In a COGES system gensets are driven by gas and steam turbines. Waste heat recovery boilers exploit the gas turbine exhaust and produce superheated steam (at around 30 bar) for the steam turbine genset.

According to The Motor Ship December 2002 This wide-beam/shallow-draught vessel was designed for operation in the very sensitive waters of the Caribbean archipelago...

A combustible material is something that can combust (burn) in air.

An instrument for measuring the contents of hydrocarbon gas/air mixtures, usually showing the result as a percentage of the lower flammable limit.

Capable of being ignited easily and burnt.

Combustion is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.

NOx suppression technique developed by Wärtsilä, whereby combustion air is humidified before entering the engine cylinder.

A combustion chamber is part of an internal combustion engine in which the fuel/air mix is burned.

Similar to a jet engine. A result of combustion is expanding gases that drive turbine blades connected to a generator.

View without obstructions which would interfere with the navigator ability to perform all immediate tasks.

Ships operating primarily beyond 3 nautical miles from the nearest land are encouraged to install and use comminuters to grind food wastes to a particle sizes capable of passing through a screen with openings no larger than 25 milimeters.

To bring a facility or machine into service, to ensure that all components function as designed and intended.

Article shipped. For dangerous and hazardous cargo, the correct commodity identification is critical.

A fuel supply system in which two or more high-pressure pumps supply a common manifold or rail. Timing valves determine the timing and extent of fuel delivery to the cylinder injectors.

Workstation for operation and control of the equipment for distress/safety communication and public correspondence communication.

Community wind projects are locally owned by farmers, investors, businesses, schools, utilities, or other public or private entities who utilize wind energy to support and reduce energy costs to the local community.

The switching action which transfers the current from one arm of a bridge to the next one, that is to conduct.

A commutator is a rotary electrical switch in certain types of electric motors and electrical generators that periodically reverses the current direction between the rotor and the external circuit.

A compact linear Fresnel reflector is a specific type of linear Fresnel reflector technology.

A machine used onboard to reduce the volume of garbage produced on a ship by compacting it under pressure. Compactors are mainly used aboard passenger ships.
