The distance between the hydrostatic head and the critical point at the exhaust elbow is only 216 mm. This means
that in a tilted position of 30 degrees you already face the highest risk of sea water sloshing into the combustion
chamber.

Tilted position 45 degrees - Fig. 5.7.3.2-4
The water level is now at the same height as the critical point at the exhaust elbow. If the ship is sailed in a tilted
position of 45 degrees with an installation like this, the ingress of cooling water into the combustion chamber is
inevitable. Irreparable damages are pre-programmed.
