2-stroke engines
The current low-speed engine portfolio comprises the Wrtsil RTA and RT-flex engine types which cover a power range from 5100 kW to 80,080 kW. Wrtsil RTA-series engines: Traditional camshaft-controlled low-speed diesel engine Wrtsil RT-flex engines: Based on the RTA-series but have electronicallycontrolled common-rail systems for fuel injection and valve actuation. These engines are marketed world-wide for application in the propulsion of all types of deep-sea ships. Low-speed engines are developed, designed, marketed and serviced by Wrtsil. The engines are manufactured by specialised engine manufacturing companies under licence from Wrtsil Switzerland.

Intake of air and gas

Compression of air and gas

Ignition by pilot diesel fuel

The gas is mixed with air before the intake valves. After the compression phase, the gas-air mixture is ignited by a small amount of liquid pilot fuel.

Intake of air Compression of air Injection of diesel fuel

This is a normal diesel process with camshaft-operated liquid fuel pumps running in parallel with the process and working as a stand-by. The engine can be switched automatically from fuel oil to gas operation at loads below 80 % of the full load.

Gas-diesel engines operating principle


Gas mode: The gas is injected at high pressure after the pilot fuel and is ignited by the flame from the pilot fuel injection. Liquid Fuel mode: The gas-diesel engine can be switched over instantly to operation. The liquid fuel can be light fuel oil, heavy fuel oil or crude oil. The process is the same as the conventional diesel process. Fuel Sharing mode: The ratio between liquid and gas fuel amounts can be controlled and varied during operation. The operating window is 35 to 90% load and the gas/liquid fuel ratio can vary from 80/20 to 15/85. The gas-diesel process can tolerate big variations in the gas quality and is especially suitable for non-pipeline quality gas, such as associated gas in oil fields.

SG engines operating principle

The SG engines are spark-ignited leanburn engines. The gas is mixed with air before the inlet valves. The gas is also fed into a small prechamber, where the gas mixture is rich compared to the gas in the cylinder. The gas-air mixture in the prechamber is ignited by a spark plug. The flames from the nozzle of the prechamber ignite the gas-air mixture in the whole cylinder.

25

Wrtsil 17 March 2010 Engine products / WLSA

The lean-burn concept

In a lean-burn gas engine, the mixture of air and gas in the cylinder is lean, i.e. more air is present in the cylinder than is needed for complete combustion. With leaner combustion, the peak temperature is reduced and less NOX is produced. Higher output can be reached while avoiding knocking and the efficiency is increased as well, although a too lean mixture will cause misfiring
