This is a complete reference to ship's electrical system operation, safety, and testing. It deals with electro magnetism, switchboards, and semiconductor theory relating to diodes, transistors, and thyristors. Electrical safety and safe working practice is stressed throughout. The significance of circuit faults and the various forms of protective switchgear are discussed. The textbook uses many fully worked problems with sample questions and solutions included in the text to illustrate the importance of operating various marine electrical machinery systems on board in a safe and efficient manner.

MARINE POWER PLANT 2: STEAM
The book gives a good introduction to steam power plant design, installations, operations, and maintenance. Focus is put on boiler operation and maintenance including procedures to be followed to detect the most common defects. The importance of proper boiler water testing and treatment is emphasized and exemplified by various test normally carried out, also, by using boiler water test kit. Concepts are presented in an easy-to-understand manner.

MARITIME THERMODYNAMICS 2
The textbook explains in clear, readable, and practical language the operation, monitoring, and maintenance of basic thermodynamic machines and systems such as engines, compressors, refrigeration, and steam plant. It also discusses the constraints and effectiveness of these thermodynamic machines and how their performance can be improved. Emphasis is put on the application of the First, Second, and Third Laws of Thermodynamics to engineering systems. Review questions are provided to assess students understanding of thermodynamic theory and the ability to generate problem identification, formulation, and solution in the context of thermodynamics. Also, the sample problems will help the readers understand the devices and processes within thermodynamic machines.
