The un niflow scaveng ging is shownn<br />

in figure 1. .3c. The air inntake<br />

ports aare<br />

located near the bott tom dead cenntre<br />

(BDC). Thhe<br />

exhaust poort<br />

is located in<br />

the cyli inder head. An A exhaust vaalve<br />

is used too<br />

open <strong>and</strong> close<br />

the exhauust<br />

port wh hereas the inta ake ports are controlled byy<br />

piston motioon.<br />

As discusseed<br />

in sectio on 1.1.1, the fresh f air enterss<br />

the cylinder near the botttom<br />

dead centtre<br />

<strong>and</strong> flow ws upward an nd removes thhe<br />

exhaust gasees<br />

though the exhaust port at<br />

the cyli inder head. Since<br />

the scavennging<br />

air flowws<br />

from bottom<br />

to top insidde<br />

the cylinder,<br />

this type<br />

<strong>of</strong> scavenginng<br />

is called as uniflow scaveenging.<br />

Most <strong>of</strong><br />

marine diesel engines s with unifloww<br />

scavenging hhave<br />

a single exhaust<br />

port.<br />

The en ngines equipp ped with crross<br />

<strong>and</strong> looop<br />

scavengingg<br />

have simpple<br />

constru uction due to less moving pparts<br />

i.e. no eexhaust<br />

valve. This results in<br />

simpler r cylinder cover<br />

design, lesss<br />

stressed camm<br />

shaft <strong>and</strong> allso<br />

prevents thhe<br />

problem m <strong>of</strong> thermal stressing s due too<br />

exhaust valvve<br />

heating-up ( (Raunek, 20099).<br />

From sc cavenging poi int <strong>of</strong> view, thhe<br />

main disadvvantage<br />

<strong>of</strong> theese<br />

two types <strong>of</strong><br />

scaveng ging is that the t scavenginng<br />

air cannot completely remove all thhe<br />

exhaust t gases from th he cylinder.<br />
