the wind and current being favourable.
the wind and current holding the vessel back.
poor combustion due to malfunction of fuel valves.
the viscosity of the fuel being high.

What important contribution does Nitrogen have to the combustion process in a Diesel engine?

Acts as a catalyst to the combining of oxygen and the hydrocarbons.
Prevents the deposition of damaging elements on valves and seats.
Assists in the cooling process during combustion.

A two stroke diesel with uniflow scavenging.
A two stroke diesel with piston underside scavenging.
A two stroke diesel with spiral scavenging.

The fuel delivery pipe between fuel pump and injector, is shown here as a red interrupted line. For ' UMS ' classed vessel, how is this pipe best described ?

It must be provided with sensors so that the corresponding fuel pump cuts out in case of rupture.
It needs to be a shielded pipe so that in case of rupture the fuel leakage can be contained and the alarm sounded.
It is manufactured of high tensile steel and has to have thermal insulation fitted.
It is manufactured from Austenit Steel and has flame/smoke detectors fitted in the vicinity.
