Introductory Message
Welcome to Engine watch 1!

The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of

the Schools Division of Sipalay City and DepEd Regional Office VI - Western
Visayas through the Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD).
This is developed to guide the learning facilitators (teachers, parents and
responsible adults) in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to
12 Basic Education Curriculum.

The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional materials

aimed to guide the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and
time using the contextualized resources in the community. This will also assist
the learners in acquiring the lifelong learning skills, knowledge and attitudes
for productivity and employment.
For learning facilitator:

The Engine Watch 1 Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the leaching-
learning activities specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency
(MELC) with minimal or no face-to-face encounter between you and learner.
This will be made available to the learners with the references/links to ease
the independent learning.

For the learner:

The Engine Watch 1 Activity Sheet is developed to help you

continue learning even if you are not in school. This learning material
provides you with meaningful and engaging activities for independent
learning. Being an active learner, carefully read and understand the
instructions then perform the activities and answer the assessments. This
will be returned to your facilitator on the agree agreed schedule.

Engine Watch 1 ACTIVITY SHEET No. 1

Carry out a watch routine appropriate to the duties of a rating forming
part of an engine-room watch (RFPEW)

I. Learning Competency with Code

Identify the terms used in machinery spaces and names of machinery and
equipment.
(TVL_MEW111RFPEW-IIIa-b-1)

II. Background Information for Learners

A ship might reasonably be divided into three distinct areas: the cargo-carrying
holds or tanks, the accommodation and the machinery space. Depending upon the
type each ship will assume varying proportions and functions.
Marine auxiliary machinery - various installations on board Ships are large,
complex vehicles which must be self-sustaining in their environment for long
periods with a high degree of reliability. A ship is the product of two main areas of
skill, those of the naval architect and the marine engineer.
Machinery, other than the main propulsion unit, is usually called 'auxiliary'
even though without some auxiliaries the main machinery would not operate for
long. The items considered are air compressors, heat exchangers, distillation
equipment, oil/water separators, sewage treatment plants and incinerators.

III. Activity Proper

Activity #1

Identify the terms used in machinery spaces and names of machinery and
equipment

1. Compressed Air Systems for various shipboard operations

The main aim of a compressor, as the name suggests, is to compress air
or any fluid in order to reduce its volume. Some of the main applications of
compressors onboard ships are main air compressor, deck air compressor,
AC compressor and refrigeration compressor. Failure to start or control air
compressor can be inconvenient, costly and can carry risks, which need to
be managed.

2. Marine Refrigeration System

Marine refrigeration systems are used aboard seagoing vessels and
offshore facilities and generally include cargo hold refrigeration, domestic
refrigeration services, and refrigerated containers. Refrigeration is defined as
a method of reducing the temperature of a system below that of the
surroundings and maintaining it at the lower temperature by continuously
extracting the heat from the system. The heat is continuously removed from
a system at lower temperature and transferred to the surroundings at a
higher temperature.

3. Coolers at sea- Shell and tube type coolers and plate type
coolers
Heat exchangers on board ship are mainly coolers where a hot liquid
is cooled by sea water. There are some instances where liquid heating is
required, such as heavy fuel oil heaters and sea water heaters for tank
cleaning. Although being heat exchangers, the main condenser for a steam
ship and the evaporator/distiller are dealt with separately.
 4. Distillation system- Production of distilled water for ships use - The
evaporation process
Distillation is the production of pure water from sea water by
evaporation and re-condensing. Distilled water is produced as a result of
evaporating sea water either by a boiling or a flash process. This evaporation
enables the reduction of the 32000 parts per million of dissolved solids in
sea water down to the one or two present in distilled water. The machine
used is called an 'evaporator', although the word 'distiller' is also used.....

5. Oily water separator and filter unit for 15 parts per million purity
Oil/water separators are used to ensure that ships do not discharge
oil when pumping out bilges, oil tanks or any oil-contaminated space.
International legislation relating to oil pollution is becoming more and more
stringent in the limits set for oil discharge.....

6. Sewage treatment on board- biological and chemical sewage treatment

plant
The discharge of untreated sewage in controlled or territorial waters is
usually banned by legislation. International legislation is in force to cover
any sewage discharges within specified distances from land. As a result, and
in order to meet certain standards all new ships have sewage treatment
plants installed.

7. Sludge and Bilge Management System onboard

A bilge pump is a water pump used to remove bilge water. ... Water
would again be sucked in through the bottom of the hull, and then pumped
onto the blaze. Yet another suggested use for a force pump was to dispel
water from a ship. The pump would be placed near the bottom of the hull so
as to suck water out of the ship.

8. Emergency Generator onboard ships

The role of the Emergency generator on the ship is to provide backup
power for the emergency loads in case the main generator fails or blackout
condition. It is part of the larger emergency machinery and systems installed
on large ships related to the engine room.
The emergency generator supplies electric power to some of the most
important instruments, devices, and machinery on a ship like; the
emergency pumps, emergency compressors, emergency lighting, emergency
alarms, navigation equipment, ventilation fans, and emergency steering
motor.

9. Emergency Steering Gear

A ship consists of electromechanical steering gear unit which steers
the vessel from one port to other. A situation can occur in which the remote
control operation may fail to work and there can be a sudden loss of steering
control from the bridge.

10. Incinerator for ships

Stricter legislation with regard to pollution of the sea, limits and, in
some instances, completely bans the discharge of untreated waste water,
sewage, waste oil and sludge. The ultimate situation of no discharge can be
achieved by the use of a suitable incinerator. When used in conjunction with
a sewage plant and with facilities for burning oil sludge, the incinerator
forms a complete waste disposal package.
