    摘要: Disclosed herein is a method for controlling supply of cylinder oil containing a base to a cylinder of a running large two-stroke crosshead engine, the large two-stroke crosshead engine having cylinders comprising a cylinder liner with a reciprocating piston therein, the method comprising: feeding the cylinder oil to the cylinder at a variable and controllable cylinder oil feed rate and with a variable and controllable basicity (TBN); adjusting the variable cylinder oil feed rate to an actual lubrication need of an inner surface of the cylinder liner; adjusting a total amount of detergent in the cylinder oil to an actual need for a presence of detergent in the cylinder liner; and adjusting a capacity to neutralize acidic combustion products in the cylinder resulting from an actual cylinder oil feed rate and basicity (TBN) by adjusting the basicity of the cylinder oil to an actual need of the inner surface of the cylinder liner for protection against acidic combustion products in the cylinder liner.
