Now B&W combines Uniflow Scavenging with

Constant Pressure Turbocharging.

Our combined system of Uniflow Scavenging with Constant Pressure Turbocharging obtains a further reduction of 5% in fuel oil consumption.

By marrying the low resistance of Uniflow

Scavenging with the high efficiency of the new generation of turbochargers we have once again improved fuel economy.

We have altered the timing of the exhaust valves - added an exhaust gas receiver and a small auxiliary blower to be used at loads below 50% - obtaining remarkable fuel saving in the time tested

B&W K/L-GF engines.

Yet these engines keep all characteristic design features, and use all the well proven

B&W K/L-GF components, backed by millions of service hours.
