possible to apply a separate system to install a

Inevitably, in order to configure an economizer in
the combined multi-inlet system, as shown in Fig.

taking into consideration that combustion gas
produced by an individual engine must be
divided for the sake of engine performance and
prevention of occurrence of other problems, by-

to enable the gas to be separated depending

Even if these complicated tubes are
configured, due to different gas properties of
each engine, if the gas is less than the designed
quantity of gas, there may be caused a problem
of soot accumulation caused by slowdown of
exhaust gas speed inside the economizer, and
there is a high possibility that various problems
may occur like low-temperature corrosion, etc.

additionally in a generator engine, it is better to
consider the installation of a smoke-tube type
economizer which is flexible for system
configuration and relatively safer in the soot
