Awesome 👌.. does the engine run at a set speed? I know that the thrust is controlled by the hydraulic propeller pitch control but does the engine also increase/decrease RPM ?
@@T2D.SteveArcs Hi mate, yeah during the test the engine was set to -34rev/min. This vessel isn't equipped with a variable pinch propeller😄. There are different kind of governors which could be used on diesels, such as the constant speed type, constant torque type. However the main engines usually are equipped with the constant speed type to avoid the runaway in a storm. Nowadays the ME engines use E-governors which could be set to be speed or torque controlled on the computer.
