what type of equipment is used on tank in tanker.? and y?

how u will kno that the equipments are intrensically safe.?

only this i remember

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are organic chemicals that have a high vapor
pressure at ordinary room temperature. Their high vapor pressure results from a low
boiling point, which causes large numbers of molecules to evaporate or sublimate from
the liquid or solid form of the compound and enter the surrounding air

Like Reply 4 September 19 at 9:37am

why we have 2s for m/e and 4s for aux engine?

Cadet KarTikPorWal Because we need high speed( ~1500 rpm ) for generating 60 hz
electric supply voltage (f=PN/120) while for propulsion we need high torque for
overcoming the water resistance to propeller and hull. If we hv to use 4 stroke engine
for m/e then we will need reduction gears as rotating the propeller at high speed will
cause churning effect due to which propeller will not be able to throw more water and
hence thrust will reduce

Function 4b
1 Condenser and cooler what difference?

2 Tube and plate type what is more efficient?

Function 3

1 SCBA

2 EEBD

3 SCBA becomes empty can you fill SCBA with main air compressor?

NO you should use only Breathing air compressor becuase main air compressor oil will
come along with air

4 If ship moves from fresh water to sea water what will happen?

The draft decreases

5 Transom space

6 Void space- Void space is an empty compartment not used for cargo or ballast
purpose.

7 Cofferdam

A cofferdam may also refer to an insulating space between two watertight bulkheads or
decks within a ship.

A cofferdam may be a void (empty) space or a ballast space. Cofferdams are usually
employed to

ensure oil or other chemicals do not leak into machinery spaces. If two different cargoes
that react

dangerously with each other are carried on the same vessel, one or more cofferdams
are usually required

between the cargo spaces.

8 Free fall life boat in drill how will you launch?

9 Free fall life boat during emergency how will you launch?

10 Co2 line blow through procedure?

11 Co2 alarm and other alarm difference?

12 How will you know the weight of the CO2 bottle?

CO 2 bottles are of solid drawn steel, hydraulically tested to 22 8 bar.

The contents are checked by weighing or by means of a radioactive level indicator.

Recharging is necessary if there is a 10% weight loss.

Pipework is of solid drawn mild steel, galvanized for protection against corrosion.

The syphon tube in the bottle ensures that liquid is discharged from the bottles.

Without the syphon tube the CO 2 would evaporate from the surface giving

a very slow discharge rate and, taking latent heat, would probably cause

the remaining CO 2 in the bottle to freeze

Function 4b

1 What is your yourmaine engine bering made of?

2 WHile metal bearing composition?

Tin-based white metal is an alloy with minimum 88% tin (Sn),

the rest of the alloy composition is antimony (Sb)8%, copper (Cu)4%, cadmium (Cd)
and

small amounts of other elements that are added to improve the fineness of the grain
structure

and homogeneity during the solidification process.

The cylinder relief valve is designed to relieve pressures in excess of 10% to 20%
above normal.

6 short stroke and superlong stroke difference?

LMC : Long stroke L/B = 3.2

KMC : short strke L/B = 2.8

SMC : Long Stroke L/B = 3.82

7 Advantages of superlong stroke?

Advantages of super long stroke

1.Super long stroke means increased swept volume allowing more mass of air to be
drawn

into the cylinder which in turn allows more fuel to be burnt, hence increasing power
output

2.super long stroke increases piston travel time and thereby decreases crank speed so
more time

for combustion during the stroke.

3.The efficiency of Large dia propellers is best at slower RPM...With super long stroke
we can have

slower RPM of engine with no change in mean piston speed of the engine

4.Low grade fuels can be used

5.lower horizontal space consumed by cross head reduction of weight for same

power disadvantage- increased lateral force on guides due to the relatively short
connecting rods

7 Doubel sheath high pressure inside line leak, how will you come to know?

Function 5

1 Generator safeties?

2 Synchronising?

3 Generator is running, we have taken load,voltage is showing zero reasons?

4 Minimum insulation resistance how much for a motor? 1 mega ohm

5 Fuse types

Types

The main components of a standard fuse unit consist of the following items:

Metal fuse element

Set of contacts

Support body
The major two categories of fuses include:

a Low Voltage Fuses

b High Voltage Fuses

In order to understand Low voltage fuses better, we can further classify it further into:

Semi Enclosed or Rewireable Type

Totally enclosed or Cartridge Type

a D type

b Link Type

i) Knife Blade Type HRC Fuse: This kind is easily replaceable in the circuit without any
load.

For this purpose, special insulated fuse pullers are used.

ii) Bolted Type HRC Link Fuse: In this type, the conducting plates are bolted to the base
of the fuse.

There is also a presence of a switch through which the fuse can be removed without
getting an electrical shock.
