Marine Engineer Guide Questionnaire 001

1. A system that organizes schedules and coordinates all the maintenance activities of the vessel. = Planned Maintenance System
2. The temperature of the steam flow to the saltwater feed heater, in a flash type evaporator can be manipulated by a/an = attemporator in the steam supply piping.
3. In a two-stage flash-type evaporator, excess brine in the first stage automatically passes = into the second stage flash chamber.
4. The Continuous Machinery Survey (CMS) is a method for systematically, continuously and sequentially surveying machinery and equipment within a _________. = 5-year period
5. The objectives of feed water treatment and chemical control can be listed as follows except = Reduction of cost for operation or maintenance
6. The vacuum maintained in the salt water feed heater shell of a flash-type evaporator is generally accomplished = by an external line from the first stage via a fixed orifice
7. Excessive lube oil consumption in a reciprocating air compressor is an indication of = worn or broken piston rings.
8. Is the calculated approximation of a result, which is usable even if input data may be incomplete? = Estimation
9. Slipping drive car belts on a ship service air compressor is a  probable symptom of = a failed unloader.
10. Repair and maintenance work shall be carried out in accordance with the following: = A) ISM Code = B) Plant maker’s manuals = C) Ship Operating Instruction
11. If an electric motor driven air compressor fails to start,  it may be due to a = tripped overload relay.
12. Fluctuating pressures and temperatures in an evaporator will = increase the probability of priming
13. The purpose of the six-way valve used in an  electro-hydraulic steering system is to passport= redirect hydraulic fluid flow when changing over pumps.
14. An organization that establish and apply technical standards in relation to the design and construction of marine related facilities = Classification Society.
15. It is an independent and thorough verification of actual condition of a vessel. = Condition Assessment Program
16. In an Aux. Diesel Engine Distribution System, What is the Set Point of an Over Current Protection alarm function? = 100 – 150 %.
17. Boilers and thermal oil heaters are to be surveyed twice in every six-year period.  The periodicity of the boiler survey is normally 3 years. = False
18. The programme has a good potential for reducing inspection costs for class renewal and can optimize the scheduling of maintenance routines. Tests and inspections may be carried out by the crew or service engineers in the absence of the surveyor.= Continues Surveys Procedure
19. Why is it that a vast majority of the ship have an alternating current in preference to Direct current system. =AC is can effectively be converted into rotary mechanical power in simple and efficient induction motors. = AC offers a higher power/weight ratio for the generation, distribution and utilisation of electricity. = An AC network is cheaper to install and operate than a DC system.
20. Its function is to store electric charge. It can also be used together with resistors in a timing circuit. It can also be used as a filter to block DC signals and pass AC signals. = Capacitors.
21. The ____________ is the day and the month given in the certificate of class which corresponds to the expiry date of the certificate. = Anniversary date
22. A ___________ is the examination of the outside of the ship's hull and related items. This examination may be carried out with the ship either in dry dock (or on a slipway) or afloat. = Renewal Survey.
