BASIC GUIDELINES FOR PERFORMANCE MONITORING OF SHIPBOARD MACHINERY

This report provides the necessary basic guidelines to conduct an effective Shipboard Machinery Performance Monitoring Program. Such a program will develop a propulsion and auxiliary machinery monitoring system capable of providing, via central processor, to the Watch Supervisor, information on machinery operational status and machinery maintenance requirements. An annotated bibliography of feasible monitoring techniques and related literature is included. (Author)
