Electrical Propulsion System
The conventional propulsion system of ships is efficient but requires high operating costs and increases marine pollution. Among all prospective alternate power sources for ships, electrical propulsion system is one…
High Voltage Systems On Ships
As the ship’s size and capacity increases, bigger machinery/ equipment are installed to ensure its operational efficiency; however high voltage is used only for few important machinery systems. Usually a…
Generator Safety
Generators onboard ships are the power suppliers for the entire vessel and are the primary sources of power to all running machinery systems, including the propulsion plant. For this reason,…
Electrical Fire Safety
The root cause of any electrical fire is the insulation of the circuit or wire. If the insulation is weak or damaged, it may lead to spark, electrical shock or…
Rocker arm
A rocker arm (in the context of an internal combustion engine of automotive, marine, motorcycle and reciprocating aviation types) is an oscillating lever that conveys radial movement from the cam lobe into linear movement at the poppet…
Engine Order Telegraph
In a sea going vessel, navigational officers control the ship’s navigation system from bridge and engineering officers control the propulsion plant from the engine room. Bridge is right on top…
Engine Valves
Shailesh Industries is well experienced in the production of engine valves and supplies complete range of designated products for customers throughout the globe. The extensive design and material expertise of…
Steering Gear in Ships
We are all familiar with the use of a rudder, which helps in turning a ship as and when required. Rudders are the principal system for the entire motion and control of…
Calibration
No instrument is intrinsically perfect. Calibration techniques are used to extend the usefulness of an instrument, correcting for offsets, nonlinearity, hysteresis and other undesired characteristics of an instrument. To calibrate an instrument…
OSCILLOSCOPE
There are broadly two types of oscilloscope named as analogue oscilloscope and digital oscilloscope where the difference between both is well ill-starred by their name itself. Analogue oscilloscope involves only analogue signal…
