I just want to say Thank You! I was a pipefitter at one of the largest shipyards in the US and got to participate in Main Engine start on several new vessels we constructed! I have also built Ships Starting Air compressors and worked on Pipe Test!

first of all thank you for the video, im a first engineer and currently doing marine engineering clases , so because of the pandemic maybe will no be able to use the simulator ofc the university and i was looking something free to do some online leason your tutorial was good , but can improve in concepts for example, when you where transfering fuel with the transfer pump you will never close the valves before stopping the pump (positive desplacement pump for fuel system of course you still have a relief valve) also you say it but you would have never start suply and booster pumps of the fuel system before having the service tank with a good level also you before you start the main engine you supose to have the boiler circ pump for the exhaust recovery system already running to not melt down the economaizer also normally you start the lub oil purifier before the main engine that help you to reach the temperature of the oil otherwise would be to cold (but that software problem) when you transfer form sludge tank from oily bilge separator to the fo trasnfer system you would never never never put it in the DO storage, some chief eng order to put it back to some fo storage to save money personally i would never do it you would fuck up your engine those are my feedback but very good specially if you are not a marine engineer

Thank you Felipe. I have been wanting to re-do this video and try to follow procedure more carefully. Your comments will help. I will train with that procedure. I do not work in the marine industry and have no industry experience. I am simply a fan of marine engineering. Thank you for all you do, and good luck with your career. I wish I could go back to my early 20's and join a marine academy.

New challenge. Run the engine through a two hour stream 'voyage' whilst 'buying' (shore intake) the least amount of fuel possible

@Usul 3 жыл бұрын

That would be interesting. Unfortunately I don't think you could start the engine with only two hours fuel on board. There are minimums that have to be crossed before certain equipment will operate properly. You could attempt to start it with minimal fuel, or start it quickly. The fastest I've ever been able to start the main engine is around 30 minutes. I imagine with practice someone could start it much faster.

@@Usul I've had plenty of time with this software and believe to have found most of its little bugs. I've never timed myself but I can get a dead ship to crank in what I believe to be 10 minutes. Now you can take advantage of the bilge system and flood the tank with straight seawater to start the OWS

@SmokyPizza6853 3 жыл бұрын

Step 1: use seawater to fill bilge tanks. Step 2: set oily water separator to auto Step 3: wait and transfer oil in collection tank to HFO bunker Step 4: sell oil at Port as "Excess fuel" Step 5: Profit

@Usul 3 жыл бұрын

@@SmokyPizza6853 , I agree that is a super annoying bug. Using shore power, and just a tiny bit of shore DO (to start steam), you can use the OWS to generate infinite HFO and DO. Maybe this vessel isn't sailing in the saltwater ocean, but in a vast sea of hydrocarbons instead? Do you work in the maritime industry?

@daeronbarth1098 8 жыл бұрын

wow really nice. I am not a professional just a curious and machines lover. So I have some questions if you don't mind. Why the engine needs a lub oil and fuel oil separator ? And why the steam ?.

@Usul 8 жыл бұрын

The reason you need a separator is to remove contaminates from lube and fuel oil. Stuff like chemical contaminants, water, and other junk need to be removed from the oil before being fed to the main engine. Cooling water can end up in the oil, there might be oil recovered from the bilge, or maybe you were forced to bunker terrible oil from some questionable port. There are plenty of places where contamination can enter the system. Steam is critical for many ship operations. It is used in the separators, and is also used to heat heavy oils making them easier to transfer with pumps. If the oil gets too cool, you wouldn't be able to transfer enough of it to feed the main engine. It actually needs to be pretty warm for it to flow easily. Steam is a safe way to heat the oil, as opposed to using electrical or other sources (which may be a fire hazard). The boiler can also be used to provide heat to the ship's cabin, clean water, and many other useful things.

@daeronbarth1098 8 жыл бұрын

Oh I see. Thanks for answering. It seems the main engine can rotate the shaft for both sides, is that true and that is used for what ?

@meinfraulein380 5 жыл бұрын

steam is to preheat the oil coming to separator. heat aids in better separation of unlike density electric preheaters are present in boiler burners.

I did not make this software. It is professional training software. The current versions cost thousands of dollars and needs to be purchased through a special marine training supplier. They do not sell it to the general public. I wish it were more available. I think a solid simulator like this would do very well on Steam. Totally agree. I do not think the owner of this software company cares about making the software more accessible.

@Usul 3 жыл бұрын

@@clintdenndalangpan8938, I did this to cause a fault on purpose. The free version of the software does not let you introduce faults. I caused an overspeed condition on the engine on purpose to cause an overspeed trip and main engine shut down. It is useful to see how the systems react to a multi-system failure. Doing this to an actual engine would probably be a great way to get fired.
