Book excerpt: Originally printed in 1946, The Fleet Type Submarine series of technical manuals remains unparalleled. Contained in its pages and those of the companion texts are descriptions of every operating component aboard a fleet boat. Air Systems, Navpers 16164, was originally written to acquaint submarine crews with the submarine¿s compressed air system. This vital system provides the hydraulic system with pressure, discharges torpedoes, blows tanks and maintains trim, and even provides the oxygen used to start the main diesel engines. The book explores all five air systems on a fleet boat. It offers explanatory text and numerous, detailed diagrams.Originally classified ¿Restricted¿, this book was recently declassified and is here reprinted in book form.

Download or read book Submarine HVAC Systems written by Charles Nehme and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-01-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Submarines, those marvels of engineering that traverse the depths of the ocean, are environments of extremes. The constant pressure, the lack of sunlight, and the frigid temperatures pose significant challenges to maintaining a habitable environment for the crew. This is where the art and science of submarine HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) come into play. HVAC systems for submarines are not mere luxuries; they are essential life support systems. They regulate the temperature, humidity, and air quality within the submarine, ensuring that the crew can perform their duties effectively and safely. These systems must operate reliably and efficiently, even in the most challenging conditions. This book delves into the intricate world of HVAC for submarines, providing a comprehensive overview of the systems, technologies, and challenges involved. It explores the design considerations, operational principles, and maintenance requirements of various HVAC components, from chilled water systems to oxygen generators. The book also delves into the latest advancements in submarine HVAC technology, highlighting the development of new refrigerants, energy-efficient solutions, and advanced automation systems. Case studies illustrate the practical application of these technologies and highlight the lessons learned from real-world submarine operations. As submarine technology continues to evolve, so too does the demand for ever more efficient, reliable, and sustainable HVAC systems. This book serves as a valuable resource for engineers, naval architects, submarine operators, and anyone seeking to understand the intricacies of HVAC in the harsh environment of the underwater world.
Download or read book Review of Submarine Escape Action Levels for Selected Chemicals written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-02-04 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On-board fires can occur on submarines after events such as collision or explosion. These fires expose crew members to toxic concentrations of combustion products such as ammonia, carbon monoxide, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen sulfide. Exposure to these substances at high concentrations may cause toxic effects to the respiratory and central nervous system; leading possible to death. T protect crew members on disabled submarines, scientists at the U.S. Navy Health Research Center's Toxicology Detachment have proposed two exposure levels, called submarine escape action level (SEAL) 1 and SEAL 2, for each substance. SEAL 1 is the maximum concentration of a gas in a disabled submarine below which healthy submariners can be exposed for up to 10 days without encountering irreversible health effects while SEAL 2 the maximum concentration of a gas in below which healthy submariners can be exposed for up to 24 hours without experiencing irreversible health effects. SEAL 1 and SEAL 2 will not impair the functions of the respiratory system and central nervous system to the extent of impairing the ability of crew members in a disabled submarine to escape, be rescued, or perform specific tasks. Hoping to better protect the safety of submariners, the chief of the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery requested that the National Research Council (NRC) review the available toxicologic and epidemiologic data on eight gases that are likely to be produced in a disabled submarine and to evaluate independently the scientific validity of the Navy's proposed SEALs for those gases. The NRC assigned the task to the Committee on Toxicology's (COT's) Subcommittee on Submarine Escape Action Levels. The specific task of the subcommittee was to review the toxicologic, epidemiologic, and related data on ammonia, carbon monoxide, chlorine, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide in order to validate the Navy's proposed SEALs. The subcommittee also considered the implications of exposures at hyperbaric conditions and potential interactions between the eight gases. Review of Submarine Escape Action Levels for Selected Chemicals presents the subcommittee's findings after evaluation human data from experimental, occupational, and epidemiologic studies; data from accident reports; and experimental-animal data. The evaluations focused primarily on high-concentration inhalation exposure studies. The subcommittee's recommended SEALs are based solely on scientific data relevant to health effects. The report includes the recommendations for each gas as determined by the subcommittee as well as the Navy's original instructions for these substances.
