Ballast pumps have individual suction filters provided. Onboard your ship it is seen that during ballasting the ballast pump suction is getting blocked very frequently during ballasting. You should:

Which of the following metals can be used as sacrificial anode for protection of Mild Steel

After overhauling a centrifugal pump you have found that the motor electrical connection was wrongly done and pump is rotating in opposite direction. Determine the outcome when the pump is started

Auxiliary engine connecting rod bolts should be renewed

The cooling S.W. temperature rise through the condenser of Fresh water generator has increased. What does it indicate?

For a globe valve in operation it is seen that the gland packing is leaking when the valve is kept in throttled position. Tightening of the gland packings doesn???t help much.Second Engineer decides to keep the valve fully open and it is seen that the Gland packing leakage suddenly stops!! The most probable reason why the leakage stopped is

You have to open up a F.O. heater for cleaning. As 2nd engineer has reported that the valves of F.O. inlet is not holding, the M/E was changed over to D.O. during arrival port and the F.O. system was shut down after arrival port. You have been instructed to open up the heater. What will you do?

Corrosion resistance of stainless steel in presence of o2 in aerated water?

During cleaning of the sea water suction filter, it was found that at some places the mesh size has increased either due to corrosion or due to mechanical Damage. What action is required?

Which of the following valves are not designed normally for bi-directional flow(return type or two-way flow valve)?

Deballasting of Fore peak tank, which was full, was commenced. The suction pressure was positive until the sounding was 2.0 m and the gland packing was found leaking. Below 2.0m sounding the suction went into slight vacuum and the leakage of gland stopped. Deballasting was normal until the tank sounding was 150 cm when the pump lost suction& the suction pressure gauge first started fluctuating and the suddenly started showing positive pressure. The most probable cause leading to pump losing suction could be:

Polymer treatment is restricted only to low pressure boilers because

Older tankers were designed to carry clean ballast in cargo tanks(CBT). Assume that Ballast Water and the crude oil have same density. While pumping out crude oil the motor of the cargo pump for CBT will draw _______ current compared to when pumping Ballast given that the same discharge pressure is maintained in both the cases.
