  • OGV Slide Valve Low-Load Emissions Evaluation
    OGV Slide Valve Low-Load Emissions Evaluation CONVENTIONAL SLIDE FUEL VALVE FUEL VALVE Technology Manufacturer MAN Diesel & Turbo A/S Co-Participants MAN Diesel & Turbo A/S Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding Co, LTD Starcrest Consulting Group, LLC Background In 2008, the Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Long Beach participated in a demonstration of slide-type fuel valves to quantify their effectiveness as an emissions reduction retrofit technology for ocean-going vessels (OGVs) equipped with Tier 0 and Tier 1 two-stroke diesel main engines1. The demonstration was conducted aboard the APL Singapore. This new type of OGV main engine fuel valve is designed to improve combustion properties by eliminating sac volume (i.e., fuel drips) at the valve nozzle. The elimination of the sac volume results in lower fuel oil consumption. In addition, slide valve nozzles incorporate an optimized spray pattern designed to improve the combustion process - this is intended to reduce overall emissions, including hydrocarbon, NOx and particulate matter. The visible smoke level is also greatly reduced as a result of the improved combustion. The manufacturer, MAN Diesel & Turbo A/S (MDT), had previously published data suggesting slide valves offered a potential for a 30% reduction in NOx emissions and 25% reduction in DPM emissions when the technology is optimized in new engines. The results from the 2008 APL Singapore slide valve retrofit demonstration, although ultimately inconclusive, seemed to suggest that the use of slide valves as an OGV main engine retrofit technology might not provide the level of emission reductions originally anticipated. In addition to the APL data, new information provided by the manufacturer also indicated that potential benefits from slide valves could be eroded as engine load is reduced.

  • Steam Engine Collection
    STEAM ENGINE COLLECTION The New England Museum of Wireless And Steam Frenchtown Road ~ East Greenwich, R.I. International Mechanical Engineering Heritage Collection Designated September 12, 1992 The American Society of Mechanical Engineers INTRODUCTION It has been said that an operating steam engine is ‘visual music’. The New England Museum of Wireless and Steam provides the steam engine enthusiast, the mechanical engineer and the public at large with an opportunity to experience the ‘music’ when the engines are in steam. At the same time they can appreciate the engineering skills of those who designed the engines. The New England Museum of Wireless and Steam is unusual among museums in its focus on one aspect of mechanical engineering history, namely, the history of the steam engine. It is especially rich in engines manufactured in Rhode Island, a state which has had an influence on the history of the steam engine in the United States out of all proportion to its size and population. Many of the great names in the design and manufacture of steam engines received their training in Rhode Island, most particularly in the shops of the Corliss Steam Engine Co. in Providence. George H. Corliss, an important contributor to steam engine technology, founded his company in Providence in 1846. Engines that used his patent valve gear were built in large numbers by the Corliss company, and by others, both in the United States and abroad, either under license or in various modified forms once the Corliss patent expired in 1870. The New England Museum of Wireless and Steam is particularly fortunate in preserving an example of a Corliss engine built by the Corliss Steam Engine Company.

The locomotive is bolted down to the crate, use a long phillips screwdriver and a wrench to remove the 4 bolts. Lift the plate and locomotive form the case. Place the board on a hard surface and using a razor knife cut along the board edge. Carefully pull off the tape and plastic from the locomotive. Discard all tape and plastic. The tender is housed in foam and paper. Simply lift out being careful of the ladder and lamps General Information Operating a live steam model is different than a electrically powered version. It is a hands on interactive model. Never leave any working engines unattended once the burner is lit or if the locomotive under way. Always know where and how the locomotive is operating including the boiler water levels. • Always read and understand the manual prior to operation for the first time • Always maintain the lubrication on the motion parts and lubricator as it is designed for extended run times. The lubricator will last for about 45-60mins • Never let the engine run completely out of water – if the locomotive suddenly stops and there is still pressure or if the glass is empty shut down the burner. DO NOT ADD WATER TO A HOT EMPTY BOILER • When filing the butane gas tank keep away from any open flame or passing by locomotives, especially Alcohol fired locomotives.

Discussion : The Air Cooled Series R Chiller (RTAA) is designed with 2, 3, or 4 compressors, that include modulating slide valves, that vary the capacity of the compressor. The slide valve is operated by a piston/cylinder assembly. The piston/cylinder assembly is powered by oil pressure that is regulated by two "normally closed" solenoid valves. These valves are called the load and unload solenoid valves (Note: The load solenoid valve is mounted closest to the compressor motor). The coil on each solenoid valve is 110 VAC.

  • Slide Valves: Small Things That Mean a Lot

In the six years since they were released, the latter attribute has become the object of much investigation. “Using computational fl uid dynamics, we modeled the effect of changing the number of holes, the spray angels and spray patterns,” says Kjeld Aabo, Director of Promotion and Customer Support for MAN B&W. “This reduces the concentration of fuel oil at the injection point, resulting in smaller peak temperatures in the combustion chamber. Changing combustion conditions changes NOx emissions,” he explains. “The benefi t Cross sections of he fuel injector slide valve has been is not related to the slide valve as such, but fuel-valve nozzle Thailed by industry and regulators as to the spray pattern.

  • FL-11 Injector Single Line, Parallel
    FL-11 Injector Single Line, Parallel General Higher injector outputs make these units well suited to satisfy lubrication needs of medium and large machines. In addition, higher output pressures of make injectors ideally suited for equipment operating in harsh environments. Single and manifold type for dispensing fluid lubricant and grease. Recommend NLGI #2 grade grease or lighter. Technical Data Minimum Operating Pressure 1000 psi (68 bar) Maximum Operating Pressure 3500 psi (238 bar) Minimum Adjustable Output .050 cu. in. (.819cc) Maximum Adjustable Output .500 cu. in. (8.19cc) Lubrication Inlet 1/2” NPT female Lubricant Outlet 1/4” NPT female Maximum Vent (Recharge Pressure) 800 psi (55 bar) Installation Output Adjustment The FL-11 injector’s output is adjusted with the hex screw on top. Minimum output of approximately .050 cu. in. is obtained when the adjusting screw is turned into the injector, hand tight. To obtain the maximum output of .500 cu. in., start at the minimum setting and turn the screw approximately 12 turns, out of the injector. Each turn of the screw is approximately .040 cu. in. output. When the injector is adjusted to a half turn open or less, output from the injector should be verified. Disassembly Instructions 1. Remove the adjustment adapter from the top of the injector. Remove the piston assembly, spring and spacer from inside the injector. 2. Remove the inlet adapter from the bottom of the injector. To remove the slide valve assembly, turn injector over, with the top pointing down. If the slide valve does not fall out, it may be pushed out of the slide valve packings with a blunt object, being careful not to scratch or cut the packings in the slide valve body.

  • Recreating Steam Power at WPI
    4/25/2019 MQP Paper - Google Docs Recreating Steam Power at WPI A Major Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree in Bachelor of Science In Mechanical Engineering By: ______________________________ Thomas Kouttron _______________________________ Michael Cooke Date: 4/24/2019 Project Advisor _____________________ Professor Robert Daniello https://docs.google.com/document/d/1__1jhvbfd688-3nBVz9gUzaLhqx1cuTKHs9gtKiRHOI/edit#heading=h.dgja1fbq1rih 1/215 4/25/2019 MQP Paper - Google Docs Abstract Steam power made possible the early growth and success of WPI as an Institution. Beginning in the late 1800’s three large stationary Steam Engines were used to power all of the equipment in the Washburn Shops and provide auxiliary electricity before municipal electrification. Researching original archive photos of the WPI Powerhouse sparked an interest in steam engine technology, the group launched a plan to design, manufacture and construct a 1/5 scale model of the original, Fitchburg-built Putnam Steam Engine, using modern manufacturing practices to recreate the engine in period correct materials. The engine was recreated without original drawings, working only from photos, period books and scaling of original design to ensure that the engine would function properly at a smaller scale. Period correct materials and casting processes were researched to ensure that all components would perform properly and to identify suitable, cost effective modern manufacturing techniques. Major engine components were cast from wood patterns made in the Higgins Labs shop. Various manual and CNC machining techniques were employed. Work commenced in August to build a running scale engine, which was completed and ready for testing in late March.
