Cathodic Protection in Marine Application: What is it All About?
December 13th, 2019Cathodic protection is used to protect marine vessels from corrosion. That’s a general description for a complex subject. Remember, marine vessels are made of different alloys. Furthermore, the protection doesn’t coat the metal in some invisible finish, nor does an oxidization event only involve pure water. For one thing, oceangoing ships cross briny seas. The […]
Top Reasons Why Ship Generators Fail to Start
December 2nd, 2019Here’s a system failure scenario that sometimes keeps marine engineers up at night. If a ship generator fails to start, what’ll happen to the boat and its crew? There are no street lights or grid electricity connections in the middle of an ocean, so that power generating equipment had better operate. Working proactively, conscientious ship […]
An Overview on the Functions of Disc-Type Turbine Oil Centrifugal Separators (Oil Purifiers) in Marine Vessels
November 20th, 2019Let’s face it, turbine lubricants are expected to handle lots of stress. In ship systems, beleaguered marine turbines run hot. The moving parts rub against each other and cause huge pressure spikes to propagate through the innermost chambers of the machinery. There’s a heap of fluid and mechanical energy in play in there, but an […]
Stern Tube Bearing Failures: What are the Possible Causes?
November 4th, 2019A stern tube bearing failure is never viewed as a trivial issue. Apart from anything else, that seal is a route to the interior of a boat’s hull. If seal integrity goes, the inevitable loss of hull fidelity will likely adversely affect the rest of the boat. Keep that thought in mind as you learn […]
Working Principles of Yanmar Electric Propulsion Systems
October 22nd, 2019A Yanmar-regulated design strategy has been used for some years now to control fuel flow issues. As a result, propellor shafts and engine pistons sync perfectly while fuel economy figures enjoy substantial performance upticks. Having perfected such performance-centred programs, what if the engineering teams working under this celebrated brand name’s patronage were to develop a […]
