HISTORY
This Report is made on the Visit of a Steam Turbine Ship. Which completely works on the STEAM,
(Ship’s Propelling, Electric Power on Ship and other different Usages) Almost all the work executes
into the Ship based on Steam or linked directly or indirectly to the Steam.

MAIN EQUIPMENTS FITTED ON THE SHIP

1- Auxiliary boiler of 10 Bar.( Fire tube boiler).
2- 2 Main Boilers working on 60bar and 450 degree centigrade. (Water Tube).
3- Main and Auxiliary condenser.
4- Main and Auxiliary condensate Pumps.
5- Turbo generators for Electric Power Production.
6- Main turbine for ship’s movement (Propelling).
7- Helical Reduction Gear Box.
8- Feed water Pumps (3 in numbers) Also works on the Steam.
9- Feed Water Tanks.

AREAS OF INTEREST FOR US:

Boilers, Turbo Generators, Condenser and Feed Water Pumps.

WORKING CYCLE:
It is a perfectly Rankine’s Cycle. In this case mainly we are takings power output on the Turbine
to propel the Ship, and Power Generation is the Sub use of Steam. Such as a Rankine’s Cycle
here is also 4 main Components.

HOW THEY ARE USING STEAM

First of all they run the Auxiliary boiler of 10 Bar and take the output of steam to run the Feed
water pumps as well as Lubrication Pumps. Then they start the Main boiler By Firing inside the
boiler. Then they take output of that Steam on Turbo generators for Power Generation and as well
as on the Turbine to propelling Purpose.

DETAILS OF MAIN PARTS:

1- BOILERS (MAIN)
Two FOSTER WHEELER EXTERNAL SUPER HEAT DAMMPER CONTROL D type boilers
fitted on the ship with minimum 250 Degree centigrade (Axially steam ) to 450°Cmain steam.
Axially steam then Passed through the Super heater to make the Super-heated Steam Which has
reduced water droplets as compare to De super-heated Steam
Super-heated steam is use for Turbo generators for Power Generation and on Main Propeller
Turbine.

2- TURBO GENERATORS
Two 750KWs turbo generators with 11200 Rpm and 50Hz frequency which can be Synchronized
with each other fitted on the ship to meet the Power Requirement of the Ship’s as well as Ship’s
people.

3- MAIN TURBINE WITH HELICAL REDUCTION GEAR BOX

Main turbine Runs on a certain Rpm and reduction gear reduce the Rpm to Transmit 1-96 Rpm
on the propeller Shaft. Which gives a 1-13 Nautical miles/ Hour (Approximately 2-24Kms / Hr)

4- FEED WATER PUMPS

Three Feed Water Pumps fitter on ship which runs only 1 pump at time to supply feed water
continuously to boiler which starts work 1st on small 10 bar Fire tube Boiler than Shifted To to
main Boiler’s De-superheated steam. Working on 6000Rpm and 24bar Pressure.

5- MAIN AND AUXIALLRY CONDENSER

Both Condensers are equipped with 1 Condenser Pump and 1 condensate pump Condenser Pump
takes Suction directly from the Sea and condense the Steam Returns coming from the Turbo
generators , Turbines and feed water pumps. And Condensate Pump returns the feed water to the
Main Feed Water Tank.

BOILER MAIN PARTS WITH WORKING

1-Main Stop Valve
It is use to Stop the Main steam in case of any emergency this valve usually operates Out side the
Boiler Room.

2- Safety Valve
Purpose and function of Safety valves. The primary purpose of a safety valve is the protection of
life, property and environment. A safety valve is designed to open and relieve excess pressure from
vessels or equipment and to reclose and prevent the further release of fluid after normal conditions
have been restored.

3- Economizer
A common application of economizers in steam power plants is to capture the waste heat from boiler
stack gases (flue gas) and transfer it to the boiler feedwater. This raises the temperature of the boiler
feedwater, lowering the needed energy input, in turn reducing the firing rates needed for the rated
boiler output

4-Comustion Chamber
Power Plant Engineering NEDUET

A closed room where combustion takes place.

5-Burner
Continue provide Fuel with the help of injector for combustion.

6-Force Driven Fans or Force Draft fans

Use to Supply hot air for Mixing with Fuel for Combustion.

DETAIL WORKING OF BOILER

Initially Feed water pump started at 6000Rpm and 24 bar feed water pump take water through Head
from Feed Water Tanks. 2ppm distilled water is used in boiler. Than water is pumped into the water
drum through the economizer, water drum is inside the boiler casing and many tubes are fitted on
water drum, Both the Tubes and the drums are inside the furnace and started the Burner (Diesel
injector type 06 injectors are fitted on the Burner). High velocity air is also throw in to the furnace
for increasing the heating area on the tube of water. Water starts to become steam and went to steam
drum than we Extract 2 lines from to top steam drum 1 went to Super heater for making Super-heated
steam and 1 directly on De super-heated steam header for Auxiliary use.

We have 1 more line provided in the bottom of Steam drum through which all water particles return
back in to the water drum.

The super-heated steam went to steam Header, Turbo generators and on Turbine for ship movement.

The steam returns from Turbo generators and Main turbine which is actually a low pressure steam is
dumped into the condenser. Condenser is taking sea water via pump and providing the water into the
tubes of condenser to condense the steam.

1 pump is fitted at the bottom of Condenser which is transferring the whole condensate to main Feed
water tanks.
