Components for Central Cooling Water System
Central cooling water pumps
The pumps are to be of the centrifugal type.
Central cooling water ow ....see ‘List of capacities’
Pump head ...................................................2.5 bar
Delivery pressure ...............depends on location of
expansion tank
Test pressure .................... according to class rules
Working temperature ..................................... 80 °C
Design temperature ..................................... 00 °C
The ow capacity is to be within a tolerance of 0%
to +0%.
The list of capacities covers the main engine only.
The differential pressure provided by the pumps
is to be determined on the basis of the total actual
pressure drop across the cooling water system.
Central cooling water thermostatic valve
The low temperature cooling system is to be
equipped with a threeway valve, mounted as a
mixing valve, which bypasses all or part of the
fresh water around the central cooler.
The sensor is to be located at the outlet pipe from
the thermostatic valve and is set so as to keep a
temperature level of minimum 0 °C.
Seawater cooling pumps
The pumps are to be of the centrifugal type.
Seawater ow ...................... see ‘List of capacities’
Pump head ...................................................2.5 bar
Test pressure .................... according to class rules
Working temperature, normal .....................032 °C
Working temperature .................... maximum 50 °C
The capacity is to be within a tolerance of 0% to
+0%.
The differential pressure of the pumps is to be de-
termined on the basis of the total actual pressure
drop across the cooling water system.
Central cooler
The cooler is to be of the shell and tube or plate
heat exchanger type, made of seawater resistant
material.
Heat dissipation ......................see ‘List of capacities’
Central cooling water ow ......see ‘List of capacities’
Central cooling water temperature, outlet ......... 36 °C
Pressure drop on central cooling side ....max. 0.2 bar
Seawater ow .........................see ‘List of capacities’
Seawater temperature, inlet ............................. 32 °C
Pressure drop on
seawater side ................................ maximum 0.2 bar
The pressure drop may be larger, depending on
the actual cooler design.
The heat dissipation and the seawater ow gures
are based on MCR output at tropical conditions,
i.e. a seawater temperature of 32 °C and an ambi-
ent air temperature of 45 °C.
Overload running at tropical conditions will slightly
increase the temperature level in the cooling sys-
tem, and will also slightly inuence the engine
performance.
