抄録

At the Eighth ME Salon on 29 October 2021, the author delivered a lectured entitled "Looking Back on My Career as Marine Engineer for Nearly 39 Years", and shared some impressive experiences about marine engineering tasks on a mother ship, freezing carriers and training ships. This paper extracts some episodes from this lecture and presents operational problems the author encountered with a double-acting diesel engine and single-acting uniflow diesel engines. It also covers operational failures the author experienced on a new freezing carrier and freezing carriers powered by low quality marine fuel oil. The purpose of this paper is to transfer knowledge and technology to younger generations, and this is in line with the main goal of the ME Salon.
