Main engine is used for propulsion of ship.
To stop a main engine of a ship, first ensure that the engine is operating under safe conditions and that all necessary protocols are followed. Gradually reduce the power by shifting the throttle to the "stop" or "idle" position, allowing the engine to decelerate. Once the engine has slowed down sufficiently, engage the stop button or switch to shut it down completely. Finally, conduct a safety check to ensure all systems are secure and operationally safe.
A ship may have several engines that do different jobs. These might include generating electricity, running refrigeration, producing hydraulic pressure or running pumps. The main engine on a ship is the engine used to drive the propellers. Sometimes a ship may have more than one propulsive engine but it would be called main engine number....
Maine engine(s) using for propulsion purpose.
by running refrigeration,hydraulic pupm
The propulsion engine on a ship or aircraft is the MAIN engine. -Many aircraft and almost all ships have smaller engines just to produce electrical and hydraulic power.
Stop the ship.
main part of a ship
Their main ship was the Mayflower.
Followings could be some reasons for raise in fuel consumption of a ship: 1- Bad quality fuel 2- faulty fuel pump/ fuel valves (main engine) 3- ship's bottom being dirty 4- faulty turbo charger (main engine) 5- blow by of the piston rings (main engine) 5- leaky inlet/exh. valves (main engine) 6- leakage in fuel system (pipping) 7- faulty fuel oil separator 8- Unprefect bunckering 9-.....etc.
Importance of watch engine of the ship?
Engine Performance Report is a complied reports of the performance of the main engine/s. It is were the performance of the engine is recorded base on the performance of the engine. This report is used for reporting the performance of the engine so that the engineers will know about the condition of the engine weather it is in good or bad state. This report is used to inform also the ship company about the condition of their ship's engine. source: Experience
