0050−1/A1 Operation General Short Description of the Engine General General data about the engine are given as follows: The W−X engine is a single acting, two-stroke diesel engine of crosshead design with exhaust gas turbocharging and uniflow scavenging. The engine is reversible and is directly connected to the propeller. The W−X concept is based on the Common Rail System, with full electronic control of the fuel injection system and the exhaust valve operation.
Page 36
0050−1/A1 Operation Short Description of the Engine The exhaust gases flow from the cylinders through the exhaust valves into the exhaust gas manifold. The turbocharger uses the pressure of the exhaust gas to operate the compressor. The scavenge air from the turbocharger flows through the air cooler and water separator into the air receiver.
Page 37
0060−1/A1 Operation General Two-stroke Diesel Engine − Operation Piston Movement First Stroke (Compression) The sequence of piston movements during the compression stroke is as follows: The piston is at BDC (see Fig. 1). The scavenge ports and exhaust valve are open. Scavenge air flows into the cylinder and pushes the exhaust gas through the exhaust valve into the exhaust gas manifold and then to the turbocharger.

During maneuvering, it is possible to operate the engine from the control room, the bridge or the local maneuvering stand.
0210−1/A1 Operation Safety Precautions and Warnings (General Information) Lighting There must be good permanent lighting. Also, hand lamps must be available at different locations in the engine room. Clean Areas CAUTION Damage Hazard. Do not use water or cleaning fluids to clean the UNIC electronic control boxes on the rail unit.
0210−1/A1 Operation Safety Precautions and Warnings (General Information) Tools Put hand-tools in locations where you can easily get access to them. Put special tools and devices in positions in the engine room near the area where you use them. All tools must be prevented from unwanted movement and must have protection from corrosion.
0210−1/A1 Operation Safety Precautions and Warnings (General Information) Temperature WARNING Danger: If you think that parts of the running gear or bearings have become too hot, it is possible that the engine must be shut down. Before you open the crankcase doors, you must wait for a minimum of 20 minutes.
0210−1/A1 Operation Safety Precautions and Warnings (General Information) 13. Turning Gear The lubricating oil pump must operate if possible, but the oil pressure cannot fully increase when the exhaust valves are open. WARNING Injury Hazard: After an air run the crankshaft can turn suddenly when the pressurized air in the cylinder releases.
0220−1/A1 Operation Operation during Usual Conditions Slow Turning General To make sure that the running gear turns freely, it is recommended (as long as the classification society did not make more primary specifications) to turn the crankshaft a minimum of one full turn before start-up. Note: This does not apply if the engine was stopped during a maneuvering period.

Turn the rotary knob to set the fuel injection quantity to approximately 15%. Push the button START AHEAD or START ASTERN until the engine operates. Slowly turn rotary knob to adjust the fuel injection quantity until the engine operates at the necessary speed.
Page 73
0240−1/A1 Operation Operation Usual Operation General To get the best performance, operate the engine at constant power. You must only change the engine load and / or speed slowly, unless there are unusual conditions. Checks and Precautions During usual operation, you must do regular checks and use precautions. This lets you operate the engine without problems.
Page 74
0240−1/A1 Operation Usual Operation Keep the correct scavenge air temperature downstream of the air cooler with the usual water flow (see 0250−1 Operating Data Sheet). A higher scavenge air temperature will give an unsatisfactory quantity of scavenge air in the cylinder. This will cause more fuel to be used and higher exhaust gas temperatures.
Page 75
0240−1/A1 Operation Usual Operation When you listen to the engine, unusual noises will show that there is a possible defect. Hand-drawn diagrams give data about the combustion process and pressures in the cylinder (see 0420−1 Indicator Diagrams). When the quality of the fuel used changes (diesel oil, HFO from different bunkerings), the maximum pressure in the cylinder at service power must be found as soon as possible.

Page 83
0260−1/A1 Operation Operation Manoeuvring General Correct maneuvering, with a subsequent increase in engine load up to service power and a decrease in load from service power, is very important. Engine loads in the higher power ranges that are changed too quickly can cause increased wear and contamination, specially on piston rings and cylinder liners.
Page 84
0260−1/A1 Operation Manoeuvring When HFO is used for maneuvering, the fuel must be heated sufficiently. This keeps the viscosity at the fuel pump inlets in the range given in 0710−1, Fig. 1 Viscosity-Temperature Diagram. The heating of the fuel oil system must stay set to on. Keep the temperature of the cooling media as close as possible to the higher limits given for usual service (see 0250−1 Operating Data Sheet).
Page 85
0260−1/A1 Operation Manoeuvring Reversing Turn the rotary button to 15% fuel injection quantity (see display). Push the button START AHEAD or START ASTERN until the engine runs in the applicable direction. Note: On ships under way, this procedure can be some minutes, because the flow of water has an effect on the propeller.
Page 87
Specially make sure that during the procedures HFO never can flow into the MDO tank and pipe system. Note: WinGD recommends to do a manual change−over only, if an automatic change−over system is not installed or if the automatic change−over system is unserviceable.
Page 88

Gas oils and diesel oils (distillates) can be used in all WinGD engines with some limits. WinGD 2-stroke diesel engines are designed to operate on up to 700 mm (cSt) at 50_viscosity heavy fuel oil (ISO 8217:2010 RMK 700 grade) if sufficient fuel heating and treatment is done.
0710−1/A1 Operation Diesel Engine Fuels Heavy fuel oil must be treated in an applicable fuel treatment plant. When bunkering, it is possible that the fuel suppliers will report only some of the values given in the Quality Specifications. Frequently, only the density and maximum viscosity is given.
Page 157
0710−1/A1 Operation Diesel Engine Fuels In ISO 8217, foreign substances such as used oil or chemical waste must not be added to the fuel. This is because of the hazards to the crew, machines and the environment. Tests that are done for unwanted substances as acids, solvents and monomers with titrimetric, infrared and chromatographic methods, are recommended.
Page 158
Note: For data about the parameters given in the table above, see paragraph to paragraph 3.12. CAUTION Damage Hazard: For WinGD 2-stroke engines, the maximum permitted fuel temperature at the engine inlet is 150_C. Always make sure to obey this limit. Damage to the engine can occur. For more data, see also 0250−1...
0710−1/A1 Operation Diesel Engine Fuels Data about Heavy Fuel Oil Specifications Viscosity The recommended viscosity range upstream of the engine is between 13 mm /s (cSt) and 17 mm /s (cSt). You get the necessary temperature for a given nominal viscosity from the data in Fig.
Sulphur Sulphur limits are not specified in ISO 8217:2010 because statutory specifications put a limit on this value. The maximum sulphur level that can be used in WinGD 2-stroke engines is 4.5% m/m. The alkalinity (base number (BN)) of the cylinder lubricating oil must be selected in relation to the sulphur level of the fuel in use.
0710−1/A1 Operation Diesel Engine Fuels Acid Number Fuels with high acid numbers have caused damage to fuel injection systems. Most fuels have a low acid number, which is not dangerous, but an acid number above 2.5 mg KOH/g, can cause problems. Some naphthenic fuels can have an acid number of more than 2.5 mg KOH/g, but still be permitted.
0710−1/A1 Operation Diesel Engine Fuels 3.11.2 Aluminum and Silicon Aluminum (Al) and silicon (Si) in the fuel are an indication of catalytic fines (cat fines). These are particles of hard oxides (round particles of material almost the same as porcelain) which cause high abrasive wear to pistons, piston rings and cylinder liners. Cat fines are used as a catalyst in some processes in petroleum refining and can be found in diesel engine fuels.

0740−1/A1 Operation Operating Media Scavenge Air and Starting Air Scavenge Air The turbocharger compresses the air from the engine room or from outside for the scavenge air and air for the cylinders, (see 6500−1 Turbocharging). The air must be as clean as possible to keep the wear of cylinder liner, piston rings, turbocharger compressor etc.
Page 175
The oil must also have good thermal stability, anti-corrosion and anti-foam properties, and good demulsifying performance. Note: Validated system oils for WinGD 2-stroke engines are shown in paragraph 8.2. For different or new lubricating oils, speak to or send a message to WinGD.
0750−1/A1 Operation Lubricating Oils Oil Care 2.1.1 System Oil To keep the lubricating oil in good condition for long periods, good oil treatment is necessary. To do this, a self-cleaning centrifugal separator is used. A self-cleaning centrifugal separator is used as a purifier in bypass. The oil flows from the oil tank through the centrifugal separator.

0750−1/A1 Operation Lubricating Oils Oil Samples At regular intervals, (i.e. at approximately each 300 operation hours), it is recommended that you get a sample of the system oil. Send the the sample of the system oil to a laboratory to make an analysis. The analysis must include ISO 4406 particle counts for samples taken from downstream of the coarse filter or fine filter.
0750−1/A1 Operation Lubricating Oils Cylinder Lubricating Oil A high-alkaline cylinder lubricating oil of the SAE 50 viscosity grade that has a minimum kinematic viscosity of 18.5 cSt at 100_C is recommended. But, cylinder lubricating oils of the viscosity grades SAE 40 and SAE 60 can be used in some conditions.
Page 184
0750−1/A1 Operation Lubricating Oils Range 1 (see Fig. 1): When the fuel sulphur content is more than 0.1% m/m and less than 0.5% m/m during operation with BN 15 to BN 25 cylinder lubricating oil, you must do an analysis of the piston underside drain oil from the on-board monitoring system.
Page 185
Note: Use only the cylinder lubricating oils given in paragraph 8.2. The oil company assumes all responsibility for the performance of the cylinder lubricating oils in service of all WinGD 2-stroke engines to the exclusion of any liability of any WinGD company belonging to the WinGD group.
Operation Lubricating Oils Oil Samples − Piston Underside Drain or Scrape-down WinGD recommends to get piston underside drain oil (scrape-down oil) samples at regular intervals from each cylinder and to make an analysis to monitor the engine condition. These analyses are used to make an estimate of the cylinder liner and piston ring wear and to set the applicable alkalinity and feed rate of the cylinder lubricating oil.
Page 187
0750−1/A1 Operation Lubricating Oils It is necessary to find the safe value for continuous operation on fuel oil with a low sulphur content (of between 0.0% m/m and 0.5% m/m) and a low BN cylinder lubricating oil (between BN 15 and BN 25) for each engine. To find this safe value, you monitor the piston underside samples and do regular checks of the pistons, piston rings and cylinder liners for excessive deposits, corrosion and wear.
60% CMCR) and the sulphur content of the used HFO is more than 2.5% m/m, WinGD strongly recommends the use of a BN 100 cylinder lubricating oil, as the cylinder oil feed rate cannot be adjusted to adequately compensate for the lower alkalinity.
0750−1/A1 Operation Lubricating Oils Turbocharger Oil To select the turbocharger lubricating oil and keep this oil in a satisfactory condition, refer to the recommendations given in the turbocharger instruction manual. The turbocharger lubricating oil is usually system oil or turbine oil. Turning Gear Oil To select the turning gear oil and keep this oil in a satisfactory condition, refer to the recommendations given in the instruction manual of the turning gear manufacturer.
Lubricating Oils Validated Lubricating Oils Lubricating Oil Instruction and Liability The application and handling of lubricating oils must be in compliance with the WinGD general lubricating oil specifications and recommendations given in the Operation Manual (this manual) and the Maintenance Manual.
0760−1/A1 Operation Operating Media Cooling Water / Cooling Water Treatment General An applicable treatment is used to give the cooling water the correct properties, which will prevent service problems. Cooling water that has not had treatment can soon cause problems in the cooling system from corrosion, sediment and hard particles (crust).
Page 194
0760−1/A1 Operation Cooling Water / Cooling Water Treatment Cleaning the Cooling Water System For new cooling water, the full system must be clean. The system must not contain grease, oil or unwanted particles. During operation oil or sediment can go into the system, which can cause a decrease in the heat transfer and cooling effect.

6735−1/A1 Operation Scavenge Air Waste Gate General Some engine versions have a scavenge air waste gate, which protects the engine from scavenge air pressure that is too high in arctic conditions (when the outside air temperature is below the related value). The waste gate valve operates as a safety valve, i.e.
Page 418
6735−1/A1 Operation Scavenge Air Waste Gate Operation During usual operation conditions, scavenge air flows through the non-return valve (15, Fig. 2) into the pressure space (PS). This pressure, and the pressure from the compression spring (5), keep the piston (4) (and thus the waste gate valve) in the closed position.
Page 419
6735−1/A1 Operation Scavenge Air Waste Gate Open and Close Phases When the outside air temperature decreases below the values given in Table 1, the solenoid valve (8, Fig. 2) energizes. The scavenge air pressure flows through the pressure reducing valve (9), then through the non-return valve (16) to the pressure space (PS).
Page 420

9308−1/A1 Operation Intelligent Combustion Control Safety User Qualification Note: The Intelligent Combustion Control system can only be installed, operated, serviced and repaired by qualified personnel. Qualified personnel are those who have been trained, appointed and instructed by the system’s user. The personnel are familiar with the relevant standards, provisions, accident-prevention regulations and plant conditions by virtue of their training, experience and instruction.
Page 531
9308−1/A1 Operation Intelligent Combustion Control Function The ICC system is an optional part of the WECS−9520, which adjusts the peak firing pressure of the engine according to engine design criteria. The firing and the compression pressure of all cylinders are balanced by modifying the injection timing and exhaust valve timing within their permitted operation range.
Page 532
9308−1/A1 Operation Intelligent Combustion Control In-cylinder Pressure Evaluation The compression pressure cannot be measured directly because of combustion and fuel injection that can occur before TDC. In the ICC system, the compression pressure of each cycle is calculated using the polynomial formula based on the position of the piston.
Page 533
9308−1/A1 Operation The cylinder pressure raw data of each unit is taken as an analogue input signal from the pressure transducer into the WECS−9520 as shown in the ICC installation overview below (see Fig. 3). Barometric pressure TC compressor inlet temperatures Scavenge air temperatures Dynamic cylinder pressure signals Fig.
Page 534
9308−1/A1 Operation Operation Operation of ICC In the WECS−9520 it is possible to set to on or off each individual sub-function of the ICC system. The system adjusts the necessary average value of the firing pressure to its site-corrected set-point value. This balances the firing pressure of all units and balances the compression pressure.
Page 535
9308−1/A1 Operation When the compression pressure balancing function is set to ON (see Fig. 6) this offset is calculated by ICC system. Fig. 6: Compression Pressure Balancing − Set to ON When the compression pressure balancing function is set to OFF (see Fig. 7), this offset is the same as on the flexView Adjust card adjusted by the operator.
