M. Beniušis “Vibration research of heat exchanger and cooling piping in Victoria Seaways ferry”. Final work of the master studies of ship design and building program. Academic supervisor Dr. P. Mažeika, Klaipeda University: Klaipėda, 2014. Keywords: vibrations, ship, ferry, vibration research, heat exchanger. The theoretical part of the final work describes the classification of vibration, main excitations of vibration and analyses various methods for reduction of the vibration level on board and vibration calculation. The experimental part presents the vibration measurement methodology in the cooling systems of Victoria Seaways and Athena Seaways ferries. It examines the results of measurements carried out during Klaipėda-Kiel-Klaipėda trip and identifies the reasons for the recent level of vibration in the analysed cooling system. The final part of the work contains the conclusions and recommendations. |
