Liquid Cargo Handling Simulators (LCHS)
The Full Mission Multi‐Model solution includes four
cargo control consoles including pump and valve
controls, mimic pipeline panel and cargo (deck)
panel.
A single instructor station has control of all trainee
consoles. Different configurations can be set up
based on the training objectives. Recording of all
events and actions as well as CCTV recording are
available for thorough debriefing.
The mathematical model forms the backbone of the
simulator software and is the core component of
the simulator which imparts the expected level of
realistic behavior. The model from ARI Liquid Cargo
Handling Simulator has been jointly developed by
experts in the field of fluid dynamics, thermody‐
namics, tanker technology, tanker operations, phys‐
ics, mathematics and ship construction.
The end result is a model which is robust, versatile,
dynamic and above all completely true and relevant
in every situation.
Some of the fault types available are jammed valves
(open or closed condition), equipment control
failures (e.g. COP speed control failure), abnormal
operating conditions (e.g. excessive rise in bearing
temperatures indicating abnormal wear and tear or
near imminent collapse of equipment), and many
others.
The graphical interface for introducing faults is
highly intuitive in nature. The instructor remains in
control of the faults at all times including the faults
which are currently being applied and those
awaiting application.
Liquid Cargo Scenarios
Cargo Operating Panel (Deck System) for individual
ship types from where the trainee operates all the
“local” components of the cargo system such as
valves, pumps, compressors, shut down system etc.
All systems which are not remotely operated from
the Cargo Control Panel (CCP) are represented and
accessible from the CCP. This includes cargo load‐
ing/discharging valves, tank washing systems, port‐
able gas detection systems, vent control systems,
spool pieces and blanks, drains, pressure relief
valves, heater and booster pumps and many others.
Each tanker type is equipped with its own type spe‐
cific operating panel which is fully integrated with
the CCP.
Liquid Cargo Tanker Types
The simulator includes the following components
and subsystems:
• Cargo Control System and Ballast Control
System.
• Tank Cleaning Discharge Monitoring Systems.
• Tank Content Monitoring Systems.
• Inert/Venting Control System including
sparging, gas freeing, purging and rating.
• Tank Atmosphere Control System including
tank cool‐down system.
• Cargo Re‐liquefaction System and subsystems
• Alarm System and Communication System
• Tell me, Cargo Pumping System (hydraulic,
electric or steam dependant on vessel type.
