In order for a ship to operate efficiently, the correct operation and maintenance of marine auxiliary machinery is necessary.
This book is greatly relevant for marine engineering officers, undergraduate students, and those preparing for marine engineering competency certificate exams. It provides all the requisite updates and developments in the field of marine and technology. This book forms an integral part of ship technology and marine engineering syllabus.
There are various aspects of this book that are very useful. The revised chapter on Control Engineering is of greater practical help to those sailing with automated machinery. There are in depth diagrams and explanations on a wide range of auxiliary machinery found at sea. This is one must-have marine machinery book for all marine engineering students and ship’s engine crew. It provides comprehensive description for all engine room systems and offers elaborated explanation for different marine auxiliary machinery systems. Modernisation in marine engineering understanding of the rules and regulations, and principles are conveyed in a practical oriented, easily accessible orderly fashion. In this new edition due attention has been given to the changes brought about by the Ratification of the 1974 IMO Convention of the Safety of Life at Sea and some areas of the text have been expanded.
