Jacket Cooling Water Temperature Control
When using a normal freshwater generator of the
singleeffect vacuum evaporator type, the fresh-
water production - based on the available jacket
cooling water heat Qjw - may, for guidance, be
estimated as 0.03 t/24h per 1 kW heat, i.e.:
M
fw
= 0.03 x Qjw t/24h 15%/0% [3]
where
M
fw
is the freshwater production in tons per 24
hours
and
Q
jw
is to be stated in kW
If necessary, all the actually available jacket cool-
ing water heat may be used provided that a spe-
cial temperature control system ensures that the
Valve A: ensures that T
jw
< 80° C
Valve B: ensures that T
jw
> 80 – 5° C = 75° C
Valve B and the corresponding bypass may be omitted if, for example, the freshwater generator is equipped with an automatic
start/stop function for too low jacket cooling water temperature
If necessary, all the actually available jacket cooling water heat may be utilised provided that a special temperature control system
ensures that the jacket cooling water temperature at the outlet from the engine does not fall below a certain level

jacket cooling water temperature at the outlet from
the engine does not fall below a certain level. Such
a temperature control system may consist, e.g.,
of a special bypass pipe installed in the jacket
cooling water system, see Fig. 6.04.05, or a spe-
cial builtin temperature control in the freshwater
generator, e.g., an automatic start/stop function, or
similar.
If such a special temperature control is not ap-
plied, we recommend limiting the heat utilised to
maximum 50% of the heat actually available at
specified MCR, and only using the freshwater gen-
erator at engine loads above 50%. Considering the
cooler margin of 10% and the minus tolerance of
15%, this heat corresponds to 50 x(1.000.15)x0.9
= 38% of the jacket water cooler capacity Q
