January 2007

Mode of operation
The turbocharger is a turbo-machine and consists of the following main
components:
Turbine
Compressor

These are both are mounted on a common shaft.

The exhaust gases from the diesel engine flow through the gas inlet casing (6) and nozzle ring (7) to the turbine wheel (8).
HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

The turbine wheel (8) uses the energy contained in the exhaust gas to
drive the compressor wheel (11), whereby the compressor draws in fresh
air, and the compressed air is forced into the cylinders.
The exhaust gases escape through the exhaust pipe which is connected
to the gas outlet casing (5).
The air which is necessary for the operation of the diesel engine and
which is compressed in the turbocharger is drawn through the suction
branch or the filter silencer (1) into the compressor wheel (11). It then
passes through the diffuser (10) and leaves the turbocharger through the
compressor outlet on the air outlet casing (12).
The rotor runs in two radial plain bearings (2/4), which are located in the
bearing casing (9) between the compressor and the turbine. The axial
thrust bearing (3) is on the compressor side.
The plain bearings are connected to a central lubricating oil feed which is
normally supplied by the oil lubrication circuit of the engine. The oil outlet
is always at the lowest point of the bearing casing (9).

Version 4

The turbocharger is equipped with an emergency lubrication oil tank,


which is integrated in the bearing casing. With a failure of the lubrication
oil system, the bearings are supplied with oil with this emergency lubrication until the rotor comes to a standstill.

4.3 Surging of turbocharger


January 2007

Surging of the turbocharger can occur with certain engine operating states, such as rapid load removal or while manoeuvring. The direction of
flow in the compressor is then briefly reversed. However, sporadic surging
of this kind does not generally affect the safe operation of the turbocharger.
Prolonged or periodic surging

CAUTION

If surging is prolonged or occurs periodically, the following components


may be damaged:

- Turbine blades (cracks)
- Bearing (overheating)
- Filter silencer

Action to be taken:

Version 4

The operating safety of the turbocharger is no longer ensured with continuous or periodically recurring surging. The operator must take immediate steps to correct the surging together with the closest official ABB
Turbo Systems service station.
The components listed above must be inspected for damage by an official

5.3 Cleaning the compressor during operation

NOTE

The dirt in the compressor stage (compressor wheel and diffuser) depends on the cleanness of the air drawn in and the operating point.

Oil or saline mist


Solid combustion residues
Dust of various kinds

Soiling of the compressor stage has a negative effect on compressor efficiency and charging pressure, particularly for smaller turbochargers.
This results in higher exhaust temperatures and increased fuel consumption by the engine. Contamination of the compressor also increases the
rotor imbalance.
Periodic cleaning of the compressor in operation prevents or retards a severe increase in soiling, but in no way replaces the regular servicing work,
during which the turbocharger is completely dismantled.

The interval between periodic cleaning depends in large measure on the


operating conditions. In general, cleaning should be carried out every 25
to 100 operating hours.
Should the prescribed cleaning intervals prove incompatible with the
operation of the ship, please contact ABB Turbo Systems.

Wet cleaning

Principle of wet cleaning

Water is injected before the compressor wheel via an injection pipe fitted
in the filter silencer or the suction branch in order to clean the compressor
stage in operation.

Due to the danger of corrosion, only clean water may be used, and on
no account salt water. The water should also contain no cooling additives, which could form deposits in the flow ducts.
CAUTION

Version 4

HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

The water does not act as a solvent in the process, but the deposit is removed by the mechanical impact of the drops. The process is ideal, provided the soiling is not too advanced.

January 2007

5.4 Cleaning turbine blades and nozzle ring in


operation
Combustion of heavy fuel oil in diesel engines causes soiling of the turbine blades and nozzle rings of the turbochargers.
Soiling increases with time, so that regular and properly performed cleaning is important to remove the accumulated deposits.
The exhaust gas temperature downstream of the cylinders can rise and
the charging pressure at the air receiver can fall if turbine components become soiled.

Experience in operation has shown that despite periodic cleaning during


operation, it is impossible to dispense with overhauls during which the turbine and nozzle ring are mechanically cleaned. However, if cleaning is
performed correctly and the cleaning system is properly dimensioned, the
intervals between overhauls can be extended.
Wet cleaning interval

The interval between periodic cleaning depends in large measure on the


operating conditions. In general, cleaning should be carried out every 50
to 500 operating hours.

Interval for dry cleaning

The interval between periodic cleaning depends in large measure on the


operating conditions. In general, cleaning should be carried out every 20
to 50 operating hours.

Version 4

HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

A soiled turbine also results in rotor unbalance. Severe soiling can lead to
impermissibly high rotor imbalance.

Cleaning methods

Wet cleaning
Dry cleaning

During wet cleaning using droplets of water, the water does not act as a
solvent. Instead, the deposit is removed by the mechanical impact of the
drops.

Due to the danger of corrosion, only clean water may be used, and on
no account salt water. The water should also contain no cooling additives, which could form deposits in the flow ducts.
CAUTION

Principle of dry cleaning

During dry cleaning using dry solid particles in granulate form, the deposit
is removed by the mechanical impact of the grains hitting the surface.

Cleaning of the turbine-side components begins after engine start or


reduction of engine load. The exhaust temperature must not exceed the
value specified in the corresponding cleaning instructions (see the respective section Operating state preconditions).

Failure to maintain the prescribed exhaust temperature upstream of the


turbine, and to allow the minimum stabilising time before and between
cleaning procedures and the drying time after cleaning in accordance
with the pertinent cleaning instructions will shorten the expected service
life of the components significantly.

If several turbochargers are installed on one engine, we recommend cleaning the turbocharger turbines with nozzle rings one after the other.

5.4.1 Wet cleaning the turbine and nozzle ring during operation at partial
power
The maximum exhaust gas temperature specified by the engine manufacturer and the TMmax temperature as shown on the turbocharger rating plate
must not be exceeded under any circumstances. During wet cleaning, the
turbine is braked and the turbocharger operates at reduced speed. As a
result, less air is supplied to the engine and the temperature after the engine cylinder and exhaust valve rises.

NOTE

Points to remember when


cleaning

If cleaning is still unsuccessful after three attempts and the engine operating values are unsatisfactory, we recommend that the turbocharger
be checked and cleaned by an official ABB Turbo Systems service station.

The gas outlet casing must be drained of water via the drain pipe (8)

when cleaning.

The exhaust-gas temperature after the turbocharger falls significantly

Version 4

during cleaning (by 50 to 150C).


Outflow can (but need not) take place through the drain-pipe, depending on the engine load. This outflow might not start for 2 - 3 minutes, or
it may not occur at all.
If draining is not carried out, the turbocharger speed and / or gas inlet
temperature must be monitored closely during the washing operation. If
the load is too low, water can collect in the gas outlet casing. Signs of
this are a sudden fall in the turbocharger speed or very rapid increase
in the gas inlet temperature. In either of these cases, the washing operation must be terminated and the washing cycle begun again with a
lower water pressure or higher engine loading.

HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

If the cleaning operation is unsuccessful, it can be repeated up to 2 times.

5.4.2 Integrated dry cleaning of the turbine and nozzle ring during operation
This cleaning method is not suitable for removing thick dirt deposits and
must therefore be carried out more often (see chapter Cleaning turbine
blades and nozzle ring in operation).
NOTE

In order to carry out a successful cleaning procedure that has been


tested and is recommended by ABB Turbo Systems, the following preconditions must be met:
NOTE

Z High engine output (50 to 100%) and high turbocharger speed.


Z Gas inlet temperature upstream of the turbine must be below 590C.

Otherwise, there is considerable danger that the dry cleaning agent


will be burnt off.
X Start the cleaning cycle with reference to the following description

Lubricating oil leaks are a fire hazard.
WARNING

The instructions of the engine manufacturer for operation of the engine


with locked / isolated turbocharger must be followed precisely in all cases!
HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

CAUTION

If the diesel engine must be capable of operation again as soon as possible after damage to the turbocharger (emergency repair), the following
possibilities are available:
Lock the turbocharger rotor
Blocking the inlets and outlets

9.2 Locking the rotor

CAUTION

NOTE

The only exceptions are test rig runs up to a maximum of 25% engine
load on new engines with one or a number of turbochargers, which are
requested by some customers. Since in these cases operation with a
locked rotor is brief and the loads are small, subsequent disassembly of
the rotor is unnecessary.

NOTE

CAUTION

Various intermediate rings are provided with the locking device for different compressor wheels. The compressor wheel type CV (for the
balancing screw holes) must be noted. The space between the locking
flange (94003) and the assembly-disassembly device (90020) must be
compensated by the intermediate rings (94001 and/or 94002) depending on the version of compressor wheel.

During operation of the engine with a locked turbocharger, the lubrication oil system must also remain connected to this turbocharger and turned on if the gas inlet cannot be blocked (see section Further measures
and information for operation with a locked rotor for 2-stroke engines).
Otherwise components that are still intact can be damaged by overheating.

HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

U Once unscrewed, balancing screws must not be screwed in again.

Version 4

The supply of lubricating oil to the turbocharger must be shut off in the
event of a lubricating oil leak on the turbocharger.

2-stroke engine with one
turbocharger:

No further measures are necessary. The engine can be operated with the
auxiliary blower according to the instructions of the manufacturer.

HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

2-stroke engine with several turbochargers:

X The compensator at the compressor outlet must be dismantled and the

air duct blocked at the engine end, as undamaged turbochargers develop a receiver pressure.
X The operating limit of the engine can be raised by additionally blocking
the gas inlet, as the exhaust gas is then used to drive the undamaged
turbocharger. The loading and temperature of the locked rotor are also
reduced.

If the gas inlet cannot be blocked, the following operating limits must be
observed:
The pressure in the charge-air receiver must not exceed 1 bar over-

pressure.
Max. permissible engine load: 50%.

Attention must be paid to the speed of the undamaged turbochargers in


all cases. The rotating speed limit nBmax according to the turbocharger
rating plate must not be exceeded.

10 Mothballing the turbocharger


10.1 Taking out of operation for up to 12 months
If a turbocharger has to be laid up for up to 12 months, the decision
whether the turbocharger needs special protection or not depends mainly
on the condition of the lubricating oil before laying up.
If the Total Acid Number (TAN) is lower than 2 mg KOH/g no special
measures need to be taken. However, if the neutralisation factor is higher
the turbocharger must be dismantled after laying up, cleaned and protective oil must be applied to the naked parts.

HZTL2491_EN (TPL85-B14/-B15/-B16)

If the turbocharger is left mounted on the engine, and the engine oil is replaced by a protective oil which is circulated with a pre-lubrication pump
prior to laying up, no measures need to be taken in respect of the turbocharger. The remains of the old engine oil will be washed away and the
sensitive bearing parts will be largely protected against corrosion.

Version 4

If the rotor turns due to a draught from the flue, fit a blind flange between
the compressor casing and the charge-air duct.
