Welcome back to the Fluctus channel for a new feature on ship propulsion systems. In this episode we highlight the most powerful ship engine ever built from design, construction to operation. Whether preventive or corrective, repair and maintenance of the various components, including crankshaft and propellers, preserve the durability and efficiency of the ship engine.

AT 2:17 it should say "a bore of 960mm and a stroke of 2500mm".

Was about to say the same. Many years ago was Engineer officer on container vessel, that had 10cly 900mm bore 1590mm stroke. That was way back in 1976, even then used about 100tonnes of fuel per day at full speed. Happy days.

@Tinker1950 4 ай бұрын

I believe you'll find he mentioned the wide bore and short stroke at the beginning of the video. In the automobile world this is referred to as an 'over-square engine. All high performance engines are built is way. Referring to marine diesels, common sense tells me that with the huge reciprocating mass of the pistons and connecting rods a similar design is essential to reduce bearing stresses and external dimensions of the complete power-plant.

@CFish1997 4 ай бұрын

Depends greatly on ship/engine size. A modern slow speed diesel engine today on an "average" sized ship is usually a 6 cylinder engine, about 500mm bore, and turns out about 15k horsepower at 110ish RPM. These engines burn about 30 tons per day. Larger engines with more cylinders burn more. Anywhere between 90-150+ tons per day.

Look at all those crankshafts and connecting rods. You can see multiple machining passes on them because their machine was only big enough to do a partial plane. So some of the flat surfaces you can see 3 or 4 passes across just to make them into 1 single flat cut. With boats getting bigger all the time, and already the machines aren't big enough to make parts in 1 cut, it looks like there would be room for a company that could make big enough machines to make these parts better. They really look very crude if you compare them to high quality engine parts for cars. It's easier to make them nice on a small size. It looks like there's tons of room for improvement. They clearly aren't forged either, just milled to final shape. If they were forged and WPC and cryo treated, they could easily make those parts half the weight and they would be much stronger and way longer lasting and more efficient. But it would take an enormous facility to be able to do that and it would cost billions to make. But it would pay for itself after not too many years if ships keep staying huge and getting bigger.

Compare it with this monstrosity of ony 80000 kw There is great disconnect here, given the need of using all available volume for cargo. Comments anyone?
