Publisher: Oxford : Butterworth-Heinemann, 1996Edition: [Rev.] 2nd ed.Description: ix, 372p. : ill.ISBN: 9780080509174 (e-book).Subject(s): Marine engineering | Transport | Marine engineering | Science: general issues | Technology: general issues | Navigation & seamanship | Ships & boats: general interest | Boatbuilding & maintenanceGenre/Form: Electronic books.Online resources: View this item online Also available in printed form ISBN 9780750625302Summary: Covering the syllabus for Class 4 and 3 Engineer's Certificates of competency this book explains the operation of a ship's machinery with emphasis placed on the newer concepts of fuel and energy efficiency and cost saving in the marine industry. This second edition deals comprehensively with all aspects of a ship's machinery from propulsion and steering to deck machinery and electrical equipment with a strong emphasis upon correct and safe procedures.Material has been added and revised to reflect the greater weight now being placed upon the cost-effective operation of ships; in terms of greater equipment reliability, more fuel-efficient engines, the ever-increasing shift towards automatically operated machinery, and the need for fewer engineering crew. This is an invaluable guide for professionals but equally covers the requirements for Class 4 and Class 3 Engineer's Certificates of Competency, the first two years of the Engineer Cadet Training Scheme, and the Engineering Knowledge syllabus for the Master's Certificate.
