«Engine Management Propulsion» subject includes theoretical and practical information about safety working with electrical equipment. Knowledge of this information directly shows employee’s competence who holds a relevant post on a vessel. Propulsion is the process of powering a ship or boat through water. It involves the use of an engine or motor to generate thrust that drives the vessel forward. There are several types of vessel propulsion systems, including diesel engines, gas turbines, steam turbines, electric motors, and even wind power. The choice of propulsion system depends on factors such as the size and type of vessel, speed requirements, and environmental considerations. Some vessels also use a combination of propulsion systems, such as diesel-electric or hybrid systems, to improve efficiency and reduce emissions.
This page contains answers to Seagull CES (Crew Evaluation System) test about Engine Management Propulsion, and serve as a database of questions and answers, using which seafarer can prepare to exams for getting certificate of competence, or just to challenge yourself with knowledge in this theme.
