  • just bore it! It'll be fine!!! lol holy crap!

  • ya tats true, now a days you dont see these type of engines.this is a 28year old ship in which i served.probably got scrapped.

  • You don't see the RND / RLB type engines around much nowadays. Don't miss them either!

  • GREEK SHIPS AND GREEK CREWS 4 LIFE...FILLIPINOS, INDIANS, PAKISTANIS, CHINESE AND ALL THE OTHER MONKEYS CAN GO BACK TO THEIR TREES AND GO PICK BANANAS AND MANGOS

  • @panaistoumbiotis Why you hating bro, it takes all sorts to make a world. All sea farers should take pride in their ability to work with different people of different nationalities. Maybe this career is not for you if you cannot accept that.

  • "LOOP SCAVANGE" ?. is that the one with two different levels of wholes? I'm really sorry coz its my first time to see it here in net.. i've never seen it before thats why i'm curios of it coz i'm also a cadet engine and i'm really want to know that different kinds of engines, study and research on it..... thanks for the movie

  • beautiful this is where i want to work in..

  • That is a much simpler system then the RD's they have a loop scavenge but a short piston skirt.  On the exhaust side there is the most complicated rotary exhaust valve in the industry. I rather work on a true loop scavenge much less maintenance. I do like the B&W uni-flow system as well.

  • What happens to the parts? do they rebuild it or scrap it

  • @carmenlee87 it all depends - sometimes based on mfr quality, fuel quality, but usually you clean, measure and prep for it's next use, unless it's worn beyond limits.

  • ya, thomuz.. if i'm not mistaken.. there r 2 stages of scavenge trunk with 2 groups of scavenge valves.. under piston arrangement.. so cleaning the scavenge space is going to be very difficult.

  • tht pretty good lad.. we can start now

  • TNX FOR UR WONDER FUL RESPONSE..

  • i worked with this type of engine model Sulzer 7RLA56, since the engine has no exhaust v/v, the fuel injector can be easily placed at the center of cyl' head, only the scav eff bout 80-90%. the different between RTA, RTFlex(camless) is the piston skirt whereas the loop scavenging piston skirt design much longer for scavenging/exhaust port purposes. its simply to say that.. loop scavenging sys' is more easy for maintenance/service.

  • Sounds like your qualified to mop my deck! When do you want to start?

  • think u have to be a deck side,tats a boring,LAZY job .i hate tat,

  • Maybe boring, but topside is where I'd want to be if the ship sank! But I'd still choose the engine room, just because engines are awesome.

  • i like loop scavenging system...

  • I googled "loop scavenging system". Pretty cool stuff, never heard of it untill now.

  • ya,tats a loop scavenged system,pretty simple,but scaving system is complecated.
