Modern Marine Engineers Manual

Download or read book Modern Marine Engineer's Manual written by Everett C. Hunt and published by Cornell Maritime Press/Tidewater Publishers. This book was released on 1999 with total page 1296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to serve as a textbook for students and a reference for today's engineering officers, port engineers, superintendent engineers, and other maritime professionals. Steam turbine propulsion systems are included, but the coverage has been reduced in recognition of the popularity of main propulsion diesel engines, covered in volume 2, and the anticipated increasing applications of aeroderivative gas turbines. Reciprocating steam engines have been eliminated. Pumps, pumping systems, and heat exchangers are given extensive coverage. Computer applications for machinery and system management are presented, including an entire chapter on maintenance management. Relevant material on international and national laws, classification society requirements, and standards, such as ISO 9000 series and the ISM code, are included in the text. The characteristics of fuels are presented along with a discussion of fuel testing and analysis, and a section on bunkering. A chapter on safety and management discusses shipboard engineering operations, shipyard repair planning and economics, and safety management. Each chapter includes review questions and references for additional study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume II of the manual that has been absolutely indispensable to the ship's engineer for over forty years was completely updated by a team of practicing marine engineers in 1991. Chapters on obsolete equipment were deleted; those on systems that are still current were updated; and new chapters were written to cover the innovations in materials, machines, and operating practices that evolved recently.

Download or read book Modern Marine Internal Combustion Engines written by Ievgen Bilousov and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive and timely overview of internal combustion engines for use in marine environments. It reviews the development of modern four-stroke marine engines, gas and gas–diesel engines and low-speed two-stroke crosshead engines, describing their application areas and providing readers with a useful snapshot of their technical features, e.g. their dimensions, weights, cylinder arrangements, cylinder capabilities, rotation speeds, and exhaust gas temperatures. For each marine engine, information is provided on the manufacturer, historical background, development and technical characteristics of the manufacturer’s most popular models, and detailed drawings of the engine, depicting its main design features. This book offers a unique, self-contained reference guide for engineers and professionals involved in shipbuilding. At the same time, it is intended to support students at maritime academies and university students in naval architecture/marine engineering with their design projects at both master and graduate levels, thus filling an important gap in the literature.
