Air-conditioning systems on ships

The air conditioning on the objects of civil and military appointments are subject to a complex organization. Practice shows that today conditioning vessels successfully provide used system, the principle of which – the theme of this article.

The principle of operation of the marine air conditioning system and its main features are similar to traditional industrial air conditioning systems. The refrigeration unit or chiller cooled by seawater is responsible for the dilution of the coolant by the pipelines of the building (in our case – the vessel). It is placed in the engine room.

Depending on the structure of technical facilities have pumps that are responsible for distilling seawater. The refrigeration unit of compact size can operate both heating water and for its cooling.

Conditioning cabins they establish so-called closers, which are kind of taking away and feed through the bars of the air. Every finisher is a filter that cleans the air, which can be easily removed and washed, and digital control panel. Management and control of air conditioning systems operating center console, which is located in the department of wheelhouse.

Closers equipped with local electric heaters can be the primary or supplementary heating system. The temperatures are regulated in mind the needs of the user, provided operation closer.

An important aspect is the limited space to be conditioned. For small volumes of space provided. The compact layout of the refrigerant may be a solution of the problem, being similar to the version with central air-conditioning. It is imperative to corrosion resistance equipment, which allows to avoid the noise in terms of pitching.

Since climate conditioning of the vessel may be totally different, it is important reliability over a wide temperature range. When properly installed air conditioning system on the vessel achieving maximum comfort in any climate zone.
