SETS (Seafarer Evaluation Training System) Test Online for Seamen on EO8: Main Propulsion Turbines and Boilers

Join Our Telegram (Seaman Community)

Welcome to the website where you can pass online the Seafarer Evaluation Training System (SETS) test on «Main Propulsion Turbines and Boilers». Practice like this will help you as a marine specialist improve your knowledge with the help of online studying and appraisal practice. SETS based on practical information and marine specialists experience.

SETS tests developed for evaluating seaman basic knowledge by company “Naval Education Services” is an evaluating online-tool, used for revealing any professional preparation needed in specific fields of knowledge, defined by STCW Section A-V/1-2.

SETS tests have proven themselves as good tools for the selection and recruitment process, as well as advancing the level of knowledge of the current officers and crew.

Current test contains SETS questions in area «Main Propulsion Turbines and Boilers». Those questions can be used for competence verification specialist capable of preventing accidental situations related with transporting safety, or also for self-examination.

«Main Propulsion Turbines and Boilers» subject includes theoretical and practical information about advanced training for work on any type of vessel. The test comprehensively evaluates knowledge of steam turbine operational principles and boiler thermodynamics. A significant portion focuses on troubleshooting scenarios for common malfunctions in main propulsion plants. Candidates must demonstrate an understanding of boiler water treatment, combustion control and safety system management. Several questions require the analysis of system diagrams, including feedwater circuits and steam flow paths to the turbines. The examination assesses the ability to correctly sequence the startup and shutdown procedures for a marine boiler. Knowledge of emergency protocols for situations like a loss of vacuum or a boiler furnace flame failure is rigorously tested. Practical calculations, such as determining boiler efficiency or turbine specific steam consumption, form a key part of the assessment. Successfully passing this test verifies the competency required to operate and maintain propulsion machinery on any type of vessel.

On this site SETS on the subject «Main Propulsion Turbines and Boilers» contains 24 questions you need to answer with no possibility to go back to previous question. Therefore, we recommend carefully reading each question and making decision with no hurry. In case you have some difficulty answering, you have also possibility to request a hint.
