Displacement is 5,327 cc (5.3 L; 325.1 cu in) from a bore and stroke of 96 mm × 92 mm (3.78 in × 3.62 in). Vortec 5300s were built in St. Catharines, Ontario , and Romulus, Michigan . The aluminum block variants, the LM4 and the L33, share the same displacement, but instead use an aluminum block with cast-in cylinder liners, much like the LS1.
The rotor of a turbo generator is a non-salient pole type usually with two poles. [5] The normal speed of a turbo generator is 1500 or 3000 rpm with four or two poles at 50 Hz (1800 or 3600 rpm with four or two poles at 60 Hz). The rotating parts of a turbo generator are subjected to high mechanical stresses because of the high operation speed.
140-ton – also described as 135-ton – vertical triple-expansion engine of the type used to power World War II Liberty ships, assembled for testing prior to delivery. The engine is 21 feet (6.4 meters) long and 19 feet (5.8 meters) tall and was designed to operate at 76 rpm and propel a Liberty ship at about 11 kn (13 mph; 20 km/h).
The General Electric LM6000 is a turboshaft aeroderivative gas turbine engine. The LM6000 is derived from the CF6-80C2 aircraft turbofan.It has additions and modifications designed to make it more suitable for marine propulsion, industrial power generation, and marine power generation use.
The General Electric LM2500 is an industrial and marine gas turbine produced by GE Aviation.The LM2500 is a derivative of the General Electric CF6 aircraft engine.. As of 2004, the U.S. Navy and at least 29 other navies had used a total of more than one thousand LM2500/LM2500+ gas turbines to power warships. [1]
Placing the cooling radiator section in seawater rather than ambient air allows for the radiator to be smaller. The engine's cooling water may be used directly or indirectly for heating and cooling purposes of the ship. The Stirling engine has potential for surface-ship propulsion, as the engine's larger physical size is less of a concern.
The engine is the largest reciprocating engine in the world. The 14-cylinder version first entered commercial service in September 2006 aboard the Emma Mærsk . The design is similar to the older RTA96C engine, but with common rail technology (in place of traditional camshaft , chain gear , fuel pump and hydraulic actuator systems).
Main engine deck of a cargo vessel Location of a ship's engine room on a bulk carrier Engine room of the Mercy Ship Caribbean Mercy in 1997. Her propulsion diesel is an MAK. EMD diesels in the engine room of the Research Vessel Davidson circa 2002. On a ship, the engine room (ER) [1] is the compartment where the machinery for marine propulsion ...
