Stay Bolt Failure Investigation, S90ME-C9.2 AVH/LDD1 < 4 >
Stay Bolt Failure Investigation, S90ME-C9.2 Background Although broken stay bolts are occasionally seen on engines in service, the frequency of failures is now higher for the S90ME-C9.2 engines than what is usually expected. In addition, the broken stay bolts have been concentrated around the chain drive, suggesting that the root cause is linked to the chain drive for the Hydraulic Power Supply. Measurements From recent measurements carried out on two 11S90ME-C9.2 engines with stay bolt breakage, it was observed that the stay bolts nearest to the chain drive were vibrating resonantly at an engine speed from 57 RPM to 60 RPM. Root cause Stay bolts nearest chain drive are sensitive to vibrations caused by the chain drive at frequencies of 66 th order of crankshaft revolution speed. The excitation is most likely originating from the polygon effect from the 66 teeth module per round of the chain wheels in the chain drive.. AVH/LDD1 < 5 >

JBC can be retrofitted on engines with JBB Load Dependent Cylinder Liner (LDCL) cooling system is standard on Mk 9.2 and later versions of both S and G engine types Early versions of G type engines are only prepared with LDCL pipes not a fully functional LDCL system. A fully functional LDCL system can be retrofitted on these engines Load Dependent High Temperature (LDHT) cooling system is a pre-runner for the LDCL system.

Increasing Liner Temperature Rating Dependent Liner (RDL) Traditionally cylinder liners are designed for L1 rating MEP (rating) dependent liners can reduce the potential cold corrosion Therefore, it has been decided that three different liner designs will be used for each engine type. The border lines will be based on MEP and are: L1, L1-8%, L1-16%, L4. < 26 >
Rating Dependent Liner (RDL) Example: G70ME-C9.5 A new Rating Dependent liner is designed so as the temperature is the same as at high rating. Focus is in the upper part of the liner (first 300mm). L1Liner RDL Liner 30 mm 20 mm shorter Liner position [m] < 27 >

Cylinder Oil Lubrication A minimum of oil is needed to keep the moving parts from seizing. However, the cylinder oil is also used to provide alkalinity (BN) to neutralise the H 2 SO 4 formed during combustion. The oil dosed according to an ACC feed rate factor, which multiplied with the fuel sulphur % gives the feed rate. SBJ-LEO 3339347.2014.05.02 < 33 >
Drain Oil Cylinder oil Cylinder oil is injected in the compression stroke, every 1 to 20 revolutions, depending on basic feed rate and engine load. Drain oil The rate of system oil transfer depends on the engine speed and the condition of the stuffing box. SBJ-LEO 3339348.2014.05.02 < 34 >
