Displacement pumps are those where the volume of the pump chamber is alternately
Increased to draw the liquid in from the suction pipe and then decreased to force the
Liquid out into the delivery pipe. Centrifugal pumps are those wherein an impeller
Rotating at high speed throws the liquid by centrifugal force from the center to the
Periphery of the impeller where the liquid is discharged through the delivery outlet.
Gear pump consists of two or more meshing gears (spur, single or double helical teeth)
Enclosed m a close-fitted housing. These are used extensively for pumping fuel oil,
Lubricating oil and hydraulic oil. When gears are unmeshed on the inlet side, a
Pressure drop occurs that helps the atmospheric pressure acting on the surface of the
Oil in the reservoir to force it up the pipe to fill the void, the oil is then
Transferred around the periphery of the pump housing. As the gear teeth mesh again on
The outlet side, they form a seal that prevents oil from backing up to the inlet, the
Oil in the void is then be forced out into the discharge line.
All vane pumps have a rotor driven within a ring (cam ring) by a drive shaft coupled to
A prime mover. A cylindrical rotor with sliding vanes, generally in radial slots,
Rotates within the ring. The center of the rotor is offset from the center of the ring.
In a simple vane pump, as the rotor turns, the vanes are forced outward against the
Inner surface of the cam ring by centrifugal force. This outward radial movement of the
Vanes and turning of the rotor causes the chamber between the vanes to increase as the
Vanes pass further away from the inlet port. This increase in volume results in a
Lowering of pressure until the atmospheric pressure is sufficient to force oil from the
Reservoir into the inlet chamber. Oil from the inlet is swept away by the vanes toward
The outlet port through a decreasing series of chambers until it is forced through the
Outlet port. A vane pump of balanced design has an elliptical cam ring so that two
Pumping chambers are formed. This pump is in hydraulically balance, since the two
Intake and two outlet ports are diametrically opposed to each other. Therefore the side
Loads exerted on the rotor cancel out, thereby increasing bearing lift and permitting
High operating pressure.
The jacket cooling system differs from that used on trunk piston engines only in the fact that LO cooler and the charge air cooler, which are seawater cooled, may be included in the same circuit.
An elevated expansion tank maintains a static head on the suction side of the system
And provides a convenient point for collecting vents, adding makeup feed, and adding
Chemicals to inhibit corrosion and formation of scale. Good venting is important: air
Carded with the coolant will enhance the potential for corrosion and can also
Accumulate at points to block coolant flow.
The jacket water circulating pumps are usually centrifugal pumps, and in larger plants
Are fitted in duplicate. Both pumps are motor driven in installations with low speed
Diesels, but medium and high speed engines are often fitted with an engine-driven pump,
Relaying on the motor driven pump for standby service.
The jacket water heater is used when the engine is idle. Maintaining the engine in a
Warm condition assists in minimizing corrosion.
Automation is likely to include alarms for low pressure, high temperature, and low
Level in the expansion tank; automatic changeover of the pumps; and thermostatic
Control of the three-way valve at the cooler.
While all trunk piston engines, as well as some crosshead engines, use oil to cool the
Pistons, a number of crosshead engines use a cooling water system separate from the
Jacket water system. The water reaches and leaves the piston through telescoping tubes
Enclosed within compartments inside the crankcase in order to avoid contamination of
The LO should a gland fail.
Because of the high temperature of water draining from the pistons and the resulting
Potential for flashing at the pump suction, some manufacturers recommend that deep well
Pumps immersed in the tank be used. Both pumps will be motor driven. Automation and
Other features will be similar to those described for the main engine jacket water
System.
