Analysis and Investigation of AE Cyl. Liner Cavitation Erosion
Introduction
Engine type: 6DC-17
Maker: Daihatsu
560 kW, 900 rpm.
I.Fault Symptoms
To meet the crane’s power demand, Generators No. 1 and No. 3 were operated in parallel.
the duty engineer observed abnormally low exhaust gas temperatures (EGT) in Cylinder No. 6 of AE No. 3, with deviations increasing from 30°C to 50°C over successive checks. After adjusting fuel injection, EGT temporarily normalized. However, Generator No. 3 later tripped unexpectedly, causing a total blackout.
II. Fault Diagnosis and Resolution
1. Initial Checks
Fuel injection timing: Normal.
Fuel injectors and pumps: No visible defects in pressure testing or atomization.
Fuel supply lines: No blockages detected.
