Fresh Water Generator

Converting Seawater to Freshwater on a Ship: Fresh Water Generator Explained Fresh water generator , one of the important machinery on board a ship, is something that cannot be done without. Fresh water produced from fresh water generator is used for drinking, cooking, washing and even running other important machinery which use fresh water as a cooling medium. Fresh water is generally produced on board using the evaporation method. There are two things that are available in plenty on ship to produce fresh water –Seawater and heat. Thus fresh water is produced by evaporating sea water using heat from any of the heat source. The evaporated sea water is then again cooled by the sea water and the cycle repeats. Generally the heat source available is taken from the main engine jacket water, which is used for cooling the main engine components such as cylinder head, liner etc. The temperature available from this jacket water is about 70 deg. centigrade. But at this temperature the evaporati

Maintenance ONBOARD

  Types of Maintenance Procedures 1)   Preventive or Scheduled Maintenance System It is famously known as the PMS or Planned Maintenance System. In this type of system the maintenance is carried out as per the running hours like 4000 hrs, 8000 hrs etc., or by the calendar intervals like 6 monthly, yearly etc. of the machinery. The maintenance is carried out irrespective of the condition of the machinery. The parts have to be replaced if it is written in the schedule, even if they can be still used. 2)  Corrective or Breakdown Maintenance In this system, maintenance is carried out when the machinery breaks down. This is the reason it is known as breakdown maintenance. This is not a suitable and good method as situations may occur wherein the machinery is required in an emergency. The only advantage of this system is that the working of machinery parts is used to its full life or until it breaks. This system might get costly as during breakdown several other parts may also get damaged. 3
