Knowledge:

- application of refrigeration technology and air-conditioning systems on sea-going ships, Register requirements for ship refrigeration plants and air-conditioning systems;

- fundamentals of moist-air thermodynamics and air-state processes on the d-h diagram;

- purpose, materials, design and calculation of ship thermal, vapour and waterproof insulation;

- types of heat exchangers, cooling systems, air-conditioning systems and main heat-transfer processes in them;

- schemes of ship refrigeration plants and air-conditioning systems, their main units and operational requirements.

Skills:

- to use the d-h diagram for analysing moist-air treatment processes;

- to perform thermal calculations of insulation, heat exchangers, cooling systems and air-conditioning systems;

- to select refrigerants, secondary coolants, refrigeration supply methods and operating parameters of air-conditioning systems;

- to read diagrams of ship refrigeration plants and air-conditioning systems and use them during operation.
