Boiler mountings are a set of safety device installed for the safe operation of a boiler. There are seven main mountings on a boiler shell; safety valve, steam stop valve, vent valve, pressure gauge, water level indicator, feed check valve and fusible plug. These equipment save the boiler from damage due to extreme pressure, steam

What is gear pump? A gear pump is a type of positive displacement constant delivery rotary pump. What it means is that it generate a constant amount It converts mechanical energy into fluid energy creating void suction with the help of its gear meshing. The space left between these gear meshing suck in the high

Fuel pump and injector directly affects the performance of a marine diesel engine. The quality of combustion in an engine depends on the working of a fuel injector; which leading to proper automation and optimum injection timing. Atomization is the process of breaking fuel in very small particles so that it mix well with the

Proper ignition and combustion of fuel is the key to efficient marine engine. With use of residual fuel for ignition other less important factors become critical; such as the delay period between the fuel injection and ignition. With most of the commercial ships running on residual fuel it’s obvious to ask; How the use of
