MTU 4000 G63 V16: cylinders back to nominal, power close to rated
Cylinders reached nominal pressure, the spread across cylinders narrowed, the oil ran cooler. 1–2.5 bar — peak cylinder pressure, 27–29 → 28.5–30 bar (nominal 30); 5 % — diesel power output, 1535 → 1612 kW (nominal 1635); 14 % — oil temperature, 121 → 104 °C (2020).

The nominal 30 bar was reached in 11 of the 16 cylinders, the spread narrowed from 27–29 to 28.5–30 bar. Measured with a compression gauge at 1500 rpm, coolant temperature 55 °C.
Power, oil temperature and oil consumption over operating hours
| PARAMETER | BEFORE TREATMENT | AFTER 100 H | AFTER 561 H |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diesel power output, kW | 1535 | 1541 | 1612 |
| Oil temperature, °C | 121 | 119 | 104 |
| Oil consumption, l/h | 3 | 2.7 | 2.5 |
Measurements taken at 1500 rpm. Between 100 and 561 h four more check measurements were made: power was rising, oil temperature was falling monotonically. Engine rating — 1635 kW (ISO 3046).
