Design of Marine Machinery Systems JEE523
Introduction
This unit gives students an understanding of the functional purpose of the machinery systems used on board a variety of ships. This knowledge can then be applied to obtaining effective engineering design solutions for these systems, so that they can meet their functional purposes within national and international statutory and regulatory frameworks.

Learning Outcomes
- Explain the design features and practical constraints of marine machinery system and components.
- Analyse fluid and air flows in duct and pipe systems to determine appropriate pump/fan and cooler duties.
- Critically select and specify the appropriate equipment for marine power plant with due regard to reliability and maintainability.
- Design ship’s machinery, piping, and systems, with due consideration to classification and statutory regulations.
- Apply considerations of occupational health and safety and environmental protection issues to the design of marine machinery systems.
