Low Temperature Performance Test of Polar Ship Windlass in the Field
In order to ensure the normal operation of outdoor deck machinery on polar ships under low temperature icing conditions and expand the time window of ship polar activity,low temperature field performance tests are conducted on windlass to complete performance tests under different environmental temperature conditions.The results indicate that temperature affects the output power and efficiency of the windlass.The performance parameters of the hydraulic system are highly sensitive to low temperatures,and the hydraulic system and transmission system exhibit strong coupling characteristics under low temperature and load changes.The influence of low temperature should be given special consideration in the design and operation of the windlass.Effective experimental detection and evaluation methods are established,which can provide guidance for the independent research and development of domestic polar deck machinery.
