Abstract

Generators are one of the important auxiliary aircraft needed on ships for power generation. During the operation of a diesel generator, continuous rotation occurs resulting in friction and erosion of the moving parts. The supporting factor for the smooth running of a diesel engine is a lubrication system that is supported by good lubricating oil quality, besides that it also needs to be supported by an adequate and good cooling system. The use of lubricants is one of the most important factors to ensure the performance of diesel engines. The lubricant is in charge of maintaining the condition of the engine so that it remains stable. This study aims to analyze the effect of using lubricating oil beyond the operating hours limit on engine heat. Furthermore, it also discusses steps to ensure diesel engine temperatures remain normal. This research was carried out during the practice of sailing on a ship for approximately one year. This study uses a descriptive quantitative research method. The primary data obtained directly utilizes observation methods, and documentation. Secondary data was obtained from existing articles and journals. The data analysis techniques used are descriptive analysis and inferential analysis. The results of this study show that the working hours of lubricating oil use have a significant influence on the increase in the temperature of diesel generator engines as evidenced by hypothesis tests on two engine units, namely AE1 and AE2. In the AE1 unit, a t-value of 18.467 with a significance of 0.000 was obtained, while in AE2 the t-value was 14.289 with a significance of 0.000. The significance value in both units is less than 0.05 so it can be concluded that the working hours of lubricated oil have a significant influence on the temperature of the genarato diesel engine on the ship.

Abstract

The steering gear is a vital component in ship operations, functioning to control the ship’s direction accurately. The reliability of this system highly depends on the performance of the hydraulic system, where the mechanical seal plays a key role in maintaining system pressure and preventing oil leakage. This study aims to identify the main factors causing mechanical seal damage and analyze its impact on the performance efficiency of the steering gear AHTS Logindo Stamina. Qualitative data were obtained through participatory observation and in-depth interviews with the second engineer. Meanwhile, quantitative data were gathered by measuring technical parameters such as oil pressure, operating temperature, and rudder movement time, which were then compared with SOLAS standards. This damage results in oil leakage through the mechanical seal gap, abnormal noise in the hydraulic system, and a significant decrease in working pressure of -25,86%. The operational impacts include the occurrence of steering gear failure alarms, decreased hydraulic efficiency of 25.87%, and the risk of system failure that could endanger ship maneuverability. This study recommends preventive maintenance through oil quality monitoring, environmental condition control in the steering gear room, and periodic mechanical seal replacement in accordance with operational standards to maintaining optimal steering system performance.
