  • METHOD AND DEVICE FOR EVALUATING SHAFTING ALIGNMENT OF SHIP
    Publication number: 20130158781
    Abstract: An evaluation map showing the allowable ranges (A) of the crank deflection and bearing loads determined according to the inclination of the crankshaft of an engine and the intermediate shaft is prepared beforehand. When the engine is installed in a ship, the inclination of the shafts within the allowable ranges can be easily known. While the ship is in service, the shafting alignment of the ship can be evaluated by merely measuring the inclination of the crankshaft and the intermediate shaft.
