Fig. 12.02.01: Seawater cooling system
The seawater cooling system <strong>is</strong> used for cooling,
the main engine lubricating oil cooler, the jacket
water cooler and the scavenge air cooler, see Fig.
2.02.0 .
The lubricating oil cooler for a PTO step�up gear
should be connected in parallel with the other
coolers. The capacity of the seawater pump <strong>is</strong>
based on the outlet temperature of the seawater
being maximum 50 °C after passing through the
coolers – with an inlet temperature of maximum
32 °C (tropical conditions), i.e. a maximum temperature
increase of 8 °C.
The valves located in the system fitted to adjust
the d<strong>is</strong>tribution of cooling water flow are to be
provided with graduated scales.

The inter�related positioning of the coolers in the
system serves to achieve:
• The lowest possible cooling water inlet temperature
to the lubricating oil cooler in order to
obtain the cheapest cooler. On the other hand,
in order to prevent the lubricating oil from stiffening
in cold services, the inlet cooling water
temperature should not be lower than 0 °C
• The lowest possible cooling water inlet temperature
to the scavenge air cooler, in order to keep
the fuel oil consumption as low as possible.
