PROJECT # 4
HEAT EXCHANGER
There are three methods employed for water cooled marine diesel engines: direct, keel cooling and heat exchanger cooling. Direct cooling of the cylinders and heads by seawater is unsatisfactory, because the engine which was probably originally designed for radiator cooling will run too cold and the seawater will eventually ruin the cylinder block and heads. Keel cooling is suitable for small boats operating in shallow weedy water, but the need for pipe work external to the hull is a severe limitation.
Heat exchanger cooling is the most common method, the seawater being isolated in components which can be designed to withstand its corrosive effect. The closed fresh-water circuit can be thermostatically controlled so that the engine operates at its design temperature. The tube stack is fully floating, thus minimising thermal stresses, and it can easily be removed should cleaning be necessary. Heat exchanger header tanks prevent aeration of the engine water circuit which must be designed so that the system is self-venting on initial filling. It is usual for all the components in the seawater circuit to be in series, the gearbox oil and engine oil coolers being on the suction side of the seawater pump and the heat exchanger and any seawater cooled exhaust. Manifolds being on the discharge side of the heat exchanger. In the case of turbocharged engines the charge air cooler should receive the seawater first so that the lowest possible air temperature is obtained. The sea-water outlet from the heat exchanger should be from the end cover equipped with the upper connection; this ensures that the tube stack is always full of water. The gearbox cooler size will depend on the type of transmission used, but it will usually be a very size smaller as compared to the engine oil cooler. If preferred, the oil coolers can be fresh water cooled; these will need to be larger owing to the higher water temperature but need not be suitable for sea-water.
HEAT EXCHANGER
A six cylinder single acting 2-stroke Marine Diesel Engine consumes 60 tonnes of fuel oil
of 48 MJ/Kg calorific value per day. It is required to design a cooling water system
consisting of a cooler where fresh water circulated through the engine piston, jacket
and cylinder is cooled by sea water supplied from a single stage circulating pump. The
cooler is a single pass contra-flow type and a fresh water by-pass line is provided for
mixing so that the jacket cooling temperature is maintained at a higher value (see
attached sketch for further details).

GIVEN:
Six cylinders, single acting two stroke marine diesel engine consumes 60 tonnes of fuel
oil of 42/MJ calorific value per day
ENGINE DETAILS:
Specific Fuel consumption = 0.25kg/kW (brake)/hr
Daily consumption of F.O. = 60 tonnes
Engine Cylinder Diameter (Bore) = 0.84m
Length of Stroke = 1.6m
Mean pressure from indicator card = 11.2bar
Mechanical efficiency = 83.9%
COOLER DETAILS:
-
The cooler is a single pass, contra flow type
Effective length of cooler tubes = 1.47m
External diameter of tubes = 20mm
Wall thickness of tube = 1mm
Also, the given calorific value of fuel = 42 MJ/kg
A) CALCULATE:
(a) Brake power and speed of engine in RPM
Fuel consumption per day = 60 tonnes
Fuel consumption per hour = 60
24 tonnes / hour

INDICATED POWER =

Where n = number of cylinders = 6
P = Mean pressure from Indicator Card = 11.2 bar = 11.2 x 105 N/m2
L = Length of stroke = 1.6 m
A = Area of the cylinder bore =

Therefore mec = ..

99308.5 = 0.833
N = 120 RPM
SPEED OF THE ENGINE IS 120 RPM
b) Mass of the fresh water to be calculated through the engine to cope up with
10% extra fuel burnt for overload running and given that 28% of total heat supplied to
the engine is transferred to the circulating water of 4.15KJ/ KG K specific heat
capacity
Since daily fuel consumption = 2500kg/hr
10% of extra fuel consumption = 2500 + 10% of 2500
= 2750kg/hr
= 0.7638kg /sec
Heat generated by the engine = Fuel consumption/second x calorific value
Heat generated = 0.7638 X 42 X 106
= 32.08 MW
As given 28% of the heat generated is transferred to circulating water of 4.18 KJ/kg K
Specific heat capacity
Q = m CW (T2-T1)
8.98 = m X 4.18 (65-55)
m = 214.88 kg/s
This is amount of fresh water circulated to cope up with 10% extra fuel
consumption due to overload.

(c) The temperature at cooler inlet (sketch) considering that 2 3 rd of the total
circulating water in used for cylinder jacket and cylinder head cooling is 1/3 rd of

All fluid properties are to be evaluated at mean bulk temperature. Neglect thermal

Re = ..
Where = density = 1020 kg/ m
d = inner dia of tube =18mm

Hence,
Re = 1020 X 1.648 X 0.018
979 X 106 = 30906.312
Since Re is greater than 2100, the flow is turbulent
f = 0.0791 (Re)-1/4

Therefore
Q = Om
where a = projected area of tube = X d x l X h
where d = 0.019m
l = 1.47m
n = no. of tubes
Om = 34.54
Substitute in the above equation
8.98 X 106 = 7709.55 X X 0.019 X 1.47 X n X 35.54
n = 384.32 < 400
Therefore, the heat exchanger should have a minimum of 385 tubes
Since, it has been provided with 400 tubes which will be sufficient for heat transfer
-
(e) Calculate shell diameter considering tube plate areas as 1.5 times the area
utilised by tube holes
Answer: Area utilised by tube holes =
4 X d X n
=
4 X 0.022 X 400
= 0.125m2
Tube plate area = 1.5 X area utilised by tube holes
= 1.5 X 0.1256
= 0.18849m2
Hence, tube plate area =
4 X d 2
Where d = shell diameter
0.18849 =
4 d 2
d 2 = 0.24
d = 489.89mm
Diameter of the shell is 490 mm
(f) Considering thin shell theory find the allowable thickness of side shell plating
where working pressure does not exceed 5kg/ cm2. Ultimate tensile stress of the
material 240MN/m2.Take factor of safety is 6
SOLUTION: According to the thin shell theory
f =

P = Working pressure = 0.5 MN/ m2
we know that,
working stress =

t = 3.06 mm
Since the thickness obtained is very small, for a safer consideration of value, we
assume it to be 5mm.
C)
A) Comment upon the sacrificial anodes required in cooling of this type as designed
Answer: There are two ways of protecting the sea water cooling side of heat
exchanger by coating and by cathodic protection systems. The fresh water side of the
heat exchanger is protected by addition of chemical additives to cooling water.
Coating varying to bitumen based paints through the epoxy coatings
of various forms can be based to protect water boxes and water box covers. In other
cases rubber sheet materials may be bonded to the mild steel or steel or cast iron so
that sea water cannot make contact with steel or cast iron. The steel or cast iron is
then, in effect electrically insulated from the sea water which is in contact with other
metals of heat exchanger.
Cathodic protection systems using sacrificial anodes are also used
within the sea water spaces of heat exchangers. The metals used for sacrificial anodes
must be such that they are higher in the electromotive or galvanic series of metals then
the metals which they have to protect. These metals or alloys are referred to being
active or anodic. In descending order of the galvanic series, they are cadmium,
commercially pure aluminium, zinc and magnesium alloys. In the presence of sea water
and with continued electrical continuity, the anode waste away and so protect the other
metals within the heat exchanger. In some cases a protective or passive film is
deposited on the metals being protected.
Chemical additives in fresh water are known as inhibitors. There
action creates a protective film of passive material on the metallic surfaces which they
protect. They not only protect the heat exchangers but other parts of cooling system in
which they circulate.
B) Give the suitable materials required for various components under construction
ANSWER: Tubes _ Aluminium brass
Anode - Zinc and Aluminium
End cover and water boxes - Cast iron & fabrication from mild steel
-
Shell - Gun metal
Baffle plates - Monel metal
Gasket - Nitrile rubber
Although there is an abundance of free sea water available, marine diesel engines do not use it directly to keep the hottest parts of the engine cool. This is because of the corrosion which would be caused in the cooling water spaces, and the salts which would be deposited on the cooling surfaces interfering with the heat flow.
Instead, the water circulated around the engine is fresh water (or better still, distilled water) which is then itself cooled using sea water. This fresh water is treated with chemicals to keep it slightly alkaline (to prevent corrosion) and to prevent scale formation. Of course, if distilled water, which some ships can make from sea water using evaporators, is used then there is a reduced risk of scale formation.
The cooling water pump which may be engine driven or be a separate electrically driven pump pushes the water around the circuit. After passing through the engine, where it removes the heat from the cylinder liners, cylinder heads, exhaust valves and sometimes the turbochargers, it is cooled by seawater and then returns to the engine. The temperature of the cooling water is closely controlled using a three way control valve. If the water is allowed to get too cold then it will cause thermal shocking which may lead to component failure and will also allow water and acids to condense on the cylinder bores washing away the lubricating film and causing corrosion. If it gets too hot then it will not remove the heat effectively causing excessive wear and there is a greater danger of scale formation. For this reason the cooling water outlet temperature is usually maintained at about 78-82C. Because it is at a higher temperature than the cooling water used for other purposes (known as the LT cooling), the water for cooling the engine is known as the HT (High Temperature) cooling water.
Cooling can be achieved by using a dedicated cooler or by mixing in some of the water from the LT cooling circuit. The LT cooling water is then cooled in the sea water coolers. The temperature is controlled using cascade control which monitors both the inlet and outlet temperatures from the engine. This allows a fast response to any change in temperature due to a change in engine load.
To make up for any leaks in the system there is a header tank, which automatically makes up any deficiency. Vents from the system are also led to this header tank to allow for any expansion in the system and to get rid of any air (if you are familiar with a domestic central heating system then you will see the similarities). The header tank is relatively small, and usually placed high in the engine room. It is deliberately made to be manually replenished, and is fitted with a low level alarm. This is so that
-
any major leak would be noticed immediately. Under normal conditions, the tank is checked once per watch, and if it needs topping up, then the amount logged.
The system will also contain a heater which is to keep the cooling water hot when the engine is stopped, or to allow the temperature to be raised to a suitable level prior to starting. Some ships use a central cooling system, whereby the same cooling water is circulated through the main engine(s) and the alternator engines. This system has the advantage whereby the engines which are stopped are kept warm ready for immediate starting by the engines which are running.
A fresh water generator (FWG) which is used to produce fresh water from sea water is also incorporated.
A drain tank has been included. This is for when the engine is drained down for
maintenance purposes. Because of the quantities of water involved and the chemical
treatment, it is not economically viable or environmentally responsible to dump the
treated water overboard each time. This way the water can be re used.

Project #6
STEERING GEAR
Amoco Cadiz was a very large crude carrier (VLCC), owned by Amoco, that ran aground on Portsall Rocks, 5 km (3.1 mi) from the coast of Brittany, France, on 16 March 1978, and ultimately split in three and sank, all together resulting in the largest oil spill of its kind in history to that date. What was the reason of such an catastrophic disaster. The answer is in this project.

INTRODUCTION
The direction of the ship is controlled by the steering gear. As the ship moves through the water, the angle of the rudder at the stern determines the direction it will move. Modern ships are so big that moving the rudder necessitates the use of hydraulics or electrical power. The steering starts at the Bridge. The required rudder angle is transmitted hydraulically or electrically from the steering wheel at the Bridge to the telemotor at the steering gear, just above the rudder.
There are a few common arrangements for using hydraulic power. There are the 4-rams, 2-rams, and rotary vane types. The heart of these hydraulic systems is the variable delivery pump. This type of pump can be controlled by just moving a spindle. The pump is driven by an electrical motor at constant speed.
By moving the control spindle away from the central point, the pump stroke increases, and the hydraulic fluid is pumped in one direction. Moving the spindle more from the central point will cause more fluid to be pumped and consequently more pressure is generated to drive the rams. Moving the control
-
spindle back to the original position and then away in the opposite direction causes the hydraulic fluid to be pumped in the reversed direction. The rams will also move in the reversed direction. By using a floating lever feedback mechanism, when the rudder stock has reached the desired angle, the pump control lever moves back to the original position, and the pumping action stops. The rudder is stopped at the required angle. Moving the steering wheel to the opposite direction will cause the rudder to come back to the original zero position.

(a) Rudder Area and Dimensions
The area of rudder is added to the area of the immersed
middle plane value at this ratio normally between 60 and 70.
Since speed of vessel is 60 knots, we can use area formula as
-
Area of Rudder =
Where L = LBP in m = 120 m
H = Max loaded draught = 6.7 m
A = 120 x 67
60
A = 13.4 m2
Rudder area is 13.4 m2
But
= 1.5
h = 1.5 b
Where h = height of rudder in meters
b = breadth of rudder in meters
Area of rudder = h X b
13.4 = 1.5 b X b
b = 2.98 m
h = 1.5 X 2.98
h = 4.48 m
These are the dimensions of the rudder
(b) Maximum force on Rudder
Force acting on the rudder is given by
F = 577 X A X V2 X sin
-
Where A = area of rudder in m2 = 13.4 m2
V = velocity of water passed in m/s
= 16 knots
= (16 X 0.5144) /
= Angle subtended between rudder and the center
line of the ship for maximum force
= 35
F = 577 X 13.4 X(16 X 0.5144)2X sin 35
Max Force on Rudder = 300.38 KN
(c) Maximum Bending movement and Torque on the rudder stock
with lower pintle.
Since it can be treated as a SSB, when rudder is supported by
lower pintle, the max Bending movement is given by
F = (4 + 2

Also Max torque = Force X Distance from axis
= F X a
Where a = x - 0.7
= (0.195 + 0.305sin ) b 0.7
-
b = 2.98 m
a = (0.195 + 0.305sin 35) X 2.98 - 0.7
= 1.1 - 0.7
a = 0.4 m
Max Torque = F X a
= 300.38 X 103 X 0.4
= 120.152 KN-m
Maximum Bending movement and Torque on the rudder stock
without lower pintle.
Max Torque will be same for rudder having lower pintle and
without lower pintle
Max. Torque = 120.152 KN-m
Since it is cantilever beam, when it is considered for rudder
without lower pintle
Max. B.M. = Force X Distance from rudder stock bearing to

Where L = 0.4 + 2

-
(d) Diameter of Rudder stock with lower pintle
The equivalent torque is given by
Teq =(Mmax)2 + (Tmax)2
As we have already found max B.M. and max Torque with
lower pintle
Teq =(567.718)2 + (120.152)2
= 580.29 KN-m
20% increase has to be done for undue forces

CONCEPT REVIEW QUESTIONS
Describe the sequence of events in the accident of Amoco Cadiz.
En route from the Persian Gulf to Rotterdam, Netherlands, via a scheduled stop at Lyme Bay, Great Britain, the ship encountered stormy weather with gale conditions and high seas while in the English Channel. At around 09:45, a heavy wave hit the ship's rudder and it was found that she was no longer responding to the helm. This was due to the shearing of Whitworth thread studs in the Hastie four ram steering gear, built under licence in Spain, causing a loss of hydraulic fluid. Attempts to repair the damage
-
were made but proved unsuccessful. While the message "no longer manoeuvrable" and asking other vessels to stand by was transmitted at 10:20, no call for tug assistance was issued until 11:20.
Amoco Cadiz contained 1,604,500 barrels (219,797 tons) of light crude oil from Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia and Kharg Island, Iran. Severe weather resulted in the complete breakup of the ship before any oil could be pumped out of the wreck, resulting in its entire cargo of crude oil (belonging to Shell) and 4,000 tons of fuel oil being spilled into the sea.
