What is Hot and Cold Corrosion in Marine Engines about?
The document discusses hot and cold corrosion that can occur in marine engines from burning heavy fuel oil. Hot corrosion is caused by vanadium and sodium in fuel oil and affects exhaust passages, causing erosion and fused salt corrosion. Cold corrosion is caused by sulfur in fuel oil forming sulfuric acid that condenses on cylinder liners when engine runs inefficiently at low RPM. Proper maintenance and fuel additives can help control hot and cold corrosion in marine engines.
