    AIR SYSTEM
    I. INTRODUCTION
    Compressed air is used to start engines and to provide actuating energy
    for safety and control devices. The use of starting air for other purposes is limited
    by the classification regulations. To ensure the functionality of the components in
    the compressed air system, the compressed air has to be free from solid particles
    and oil.

    II. OBJECTIVES
    1. Understand the compressed air system for the engine.
    2. Calculate and determine compressor specification for compressed air system
    at ship.
    3. Drawing the compressed air system.

    V. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
    The compressed air system on the engine consists of a starting system, starting
    control system and safety system. Further, the system supplies air to the jet system and the
    stop cylinders on each fuel injection pump.
    The compressed air is supplied from the starting air receivers (30 bar) through a reduction
    station, where from compressed air at max. 10 bar is supplied to the engine. The reduction
    station should be located as near the starting air receiver as possible. To avoid dirt
    particles in the internal system, a strainer equipped with a drain valve is mounted in the
    inlet line to the engine.
    Starting System
    The engine is started by means of a built-on air starter, which is a turbine
    motor with gear box, safety clutch and drive shaft with pinion. Further, there is a
    main starting valve.
    Control System
    The air starter is activated electrically with a pneumatic 3/2-way solenoid
    valve. The valve can be activated manually from the starting box on the engine,
    and it can be arranged for remote control, manual or automatic.
    For remote activation the starting coil is connected so that every starting
    signal to the starting coil goes through the safe start function which is connected
    to the safety system mounted on the engine. Further, the starting valve also acts as
    an emergency starting valve which makes it possible to activate the air starter
    manually in case of power failure.
    Safety System
    As standard the engine is equipped with an emergency stop. It consists of
    one on-off valve, see diagram, which activates one stop cylinder on each fuel
    injection pump. Air supply must not be interrupted when the engine is running.

    AIR SYSTEM
    When the starting valve is opened, air will be sup plied to the drive shaft
    housing of the air starter. The air supply will - by activating a piston - bring the
    drive pinion into engagement with the gear rim on the engine flywheel.
    When the pinion is fully engaged, the pilot air will flow to, and open the
    main starting valve, whereby air will be led to the air starter, which will start to
    turn the engine.
    When the RPM exceeds approx. 158, at which firing has taken place, the
    starting valve is closed whereby the air starter is disengaged.

    The compressed air system on the engine consist of a starting system, starting
    control system, and safety system. The compressed air is supplied from the starting air
    receivers (30 bar) through reduction station, where from compressed air at max. 10 bar is
    supplied to the engine. The reduction station should be located as near the starting air
    receiver as possible. To avoid the dirt particles in the internal system, a strainer equipped

    VIII.2 Starting Air Receiver Choosen
    Compressed Air Vessels Specification:
    Brand = Mellcon
    Volume = 750 Litres
    Max. Pressure = 30 bar
    Height = 1450 mm
    Diameter = 750 mm

    VIII.3 Calculation of Compressor

    According to the project guide of MAN B&W L27/38, all of the starting air
    receivers should be pressurized to 30 bar for approximately 60 minutes. In artic condition,
    it shall be 30 minutes. Compressors are to be installed with total capacity sufficient for
    charging air receivers of capacities specified from atmospheric to full pressure in the
    course of one hour. Two or more compressors of total capacity as specified are to be
    installed. So, here’s the calculation :

    Q =( V x 30 ) / 1000
    P = Total capacity of the compressors (m3/h)
    V = Total volume of the starting air reciever (dm3) at service pressure of 30 bar)
    Q = ( 1500 x 30 ) / 1000
    Q = 45 m3/h

    So after we know the total capacity of the compressor, now we can chose the
    compressor. Here’s the compressor specification that choosen.

    VIII.4 Compressor Chosen

    Brand = HATLAPA
