Elisabeth Knutsen engine room Bjorn Mendizabal

I'm onboard the crude oil tanker elisabeth knutsen as engine cadet. I had much better photographs and vids, but my PC got robbed and I hardly had any backup. This is like 10%. I find the track very suitable as it has som "engineer rock (17/8)" and some "red car crossing San Francisco bridge" music, together w some fusion. Enjoy!

Hi! I hadn't seen the reply! Well, as the intlet manifold is common to the 7 cylinders and they're not at admission/intake at the same time the flow of air through such a wide manifold shouldn't make the common turbo surge to much...I guess.

Take care!

But when the piston comes down and pushes air out, won't that surge the turbo?

[bjornengineer]

The scavenging air pressure in this engine is around 1,5bar. On the other hand, during compression, the air pressure inside the cylinder inmediately increases above 1,5 bar, reaching 25 at the end. Therefore no air is drawn into the cylinder. However, well perfoming piston rings should isolate the combustion chamber, to prevent the compressed air of the chamber from leaking out.

Take care!
