Ships Engine

[iampeeay01]

impressive video... this helped in my sons assignment on engines... Blessings to you... :)

[Mahavipu]

well maintained engine

[DanMcLambert]

Nice Video.

[Daobar]

good, clean engine room, congatulations!

[Daobar]

Nuts and bolts in crankcase are secured with binding wire, tricky job with oily sweatslippery hands after 15 hrs of hard work. Apart from that a nice engine :)

[Gohot229]

I imaging that the Titanic engine room guys thought they had harnessed the worlds most power. And no doubt it was impressive, but we all know what happened. These are little cities and worlds unto themselves. Almost undreamable in size.

[kukumberrr]

i've been there about 6 years ago :P

[bakuryo1000]

so hard to be a marine engeneering..

[grasscutter88]

I wonder if that thing shakes like crazy on shutdown like a diesel normally would on a pickup truck or eighteen wheeler.

[robstrevor]

Thats going on my Hyundai.

[cas1029]

i got my golf VR6 2.8 liter with 200bhp

I GOT A 14 inline 25480 liter with 109.000 bhp

[72fordmaverick]

the engine is so massive it seems each piston has its own head cylender interesting i wonder if they would take this approach with a normal car engine.

[mintossas]

MITSUI-MAN. engines 12 cylinder in line.Two stroke.These engines before many years was made in Denmark by a company called B&W.After many years of engine building the company was bought by Japanese MITSUI-MAN.

These engines are used for power stations also.We have them in CYPRUS.3 engines 17mw per engine

[MowgliX]

Very neaty and tidy! Impressive.

[Dav123xyz]

So you finished fiming about the start of the prop shaft?

[leovlie]

Great engine looks like a S/K90MC-C any how nice view

[AggemamManden]

Sounds good and as a 2-stroke low speed engine should sound. :)

[AggemamManden]

I stopped sailing as a marine engineer some 9 years ago because of medical reasons. I generally never comment on anything in here, but the sound of this engine, most at top level, hit something in me! I love that sound. I sometimes used to use no ear protection and just listen to the engine sound. Love it. :)

[MrAivJ]

I quit sailing for other personal reasons. But this engine sound just rips my heart out of my chest.

Really miss that too.

Chears!

[seamanrob]

and you got med sev for what? hearing loss?

[AggemamManden]

LOL! Not quite...i hear fine. :) No, it was other more serious reasons, but that's another story.

[nexprotein28]

The Engine room controls everything on a Ship. Everything. One cannot even shit legally at sea without engineering. All anti pollution and environment protection equipment is engineering based and in the E/R. Loading is Engineering. Discharging Cargo is Engineering. Moving ships is Engineering. Steering ships is Engineering. Making water or Power is on board is Engineering. Ship Captains know nothing on these. They don't even navigate as pilots are assigned each port. Grade 3 level job: Captain

[3mate1]

Now thats what I call a clean Engine Room... My hats off to your Wipers.

[Bevoin1970]

I thought exactly the same thing, it was spotless...... 10/10

[Mxsmanic]

Me too, everything seems squeaky clean. Either the ship just put to sea or someone's taking very good care of it.

[mijnboogje]

0.0 looks awesome

[parokj]

What engine did the cruise ships in the 50s have? can anyone tell me that?

[Nza420]

parokj -- they had smallblock chevy engines in the 50s

[scott93257]

Most were diesel

[tupsumato]

As scott93257 said most were diesels, but steam turbines were also quite common.

[leovlie]

If you want to see how to repair injectors like these see on fuel repair shop

[cosast54]

congratulations ! very clean

[gav152]

works between 30-110 rpm, normally the rpm was about 90.

[pelagic6]

Awesome, what kind of RPM does this engine get?

[VolgaMama]

Looks like MAN-B&W 9K80MC-C (or 70th engine with 3 injection fuel v/vs per cylinder). "Alpha" cylinder lubricating system as well... Not bad, enought fresh model)))

[skev247w]

I think that could be a sister ship of the one i was last on (ZIM PANAMA) Layout exactly the same

[gav152]

Zim Pusan, so yeh, definably sister ship. No bad ships like, everything new and sorted out, so fuck all work to do (like a cadet would do anything anyway..)..!

[ricturtle]

each cylinder has about 3 injectors planted around it

[98427586]

maquinas em funcionamento

[brush1934]

Search Under ground flour mill

[orion855]

Shit, how many cylinders and how much displacement???

[Ebbeboy]

Looks like a 12-cylinder engine. Displacement I don't know, but it puts out about 75000 horsepower. Check my videos for more.

[aflacduky]

now thants an injector lol

[technoman43]

now thats fucking cool!

[boo66]

An fair impression of the size is given when you went down stairs from cylinders to crankcase!

[Ebbeboy]

Actually he didn't go down to the crank case, only to the cam shaft deck :D The crank case is 2 or 3 floors lower!

[PRockRulez]

WOW! that engine is super awesome! :D Twas an awesome hogmanay dude!  stephen

[gav152]

that sounds sarcastic..! yeh man, was an ace night, have to do it again sometime man!

[yassine4902]

this is a 2 times(2 cycles) engine!they are very big, those type of engines are used especially ibig and not very fast vessels, cpntaimer sips,VLCC's,ULCC's...are using it beacause they are powerful!well this is whata studied in my first 2 years in the moroccan higher institue of maritime sudies,i'm a firs class engine student officer! a lot of noise engines but it's very interesting!

[TheChiefEngineer]

not very fast? if its a container ship i bet it does around 25-30 knots.

[DoubleM55]

OMG! How does this thing starts? Engines in cars starts on battery, but how to start that giant?

[Delveaux]

Compressed air.

[DoubleM55]

Awesome!

[robicool]

lol imagine having to hand-crank that baby over

[Gadgetglanman7]

Keep the breakers in! Keep em' in! (sparks flying) I would be scared to be trapped inside the engine room while the ship is sinking! In memory of the engineers of Titanic, Edmund Fitzgerald, Lusitania, Empress of Ireland and all the other ships that sank.

[joaocoupe]

Nice video of new MC engine with Alpa Lubricator...I work service the controls on a daily basis.

[morphix007]

not a single worker down there, times have changed sicne titanic

[davethedanger]

i saw a documentry on this engine. its 7 cylinders in a line. 7500 litres!!!!!and weights 650 tonnes and the whole thing is the size of a small 2 story house!

[Joshmcfee]

This was a UMS ship, so didn't need any after 6. I went down to take the vid at about 9, so was the only person down there.

Naughty,naughty,did you inform the bridge???Or were you duty??

[douro20]

If I am correct this engine doesn't have a timing cam, but rather hydraulically operated exhaust valves, which are controlled by a computer.

[SteffanLlwyd]

Strewth! I'd never have thought of that. How clever. What a beast. (But tripple-expansion engines still more fun to watch. Eg PS The Waverley.)

[gav152]

this engine has a camshaft. its rather large!

[SteffanLlwyd]

If you ever have a chance watch the start-up of the big stationary steam engine in the Kew Bridge Engine House (60inch dia. cylinder)

[wysoft]

Some do.

This particular engine is cam driven, though most large marine diesels have cam lobes driving per-valve hydraulic pumps. The valves are then operated by hydraulic action.

When the cameraman goes downstairs and immediately turns around, you can see the tubular housing which contains the camshaft.

[TheChiefEngineer]

this engine has a camshaft which operates both the fuel pumps and the pumps for the exhaust valves and also the air start distributor. there is a computer but it doesnt operate the valves

[Bullettube]

This looks more like the inside of a brewery!

[solarcat1]

LOL drink up!! :D

[bangsobatak]

What fleet you are? OOCL, MSC, Loyyd?

[gav152]

ZIM lines. American/Israeli company, managed by Zodiac maritime. Not the best company in the world..

[Jayc2400]

hmm... were are the rest of the watchstanders? or are you the only one?

[gav152]

This was a UMS ship, so didn't need any after 6. I went down to take the vid at about 9, so was the only person down there.

[bensonak47]

is it noisy and scary down there with noone

[gav152]

yeh, its quite noisy. what do you mean scary? like ghosts or somethings?!

[bensonak47]

like scary as if all alone and ghost ya something like it

[gav152]

dunno about ghosts, but i suppose it would be kinda scary if you were down there alone and you injured yourself badly. In the engine room, no one can hear you scream :)

[salemcripple]

seems to me they would make you wear safety "locaters" for that same purpose. You know like hikers and skiers have. Fire fighters, a police use them as well. All you do is pull the pin, then it sets off an alarm in the other units, as well as a homeing becon. Not only tells others that youre hurt, but lets them know where you are.

[gav152]

Actually, there is a 'Dead Man Alarm'. Once the system is switched on, whoever is down there has to press a button every 20-30 minutes. This resets the alarm. If they don't press the button, the alarm will go off after awhile, alerting the crew that someone maybe injured. It all depends on whether the person can be bothered using the system though.

[yassine4902]

hhh yeah that's true, a lot of noise! one advice: don't work alone and before that, have God with you! you see, you can't do better!by

[ROCKSOLID19]

I would finds dificulty fitting something like that in my Beetle.

[gav152]

yeh, mite have to take out a seat or two...:)

[Renatodonadio]

What type of engine? Sultzer Wartsila Common Rail?

[A350cid]

well done! i thought i heard each cylnder can be removed for service, and the engine will run on remaining cylnders

[gav152]

yeh, you can take out the piston's etc and it will still go, you can also shut down each piston so it's not firing. During slow running (30 rpm) half the cylinders are shut off to save fuel.

[sniper887]

What sort of RPM is that that engine turning?

[gav152]

About 95-100, the slowest it can go is 30 RPM

[sniper887]

Must be some serious torque in that engine

[groffsingen]

this engine is on a cont ship...same engine is used on almost every ship in the world thats hast a 2 stroke engine...very popular and reliable engine

[gigacannon]

Christ it looks tiny... What is it, a feeder ship, ~2000 TEU or something?

[gigacannon]

What type of ship is this?

[Countermad]

I am on a cruise ship and we have Wartsila 38 A*..Boy that engine is shitwork>D

[groffsingen]

Nice vid! I`m working on a pctc ship right now in a swedish company ,we have a smaler engine but its the same model a MAN b&w 8s60mc. =)

[0163068978]

I think that's maybe MANB&W isn't it?

[gav152]

yeh, it is. i think the type was 9k90 mc-c

[bobby388]

excellent ex sea going engineer brings back memories im taking this to bed with me. Bobby

[martrex]

Thanks for the memories. I'm an ex seagoing engineer. Pity you didn't take video further down to crankcase level.
