1. Airflow Calculation

The total airflow Q to the engine room shall be at least the larger value of the two fol
calculations. The total airflow of the system is designed for the biggest. This means t
two kind of calculation (based on ISO 8861). These are :
qc + qh
Q :
1,5

Q :
Where:
Q : Total airflow in the engine room
qc : The sum of the airflow for combustion
qh : The sum of the airflow necessary for heat evacuation
1.1 The Sum of the Airflow for Combustion

The sum of the airflow for combustion, qc , shall be calculated, in cubic metres per se
follows:

Where:

qc : qdp + qdg + qb
qdp : The airflow for combustion for main propulsion diesel en
metres per second
qdg : The airflow for combustion for diesel generator engine (s
metres per second
qb : The airflow for combustion for boiler (s), in cubic metres

mad : The air requirement for combustion for diesel engine(s),
kilowatt
mad =second
0,0023 kg/(kWs) for 2-stroke engines,
0,0020 kg/(kWs) for 4-stroke engines.

So, the result of airflow combustion for main propulsion diesel engine is:
qdp : (4000 x 0,002)/1,13

7.079646 m3/s

b) The airflow for combustion for diesel generator engine

The airflow for combustion for diesel generator engine(s), qdg , shall be calculated, in

0,0023 kg/(kWs) for 2-stroke engines,
0,0020 kg/(kWs) for 4-stroke engines.
:

1,13 kg/m (i.e. the density of air, at + 35 C, 70 RH and

So, the result of airflow for combustion for diesel generator engine is:
qdg : (3 x 322 x 0,002)/1,13
:
1.710 m3/s
c) The airflow for combustion for boiler and thermal fluid heaters

The airflow for combustion for boiler(s), qb , shall be calculated, in cubic metres per s
follows:

1) In a case where the total steam capacity of a boiler is known, the following formul

following formula is used:

Where:

Q : The maximum continuous rating of the boiler (s) (kW)

So, the result of airflow for combustion for boiler and thermal fluid heater is:
qb : (0,3 x 0,12 x 15,7)/1,13

0.5 m3/s

1.2 Airflow for Evacuation of Heat Emission

The sum of the airflow necessary for heat evacuation, qh , shall be calculated, in cub
second, as follows:

Where :
a) Heat emission from main propulsion diesel engine (s)

The heat emission from main propulsion diesel engine(s),dp, shall be taken, in kilow

Pdp : MCR of Diesel Engine

hd : The value is doesn't know, so use graphic 7.1 in ISO 886

So, dp :

138 kW

b) Heat emission from diesel generator engine (s)

The heat emission from diesel generator engine(s), dg, shall be taken, in kilowatts,
Pdg x (hd/100)
dg :
:
6.44 kW
c) Heat emission from boiler and thermal fluid heater (s)

In the case when the demand for heat is covered by a thermal fluid heater or the cap
is known in kilowatts, the following formula is used:
b : Q x B1 x hb
:
1.6 kW

d) Heat emission from steam and condensate pipes

The heat emission from steam and condensate pipes, p, shall be calculated, in kilow
p :
0 ( not use steam in this design )
e) Heat emission from electrical generator (s)
The heat emission from air-cooled generator(s), g, shall be calculated, in kilowatts,
g : Pg x (1-(/100))
:
19.32 kW

f) Heat emission from electrical installation

The heat emission from electrical installations, el, shall be calculated, in kilowatts, i
with one of the following two alternative methods in descending order of preference

For conventional ships where full details of the electrical installations are not known,
emission is taken as 20 % of the rated power of the electrical apparatus and lighting
at sea.
el : 20% x Pdg
:

64.4 kW

g) Heat emission from exhaust pipes and exhaust gas fired-boiler (s)
The heat emission from exhaust pipes and exhaust gas-fired boiler(s) may be determ
curves in 7.3, in kilowatts per metre of pipe.

Exhaust gas pipes and exhaust gas-fired boiler(s) situated in the casing and funnel s
taken into account.
h) Heat emission from hot tank (s)

The heat emission from hot tanks, t, in kilowatts, shall be based on the sum of the h
surfaces contiguous with the engine room, using the values given in table 1.

t :

0.02 kW/m2

i) Heat emission from other component (s)

The heat emission from other components, o, in kilowatts, e.g. compressor(s), steam
reduction gear(s), separator(s), heat exchanger(s), piping and hydraulic system(s), sh
when calculating the sum of the airflow for evacuation of heat emission.
o :

4.5 kW

So, the airflow for evacuation of heat emission calculated use this formula.

qh :

13.406 m3/s

1.3 Total Airflow

The total airflow Q to the engine room shall be at least the larger value of the two fol
calculations. The total airflow of the system is designed for the biggest. This means t
two kind of calculation (based on ISO 8861). These are :
Q :
Q :

qc + qh
1,5 x qc

(Equation 1)
(Equation 2)

Where:
Q : Total airflow in the engine room
qc : The sum of the airflow for combustion
qh : The sum of the airflow necessary for heat evacuation
So, the total airflow based on equation 1 is:
Q :
22.696 m3/s
So, the total airflow based on equation 2 is:
Q :
13.934 m3/s

From the calculation above, taken the total airflow based on equation 1. So, the total

2. Main Diameter of Ducting and Air Velocity

The recommended flow velocity in the pipe is 3540 m/s at full output. If there are m
factors in the piping, or the pipe is very long, then the flow velocity needs to be lowe
