diesel engines and medium speed 4 stroke marine diesel engines as found on
the majority of ocean going merchant vessels.
-
To aid cadet engineer officers in their
understanding of these large powerful engines.
-
To help students studying towards MCA certificates
of competency by giving hints on how to answer examination questions.
-
To provide links to manufacturers, regulatory
