Lectures

Goal

To cover the basic knowledge of Marine Engineering connected to ship piping and pumping systems, to become familiar with ship systems (bilge, ballast, sanitary, tanker systems, fire-fighting systems, etc.) and learn the basics of their calculation and design.

Outcome

The outcome of the course is to familiarize students with ship systems and the basics of their calculation and design. Students will be capable of applying comprehensive knowledge from mathematics, statistics, fluid mechanics, natural sciences, and engineering principles to solve complex problems, with a critical awareness of engineering development and broader context. They will also be able to formulate and analyze complex problems, assessing available data and using engineering reasoning to work with uncertain or incomplete information, considering the constraints of applied techniques. Moreover, students will know how to select and apply appropriate computer and analytical techniques for modeling complex problems, as well as choose and apply suitable materials, equipment, engineering technologies, and processes, respecting their limitations.

Theoretical teaching

Ship piping systems: pressure diagram, piping characteristics, characteristics of marine pumps, joint operation of pumps and a piping, suction head problems. Piping armature. Types of marine pumps. Individual ship systems: Bilge system, emergency system, rescue system; Ballast system; Heeling and trim system; Sanitary systems: system of fresh and sea water, system of waste water. Drainage system. Tanker systems: cargo system, stripping system, tank ventilation, tank cleaning, cargo circulation, cargo heating system. MARPOL Regulations. Firefighting systems: fire detection, fire‐fighting systems (water, inert gases, foam, halons).

Practical teaching

Principle design and calculations of various ship piping and pumping systems. Practical examples of ship systems, illustrating the subjects lectured in theoretical syllabus.

Attendance requirement

Exams passed in Fluid mechanics B or M.
