Technology UpdatesCylinder lubricant distribution principle, key for reliability
11 © 2020 WinGD WinGD Two-Stroke DF / LNG Technology Update - Konrad Räss
– The Pulse Jet cyl. lubricating system in combination with patented lubricating oil grooves plus updated pump and nozzle design results in an excellent oil distribution
– Large list of validated cylinder oils support user to select the correct oil and to optimise the feed rates
– Very low wear rates of cylinder liners and piston rings
– It has been clearly demonstrated that WinGD’s tribology concept and engine design is well suited to the operating conditions expected into 2020 and beyond (0 up to 3.5% and higher sulphur fuels)
– Feed rate optimised according to scrape down oil analysis for residual BN and total iron

WinGD Lubricants Guideline

Find the guide at wingd.com
Search Validated Cylinder Oils to see the latest version
₋ New oil list with detailed usage guideline for each product introduced beginning of June 2020
₋ Not every oil from the same BN category has the same usage guideline to consider the different formulations (e.g. detergency, thermal stability, etc.) and the results of the field tests performed.
₋ New list very transparent and customer friendly. The customer can better compare the oils and the usage differences are clearly visible. This will also push the oil companies to develop better products to be competitive on the premium segment. Additionally, it justifies the price differences for the premium products which was previously not obvious.

Operation of WinGD Engines with VLSFO and LNG
23 © 2020 WinGD
Conclusions₋ Use of VLSFO did not lead to an increased number of damage reports.
₋ Our tribology concept works for all fuels from LNG to 3.5 % S.
₋ WinGD considers lubricant oil as a design element of that engine itself. The correct lubricant is key for reliable engine operation.
₋ WinGD works together with the oil companies to develop cylinder oils with higher cleaning ability.
₋ The latest lubricant guideline gives a more transparent insight of how products were tested.
₋ No component changes are required for 2020 compliant fuels.

Implementation, recommendations and conclusions
Switch over to VLSFO
Naeem Javaid15 October 2020
Potential safety implications – expressed pre 2020 + IMO MEPC:
• Fuel grade variability
• Stability of fuel supplied
• Cold flow properties
• Flash point
• Ignition quality
• Acid number
• Cat fines
• Annex VI Reg 18.3 – IMO
• ISO Clause 5 ( chemicals)
• Compatibility challenges

Acid Number Distribution
Lloyd's Register 35
Increase in AN is mainly associate with Naphthenic Acid found in blends stocks
But can be an indicator of deleterious materials which may be revealed through more investigative analysis such as extended GCMS

VLSFO impact on combustion
Lloyd's Register 39
2 Stroke engines – wear problems
What the data and experience feedback tell us …………
✓Fuel grade variability - confirmed here to stay
✓Stability of fuel supplied – confirmed marked rise in off spec and sludge cases
✓Cold flow properties – confirmed marked rise in pourpoint and high melt wax
❑Flash point – a slight rise in the DM fuels not in the VLSFO
❑Ignition quality – reported combustion issue but found as – CLO BN feed rate issues
❑Acid number - some rise in certain areas – mostly related to naphthenic blend
✓Cat fines –mostly within limit but need attention
❑Annex VI Reg 18.3 – (Quality Compliance) – monitoring
❑ISO Clause 5 (overall acceptance - chemicals) – Monitoring
✓Compatibility - remains but overall being well managed
VLSFO Quality – what data suggests
Lloyd's Register40
Lessons learnt! – do not drop your guard ………….
● Proactive fuel management
● Knowledge of fuel as loaded
● Temperature / Treatment / Storage management
