Year: 1994 Language: english Author: Alan Osbourne, ed. Everett C. Hunt Genre: Manual Publisher: Cornell Maritime Press Edition: 2nd ISBN: 0-87033-307-0 Format: PDF Quality: OCR without errors Pages count: 418 Description: THIS second edition ofModern Marine Engineer's Manual, Volume II, published a half century after the first edition, will be useful to merchant marine engineer officers, superintendent and port engineers, ship repair specialists, and students. While this volume may be of some general interest to engineers engaged in ship design and shipbuilding, it is specifically directed to those involved in the operation and maintenance of shipboard machinery systems. The second edition is not a revision ofthe first edition. It is an entirely new manual prepared in the tradition ofthe first edition. In addition to the shipboard auxiliary machinery of the first edition, this edition places special and appropriate emphasis on diesel main propulsion, cargo sys- tems, central operating systems, and vibration analysis as a monitoring and maintenance tool. A chapter on combustion of coal has been included in anticipation of a renewed interest in this fuel. While today's merchant ship retains most of the functional attributes of the machinery systems described in the first edition, the details are greatly different. Direct current electric power systems are rare except on some special vessels, such as cable vessels. High propulsion power ratings are common, providing higher speed for larger vessels. The modern slow- speed long-stroke diesel propulsion system has replaced the geared steam turbine as the most efficient and the most popular of available main propulsion systems. Unique cargo systems, such as LNG, container car- riers, chemical carriers, very large crude oilcarriers, and neo-bulk carriers, are in common use. Central operations, bridge control, unmanned machin- ery spaces, and special contract repair personnel are providing opportuni- ties for reduction in the ship's force. The machinery associated with these changes is discussed in this edition. We have tried to incorporate metric measurements as well as the U. S. customary units. It is obviousthat most of the maritime world uses the S. 1.U.system. Americans are long overdue in becoming comfortable with the ,'.t S. I. U. system of measurements. The contributing editors of the second edition are all experienced in problems of ship operations and ship design. Most of them teach in accredited engineering schools with programs in marine engineering. A manual of this type would be impossible without the help and cooperation of the many industrial organizations that develop, design, and manufacture the wide array of shipboard machinery systems. These companies are fully acknowledged at the end of each chapter.
