2 CHAPTER TWO – TRAINING EXPERIENCE
2.1 INDUSTRIAL SAFETY
On the first day that we were attached to the CDL for industrial training, we participated to a
safety program conducted by the supervisor of the safety section on Colombo Dockyard. The
objective of this safety program is to make the newly appointed trainees get familiarized with the
industrial environment of the Colombo Dockyard and the hazards which can be occurred in the
dockyard. The important factors which I learnt from the safety program are as follows. Safety is
the very essential subject in the engineering field especially in mechanical engineering field.
Every employee should know the safety in correct way otherwise his work may be accident to
other persons. When industries develop the accidents also increase then safety work is developed
to prevent the accidents. All trainees, workers, engineers and others joint to Colombo Dockyard
Limited should attend to safety lecture before work. Safety division gives more details about
equipment safety methods and behaviors in yard. Safety equipment used in the Dockyard can be
classified in to main two groups. Normal (essential) equipment – Safety helmet, Safety belt,
Safety shoes, Overall and Life jacket Special equipment–Head shield, Ear plug, Hand shield,
Ear mop, Grinding goggle, Hand gloves, Cutting goggle, Dust mask, Welding goggle, Respirator
and etc. When we doing work in industrial we must considered safety about main three parts.
 Safety of our self
 Safety of other person
 Safety of environment
In the Dockyard safety instructions are noticed in every workshop and every hazardous place.
And also when we enter to the dockyard from the gate, the safety instructions are noticed in the
wall to get every visitor informed about safety. The safety instructions for workers and the
notices are as follows.
 Wear suitable close Fitting clothing
 Keep long hair tucked under a hat
 Wash immediately after contact with harmful substances
 Obey special instructions And Notices
 Wear protective spectacles or goggles when grinding, welding or in a dusty atmosphere
 Wear a safety helmet when other are working above
 Where protective footwear, preferably with protective toe caps
 Report defective or damaged equipment
 Wear ear defenders in specified areas
 Wear correct industrial gloves when handling certain materials
19
 Remove finger-Rings, Identity bracelets and wrist watches Etc. When working on deck in
holds or with Machinery.
Main entry chart display on the ship and it also has a color code.
 Green - man entry hot work approved.
 Blue - man entry no hot work.
 Red - no man entry (dangerous
Gas free certificate should be on the entrance before entering to the tank. This issue for 24 hours
and it include the date also. The hot work permits valid 5 days only. Then we should apply new
permit. In yard area Gas lines marked with various colors. Because it easy to identify separately.

2.2.4 FLANGES
Pipes Flanges used for joint two pipes in together by using nuts and bolts. They are
components of the piping system of the ship two flanges are coupled with a packaging seal and
they pressure tightened by the use of bolts and nuts. The inner diameter of the pipe is jointed to
the flange by welding methods. The thickness of the flanged and no of the holes is varied. Flange
have various kinds in type and shape and their material too is diversified (low carbon steel, low
alloy steel, stain less steel, high alloy steel, nonferrous steel) in accordance with the type of fluid
and service environment. The main parameters of selecting flange is,
 Inside and outside diameter of flange
 Relevant pressure of flange
 Material of flange

2.2.4.1 WELDING NECK
This flange is circumferentially welded in to the system at its neck which means that the
integrity of but welding area can be easily examined by radiography. The bores of both pipe and
flange match, which reduces turbulence are erosion inside the pipeline. The weld neck is
therefore favored in critical application.

2.2.6 PIPE BENDING
This Process most important thing in ship building. Engines, Purifiers, lubrication oil
systems are connected in together by using pipes, Every Pipe line has bending points.
Therefore this process most important in ship building.
There are three types of pipe bending methods.
 Hand bending
 Hydraulic bending
2.2.6.1 HAND BENDING
This method used for bend small thickness (T) pipes. (2mm > T).
Figure 16 - Hand Pipe Bending Procedure
28
Procedure –:
1. Firstly take the pipe and marked the bending points by using measuring tape and maker
pen.
2. Then identified bending angle of pipe and bend another steel wire into that required
angle.
3. Then mount pipe on pipe bending vice and bend by hand as Figure 16
4. Then check the angle and correct if angle was wrong.

2.2.7 CENTRIFUGAL PURIFIER
2.2.7.1 INTRODUCTION
The Centrifugal purifier is most important thing in ship because water and impurities of
lubrication oil and fuel separated by this system.
If same water content have fuel, engine is not working properly because complete combustion of
inside of cylinder not happen .Therefore must be remove water from fuel. That is the thing of oil
water separate system most important in any ship.
Lubrication oil also have some water content, therefor must separate oil from water. Otherwise
lubrication oil go thought the engine and water content of oil will be vapor. Because when
engine is working it produce high temperature. It can be reduce efficiency of the engine.
2.2.7.2 THEORY
The main part of centrifugal purifier is bowl. It rotates with high angular speed (10500 rpm-
11500rpm). Inside of bowl contains disk stack (Figure 19).
Figure 19 - Diagram of Purifier
30
Oil flows in to bowl from oil inlet. Oil flows to bottom of bowl. Then oil also rotates with bowl.
Then oil takes angular speed of bowl. Result of it, the centrifugal force is acting on oil. Result of
it oil flows up through holes of discs between disc stack.
Density of water and impurities higher than oil. Therefore centrifugal force of water higher than
oil. Result of it oil and water separation is beginning. Oil collected in to middle of bowl and
water and impurities collected in to corner of bowl.
Procedure – Fixed bowl into purifier system
 Firstly closed all pipe connections (oil inlet, oil outlet and water in and out lines, power
lines) of the purifying system.
 Then remove the water outlet line by removing upper nut.
Figure 20 - Centrifugal Purifier System
 Then remove upper part of purifier by dismounting bolts of upper part.
 Then fixed bowl in to the system as figure 21.
Figure 22-Before mount bowl in to System Figure 21 - After Mount Bowl in to System
31
 Then checked rotating motion of the fixed bowl by hand.
 Then fixed top part of purifier, and connected oil inlet line, oil outlet line, water inlet and
out let lines, pressure sensors and temperature sensors.
 Then connected sensor in to multi-monitor.
 Then started the system and checked oil inlet and outlet pressure, oil temperature and
rotating speed of bowl
Oil inlet pressure – 1.01 bar
Oil outlet pressure – 1.5 bar
Temperature of oil inlet – (85 – 95) Celsius
Rotating speed of bowl – (10500-11000) rpm
Amp of motor – 14.9 A
2.2.7.3 COUPLING ALIGNMENT
Coupling alignment is a static condition observed at the bearings supporting the rotating shafts.
Accuracy of the alignment is most important thing in machine installation procedure.
The amount of coupling misalignment in a machine depends upon several factors such as the
stiffness of the shafts, the amount of weight between overhanging supports, the bearing design
and the distance between the supports.
Figure 23 - Coupling Alignment
Radial misalignment checking procedure
 Dial indicator was set on the rim of a flange.
 Dial indicator was rotated to top position (12:00 position).
 Dial indicator scale was adjusted to zero value.
 Gauge was rotated to port side.

2.3 HULL CONSTRUCTION
2.3.1 INTRODUCTION
In hull construction division mainly focus on plate cutting, plate forming and welding.
Therefore hull construction shop has been divided in to several sections. They are,
 Loft section – Produce the template from the wood by using drawings
 Forming – In this section form steel plates at required size and shape by using
template

2.3.4 CNC PLASMA CUTTING MACHINE
The hull construction workshop consists of several machines to cut and bend the plates to
the required shapes. There I studied about the CNC plasma cutting machine and observed hoe the
plates are being marked and cut by the CNC plasma cutter. Plasma beam (ionized gas) is used to
cut ferrous and non- ferrous material. Normally 20,000-23,000 Centigrade are produce for
oxygen as a plasma gas. Cutting nozzle will be cooled by water. Plasma arc cutting is relatively
speeding and cutting kerf is small and finishing are higher than CNC gas cutting and other
cutting process inside the workshop.
Figure 27 -CNC Plasma Cutting Machine
The CNC plasma cutting machine is a computerized machine, where we can give the drawing of
the plate we need to be cut. The machine can read the drawing and identify the given dimensions
and borders. The drawings can be sent to the machine from the design office trough
communication cables. The drawings should be filled with the maximum number of parts to be
cut from the plate. Then the wastage of the metal can be reduced. This machine has a sensor to
identify the edges of the plate. Once the plate kept on the bed, the edges should be given to the
machine. Then the machine will identify the edges with the sensor. So the machine will identify
the size of the plate.
By this machine, we can mark the plates too. There is a marking torch in this machine and for
marking Zinc powder is used. The torch consists of LP gas line, Oxygen line and Zinc powder
line. The Zinc powder will be melt and draw the line. The main quality of this Zinc powder
marking is that it will not be erased with oils, grease, chemicals and any liquids. The marking
speed of the machine is 15000mm/min. The cutter of the machine is a plasma cutter. So the
finishing of the cutting edges is better than a gas cutter. There is a cooling line in the nozzle to
36
cool the nozzle. The thickness range of the plates can be cut is 4.5mm to 40mm. There are three
types of nozzles according to the thickness ranges
Figure 28 - CNC Plasma Cutter Nozzle
Size of the nozzle Plate thickness Current (A)
1.7R 4.5mm-12mm 140A
2.3R 13mm-22mm 260A
2.9R 23mm-40mm 400A
Table 5 - Nozzle types
All the nozzles consist of an electrode. It is common for all nozzles. The cutting speed of the
machine will be varied with the thickness of the plates. The machine travelling speed is
2700mm/min. this machine also consists of safety sensors and dust removals
 Normally 17,000-23,000 Centigrade produce the plasma cutting process
 Zn powder and oxygen + LPG mixture are used to marking process ( Marking speed
15000 mm/min )
 O2 and air minimum pressure is 4 bars
 For bevel cutting, nozzle 2.9R should be used.

2.3.5 PUG CUTTER MACHINE
PUG cutter machine is most useful machine in hull construction. Any cutting shape can
be done by this machine. Such as single bevel and double bevel cut can be produce by this
machine.
Figure 30 - PUG Cutter Machine
38
Figure 31 - Bevel Types
PUG cutter machine helps to reduce cost of production and increase efficiency. It is design for
heavy duty jobs and also for precision jobs. It works on single phase supply and is operated by
1/30 HP. AC Power supply is 230 v 50 Hz.
Machine is designed to operate or magnetic effect in the roller shaft of gear box. Movement of
gas cutting nozzle is directly linked with magnetic roller shaft which results in fine cutting of
metal.
PUG cutter machine can adjust the speed of machine according to thickness of cutting metal.
This machine can be moved in the forward and reverse direction. Regulator is used to change the
speed of cutter. For straight line cutting machine runs on an aluminum track and for circle
cutting attachment will also supplied
This machine is suitable for cutting metal sheets and plates. Oxygen and acetylene gases used in
this machine. Oxygen gas used for cutting and acetylene gas used for increase heat.
At cutting operation firstly open the acetylene valve and after open oxygen valve. At end of
working firstly close the acetylene valve and then closed the oxygen valve.
Reason is acetylene is a very dangerous and it can be spread and fire easily.
Red line – Acetylene gas
Blue line – Oxygen gas
Maximum Thickness – 150mm
Speed – 150 – 1000 mm/min
Temperature – 600 – 800 Celsius

2.3.6 METAL ACTIVE GAS ARC WELDING
Principle of the process – The process melts and fuses metal using the intense heat generated by
an electric arc between the metals to be jointed and a filler wire. The wire is progressively melted
as some speed at which it is being feed by the wire feeder. Both arc and weld pool protected
against atmospheric contamination by shielding gas.
Shielded gas – Carbon dioxide

2.3.8 BENDING PROCESS
There are three types of bending processes in hull construction.
They are,
 Rolling
 Pressing
 Line heating
2.3.8.1 ROLLING
Rolling is the metal forming process in which metal is passes through one or more pairs
of rolls to reduce the thickness and to make constant thickness of plate. Produced curve shape of
metal plate by this process.
Maximum thickness – 25mm
Maximum Pressure – 2.5bar
15Kw, Current – 400v
Figure 39 - Bending Machine
Figure 40 – Forming by rolling machine
42
2.3.8.2 PRESSING
Steel plates also bend by using press machine. Before apply rolling machine steel plates
were pre bend by using pressing. They used this machine when steel plates were bending along
the straight line.
Figure 41 - Steel Plate Bend by Pressing
Figure 42 - Pressing machine
43
2.3.8.3 LINE HEATING
Rolling and pressing machines can make single or double axis shapes only, but in line
heating process can be made three axis shapes. Therefore it is most important process in ship
building, but it is slow process.
Line heating theory – Heating creates a thermal stress in a very small region. Due to rise in
temperature the elastic limit of the heat affected region will decrease.
As the heat source travels the adjacent material even if not cooled with water remains cool
enough to resist the thermally created stress. So heated surface swells beyond its elastic limit and
therefore after cooling retains some minute deformation. During the cooling process bulge side
surface contract s more than other side resulting in angular distortion and some amount of overall
shrinkage.
Line Heating Procedure –
1. Marked heating lines according to the shape of the bending.
2. Then apply heat by using LP gas torch along the lines
3. Then apply the fresh water in to heated areas
4. Heating and watering process should be done until obtain the shape of template
5. For reduce the bend shape heat should be applied to the bend side of the plate and apply
water
Apply Heat
Swelling of plate
After apply water
Figure 43 - Line heating procedure
44
Reasonof used LP gas in line heating process –
 LP gas cost is lower than acetylene
 Mild steel grain structure is change in 725 Celsius but LP gas
maximum temperature is 600 Celsius. therefore LP gas not
damaged grain structure of the material.
 Acetylene will be change mechanical properties of mild steel
45
2.4 HULL TREATMENT
2.4.1 INTRODUCTION
In hull treatment division mainly focus on blasting and painting to the new construction
and hull treatment to ships which are docked to repair their hull
New building ships units are send to blasting chamber to blasting process, it is done by unit
because the shops are built like that way and assembled in a dry dock.
2.4.2 LIST OF WORK CARRIED OUT
 Learned about blasting procedure.
 Referred about paints
 Learned about profile test, dust test, salt test.
 Learned about hull treatment procedure for new construction ship.
 Learned about hull treatment procedure for dry docking ships.
 Learned ballast tank cleaning procedure.
2.4.3 SURFACE PREPARATION
Before applying any coatings surface should be cleaned. Oil, grease, salt, rust, barnacles,
old paints and weld spatters should be removed. To remove that surface most effective way is
blasting
2.4.4 BLASTING
Blasting is a system to clean a metal surface in deferent levels.
Figure 44 - Blasting machine
46
This cleaning level depends on the condition of the metal plate. There are four grades for blast
cleaning.
 SA 1 - Light blast cleaning to remove rust and paint.
 SA 2 - Loosely adhering, rust and old paint coatings are removed from steel.30% of paint
shadow can remain.
 SA 2.5 - Very thorough blast cleaning to achieve near white metal.5% of Paint shadow
can remain.
 SA 3 – Blast cleaning to visually clean steel. 100% of paint shadow should remove.
Figure 45 - Blasting
Types of Blasting
 Spot blasting – only the place that corrosion has occurred.
 Sweep blasting – blasting is done across the surface, abrasive particle size is important.
Light sweeping – clean the surface of contaminations, not for heavy corrosion or
loose coatings.
Heavy sweeping – old coatings are removed.
Sweeping of shop primers – in new building it is necessary to remove the shop
primer coating.
 Wet blasting (Slurry blasting) – Used abrasive , High pressure water and air
 Hydro - blasting – high pressure 680 – 1700 bar, ultrahigh pressure above 1700bar.
47
2.4.5 PROFILE TEST
After blasting the surface will be rough. This roughness is very important to apply the
paint. But this roughness should be in a range. This range should be measure. For measure this
surface profile we can use replica type and spring micrometer.
Procedure
1. Choose a suitable replica tape according to profile.
2. Remove the backing and paste the replica tape on the surface.
3. Rub burnishing tool over the round cut – out portion of replica tape using moderate film
pressure.
4. Remove replica tape and place it on spring micrometer.
This value should be between 30 and 75 microns.
Figure 46 - Profile testing procedure
2.4.6 DUST TEST
A dust tape test allows assessment of the quantity and size of dust particles on surface
prepared for painting. Dust on blast cleaned surfaces can reduce coating adhesion and lead to
coating failure.
Procedure
1. Past the dust tape on the surface. (Step 1 )
2. Pressurize the tape manually or with a roller.
3. Then remove the tape from surface and paste it on transparent paper.
4. Compare the tape with the dust quality rating specimens. (Step 2,3)
48
Figure 47 - Dust test procedure
2.4.7 SALT TEST
Salt test (or Chloride test) is done to obtain the chloride iron concentration on the plate
which is after the SA 2.5 or SA 3 Standard steel grid blasting.
For this test we use bresle patch kit and conductivity meter.
Procedure
1. Remove the bresle patch from the packet and paste it on the surface.
Figure 48 - Bresle patch
2. Then firmly press it on the surface to seal on the surface.
3. Vacuum the air inside the bresle patch using syringe.
4. Fill the calibration liquid in to the bresle patch using syringe at an angle of 30˚

 Then remove stuffing box and cleaned it
54
2.5.5 PISTON RINGS
Piston rings are an important part of the engine yet they tend to be neglected because they
are consumable item.
Function of piston rings:
 Provide a seal to the combustion chamber to prevent gases and combustion products
passing the piston.
 Control the lubricating oil.
 Conduct heat away from the piston to the liner.
Types of rings:
 Compression rings – The compression rings provide sealing above the piston and prevents
the gas leakage from the combustion side. The compression rings are located in the top
grooves of the piston.
 Intermediate Ring - The oil in controlled by shearing the layer of the oil left by oil ring,
thus providing the top compression rings enough lubrication. Moreover, it also provides help
to the top compression ring in sealing.
 Scraper or oil control rings – Distributes oil on the cylinder liner preventing the oil passing
upwards in to the combustion chamber.
Figure 56 - piston ring clearance
Figure 57 - Piston rings
55
2.5.6 TURBOCHARGERS
A turbocharger is a turbine- driven forced induction device that increases an internal
combustion engine’s efficiency and power output by forcing extra air in to the combustion
chamber.
The exhaust gas of engine rotates turbine of turbocharger. That turbine fixed with another
compressor by using shaft. That compressor sucks atmospheric air (Scavenge air) and
compressed it. The compressed air temperature will be increased during the compression.
Therefore that air cooled in to 45℃by using coolers. Then that compressed air flow to
combustion chamber of piston
Labyrinth Seal:
Labyrinth Seal are fitted to the shaft and casing to prevent the leakage of exhaust
gas in to the turbine and bearing, or to prevent oil being drown in the compressor.

2.6.3 GAS LINE MAINTENANCE SECTION
Gas line maintenance section is a most important section in the plant shop. This section
maintain and repair all the gas line requirement such as gas manifolds, gas regulators, stop
valves, flash back arresters and gas lines. In Colombo dockyard there is a main central point for
o2 and co2 and two central points for acetylene. From these central points all the gases are
supplied through the dockyard by using pressurized gas lines.
 Oxygen system – in the main gas central point there are two oxygen tanks which has
32000 litter and 10000 litter capacities. It is stored in tanks at -900 Celsius as liquid form.
Bu using vaporizer liquid oxygen converts into oxygen gas and sent through the yard at 8
bar pressure in blue color pipe.
 Carbon dioxide system – In the main gas central there are two 10000 litter capacity
tanks. Carbon dioxide also stored at -190 Celsius as a liquid. Same as the O2 line, liquid
CO2 converts into gas CO2 and send at 5 bar pressure in black color pipes.
58
 Acetylene system– There are two acetylene gas points. But acetylene (C2H2) are stored
in gas bottles. There are two – 80 bottles packages in one central point. C2H2 send
through the pipe lines at 1.5bar pressure in red color pipe lines. 23 flash back arrestors are
fitted in this pipe system.
2.6.4 GAS REGULATORS
There are mainly two types of gas regulators in the dockyard. The oxygen and acetylene
lines are use same types of gas regulators. The main difference between these two regulators is
there a filter in carbon dioxide regulator. The main purpose of regulator is to control the gas
pressure according to the requirement. In acetylene regulator is left hand thread and oxygen
regulator is right hand thread
Figure 62 - Gas regulators
2.6.5 FLASH BACK ARRESTER
When a back fire in the acetylene line may cause a huge damage to the yard and humans.
So if a back fire comes back fire arrestors come in to action and it will be prevent these back
fires. The flash back arrestor blocks the fire in gas lines. There are 23 flash back arrestors in yard
acetylene line. If a back fire enters to the flash back arrestor, the Teflon cone will melt and spring
tension will close gas line by acting as a valve.

2.7.5 NON POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT PUMPS
Non-positive displacement pumps are basically used for low pressure applications and are
designed to work for a maximum pressure of 18 to 20 bar. Efficiency peaks at best-efficiency-
point. At higher or lower pressures, efficiency decreases. Efficiency this type pumps decreases
with increasing viscosity due to frictional losses inside the pump. Flow varies with changing
pressure in a non-positive displacement pump.
 Centrifugal pump
Figure 73 - Vane type pump
2.7.6 ENGINE HEADS
Engine Head is the most important part of an Internal Combustion engine.it was bolted to the top
of the cylinder block, in which the piston reciprocate inside the cylinder. This joint is sealed by
a head gasket. It closes the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber.
Cylinder head contains lot of moving parts.
They are: - Valves, injector nozzles, air starter valve, cooling system lines. Rocker arm (four
stroke engine)
66
2.7.7 HEAT EXCHANGERS
Marine heat exchangers are no different than non-marine heat exchangers except for the
simple fact that they are found a board ships.
Heat exchangers can be used for a wide variety of uses.as the name implies. These can be
used for heating as well as cooling. The two primary types of marine heat exchangers used board
vessels in maritime industry.
2.7.7.1 PLATE TYPE
Sets of multiple parallel plates that are compressed to form main cool unit.it has a small
foot print plates placed next to each other. They create passage ways to fluid to flow
between plates. Gaskets are placed around edge of each plate in order to prevent mixing
of two fluid
Figure 74 - Plates with Gaskets
Figure 75 - Plate type heat exchanger
67
2.7.7.2 SHELL AND TUBE
Consist of tube bundle which is placed inside lager shell. It is required twice the float
print of heat exchanger in order to perform maintenance. Depending on amount of
cooling needed. Shell and tube heat exchangers can be built in single or double pass
configuration. Number of pass refers to number of times fluid in shell passes by fluid in
tubes.This achieved by placing baffles in shell that allow for fluid to be directed.
Figure 76 - Shell and tube heat exchanger
Gasket materials -: Water – Rubber
Lubrication oil – Elite
Steam – Steam joint
Uses – heat exchangers on board vessels are used in many systems. Systems are lubrication oil,
jacket water, Steam and main sea water
2.7.8 PISTONS
Piston is the main component of engine. It is the moving component that is contained by
a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. In an engine, its purpose is to transfer force from
expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod in engine.
There are two types of pistons in industry
1. Trunk piston
2. Crosshead piston
68
2.7.8.1 TRUNK PISTONE
The piston is directly attached to the connecting rod by a gudgeon pin. Side thrust is absorbed by
extended skirts on piston.
The main advantage of this type engine is reduced engine height.
This type used for high speed engines
Figure 77 - Trunk piston
2.7.8.2 CROSS HEAD PISTON
In cross head piston, piston rod is bolted to the piston and passes through a stuffing box mounted
in the diaphragm plate. The foot of the piston rod is bolted to the crosshead pin. The top of the
connecting road swing about the crosshead pin, as the downward load from the expanding gas
applies a turning force to the crank shaft.
Figure 78 - Cross head piston
69
2.7.9 PROCEDURE OF DISMANTLING PISTON
1. Firstly dismantled engine head from engine
2. Then piston moved to bottom dead center and dismantled piston rod from cross head and
dismantled stuffing box from stuffing box flange.
3. Then piston moved to top dead center.
4. Then fixed chain blocks in to lifting grooves of piston and lift piston up with stuffing
box.
5. Then piston lifted up from engine.
6. Then taken but clearance of piston rings and remove rings by using piston ring expander.
7. Then removed piston rod from piston skirt.
Figure 79 - Dismantled piston rod
8. Then applied die penetration test in to piston skirt for check cracks on piston skirt.
9. After that cleaned all parts of piston including stuffing box and re assembled all the parts
in together.
2.7.10 STUFFING BOX
Stuffing box is the seal prevented leaking oil from the crankcase being carried upwards,
or used cylinder oil contaminated from products of combustion being carried downwards. It is
also highly undesirable to allow the pressurized air in the scavenge space to leak into the
crankcase. The stuffing box casing which can be split vertically, as shown in the photo, contains
a series of scraper rings and sealing rings which are each made up of three or four segments. On
the outside of each set of segments is a garter spring which provides the tension to hold the ring
segments against the piston rod. There is a clearance between each segment to allow for wear.
70
The rings are either bronze or can comprise of replaceable cast iron lamella fitted into a steel
backing ring.
Figure 80 - Stuffing box inside
Procedure-
1. Remove the bolts of stuffing box case
2. Using filler gauge measured the vertical clearance of the rings and clearance of ring
segments.
3. Then measured but clearance by using vernier caliper.
4. Remove the springs of the rings and remove ring parts.
Figure 81 - Stuffing box ring
5. Then clean the all rings, springs and stuffing box case
6. Then fixed again all parts.
71
2.7.11 AIR STARTING VALVE
The air starting valve used to deliver compressed air in to combustion chamber of engine for start
engine. The valve is fitted into the cylinder head. It is opened by control air from the starting air
distributor.
Figure 82 - Air starting valve
Working Procedure –
Main starting air at 30 bar from the air tank enters the combustion chamber above the
valve via the circumferential ports in the valve body.
The air pressure will not be open the valve because a spring is holding the valve shut. The area of
the balance piston is the same as that of the valve lid so the valve is pneumatically balanced.
When the valve is required to open, air at 7 bar from the air start distributor enters the top of the
valve body and acts on a piston(this air called pilot air). This force overcomes the spring force
holding the valve shut, and the valve opens. Then 30 bar air flow through ports in to combustion
chamber (Figure 88). When the air signal from the air start distributor is vented, the spring closes
the valve.
72
Figure 83 - Air starting valve
Figure 84 - Before valve open
Figure 85 - After valve open
73
2.7.12 FUEL INJECTOR PUMP
The pump is basically a jerk type with a plunger moving in a matched barrel, using two helical
grooves machined in the plunger to control the end of injection by uncovering spill ports and
causing the discharge pressure to drop rapidly, thus causing the needle valve in the injector to
close
Oil is supplied to the barrel via the spill ports and a suction valve. The suction valve, situated at
the top of the barrel opens when the pressure in the barrel falls below the supply pump pressure
during downward stroke of plunger, while spill ports are covered by plunger.
Replaceable erosion plugs are fitted in the pump housing opposite the spill ports. The high
pressure oil, spilling back, as the edge of the helix uncovers the spill ports at the end of injection,
hit the plugs, which prevent damage to the pump casing.
Figure 86 - Dismantled injector pump
Figure 87 - Injector pump
74
2.7.12.1 VARIABLE INJECTION TIMING (VIT)
The pump is capable of Variable Injection Timing (VIT). This overcomes the disadvantage of
the basic jerk pump, where although the end of injection is infinitely variable, the start of
injection is fixed by the position of the spill ports, injection commencing shortly after the ports
are covered by the top edge of the plunger.
As well as having the normal fuel quantity control (rack which rotates the plunger in the barrel)
the fuel pump is fitted with an adjustable barrel which has a large pitch thread machined on the
bottom. The threaded barrel is located in a threaded sleeve which is rotated by a second rack. As
the sleeve cannot move axially, and the barrel is prevented from rotating, then as the sleeve
rotates, the barrel moves up and down, thus altering the position of the spill ports relative to the
plunger, and varying the start of injection.
2.7.12.2 VARIABLE INJECTION TIMING FUEL PUMP WORKING PROCEDURE
Low pressure air is fed to the pressure control valve, the output of which is fed to the VIT servos
on the fuel pump. A link from the governor output (or fuel pump control hand wheel) moves a
pivoted bar, the position of which determines the output of the pressure control valve.
The position of the control valve is adjustable which can be used to allow for fuels of varying
ignition qualities and changes in the camshaft timing due to chain elongation.
The pivots are also adjustable for initial setting up of the VIT and adjustment of breakpoint
position.

3 CHAPTER 3
3.1 CONCLUSION
Colombo Dockyard is one of the best places for marine engineering trainees who can uplift
a good knowledge in regarding Marine Engineering studies. It is the one and only ship building
company in our country. It gives lots of job opportunities to the country as well as earns lot of
foreign currency. Colombo Dockyard has maintained a leadership through continued emphasis in
research and development and investing in the large technologies as an example Colombo
dockyard currently assembling 160 Ton Level Lifting crane it was the South Asia biggest crane
currently.
CDPLC was my first industrial training period, so according to my experiences I understood
I have successfully absorbed lot of knowledge according to marine engineering field.
There are few suggestions from me, according to my opinion most of marine engineering related
subject carrying on 5th and 7th semester. So it is better to have our training period after these
semesters then we can more familiar marine technology. We can absorb quicker.
Also I suggest making video tutorials for training students learning purpose. It is easy to do in
Colombo dockyard because they have separate media unit. It is important because lot of training
student didn’t get chance to participate all the process, repairs, jobs that shop carried.
Most importantly we had lot of chances to visit other industries and learn a lot and find so many
source persons. So these sources are essential to identify the situation of the current field and the
role we have got to do in the future.
According to my experiences, I believe that I have successfully gained the knowledge during my
training period at Colombo Dockyard PLC. Since the CDPLC was my first industrial training
establishment I had lots of things to learn. To carry out the work assigned to me, the theoretical
knowledge that I got from the Faculty was unforgettable. Colombo Dockyard is a large yard and
there are so many things which cannot cover within 12 weeks.
Finally I want to tell the training engineer Mr. Wikum Silva took a tremendous effort to guide us
in correct path of our industrial training also daily diary which was provided by NAITA helped
me keep in track. I believe this training will change my life in future.

  • 18. 18 2 CHAPTER TWO – TRAINING EXPERIENCE 2.1 INDUSTRIAL SAFETY On the first day that we were attached to the CDL for industrial training, we participated to a safety program conducted by the supervisor of the safety section on Colombo Dockyard. The objective of this safety program is to make the newly appointed trainees get familiarized with the industrial environment of the Colombo Dockyard and the hazards which can be occurred in the dockyard. The important factors which I learnt from the safety program are as follows. Safety is the very essential subject in the engineering field especially in mechanical engineering field. Every employee should know the safety in correct way otherwise his work may be accident to other persons. When industries develop the accidents also increase then safety work is developed to prevent the accidents. All trainees, workers, engineers and others joint to Colombo Dockyard Limited should attend to safety lecture before work. Safety division gives more details about equipment safety methods and behaviors in yard. Safety equipment used in the Dockyard can be classified in to main two groups. Normal (essential) equipment – Safety helmet, Safety belt, Safety shoes, Overall and Life jacket Special equipment–Head shield, Ear plug, Hand shield, Ear mop, Grinding goggle, Hand gloves, Cutting goggle, Dust mask, Welding goggle, Respirator and etc. When we doing work in industrial we must considered safety about main three parts.  Safety of our self  Safety of other person  Safety of environment In the Dockyard safety instructions are noticed in every workshop and every hazardous place. And also when we enter to the dockyard from the gate, the safety instructions are noticed in the wall to get every visitor informed about safety. The safety instructions for workers and the notices are as follows.  Wear suitable close Fitting clothing  Keep long hair tucked under a hat  Wash immediately after contact with harmful substances  Obey special instructions And Notices  Wear protective spectacles or goggles when grinding, welding or in a dusty atmosphere  Wear a safety helmet when other are working above  Where protective footwear, preferably with protective toe caps  Report defective or damaged equipment  Wear ear defenders in specified areas  Wear correct industrial gloves when handling certain materials

There are three welding conditions divided by pipe wall thickness. Those conditions were described by using below diagram. Figure 4 - Pipe Fabrication Types
  • 22. 22 Electrical Arc Welding and Metal Active Gas Arc Welding used to weld pipes. Materials of Pipes – Steel, Copper Procedure - :  Cut pipes in to required length.  Then grind edges until obtain required bevel shape  Fixed pipes on bench vise and adjust work pieces for required distance  Then weld four points of pipe joint circumference.  Then welded whole circumference of pipe joint and remove welded unit from vise. 2.2.4 FLANGES Pipes Flanges used for joint two pipes in together by using nuts and bolts. They are components of the piping system of the ship two flanges are coupled with a packaging seal and they pressure tightened by the use of bolts and nuts. The inner diameter of the pipe is jointed to the flange by welding methods. The thickness of the flanged and no of the holes is varied. Flange have various kinds in type and shape and their material too is diversified (low carbon steel, low alloy steel, stain less steel, high alloy steel, nonferrous steel) in accordance with the type of fluid and service environment. The main parameters of selecting flange is,  Inside and outside diameter of flange  Relevant pressure of flange  Material of flange Figure 5 - Parts of flange

Engines, Purifiers, lubrication oil systems are connected in together by using pipes, Every Pipe line has bending points. Therefore this process most important in ship building. There are three types of pipe bending methods.  Hand bending  Hydraulic bending 2.2.6.1 HAND BENDING This method used for bend small thickness (T) pipes. (2mm > T). Figure 16 - Hand Pipe Bending Procedure
  • 28. 28 Procedure –: 1. Firstly take the pipe and marked the bending points by using measuring tape and maker pen. 2. Then identified bending angle of pipe and bend another steel wire into that required angle. 3. Then mount pipe on pipe bending vice and bend by hand as Figure 16 4. Then check the angle and correct if angle was wrong. 2.2.6.2 HYDRAULIC BENDING MACHINE Figure 17 - Hydraulic Bending Machine 1 Figure 18 - Hydraulic Bending Machine 2
  • 29. 29 2.2.7 CENTRIFUGAL PURIFIER 2.2.7.1 INTRODUCTION The Centrifugal purifier is most important thing in ship because water and impurities of lubrication oil and fuel separated by this system. If same water content have fuel, engine is not working properly because complete combustion of inside of cylinder not happen .Therefore must be remove water from fuel. That is the thing of oil water separate system most important in any ship. Lubrication oil also have some water content, therefor must separate oil from water. Otherwise lubrication oil go thought the engine and water content of oil will be vapor. Because when engine is working it produce high temperature. It can be reduce efficiency of the engine. 2.2.7.2 THEORY The main part of centrifugal purifier is bowl. It rotates with high angular speed (10500 rpm- 11500rpm). Inside of bowl contains disk stack (Figure 19). Figure 19 - Diagram of Purifier
  • 30. 30 Oil flows in to bowl from oil inlet. Oil flows to bottom of bowl. Then oil also rotates with bowl. Then oil takes angular speed of bowl. Result of it, the centrifugal force is acting on oil. Result of it oil flows up through holes of discs between disc stack. Density of water and impurities higher than oil. Therefore centrifugal force of water higher than oil. Result of it oil and water separation is beginning. Oil collected in to middle of bowl and water and impurities collected in to corner of bowl. Procedure – Fixed bowl into purifier system  Firstly closed all pipe connections (oil inlet, oil outlet and water in and out lines, power lines) of the purifying system.  Then remove the water outlet line by removing upper nut. Figure 20 - Centrifugal Purifier System  Then remove upper part of purifier by dismounting bolts of upper part.  Then fixed bowl in to the system as figure 21. Figure 22-Before mount bowl in to System Figure 21 - After Mount Bowl in to System
  • 31. 31  Then checked rotating motion of the fixed bowl by hand.  Then fixed top part of purifier, and connected oil inlet line, oil outlet line, water inlet and out let lines, pressure sensors and temperature sensors.  Then connected sensor in to multi-monitor.  Then started the system and checked oil inlet and outlet pressure, oil temperature and rotating speed of bowl Oil inlet pressure – 1.01 bar Oil outlet pressure – 1.5 bar Temperature of oil inlet – (85 – 95) Celsius Rotating speed of bowl – (10500-11000) rpm Amp of motor – 14.9 A 2.2.7.3 COUPLING ALIGNMENT Coupling alignment is a static condition observed at the bearings supporting the rotating shafts. Accuracy of the alignment is most important thing in machine installation procedure. The amount of coupling misalignment in a machine depends upon several factors such as the stiffness of the shafts, the amount of weight between overhanging supports, the bearing design and the distance between the supports. Figure 23 - Coupling Alignment Radial misalignment checking procedure  Dial indicator was set on the rim of a flange.  Dial indicator was rotated to top position (12:00 position).  Dial indicator scale was adjusted to zero value.  Gauge was rotated to port side.

  • 33. 33 2.3 HULL CONSTRUCTION 2.3.1 INTRODUCTION In hull construction division mainly focus on plate cutting, plate forming and welding. Therefore hull construction shop has been divided in to several sections. They are,  Loft section – Produce the template from the wood by using drawings  Forming – In this section form steel plates at required size and shape by using template  Pre fabrication - After forming of plates units are fabricated by using welding  Unit assembly - After finishing pre fabrication, that pre fabrication unit were assembled together 2.3.2 LIST OF WORK CARRIED OUT  Learned about LOFT works  Referred about CNC plasma cutting machine  Referred about Pug cutting machine  Learned about Metal Active Gas Welding  Referred about bending process 2.3.3 LOFT WORKS Making the pattern design on plate which cut on the plate according to the dimensions, and making template which easy to make the assembling process. They also draw the every symbol on the ship hull. (E.g. – bow mark, plimsol mark and name) Procedure – Marked points  Template Base line  Figure 25 - Curve drawing procedure

  • 35. 35 2.3.4 CNC PLASMA CUTTING MACHINE The hull construction workshop consists of several machines to cut and bend the plates to the required shapes. There I studied about the CNC plasma cutting machine and observed hoe the plates are being marked and cut by the CNC plasma cutter. Plasma beam (ionized gas) is used to cut ferrous and non- ferrous material. Normally 20,000-23,000 Centigrade are produce for oxygen as a plasma gas. Cutting nozzle will be cooled by water. Plasma arc cutting is relatively speeding and cutting kerf is small and finishing are higher than CNC gas cutting and other cutting process inside the workshop. Figure 27 -CNC Plasma Cutting Machine The CNC plasma cutting machine is a computerized machine, where we can give the drawing of the plate we need to be cut. The machine can read the drawing and identify the given dimensions and borders. The drawings can be sent to the machine from the design office trough communication cables. The drawings should be filled with the maximum number of parts to be cut from the plate. Then the wastage of the metal can be reduced. This machine has a sensor to identify the edges of the plate. Once the plate kept on the bed, the edges should be given to the machine. Then the machine will identify the edges with the sensor. So the machine will identify the size of the plate. By this machine, we can mark the plates too. There is a marking torch in this machine and for marking Zinc powder is used. The torch consists of LP gas line, Oxygen line and Zinc powder line. The Zinc powder will be melt and draw the line. The main quality of this Zinc powder marking is that it will not be erased with oils, grease, chemicals and any liquids. The marking speed of the machine is 15000mm/min. The cutter of the machine is a plasma cutter. So the finishing of the cutting edges is better than a gas cutter. There is a cooling line in the nozzle to
  • 36. 36 cool the nozzle. The thickness range of the plates can be cut is 4.5mm to 40mm. There are three types of nozzles according to the thickness ranges Figure 28 - CNC Plasma Cutter Nozzle Size of the nozzle Plate thickness Current (A) 1.7R 4.5mm-12mm 140A 2.3R 13mm-22mm 260A 2.9R 23mm-40mm 400A Table 5 - Nozzle types All the nozzles consist of an electrode. It is common for all nozzles. The cutting speed of the machine will be varied with the thickness of the plates. The machine travelling speed is 2700mm/min. this machine also consists of safety sensors and dust removals  Normally 17,000-23,000 Centigrade produce the plasma cutting process  Zn powder and oxygen + LPG mixture are used to marking process ( Marking speed 15000 mm/min )  O2 and air minimum pressure is 4 bars  For bevel cutting, nozzle 2.9R should be used.

Any cutting shape can be done by this machine. Such as single bevel and double bevel cut can be produce by this machine. Figure 30 - PUG Cutter Machine
  • 38. 38 Figure 31 - Bevel Types PUG cutter machine helps to reduce cost of production and increase efficiency. It is design for heavy duty jobs and also for precision jobs. It works on single phase supply and is operated by 1/30 HP. AC Power supply is 230 v 50 Hz. Machine is designed to operate or magnetic effect in the roller shaft of gear box. Movement of gas cutting nozzle is directly linked with magnetic roller shaft which results in fine cutting of metal. PUG cutter machine can adjust the speed of machine according to thickness of cutting metal. This machine can be moved in the forward and reverse direction. Regulator is used to change the speed of cutter. For straight line cutting machine runs on an aluminum track and for circle cutting attachment will also supplied This machine is suitable for cutting metal sheets and plates. Oxygen and acetylene gases used in this machine. Oxygen gas used for cutting and acetylene gas used for increase heat. At cutting operation firstly open the acetylene valve and after open oxygen valve. At end of working firstly close the acetylene valve and then closed the oxygen valve. Reason is acetylene is a very dangerous and it can be spread and fire easily. Red line – Acetylene gas Blue line – Oxygen gas Maximum Thickness – 150mm Speed – 150 – 1000 mm/min Temperature – 600 – 800 Celsius
  • 39. 39 2.3.6 METAL ACTIVE GAS ARC WELDING Principle of the process – The process melts and fuses metal using the intense heat generated by an electric arc between the metals to be jointed and a filler wire. The wire is progressively melted as some speed at which it is being feed by the wire feeder. Both arc and weld pool protected against atmospheric contamination by shielding gas. Shielded gas – Carbon dioxide Figure 33 - MAG Welding 2.3.7 STEEL BAR USED IN DOCKYARD  Angle – Figure 34 - Angle Steel Bar  Tee – Figure 35 - Tee Steel Bar Figure 32 - MAG Welding 2

  • 41. 41 2.3.8 BENDING PROCESS There are three types of bending processes in hull construction. They are,  Rolling  Pressing  Line heating 2.3.8.1 ROLLING Rolling is the metal forming process in which metal is passes through one or more pairs of rolls to reduce the thickness and to make constant thickness of plate. Produced curve shape of metal plate by this process. Maximum thickness – 25mm Maximum Pressure – 2.5bar 15Kw, Current – 400v Figure 39 - Bending Machine Figure 40 – Forming by rolling machine
  • 42. 42 2.3.8.2 PRESSING Steel plates also bend by using press machine. Before apply rolling machine steel plates were pre bend by using pressing. They used this machine when steel plates were bending along the straight line. Figure 41 - Steel Plate Bend by Pressing Figure 42 - Pressing machine
  • 43. 43 2.3.8.3 LINE HEATING Rolling and pressing machines can make single or double axis shapes only, but in line heating process can be made three axis shapes. Therefore it is most important process in ship building, but it is slow process. Line heating theory – Heating creates a thermal stress in a very small region. Due to rise in temperature the elastic limit of the heat affected region will decrease. As the heat source travels the adjacent material even if not cooled with water remains cool enough to resist the thermally created stress. So heated surface swells beyond its elastic limit and therefore after cooling retains some minute deformation. During the cooling process bulge side surface contract s more than other side resulting in angular distortion and some amount of overall shrinkage. Line Heating Procedure – 1. Marked heating lines according to the shape of the bending. 2. Then apply heat by using LP gas torch along the lines 3. Then apply the fresh water in to heated areas 4. Heating and watering process should be done until obtain the shape of template 5. For reduce the bend shape heat should be applied to the bend side of the plate and apply water Apply Heat Swelling of plate After apply water Figure 43 - Line heating procedure
  • 44. 44 Reasonof used LP gas in line heating process –  LP gas cost is lower than acetylene  Mild steel grain structure is change in 725 Celsius but LP gas maximum temperature is 600 Celsius. therefore LP gas not damaged grain structure of the material.  Acetylene will be change mechanical properties of mild steel
  • 45. 45 2.4 HULL TREATMENT 2.4.1 INTRODUCTION In hull treatment division mainly focus on blasting and painting to the new construction and hull treatment to ships which are docked to repair their hull New building ships units are send to blasting chamber to blasting process, it is done by unit because the shops are built like that way and assembled in a dry dock. 2.4.2 LIST OF WORK CARRIED OUT  Learned about blasting procedure.  Referred about paints  Learned about profile test, dust test, salt test.  Learned about hull treatment procedure for new construction ship.  Learned about hull treatment procedure for dry docking ships.  Learned ballast tank cleaning procedure. 2.4.3 SURFACE PREPARATION Before applying any coatings surface should be cleaned. Oil, grease, salt, rust, barnacles, old paints and weld spatters should be removed. To remove that surface most effective way is blasting 2.4.4 BLASTING Blasting is a system to clean a metal surface in deferent levels. Figure 44 - Blasting machine
  • 46. 46 This cleaning level depends on the condition of the metal plate. There are four grades for blast cleaning.  SA 1 - Light blast cleaning to remove rust and paint.  SA 2 - Loosely adhering, rust and old paint coatings are removed from steel.30% of paint shadow can remain.  SA 2.5 - Very thorough blast cleaning to achieve near white metal.5% of Paint shadow can remain.  SA 3 – Blast cleaning to visually clean steel. 100% of paint shadow should remove. Figure 45 - Blasting Types of Blasting  Spot blasting – only the place that corrosion has occurred.  Sweep blasting – blasting is done across the surface, abrasive particle size is important. Light sweeping – clean the surface of contaminations, not for heavy corrosion or loose coatings. Heavy sweeping – old coatings are removed. Sweeping of shop primers – in new building it is necessary to remove the shop primer coating.  Wet blasting (Slurry blasting) – Used abrasive , High pressure water and air  Hydro - blasting – high pressure 680 – 1700 bar, ultrahigh pressure above 1700bar.
  • 47. 47 2.4.5 PROFILE TEST After blasting the surface will be rough. This roughness is very important to apply the paint. But this roughness should be in a range. This range should be measure. For measure this surface profile we can use replica type and spring micrometer. Procedure 1. Choose a suitable replica tape according to profile. 2. Remove the backing and paste the replica tape on the surface. 3. Rub burnishing tool over the round cut – out portion of replica tape using moderate film pressure. 4. Remove replica tape and place it on spring micrometer. This value should be between 30 and 75 microns. Figure 46 - Profile testing procedure 2.4.6 DUST TEST A dust tape test allows assessment of the quantity and size of dust particles on surface prepared for painting. Dust on blast cleaned surfaces can reduce coating adhesion and lead to coating failure. Procedure 1. Past the dust tape on the surface. (Step 1 ) 2. Pressurize the tape manually or with a roller. 3. Then remove the tape from surface and paste it on transparent paper. 4. Compare the tape with the dust quality rating specimens. (Step 2,3)

  • 54. 54 2.5.5 PISTON RINGS Piston rings are an important part of the engine yet they tend to be neglected because they are consumable item. Function of piston rings:  Provide a seal to the combustion chamber to prevent gases and combustion products passing the piston.  Control the lubricating oil.  Conduct heat away from the piston to the liner. Types of rings:  Compression rings – The compression rings provide sealing above the piston and prevents the gas leakage from the combustion side. The compression rings are located in the top grooves of the piston.  Intermediate Ring - The oil in controlled by shearing the layer of the oil left by oil ring, thus providing the top compression rings enough lubrication. Moreover, it also provides help to the top compression ring in sealing.  Scraper or oil control rings – Distributes oil on the cylinder liner preventing the oil passing upwards in to the combustion chamber.

Heat exchangers can be used for a wide variety of uses.as the name implies. These can be used for heating as well as cooling. The two primary types of marine heat exchangers used board vessels in maritime industry. 2.7.7.1 PLATE TYPE Sets of multiple parallel plates that are compressed to form main cool unit.it has a small foot print plates placed next to each other. They create passage ways to fluid to flow between plates. Gaskets are placed around edge of each plate in order to prevent mixing of two fluid Figure 74 - Plates with Gaskets Figure 75 - Plate type heat exchanger

Depending on amount of cooling needed. Shell and tube heat exchangers can be built in single or double pass configuration. Number of pass refers to number of times fluid in shell passes by fluid in tubes.This achieved by placing baffles in shell that allow for fluid to be directed. Figure 76 - Shell and tube heat exchanger Gasket materials -: Water – Rubber Lubrication oil – Elite Steam – Steam joint Uses – heat exchangers on board vessels are used in many systems. Systems are lubrication oil, jacket water, Steam and main sea water 2.7.8 PISTONS Piston is the main component of engine. It is the moving component that is contained by a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. In an engine, its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod in engine. There are two types of pistons in industry 1. Trunk piston 2. Crosshead piston
  • 68. 68 2.7.8.1 TRUNK PISTONE The piston is directly attached to the connecting rod by a gudgeon pin. Side thrust is absorbed by extended skirts on piston. The main advantage of this type engine is reduced engine height. This type used for high speed engines Figure 77 - Trunk piston 2.7.8.2 CROSS HEAD PISTON In cross head piston, piston rod is bolted to the piston and passes through a stuffing box mounted in the diaphragm plate. The foot of the piston rod is bolted to the crosshead pin. The top of the connecting road swing about the crosshead pin, as the downward load from the expanding gas applies a turning force to the crank shaft. Figure 78 - Cross head piston
  • 69. 69 2.7.9 PROCEDURE OF DISMANTLING PISTON 1. Firstly dismantled engine head from engine 2. Then piston moved to bottom dead center and dismantled piston rod from cross head and dismantled stuffing box from stuffing box flange. 3. Then piston moved to top dead center. 4. Then fixed chain blocks in to lifting grooves of piston and lift piston up with stuffing box. 5. Then piston lifted up from engine. 6. Then taken but clearance of piston rings and remove rings by using piston ring expander. 7. Then removed piston rod from piston skirt. Figure 79 - Dismantled piston rod 8. Then applied die penetration test in to piston skirt for check cracks on piston skirt. 9. After that cleaned all parts of piston including stuffing box and re assembled all the parts in together. 2.7.10 STUFFING BOX Stuffing box is the seal prevented leaking oil from the crankcase being carried upwards, or used cylinder oil contaminated from products of combustion being carried downwards. It is also highly undesirable to allow the pressurized air in the scavenge space to leak into the crankcase. The stuffing box casing which can be split vertically, as shown in the photo, contains a series of scraper rings and sealing rings which are each made up of three or four segments. On the outside of each set of segments is a garter spring which provides the tension to hold the ring segments against the piston rod. There is a clearance between each segment to allow for wear.
  • 70. 70 The rings are either bronze or can comprise of replaceable cast iron lamella fitted into a steel backing ring. Figure 80 - Stuffing box inside Procedure- 1. Remove the bolts of stuffing box case 2. Using filler gauge measured the vertical clearance of the rings and clearance of ring segments. 3. Then measured but clearance by using vernier caliper. 4. Remove the springs of the rings and remove ring parts. Figure 81 - Stuffing box ring 5. Then clean the all rings, springs and stuffing box case 6. Then fixed again all parts.
  • 71. 71 2.7.11 AIR STARTING VALVE The air starting valve used to deliver compressed air in to combustion chamber of engine for start engine. The valve is fitted into the cylinder head. It is opened by control air from the starting air distributor. Figure 82 - Air starting valve Working Procedure – Main starting air at 30 bar from the air tank enters the combustion chamber above the valve via the circumferential ports in the valve body. The air pressure will not be open the valve because a spring is holding the valve shut. The area of the balance piston is the same as that of the valve lid so the valve is pneumatically balanced. When the valve is required to open, air at 7 bar from the air start distributor enters the top of the valve body and acts on a piston(this air called pilot air). This force overcomes the spring force holding the valve shut, and the valve opens. Then 30 bar air flow through ports in to combustion chamber (Figure 88). When the air signal from the air start distributor is vented, the spring closes the valve.

  • 73. 73 2.7.12 FUEL INJECTOR PUMP The pump is basically a jerk type with a plunger moving in a matched barrel, using two helical grooves machined in the plunger to control the end of injection by uncovering spill ports and causing the discharge pressure to drop rapidly, thus causing the needle valve in the injector to close Oil is supplied to the barrel via the spill ports and a suction valve. The suction valve, situated at the top of the barrel opens when the pressure in the barrel falls below the supply pump pressure during downward stroke of plunger, while spill ports are covered by plunger. Replaceable erosion plugs are fitted in the pump housing opposite the spill ports. The high pressure oil, spilling back, as the edge of the helix uncovers the spill ports at the end of injection, hit the plugs, which prevent damage to the pump casing. Figure 86 - Dismantled injector pump Figure 87 - Injector pump
  • 74. 74 2.7.12.1 VARIABLE INJECTION TIMING (VIT) The pump is capable of Variable Injection Timing (VIT). This overcomes the disadvantage of the basic jerk pump, where although the end of injection is infinitely variable, the start of injection is fixed by the position of the spill ports, injection commencing shortly after the ports are covered by the top edge of the plunger. As well as having the normal fuel quantity control (rack which rotates the plunger in the barrel) the fuel pump is fitted with an adjustable barrel which has a large pitch thread machined on the bottom. The threaded barrel is located in a threaded sleeve which is rotated by a second rack. As the sleeve cannot move axially, and the barrel is prevented from rotating, then as the sleeve rotates, the barrel moves up and down, thus altering the position of the spill ports relative to the plunger, and varying the start of injection. 2.7.12.2 VARIABLE INJECTION TIMING FUEL PUMP WORKING PROCEDURE Low pressure air is fed to the pressure control valve, the output of which is fed to the VIT servos on the fuel pump. A link from the governor output (or fuel pump control hand wheel) moves a pivoted bar, the position of which determines the output of the pressure control valve. The position of the control valve is adjustable which can be used to allow for fuels of varying ignition qualities and changes in the camshaft timing due to chain elongation. The pivots are also adjustable for initial setting up of the VIT and adjustment of breakpoint position. Figure 88 - VIT Fuel injector diagram

  • 80. 80 3 CHAPTER 3 3.1 CONCLUSION Colombo Dockyard is one of the best places for marine engineering trainees who can uplift a good knowledge in regarding Marine Engineering studies. It is the one and only ship building company in our country. It gives lots of job opportunities to the country as well as earns lot of foreign currency. Colombo Dockyard has maintained a leadership through continued emphasis in research and development and investing in the large technologies as an example Colombo dockyard currently assembling 160 Ton Level Lifting crane it was the South Asia biggest crane currently. CDPLC was my first industrial training period, so according to my experiences I understood I have successfully absorbed lot of knowledge according to marine engineering field. There are few suggestions from me, according to my opinion most of marine engineering related subject carrying on 5th and 7th semester. So it is better to have our training period after these semesters then we can more familiar marine technology. We can absorb quicker. Also I suggest making video tutorials for training students learning purpose. It is easy to do in Colombo dockyard because they have separate media unit. It is important because lot of training student didn’t get chance to participate all the process, repairs, jobs that shop carried. Most importantly we had lot of chances to visit other industries and learn a lot and find so many source persons. So these sources are essential to identify the situation of the current field and the role we have got to do in the future. According to my experiences, I believe that I have successfully gained the knowledge during my training period at Colombo Dockyard PLC. Since the CDPLC was my first industrial training establishment I had lots of things to learn. To carry out the work assigned to me, the theoretical knowledge that I got from the Faculty was unforgettable. Colombo Dockyard is a large yard and there are so many things which cannot cover within 12 weeks. Finally I want to tell the training engineer Mr. Wikum Silva took a tremendous effort to guide us in correct path of our industrial training also daily diary which was provided by NAITA helped me keep in track. I believe this training will change my life in future.
