@serhiibondarenko19: How a Steam Turbine LNG Vessel Works 1️⃣ The boiler burns boil-off gas (from LNG tanks) or fuel oil. Water inside is heated and turns into superheated steam (about 515°C, 5.8 MPa). 2️⃣ The steam flows into the steam turbine, expanding over the blades and making the turbine shaft rotate. Through a gearbox, this power drives the propeller. ⚓🚢 3️⃣ After leaving the turbine, the steam goes to the condenser, where seawater cools it back into water. 4️⃣ This water is pumped back to the boiler — creating a closed Rankine cycle. 🔄 ✨ Key points: • Fuel: mainly boil-off gas from the LNG cargo tanks. • Reliable and simple design, but efficiency is lower than modern dual-fuel engines.#marineengineer #lngvessel #seafarerslife #shipengineering #EngineRoomLife
