Specific features of naval fuel oil use on the ships of the navy
The article compares the advantages and disadvantages of naval fuel oil and diesel fuel - the two main types of oil fuel on naval ships with boilers and boiler units. The ways to mitigate the disadvantages of naval fuel oil through the development and application of new methods for controlling its quality and the use of low-sulfur naval fuel oil are shown. Taking into account the presented ways to mitigate the disadvantages of naval fuel oil, it is proposed to use naval fuel oil as the main fuel for the main and reserve boiler-turbine propulsion plants of new projects of Navy surface ships of the 1st rank, including those with electric propulsion
