Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - THE ENGINE ROOM DOESN'T CARE IF YOU'RE READY.At sea, there's no contractor to call and no spare part two days out. When a bearing seizes, a generator trips, or a purifier fails at 3 a.m., the engineer standing in front of the machine is the response team - and the next sixty seconds decide whether the ship keeps making way.Most marine engineering references leave you stranded between two extremes: academic texts that are rigorous on theory and silent on the actual plant, or manufacturer manuals that explain one machine and nothing else. Neither trains you to reason through a real casualty when systems fail together and alarms conflict.MARINE ENGINEERING HANDBOOK is the single-volume fix. Sixteen chapters, built for both the classroom and the watch: naval architecture and propulsive power, diesel engine construction and performance, fuels and treatment, propellers and shafting, marine electrical generation and distribution, auxiliary machinery, automation and control, environmental compliance, and engine room watchkeeping and maintenance strategy. Every chapter pairs condensed theory with worked design cases, then closes with practice problems and full solved answers - so you're trained to calculate, not just recite.BUILT FOR: - Marine engineering cadets and students preparing for licensing exams and academy coursework- Watchkeeping and engineering officers who want one trustworthy reference for the whole plant, not just their station- Working marine engineers needing a fast, accurate refresher outside their specialty- Naval architects and technical superintendents who work alongside engine room operations- Anyone studying for marine engineer certification who needs worked numbers, not just theoryINSIDE, YOU'LL BUILD: - Command of the regulatory hierarchy - IMO conventions, flag State law, classification society rules, port State control - and how each one binds decisions in the engine room- The skill to read a general arrangement drawing and understand how a ship's machinery subsystems interact as one system- Fluency in resistance, propulsive power, and speed-power calculations that govern fuel consumption and voyage economics- Working knowledge of diesel propulsion, fuels, propellers, shafting, electrical systems, automation, and safe engine room practice- The instinct to catch your own errors before the plant does, trained through worked examples designed to be sanity-checked, not memorizedThis is a reference built to stay open on the desk through an entire career - not read once and shelved.Scroll up and add Marine Engineering Handbook to your library - the engine room won't wait for you to catch up.…
