Marine Engineering Final Year Topic: Investigation of Ship Ventilation Duct Distribution

This Marine Engineering final year project examines balancing airflow among fictional machinery-space branches, using a fictional civilian vessel model, permitted teaching dataset or non-operational information-system prototype.

Why choose this project topic?

The topic addresses balancing airflow among fictional machinery-space branches, a focused marine-engineering problem with identifiable assumptions and outputs. Comparing branch flow, pressure loss and fan power estimate helps a student connect calculations or software behaviour to a practical vessel-system question while discussing the limits of the evidence.

How do the selected marine-system assumptions affect branch flow, pressure loss and fan power estimate when balancing airflow among fictional machinery-space branches?

Choose a documented teaching model, synthetic vessel case or permitted dataset, then agree the parameter ranges and comparison method for balancing airflow among fictional machinery-space branches.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the civilian teaching system, data and assumptions required for balancing airflow among fictional machinery-space branches.
  2. 02Model a bounded duct network, compare balancing assumptions and inspect fan demand under restricted branches.
  3. 03Compare branch flow, pressure loss and fan power estimate and document uncertainty and limits on operational interpretation.

A suggested research approach

Model a bounded duct network, compare balancing assumptions and inspect fan demand under restricted branches. Use no live vessel controls and confirm permission for every dataset. Record units and system boundaries, check conservation or reference behaviour, then evaluate branch flow, pressure loss and fan power estimate without treating a successful simulation as certification of real equipment.

What you will need

  • Fictional duct layout
  • Airflow modelling software
  • Documented resistance data

Keep your project scope clear

The model does not establish ventilation compliance or safe atmospheres in enclosed spaces.
