Problems solved by technology

[0007] This means that currently the fuel for a marine two-stroke engine can be changed in about two to four hours, but since the cylinder oil day tank and associated lines must be replenished with freshly blended oil, the production and modification of the lube oil on board is costly. two to three days
Therefore, the production of lubricating oil suitable for the current conditions of the engine will take time
Delay in delivering oil will mean the engine is less efficient and experiences more wear
[0008] Also, EP 2 767 578 is disadvantageous because the only input to the blender besides used system oil is fresh cylinder oil
This means that the blending process produces a new cylinder oil that is less flexible to the needs of the engine

Embodiment Construction

[0034] figure 1 A schematic diagram of the marine lube oil blending arrangement on board is shown. figure 1 Represents a known existing blending arrangement. The blender 102 is in fluid communication with the first cylinder tank 104 and the second cylinder tank 106 . The first cylinder tank typically holds 40TBN cylinder oil, and the second cylinder tank typically holds 100TBN to 320TBN. When the vessel is bunkered, the cylinder tanks 104, 106 are refilled. The term bunkering refers to the process of refueling a vessel, which includes refilling the respective cylinder tanks 104 , 106 . The cylinder oil tanks 104 , 106 may be in fluid communication and directly connected to the engine 100 via the cylinder oil service tank 108 . The cylinder oil daily tank 108 provides a buffer of pre-blended cylinder oil for use by the engine 100 . Cylinder oil from the first cylinder tank 104 and the second cylinder tank 106 is pumped directly to the cylinder oil day tank 108 via the pump...

Abstract

An oil blending system for a marine diesel two-stroke engine and / or generator comprising a blender having at least one inlet for receiving lubricating oil and at least one other ingredient and for mixing The lubricating oil composition is output to at least one outlet of the engine or generator. The blender controller is configured to receive parametric data regarding the current state of lubricating oil used in the engine or generator and to receive parametric data regarding the current engine and / or generator state. The blender controller is also configured to automatically determine whether the currently used lubricating oil is within predetermined parameters based on the current engine and / or generator state. If the current lubricating oil is outside a predetermined parameter threshold, the blender controller is configured to determine a new lubricating oil composition for the engine or generator.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for blending oil on a marine vessel. In particular, the present invention relates to the automatic determination of oil compositions for marine engines and / or generators. Background technique [0002] Many ships include two-stroke diesel engines that are bulky and require regular maintenance and overhaul. Maintenance and overhaul of large two-stroke marine engines are often expensive and time-consuming. Additionally, extensive maintenance of the engines will require bringing the vessel into dry dock. This means that the vessel is taken out of service and is undesirable for the owner. [0003] Therefore, better maintenance and upkeep of marine machinery such as engines and generators can reduce the frequency with which marine machinery needs to be overhauled. [0004] One way that a ship's engine is subject to wear is from contaminants in the fuel. For example, bunker fuel oil typically conta...
