption of cylinder oil, which ensures minimal wear of cylinder liners of a diesel engine, are given. Features of lubrication regimes and control of the technical condition of the cylinder group of marine low-speed diesel engines during their operation at reduced rotation frequency are described
