REASON OF TURBOCHARGER DAMAGE

Diesel Engine Exhaust Turbocharger Failure 

Turbochargers are among the foremost technologically advanced engine element aboard ship. impeller blades of a medium sized turbocharger often rotate at the maximum amount as 400 revolutions per second. The outer edges of the rotor blades therefore move at 1.5 times the speed of sound.

In the method, the turbocharger digests contaminated exhaust gases of up to 700 degrees centigrade. Thus, the turbocharger may be a terribly sensitive piece of high-speed machinery incessantly serving in harsh conditions and underneath extreme strain. Being on the receiving end of gas flows, turbocharger damages are typically caused by the failure of varied upstream elements.


(1) Diesel engine inlet pressure to reduce main reasons:
(a) the compressor of the filter contamination.
(b) the impeller and vanes diffuser contamination.
(c) the supercharger turbo memory have more carbon deposit, spin resistance increase.
(d) the inter-cooler contamination, increased intake resistance.
(e) turbine exhaust not clear, this is because the pipe blockage, deformation caused by rotor speed rise is  not high.
(f)supercharger outlet pressure drop suddenly, it is because of bearing damage caused by.


(2) Compressor surge main reasons:
(a) diesel engine emergency cut-off or sudden unloading (urgent throttle back).
(b) the atmospheric temperature changes cause surge. In the summer of the supercharger with test, in winter could happen surge, this is because the temperature change make working point change and cause.
(c) compressor contamination, especially vanes diffuser contamination.
(d) a engine plant 2 sets of supercharger, Shared a piece of inlet manifold, when a cylinder does not work, can lead compressor surge.


(3) Diesel engine inlet pressure is too high. Generally speaking, the inlet pressure is too high in the supercharger itself is not the problem, but by the engine of the cause, the main reasons are:
(a) the vent valve leakage.
(b) because of engine fuel injection timing inappropriate or other causes for combustion period is too long, to drive a turbine heat increase, speed up, inlet pressure increase.


(4) Produce continuous abnormal sound: this kind of failure is due to the majority of rotor and shell as a result of the collision. Due to the rotor and shell assembly clearance is small, if installation misadjustment or bearing serious damage, then hitting.


(5) The lubricating oil temperature is too high (above 105 ℃) of the main reasons:
(a) the turbine oil, gas seal damage, high temperature gas into the oil chamber.
(b) the bearing damage.


(6) Oil leakage: compressor seal close to the edge of the impeller is low pressure area, easy to produce the oil leakage fault. Main reasons are:
(a) the lubricating oil return not free. The reason has return line congestion, return line sectional area is too small, pipe joint gasket inner hole diameter less than return line; Diesel engine in the crankcase oil level higher than standard, cause oil return difficult; Diesel engine crankcase ventilation blocking or cylinder seal bad, gas expell, make the crankcase internal pressure rise.
(b) the compressor end O ring damage or material ageing and lose sealing effect.


(c) turbocharger oil inlet pressure is too high. Normal pressure is 0.25 ~ 0400000 mpa, if pressure is higher than 0.6 million mpa, from exhaust muffler nozzle will find from the supercharger turbo end leakage oil.
(d) ring not installed correctly or damage.

CARGO OIL PUMP TURBINE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS


STARTING 

1.      Check all the turbine lubricating oil sumps for water using the sump
         drain valve and drain as necessary.

2.      Top up the oils to slightly above the working level.

3.      Check and replenish the governor oil levels.

4.      Open the cargo oil pump turbine vacuum condenser inlet and outlet SW
         valves.

5.      Check that the seawater overboard valve is full open.

6.      Open the vacuum condenser cooling seawater pump suction and
         discharge valves.

7.      Start the vacuum cooling seawater pump. Vent any air from the
         condensers.

8.      Open the air ejector condenser inlet and outlet cooling FW valves.

9.      Open all cargo oil pumps lubricating oil cooler inlet and outlet FW
         valves. Cooling water is supplied from the low temperature cooling
         fresh water system.

10.    Start the local cargo oil pump turbine pre-lubricating oil pumps.

11.    Check the oil levels in the lubricating oil sumps. Check that oil pressure
         reaches the priming pressure of 0.3kg/cm

12.    Ensure that the trip cylinders move out and that the trip latch is in a
         position to engage.

13.    Open the cargo oil pump turbine exhaust valves.

14.    Open the vacuum condenser condensate pump suction and discharge
         valves, balance line valves and the condenser recirculation and level
         control valves.

15.    Start one condensate pumps and ensure that the hot well level remains
        normal.

16.    Prepare and warm through the air ejector steam lines.

17.    Open the air ejector condenser drain to the vacuum condenser valves.

18.    Full vacuum will not be achieved until gland steam is supplied to the
        turbines.

19.    Open all the turbine drain valves, steam chest drain valves, individual
        steam line drain valves, low point steam trap valves and drain separator
        steam trap drain valves.

20.    Slowly and carefully open the cargo oil pump main steam stop warming
        through valve.

21.    Warm and drain the steam lines and turbines, closing in the drains as
        necessary.

22.    Warm through and supply gland steam to the turbine gland systems.

23.    If inert gas is required prior to the starting of the cargo pumps open
         the inlet and outlet valves to the main steam dump valve and set the
         boiler to IGS top up mode.

24.     Put the required COP on worm up mode and it will rotate at 200 r.p.m.
         for set time.

25.     Change over the COP control to remote.


STOPPING

1.      Close the cargo oil pump turbine main steam stop valve and close all
         the gland steam valves.

2.      Open all the turbine, line and steam chest drains.

3.      Ensure that all the lubricating oil-priming pumps are running.

4.      Close the cargo oil pump turbine exhaust valves.

5.      If the vacuum condenser is not required for any other service shut down
         the air ejector(s).

6.      Stop the condensate pump. Leave operational in case the condenser hot
         well level rises due to condensation.

7.      Leave the sea water-cooling operating for at least two hours.

8.      When the system has cooled down, close the lubricating oil cooler water
         supply valves.

9.      Leave the lubricating pumps running to reduce corrosion in the turbine
        gearing.


10.   Shut down the fresh water-cooling to the air ejector condenser and
    seawater cooling to the vacuum condenser.
