16
The crank web deflection readings of a diesel engine would be erroneous in which of the following conditions?
17
Your ship has an OWS and reciprocating bilge pump of capacity 2.0 m3 /hr. It takes about 12 hours to pump out the complete bilge tank through OWS. The ship is going to dry-dock and Chief Engineer is recommending company to install a centrifugal pump of 10 m3 capacity which will take the same space and can pump out the bilge tank only in 2.5 hrs. The company should:
