h) The 2.5m3 header tanks are located on deck 6 for the forward
system and deck 5 for the aft system and are replenished as
required in order to ensure that there is the correct suction head
on the respective systems. The tanks are replenished from the
distilled water transfer system (see section 6.3.6 Non-Potable
Water System). Water tests should be carried out on a daily
basis in order to determine the level of corrosion inhibition in
the water. Treatment chemicals must be added as required after
the necessary quantity has been determined from the chemical
analysis. Care must be exercised when handling and mixing
chemicals.

g) Check the air dryers and ensure that they are ready for
operation.
h) Start the air dryers and ensure that water is being drained
correctly.
The air dryers must be operated in accordance with the manufacturer’s operating
instructions. The dryers must be started with inlet and outlet air valves closed.
When the dryer is operating satisfactorily, the inlet valve is opened in order to
pressurise the unit. The outlet air valve is opened about 5 minutes after the inlet
valve has been opened. When shutting down an air dryer, the air outlet valve
is closed followed by the inlet valve about 2 minutes later.

2.5.3 General Service Air System Accommodation General Service Air System
Air is supplied to various direct users from the ring main by means of isolating
valves. These valves should be opened as required in order to supply a
particular service.
Note: Some items of equipment are supplied directly from the service air
ring main and others are supplied by means of isolating valves. Even where a
direct supply line is used, there is an isolating valve at the item of equipment
and the section of ring main supplying the direct connection can be isolated
by means of valves.
Sea chests are supplied with compressed air from the general service air system
for weed clearing purposes. The air supply line attaches to the weed clearing
steam inlet line via a non-return valve.

j) All officers and technical staff should be competent in the

High Voltage
High voltage circuits are potentially more dangerous than low or medium
voltage circuits. This is not only due to the increased voltage, but also the
explosion risk and because, under certain circumstances, high voltage circuits
can retain a lethal charge even when switched off. In addition, dangerous
potentials exist some distance from the actual live high voltage conductors, the
distance being determined by the conductor voltage and the dielectric strength
of the insulating materials (including air) surrounding the conductor.

initial starting, remnant magnetism in the alternator’s rotor produces a low
stator output voltage. This is fed to the AVR and depending on the alternator
voltage output reference signal level, the AVR thyristors’ output is regulated
and fed to the exciter stator windings. The magnetic field in the exciter stator
induces AC into the exciter rotor, which is rectified by the rotating diode set
and passed to the main rotor DC windings. This increases the rotor excitation
and in turn, the stator output. The output voltage then ramps up in a cumulative
process.
In normal operation, the excitation levels are boosted for heavy loads and
reduced for light loads. This provides a constant output voltage independent
of load levels.

the boiler. Each boiler is fitted with operated steam sootblowers. f) Close the steam supply valve to the sootblowers and open the

(Author`s Note: Details of sootblowers and thir operation to insert when it
is available.)
The sootblowers use steam as the operating medium and the drain line from a
sootblower should be open at all times when a sootblower is not being operated.
The sootblowers directs the steam through nozzles in the lance enabling it to
impact the surfaces from which soot is to be removed. The impact of the steam
on the surface dislodges the soot thus cleaning the tube surface. The operating
cycle of the sootblower is one blowing revolution of the lance.
The sootblower is air sealed and an air supply must always be available at the
sootblower in order to seal the unit and prevent the escape of boiler combustion
gases into the engine room.
Sootblowing has to be carried out at regular intervals to ensure that the heat
transfer surfaces are kept clear of deposits, as these retard heat transfer and can
constitute a fire hazard.
The sootblowers should be operated every day when boilers are in use, bearing
in mind the position of the vessel and any local legislation concerning pollution

Exhaust Gas Economiser Fires Procedure for Emergency Action in the Event of a Severe Soot Fire

which under certain conditions may develop into a high temperature fire. b) Keep the circulating pump running.

economiser.
A hydrogen fire occurs due to the fact that water (H2O) dissociates into
hydrogen and oxygen at high temperatures; carbon monoxide may occur under
certain conditions when carbon is present. Hydrogen is a combustible gas and
a hydrogen fire may start if the temperature is above 1,000°C.
An iron fire means that the oxidation of iron at high temperatures occurs at a
rate sufficiently high to make the amount of heat released from the reactions
sustain the process. Oxidation of iron at room temperature (rusting) is a slow
process but it still involves the liberation of heat. An iron fire may take place
at a temperature in excess of 1,100°C.
Small soot fires may occur especially during manoeuvring with the diesel
generator engines in low load operation. These fires do not cause damage to
the EGE but the fires should be carefully monitored. The heat developed by the
soot fire will increase the tube wall temperature until a state of equilibrium is
reached, ie, the heat removed by the water in the EGE tubes corresponds to the
heat generated from the soot fire. In most cases the situation gets no worse but
if the soot fire is severe, heat removal may be at a lower rate than generation
and the temperature locally may increase to a point where a hydrogen or iron
fire can occur. A hydrogen fire will only occur if water, or particularly, steam
is present. The EGEs are cleaned of light soot deposits by means of the sonic
cleaning system thus steam is not directed at the tubes at any time. However, in
the event of tube failure resulting in a steam/water mixture entering the exhaust
gas pathway, a hydrogen fire could result.
