Make Up
At present, the vast majority of ships are using reciprocating diesel engines in internal combustion engines as the main engine, and some warships use nuclear and electric main engines. Power equipment installed to ensure the normal operation of the ship. Ship main engine includes three main parts:
① main power plant;
② Auxiliary power unit;
③ Other auxiliary machinery and equipment.

Main Power Plant
The main engine and its auxiliary equipment, which provide propulsion power for the ship, are the heart of the whole ship. The main power unit is named after the type of engine. At present, the main engine has five categories, such as steam engine, steam turbine, diesel engine, gas turbine and nuclear power plant. The main engine of modern transport ships is mainly diesel engine, which has an absolute advantage in number. Steam engine once played an important role in the history of ship development, but it has been almost eliminated. Steam turbine has long been dominant in high-power ships, but it is increasingly replaced by diesel engines. Gas turbines and nuclear power plants have only been tried on a small number of ships and have not been popularized.

Steam Engine Power Plant
The advantages of steam engine power plant are simple structure, low cost, convenient management and use, and low manufacturing process requirements; The disadvantage is that the thermal efficiency is low, the weight of itself is large, especially the moving parts of the piston and connecting rod of the high-power steam engine have great inertia, which is difficult to balance, and the low-pressure cylinder size is too large, and the effective vacuum degree cannot be obtained. Therefore, since the steam turbine power plant and the diesel engine power plant were successfully tried on board, the steam engine power plant was gradually phased out. During World War II, the Freedom Ship, built by the United States to meet wartime emergency needs, was one of the last ocean-going ships to use steam engine power plants. At present, there are still a few coastal and inland river ships in China using reciprocating multi-expansion steam engine power plants.

Diesel Engine Power Plant
The biggest advantage of diesel engine power plant is high thermal efficiency, and fuel consumption is significantly lower than that of steam engine power plant. For a long time, the diesel engine power plant has a series of improvements, mainly: (1) In the 1920s to mechanical injection instead of compressed air injection method; ② At the same time, the exhaust gas turbocharger was trial-produced, which improved the power and performance of the diesel engine; The 1930s began to burn heavy diesel fuel, reducing fuel costs. Early diesel engines were not very powerful. The largest diesel engines used in merchant ships during the First World War had a power of only 4,000 HP, and before the Second World War, the single-machine power reached 20,000 HP. Now the single power of low-speed diesel engine has reached more than 50,000 horsepower.
Most of the modern Marine diesel engines are low-speed machines, the speed is about 100 revolutions per minute, and the propeller can be directly driven. In the early 1980s, there were long-stroke and ultra-long-stroke low-speed machines, and the speed was reduced to less than 70 revolutions per minute, so that the propeller could play the best efficiency. But the low speed machine size and weight is large. In recent years, the high-power medium-speed engines that appeared after the Second World War have been gradually applied to ships. It arranges the cylinders in a V-shape and adopts a reduction gear, which greatly reduces the weight of the fuselage and is conducive to improving the efficiency of the propeller. Due to the short fuselage, the medium speed machine can reduce the area and height of the engine room, so it is especially suitable for the tail engine room ship and the engine room is located under the deck of the ro-ro ship and barge.
After continuous improvement, the diesel engine power plant is becoming more and more perfect, it has the lowest fuel consumption, can use cheap residual oil, high reliability, the maintenance period is more than 30,000 hours, and the thermal efficiency is close to 50%, so it has become the most widely used Marine power plant.

Gas Turbine Power Plant
Gas turbine power plants began to be used in ships in the 1950s. Currently it is mainly used for military ships. Compared with diesel engine and steam turbine, gas turbine has large power, small size, light weight, good acceleration performance, and can start at any time and quickly emit maximum power. Gas turbine works at high temperature and high pressure, has high requirements on fuel quality, and its thermal efficiency is much lower than that of diesel engine, so it is not used much in civil transport ships. Used only on certain hovercraft to drive air propellers.

Nuclear Power Plant
A turbine unit that produces steam by using a reactor instead of conventional fuel. The large energy generated by nuclear fission in the reactor is absorbed by the circulating cooling water, which in turn transfers heat to the water in the second loop through the steam generator, making it become steam and then do work in the turbine.
Nuclear power plants are mainly used in large warships and submarines.

Auxiliary Power Unit
An apparatus, such as a generator set, auxiliary boiler, etc., that provides electricity, lighting, and other power for the whole ship. The generator set is the most important auxiliary power unit on the ship. The generator sets on board are driven by steam engines (sometimes by small steam turbines), but the capacity is small, mainly for lighting power. On a steam turbine ship, the generator set is driven by the steam turbine and provides power for the entire ship's electrical equipment. Most of this turbine generator set has been serialized, with capacities ranging from 500 kW to 2500 kW, and can be freely selected. On a diesel ship, there are 2 to 3 generator sets, driven by a separately set medium or high speed diesel engine. The capacity is determined by the number of electro-mechanical equipment in the whole ship, generally using 440 volts three-phase alternating current, with two frequencies of 50 Hertz and 60 Hertz. Auxiliary boilers are used on steam and steam turbine ships for berthing, and on diesel ships for heating and heating. The fuel of the auxiliary boiler on a diesel ship can be oil, or the steam produced by the exhaust gas of the diesel engine can be used. In addition to the generator set and auxiliary boiler, due to the driving needs of modern hydraulic mechanical equipment on board, there is also a hydraulic power unit, the main component of which is a hydraulic oil pump, which can be driven by an electric motor or a separate diesel engine.

Other Auxiliary Machinery and Equipment
With the continuous improvement of the performance of the transport ship, the auxiliary machinery and equipment on the ship are increasingly complex, the most basic are :① steering engine, anchor machine, cargo winch and other auxiliary machinery. These machines are powered by steam on steam-powered ships, electric on diesel-powered ships, and most have now been hydraulically driven. ② Various piping systems. Such as a water supply system for the whole ship with sea and fresh water; Ballast water system for regulating ballast of ships; Bilge discharge system for the removal of bilge water; Providing compressed air systems for the entire ship; Fire fighting systems for fire fighting, etc. Most of the equipment used in these systems, such as pumps and compressors, is electric and can be controlled automatically. (3) Heating, air conditioning, ventilation, refrigeration and other systems for the life of crew and passengers. These systems can generally be adjusted and controlled automatically.
