ENGINEERING ESWS Flashcards
How many Steering Units are there?
(Four)
What type of system operates the Steering Units?
Closed loop hydraulic system.
Where are the Steering Units located?
(Aft Steering 3rd deck frame 247 Port and Stbd).
Where is the Ram Assembly located?
(4th deck below Port and Stbd Aft Steering)
How many Steering Units are online during normal operation?
(Two, 1 port and 1 Stbd, 1 & 4 even, 2 & 3 odd days).
Where can you steer the ship from?
Bridge, Aft Steering, Secondary Control in DCC
Where is Emergency Steering located?
(2nd deck frame 247 Port and Stbd)
What is the purpose of Emergency Steering?
(Bring rudder amidships during a casualty)
Explain the two main modes of steering.
(Non-Follow up: Helm Electric control from Bridge)(Follow up: Engage Trick wheel from Aft Steering)
Steering pumps
– Consist of two independent variable hydraulic pump that moves hydraulic liquid to the main system.
Trick wheel
– Provide local-hydraulic control of the steering system in case of failure of the remote steering system.
Differential control box
– Mechanically positions the tilt box of the main hydraulic pump to the required angle and position.
Ram assembly
– The ram unit is mounted athwart ship and consists of a single ram operated by opposed cylinders. The ram is connected by links to the tillers of the twin rudders. When oil pressure is applied to one end of the operating cylinder, the ram will move, causing each rudder to move along with it.
Emergency steering pump
– A hand pump and associated service lines are also provided for local-manual operation of the ram in case of failure of both hydraulic pump units.
Rack and pinion follow-up assembly
– The rack and pinion follow-up assembly transmit a signal to the differential control box when the ordered steering operation has been completed.
Oily Waste Separator (OWS)
– OWS is used to process oily wastes, that is, separate the oil and water, discharge the oil to the waste oil tank, and discharge the water overboard by way of an oil content monitor.
Deck connections
- Oily waste transfer pump piping risers with deck discharge connections provide the ship with the capability to discharge oily waste and waste oil to shore facilities while in port. At least one connection is installed on each side of the ship.
Waste oil retention tank
– Receives separated oil from the OWS for later discharge to shore receiving facilities.
Oily waste holding tank
– Provides capability to store oily waste before processing by an OWS or before discharge to shore.
A coil
The A, or athwart ship, coil has loops in the vertical fore and aft planes. The function of the A coil is to produce a magnetic field that counteracts the magnetic field cause by the athwart ship induce magnetization.
M coil
The M, or Main, coil encircles the ship in a horizontal plane, usually near the waterline. The M coil produces a magnetic field that counteracts the magnetic field produced by the vertical permanent and vertical induced magnetization of the ship.
FP-QP coil
The FP-QP coil is used primarily to counteract the magnetic field produced by the ship’s longitudinal permanent magnetization, and it is sometimes used to provide some compensation to supplement the M coil for vertical induced magnetization.
FI-QI
The FI-QI coil is used primarily to counteract the magnetic field produced by the ships longitudinal induce magnetization.
Degaussing switchboard
The switchboard contains operator controls, control circuits, and status indicators for all coils. The switchboard is functionally divided to facilitate operation and maintenance.
Remote control panel
The remote control panels provide status indicators and a leading switch for emergency manual operation in a remote location.
What are the four phases of the basic Refrigeration Cycle?
(Compression, Condensation, Expansion, Evaporation)
What is the primary purpose of the A/C System?
(Provide cooling to vital electronic equipment)
What is the secondary purpose of the A/C System?
Crew comfort

WHAT IS THE DESIGNED TEMPATURE FOR CHILL WATER?
44 DEGREES
WHAT IS THE PRIMARY AC PLANT FOR THE ISLAND?
7 AC PLANT
FOUR PHASES OF REFRIGERATION CYCLECOMPRESSION PHASE-
WHERE A LOW PRESSURE HIGH TEMP VAPOR ENTERS THE COMPRESSOR AND BECOMES A HIGH PRESSURE HIGH TEMP VAPOR.
CONDENSATION PHASE??
HIGH PRESSURE HIGH TEMP VAPOR ENTERS THE CONDENSER AND IS TURNED INTO A HIGH PRESSURE HIGH TEMP LIQUID BY FIREMAIN OR SEA WATER THAT PASSES THROUGH THE CONDENSER…
