Module Content

Outline Syllabus:Space engineering - to become aware of issues surrounding the layout of a machinery space taking account of items such as pipe routes, tankage, proximity to associated plant, maintenance space, access and safety etc. Prime mover performance - become aware of all factors that influence performance and output of prime movers, e.g. altitude, ambient conditions, back pressures (exhaust), noise suppression, emissions control etc. Detailed development of P & ID's. NTU method for evaluation of heat exchanger performance. Condition monitoring techniques including vibration analyses. HAZOP studies. Shafting Alignment.
Module Overview:
The aim the module is to provide you with the appropriate level of marine engineering knowledge and expertise required of an effective member of a marine engineering design team.
Additional Information:The module is designed to provide the student with an in-depth grounding of the typical practices and procedures that they will encounter should they pursue a career in the Marine Engineering Design environment. The module will also provide a good grounding for those students pursuing careers in other industries such as power generation and process engineering.
