IMPACT OF HVAC SYSTEM UPON FUNCTIONAL PARAMETERS OF MAIN ENGINE FOR A VLCC SHIP

The performance of any system on board ship is specifically identified with its reliability. So as to get the best out of marine motors, it is critical to screen their performances and take measures to accomplish productive combustion. As a result of heat gains on board ships from engine rooms and crew, the increase in humidity as well as due to the various releases of gases from on board systems, room air deteriorates, requiring replacement and its processing through the HVAC (heat, ventilation and air conditioning) system. The combustion process in diesel engines is the most complex and difficult to address. HVAC system has a definitory role for diesel engine combustion.
