the PLC controller sends a signal to start the air supply fan, and opens the sixth two-way electromagnetic valve, the eighth two-way electromagnetic valve, the air exhaust fan, and the bypass end of the three-way electromagnetic valve and the straight-through E1 end of the three-way electromagnetic valve; atmospheric air at normal temperature and pressure enters the B2 atmospheric air inlet port of the input pipeline, passes through the air supply fan, the fourth one-way valve, the buffer tank, the flow meter, the third one-way valve, and the sixth two-way electromagnetic valve in turn, enters the outer pipe of the D1 input double-wall pipe of the ammonia fuel low-speed engine, and then is output from the outer pipe of the D2 output double-wall pipe of the ammonia fuel low-speed engine, passes through the eighth two-way electromagnetic valve, the ammonia detector, the air exhaust fan, the bypass end of the three-way electromagnetic valve and the straight-through E1 end of the three-way electromagnetic valve in turn, and is discharged from the C port of the exhaust pipeline that penetrates the wall; b2) When the atmospheric environment does not reach the environment with air temperature over 20℃ and air humidity less than 30%, open the manual two-way valve, and the PLC controller sends a signal to open the sixth two-way electromagnetic valve, the seventh two-way electromagnetic valve and the eighth two-way electromagnetic valve, and the bypass end of the three-way electromagnetic valve and the straight-through E1 end of the three-way electromagnetic valve are turned on, 0.7Mpa dry compressed air is input from the B1 input port of the air inlet pipeline, passes through the seventh two-way electromagnetic valve, the manual two-way valve, the buffer tank, the flow meter, the third one-way valve and the sixth two-way electromagnetic valve in turn, enters the outer pipe of the D1 input double-wall pipe of the ammonia fuel low-speed engine, and then is output from the outer pipe of the D2 output double-wall pipe of the ammonia fuel low-speed engine, passes through the eighth electromagnetic valve, the ammonia detector and the air exhaust fan in turn, and then passes through the bypass end of the three-way electromagnetic valve and the straight-through E1 end of the three-way electromagnetic valve that are turned on, and is discharged from the C port of the exhaust pipeline that leads to the outdoor; c) Start-up operation when the ammonia fuel low-speed engine has a slight leakage of not more than 200ppm When the ammonia detector detects that the ammonia fuel has a slight leakage of not more than 200ppm, the PLC controller sends a signal to open the first two-way electromagnetic valve and the fourth two-way electromagnetic valve, and closes the third two-way electromagnetic valve, nitrogen gas at a pressure of 0.3Mpa enters from the A1 port of the low-pressure nitrogen gas pipeline, passes through the first two-way electromagnetic valve, the fourth two-way electromagnetic valve and the second one-way valve in turn, enters the outer pipe of the ammonia fuel input double-wall pipe D1, and then is output from the outer pipe of the ammonia fuel output double-wall pipe D2, passes through the eighth electromagnetic valve, the ammonia detector and the air exhaust fan in turn, and then is output from the bypass end of the three-way electromagnetic valve and the straight-through E2 end of the three-way electromagnetic valve that are turned on, and then enters the outdoor ammonia vapor tank through the connecting pipeline to collect the leaked ammonia fuel; at the same time, the PLC controller sends a signal to open the fifth two-way electromagnetic valve for 20 seconds every 10 minutes, and the nitrogen gas at a pressure of 0.3Mpa input from the A1 port of the low-pressure nitrogen gas pipeline passes through the fifth one-way valve, and combines with the ammonia fuel leaked from the ammonia fuel D3 leakage port at the bottom of the ammonia fuel engine, and blows back to the ammonia vapor tank for collecting ammonia fuel; d) Start-up operation when the ammonia fuel low-speed engine has a serious leakage of more than 200ppm When the ammonia detector detects that the ammonia fuel has a serious leakage of more than 200 ppm, the PLC controller sends a signal to open the first two-way electromagnetic valve, the second two-way electromagnetic valve, the fourth two-way electromagnetic valve and the eighth two-way electromagnetic valve, and to close the third two-way electromagnetic valve; the high-pressure nitrogen gas with a pressure of 3.0 Mpa input from the A! port of the high-pressure nitrogen gas pipe passes through the first two-way electromagnetic valve, the fourth two-way electromagnetic valve and the second one-way valve in sequence, is input into the outer pipe of the ammonia fuel D1 input double-wall pipe, then passes through the outer pipe outlet of the ammonia fuel D2 output double-wall pipe, and then passes through the eighth two-way electromagnetic valve, the ammonia detector, the air suction fan, and then the bypass end of the three-way electromagnetic valve and the straight-through E2 end of the three-way electromagnetic valve, and then enters the outdoor ammonia vapor tank with the leaked ammonia fuel through the connecting pipeline; at the same time, the PLC controller sends a signal to open the fifth two-way electromagnetic valve, and the high-pressure nitrogen gas passes through the fifth two-way electromagnetic valve and the fifth one-way valve in sequence, and blows the ammonia fuel leaked from the bottom D3 port of the ammonia fuel engine back to the ammonia vapor tank for collecting the ammonia fuel.
