The requirements of this Chapter are applicable to the design and
construction philosophy for gas turbine packages for main propulsion and, where powers
exceed 110 kW, to those for services being provided by Mobility systems or Ship Type
systems.
This Chapter details the requirements for subsystems
and equipment within the boundary of the gas turbine package for either
a direct mechanical drive installation or an integrated electrical
power generation system.
Approval will be in respect of the mechanical
integrity of the gas turbine (including gas generator and power turbine),
intake and exhaust ducting configuration, acoustic enclosure configuration
(where appropriate), fuel, lubricating oil and starter systems, control,
monitoring, alert and safety systems, and other critical support systems.
The gas turbine bare engine is to be designed
and manufactured in accordance with a relevant International or National
Standard acceptable to Lloyd’s Register (hereinafter referred
to as ‘LR’).
