    Thermo Efficiency System (TES)for Reduction of Fuel Consumption and CO 2 Emission

    Introduction

    Following the trend of required higheroverall ship efficiency since the first oilcrisis in 1973, the efficiency of the mainengines has increased and, today, thefuel energy efficiency is about 50%.

    This high efficiency has, among others,led to a correspondingly lower exhaustgas temperature after the turbochargers.

    Even though a main engine fuel energyefficiency of 50% is relatively high, theprimary objective for the shipowner isstill to lower the total fuel consumptionof the ship and, thereby, to reduce theCO 2 emission of his ship.

    Today an even lower CO 2 emission canbe achieved by installing a ThermoEfficiency System. However, the maindemand for installation of a Thermo

    Efficiency System is that the reliabilityand safety of the main engine/ship op-eration must not be jeopardised.

    As an example, the heat balance diagramfor the nominally rated 12K98ME/MCengine (18.2 bar) of the standard high-efficiency version is shown in Fig. 1a.Fig. 1b shows an example based onthe Thermo Efficiency System, valid fora single-pressure steam system, to-

    gether with the corresponding figuresfor a dual-pressure steam systemshown in parenthesis.

    The primary source of waste heat of amain engine is the exhaust gas heatdissipation, which accounts for abouthalf of the total waste heat, i.e. about

    25% of the total fuel energy. In thestandard high-efficiency engine version,the exhaust gas temperature after theturbocharger is relatively low, and justhigh enough for production of the ne-cessary steam for a ships heating pur-poses by means of the exhaust gasfired boiler.

    However, a main engine with changedtiming and exhaust gas bypass which

    redistributes the exhaust gas heat fromhigh amount/low temperature to lowamount/high temperature increasesthe effect of utilising the exhaust gasheat, but at the same time may slightlyreduce the efficiency of the main engineitself. Such a system is called a ThermoEfficiency System (TES).

    Description of the ThermoEfficiency System

    Power concept andarrangement

    The Thermo Efficiency System (TES)consists of an exhaust gas fired boilersystem, a steam turbine (often called aturbo generator), an exhaust gas tur-

    bine (often called a power turbine) anda common generator for electric powerproduction. The turbines and the gen-erator are placed on a common bed-plate. The system is shown schemati-cally in Fig. 2a, and the arrangement of the complete turbine generating set asproposed by Peter Brotherhood isshown in Fig. 2b.

    The exhaust gas turbine is driven by apart of the exhaust gas flow, which by-passes the turbochargers. The exhaust

    gas turbine produces extra outputpower for electric power production,which depends on the bypassed ex-haust gas flow amount.

    When a part of the exhaust gas flow isbypassed the turbocharger, the totalamount of air and gas will be reduced,and the exhaust gas temperature afterthe turbocharger and bypass will increase.

    This will increase the obtainable steam

    production from the exhaust gas firedboiler.

    The exhaust gas bypass valve will beclosed for engine loads lower than about50% SMCR, which means that the ex-haust gas temperature will be reducedwhen operating below 50% SMCR.

    The power output from the exhaust gasturbine is transmitted to the steam tur-bine via a reduction gear (see Figs. 2aand 2b) with an overspeed clutch, which

    is needed in order to protect the exhaustgas turbine from overspeeding in casethe generator drops out.

    The total electric power output of the TES which reduces the ships fuel costs is only a gain provided that it can re-place the power output of other electricpower producers on board the ship.Otherwise, a shaft power motor con-nected to the main engine shaft could

    be an option, as also shown in Fig. 2a,but this extra system is rather expensive.

    In general (without a shaft power motorinstalled), when producing too muchelectric power, the (high pressure) su-perheated steam to the steam turbineis controlled by a speed control governorthrough a single throttle valve, whichmeans that the surplus steam is dumpedvia a dumping condenser. When thegenerator is operating in parallel withthe auxiliary diesel generators, the gov-

    Main engine performance data

    The exhaust gas bypass and turbineare available with the following approx.effects, compared with a standardhigh-efficiency main engine versionwithout an exhaust gas bypass:

    Open exhaust gas Parameters bypass for exhaust

    gas turbine

    Power output of exhaust gas tur- bine at 100% SMCR, up to +4.6% SMCR power

    Reduction of total exhaust gas amount, approx. -13%

    Total increase of mixed exhaust gas temperature after bypass, up to +50C

    Increased fuel consumption from 0.0% to +1.8%

    The mixed exhaust gas temperature be-fore the exhaust gas boiler, and valid forthe TES and based on ISO ambient ref-erence conditions, is shown as a functionof the engine load in Fig. 3. When oper-

    ating under higher ambient air tempera-tures, the exhaust gas temperature will behigher (about +1.6C per +1C air), andvice versa for lower ambient air tempera-tures.

    The increased fuel consumption of themain engine depends on the actualmaximum firing pressure (P max ) used.

    The P max used for TES will normally beincreased compared with a standardengine and thereby an increase of thespecific fuel oil consumption can beavoided when using TES.

    Exhaust gas boiler and steamsystems

    The exhaust gas boiler and steam tur-bine systems analysed in this paper arebased on the two types below:

    1. Single-pressure steam system The simple single-pressure steam system is only utilising the exhaust gas heat. See the process diagram in Fig. 4 and the corresponding tem- perature/heat transmission diagram in Fig. 5. The steam drum from the

    oil fired boiler can also be used in- stead of a separate steam drum.

    2. Dual-pressure steam systemWhen using the dual-pressure steamsystem, it is not possible to install anexhaust gas low-pressure preheatersection in the exhaust gas boiler, be-cause the exhaust gas boiler outlettemperature otherwise would be toolow and increase the risk of wet (oily)soot deposits on the boiler tubes.

    The more complex dual-pressure

    steam system, therefore, needssupplementary waste heat recovery(WHR) sources (jacket water andscavenge air heat) for preheating of the feedwater which, of course, willincrease the obtainable steam andelectric power production of TES.See the process diagram in Fig. 6and the corresponding temperature/ heat transmission diagram in Fig. 7.

    If no alternative waste heat recoverysources are used to preheat thefeedwater, the low pressure (LP)steam may be used to preheat thefeedwater, involving an about 16% re-duction of the total steam production.

    The available superheated steam usedfor the steam turbine is equal to thesurplus steam after deduction of thesaturated steam needed for heatingservices.

    The exhaust gas boiler has to be desig-ned in such a way that the risk of sootdeposits and fires is minimised, Ref. [1].

    Obtainable Electric PowerProduction of the ThermoEfficiency System

    Exhaust gas turbine output

    The exhaust gas bypass for the exhaustgas turbine has a bypass gas amountof approx. 12% of the total exhaust gasamount at 100% SMCR. This bypass-gas

    amount led through the exhaust gasturbine will typically produce an availablepower output of max. 4.6% of the SMCRpower when running at 100% SMCR.The corresponding electric power out-put will be somewhat lower because of generator and gear losses.

    At part load running of the main engine,the power output will be reduced byapproximately the square root of theengine load.

    As an example, the maximum availablepower output of the exhaust gas turbinevalid for a nominally rated 12K98ME/MC(18.2 bar) engine is shown in Fig. 8, asa function of the engine load.

    Exhaust gas and steamturbine generator output single pressure

    The single-pressure steam system is asystem where all heat recovered comesfrom the exhaust gas heat only, whichmakes it relatively simple, see Figs. 4and 5.

    As low gas temperatures (risk of conden-

    sed sulphuric acid) and low gas veloci-ties (risk of soot deposits) through theexhaust gas boiler may have a deterio-rating effect on the boiler, Ref. [1], wehave, in our studies, selected an exhaustgas boiler designed for a single-pressuresteam system of minimum 7 bar abs(6 bar g) steam pressure (165C), andminimum 20C pinch point. The super-heated steam temperature is about270C. The steam turbine is a multi-stage single-pressure condensing type.

    The alternator/generator is driven bothby the steam turbine and the exhaustgas turbine.

    As an example valid for the nominallyrated 12K98ME/MC (18.2 bar) engineoperating at ISO ambient referenceconditions, we have calculated the steamproduction and the electric power pro-duction of TES, see Figs. 10 and 11.

    The total electric power production in %of the main engine shaft power outputis also shown as a function of the engineload, see Fig. 9.

    The results for operation at 85% SMCRare shown in Fig. 14, together with thecalculated ISO ambient temperature basedresults for three other main engine types.

    The corresponding results based ontropical ambient temperature conditionsare shown in Fig. 15. However, it shouldbe emphasised that it is probably morerealistic to use the ISO ambient tem-peratures as the average ambient tem-peratures in worldwide operation. InFig. 16, the ISO based total electricpower production at 85% SMCR is alsoshown as a function of the main enginesize measured in SMCR power.

    Exhaust gas and steamturbine generator output dual pressure

    Besides the single-pressure steam system,a more complex and more expensivedual-pressure steam system is alsoavailabl e, see Figs. 6 and 7. The highand low steam pressures used areabout 10-11 and 4-5 bar abs (9-10 and3-4 bar g), respectively.

    The steam turbine is a multi-stage dual-pressure condensing type. The alternator/ generator is driven both by the steamturbine and the exhaust gas turbine.

    Because of the low steam pressure andcorresponding low saturated steam tem-perature (144C/4.0 bar abs), there is noroom for an LP-preheater section in theexhaust gas boiler for feedwater preheat-ing, because the exhaust gas boileroutlet temperature has to be higher thanabout 160-165C in order to avoid sulphu-ric acid corrosion of the boiler outlet.

    The feedwater, therefore, has to bepreheated by means of alternative heatsources such as the jacket water andscavenge air cooler heat.

    Furthermore, the pinch point should notbe too low (giving low gas velocitiesthrough the boiler) in order to protectthe exhaust gas boiler against sootdeposits and fires.

    As an example valid for the nominallyrated 12K98ME/MC (18.2 bar) engineoperating at ISO ambient referenceconditions, we have calculated thesteam production and the electricpower production of the TES, seeFigs. 12 and 13.

    The total electric power production in% of the main engine shaft power out-put is also shown as a function of theengine load, see Fig. 9.

    The results for operation at 85% SMCRare shown in Fig. 14, together with thecalculated ISO ambient temperaturebased results for three other main en-gine types. The corresponding resultsbased on tropical ambient temperatureconditions are shown in Fig. 15. How-ever, it should be emphasised that it isprobably more realistic to use the ISOambient temperatures as the averageambient temperatures in worldwide op-

    eration. In Fig. 16, the ISO based totalelectric power production at 85%SMCR is also shown as a function of the main engine size measured inSMCR power.

    Payback time of the ThermoEfficiency System

    The payback time of TES depends verymuch on the size of the main engineand the trade pattern (main engine loadand ambient temperatures) of the ship.

    When for example operating at tropicalambient conditions, the electric poweroutput of the TES is higher than for ISOambient conditions, which again has ahigher TES output compared with win-ter ambient conditions.

    Furthermore, the investment costs perinstalled kW e output of a TES plant arerelatively cheaper the bigger the plant is.

    A simple estimation of the average savedfuel costs in service at ISO ambient tem-perature conditions for a 12K98ME/MCwith TES (for single or dual pressure)compared to a standard 12K98ME/MCengine can be found by means of thealready estimated relative TES1/TES2gain of 8.6%/9.8% of the main engineoutput, see Fig. 14.

    Fuel costs = 280 days/y x 24 h/day x 0.00017 t/kWh

    x 58,344 kW x 160 USD/t = 10,664,000 USD/year

    For the single and dual-pressure sys-tems, respectively, the TES gain insaved fuel consumptions will then be asfollows:

    TES1 savings = 0.086 x 10,664,000= 917,000 USD/year TES2 savings = 0.098 x 10,664,000

    = 1,045,000 USD/year

    as shown in Fig. 14.

    The similar fuel cost savings valid for theother three cases with smaller main en-gines are also stated in Fig. 14, and incurve form in Fig. 16 as a function of the main engine size, SMCR power.

    Based on the extra investment costs of the TES plant (without installation of ashaft power motor on the main engineshaft and minus the investment cost of a normal exhaust gas boiler system) forthe four main engine cases comparedto a standard main engine installation,the estimated payback time found is asstated in Fig. 14, i.e. in principle thesame for the single and dual-pressuresystems. For the 12K98ME/MC engine,the calculated payback time is about

    five years.

    In Fig. 17, the estimated payback timeof the TES plant is shown as a functionof the main engine size. The payback time is only valid provided all electricpower production savings are used onboard the ship.

    It has been assumed that the increasedspecific fuel consumption of the TESmain engine has been avoided by usingan increased firing pressure, P max.

    Summary

    Our calculations indicate that for ISOambient reference conditions, a reduc-tion of the fuel consumption of 8-10%for a single-pressure system is possiblein the normal service range of the mainengine. The larger the engine load, thegreater the possible reduction.

    For the more complex dual-pressuresystem, the corresponding reduction isabout 9-11%.

    All calculations presume unchangedMTBOs (maintenance time betweenoverhauls) compared to todays expec-tations.

    However, if the ship sails frequently incold weather conditions, the electricpower production of the steam turbinewill be reduced, and the above-stated

    reduction of fuel consumption and cor-responding reduction of CO 2 emissionmight not be met.

    The extra investment costs of the ThermoEfficiency System and the payback of the investment can be obtained bymeans of lower fuel/lube oil costs and,not to forget, the possibility of obtainingadditional freight charters and higherfreight rates, thanks to the green shipimage!

    The payback time calculations basedon a large container vessel with a12K98ME/MC as main engine and asaverage operating at 85% SMCR andat ISO ambient reference conditions innormal service during 280 days/yearindicate a payback time of about 5 yearsfor the TES. The payback time is validfor both the single-pressure and thedual-pressure systems, because theincreased electric power productiongain of the dual-pressure system mightcorrespond to about the same relativeincrease of the investment costs com-pared to the single-pressure system.

    When selecting the type of Thermo Effi-ciency System, the correspondingly in-volved higher risks for soot deposits andfires of the exhaust gas boiler has to beconsidered, see Ref. [1].

    Because of this, but also because of themore simple single-pressure steam boilersystem, MAN B&W Diesel recommendsusing the single-pressure steam system,when installing TES.

    Of course, the more complex and moreexpensive dual-pressure steam system,which gives a somewhat higher electricpower output, may also be used inconnection with MAN B&W Dieselstwo-stroke main engine types.

    The TES is rather expensive, and relativelymore expensive the smaller the main

    engine and the TES are, giving a rela-tively higher payback time. Therefore,the installation of the TES is normallyonly relevant for the large merchant ships,such as the large container vessels.

    The TES may be delivered as a packageby Peter Brotherhood (turbines) in co-operation with Aalborg Industries (boiler)and Siemens (generator) or by othermakers.
