    b. Lubrication of equipment during tests is to be similar to the installed onboardarrangements.

    c. The test rig is to simulate the associated system so that all functions are subjectto operational conditions unless otherwise approved.

    d. Ancillary equipment, eg starter and cut-out switches, is to be the same as thatused in service when available. Where not available slave equipment may beused.

    e. Services to be provided by the contractor or test establishment are to includeelectricity, water, drainage and air supplies.

    f. Consumable materials can be obtained from Naval Stores andmay include fuel,oil and refrigerant.

    g. When fuel has been supplied from other than MOD sources, a sample is to besent to the Superintendent, Naval Petroleum Chemistry and TechnologyDivision, Royal Aircraft Establishment, Fairmile, Cobham, Surrey KT11 1B5for determination of the calorific value.

    h. Instrumentation is to be fitted to record each parameter including quantity offlow, temperatures and pressures, and these are to be measured at each pointwhere there is significant variation. Additionally the speed (and torque whereappropriate) are to be measured and recorded from any output shaft.

    i. The instrumentation is to be of sufficient accuracy to enable significantvariations to be noted. This is to include a high degree of sensitivity and a rapidresponse to fluctuations. A sensitivity of 1% of the maximum scale valuethroughout the anticipated range is the minimum acceptable recording level.

    j. All instruments are to be calibrated prior to the type test and selectedinstruments calibrated after the test. Instruments used for Production Testingare to be calibrated periodically in accordance with AQAP6.

    k. Safety precautions are to be in accordance with current requirements.

    Note: In general with test facilities, it is also advisable that an equipment istested in conjunction with the specific item(s) with which it will beassociated on the ship whenever the performance of the associated unitsis likely to affect the primary equipment. For example, experience hasshown that it is essential that prototype tests on auxiliary boilers arecarried out using the distilling plant appropriate to the ship fit.

  • NES 362Issue 3 (Reformatted)

    2.4

    c. Before equipment is type tested a record is to be made by direct measurementof the dimensions of wearing parts and clearances, unless these dimensions areavailable from themanufacturing records of the equipment. See Examinationsfor Wear, Clause 2.3n.

    d. All protective devices are to be tested to establish satisfactory operation. Teststo establish actuation speeds, pressures and temperatures are to be repeated notless than 5 times and each result recorded. Where appropriate, rapid variationsof speed or pressure are to be imposed to establish the time response of thesystem.

    (1) Relief valve: test to establish the pressures at which the relief valve lifts,is fully open and reseats, also establish the flow when fully open andconfirm that the valve is tight at design working pressure before liftingand after reseating, and establish accumulation pressure.

    (2) Overspeed emergency trip of rotating machinery:

    (a) demonstrate that trip operates within the following limits:

    Diesel engines Approved trip speed +0, 2%

    Other units bothelectrical and mechanical

    Approved trip speed +2%, 2%

    (b) demonstrate hand operation and resetting of trip.

    (3) Lubricating oil failure emergency trip: demonstrate actuation of the tripat the pre-set pressure and record pressure.

    (4) High temperature emergency trip: demonstrate actuation of the trip atthe pre-set temperature and record temperature.

    Note: Turbo-generators and main turbines as fitted in submarines have avacuum trip arrangement.

    e. Control equipment and governor operational tests: each control device is to betested to establish satisfactory operation over the full range of control. It is tobe demonstrated that the control device can cope with the most severe single orcyclic signal variation that is specified.

    f. Overspeed tests:

    (1) Diesel and Petrol Engines

    On completion of the performance tests, the overspeed trip is to berendered inoperative and the engine run for a period of 15 minutes at aspeed which is either 20% in excess of its nominal full speed or is 5% ofnominal speed greater than the overspeed trip setting, the greater of thesetwo being used. If these requirements are not permissible the actualoverspeed percentage is to be agreed with the engine manufacturerdepending on application. The engine is to be run on no-load and the speedat which this test is run is to be recorded. The overspeed trip is to be resetand retested after this overspeed test is completed.

    Note: It can be detrimental to run a diesel in an overspeed condition for aprolonged period. DEF STAN 0755 or the relevant NES provide guidesto acceptable vibration limits.

  • NES 362Issue 3 (Reformatted)

    2.5

    (2) Gas Turbines

    For each gas turbine driven auxiliary the output turbine disconnectedfrom the dynamometer or auxiliary, is to be run at not less than 15% inexcess of the maximum continuous speed or 5% above the approvedoverspeed emergency trip speed, whichever is the greater, for not less than10 minutes continuously. Where engines have a separate gas generatorline the gas generator is to be run at not less than 10% in excess of the gasgenerator speed corresponding with the maximum specified duty for notless than 10 minutes continuously.

    Notes:

    1. It may be neither practical nor permissible to run the gas turbine drivenauxiliary at these speeds and the actual permitted percentage overspeedto be used for this test is to be agreed with the turbine or auxiliarymanufacturer.

    2. Turbo feed-pumps, turbo generators and main turbines, as fitted insubmarines, have emergency overspeed trip arrangements.

    g. Performance characteristic tests: each equipment is to be tested to establish itsconsumption and output over the full range of operating conditions, includingthe performance characteristics defined in the instructions issued byMOD(PE).During performance testing, if it is found necessary to adjust control and safetydevices, the tests specified for these are to be repeated under appropriatelyrevised conditions.

    h. Noise vibration and shock tests: to conform to NES 811, NES 20202028, DGS591, DGS 10008, DGS 10009 and BR 3021 and 3028.

    i. Air pressure tests: the airbell enclosure of an equipment which is required to betested when submerged is to be subjected to an internal air pressure prior tosubmergence. The air pressure is to be equivalent to the depth of submergenceand it is to be demonstrated by means of a sensitive gauge or manometer thatno leakage will occur during a minimum period of one hour. Suitable closureplates are to be manufactured and used as required.

    j. Submerged tests: when an equipment is to be capable of operation undersubmerged conditions, tests are to demonstrate its capability to meet therequirements. See also NES 1004.

    k. Ambient tests: when an equipment is to operate under ambient conditions, testsare to demonstrate its capability to meet the requirements. See also NES 1004.

    l. Inclined tests: tests are to demonstrate the capability of the equipment to start,stop and operate when inclined over the full range of output. Tests are normallyto be conducted at the inclination (or inclinations) in that direction whichimposes the most severe operating conditions. The length of test will be statedin the procurement specification relevant to the equipment. See also NES 1004.

  • NES 362Issue 3 (Reformatted)

    2.6

    m. Endurance tests: the equipment is to be run for a period, including all other testrunning, of not less than 100 hours or more than 1000 hours, but the MODmaychoose to extend their period if considered necessary. The running time will bedetermined having regard to experience of similar equipment, operationalrequirements of the equipment and test facilities available. The total runningtime is to be completed without mechanical defect or undue wear. During thistest a record is to be made of consumption of lubricating oil and fuel oil ifappropriate. The balance of time required to complete the endurance trial, aftercompletion of earlier type testing, is to comprise a series of operation cycles,each one to simulate that likely to be met in service and to include whereapplicable:

    (1) Starting.

    (2) Stopping.

    (3) Idling or minimum power for a defined time.

    (4) Full Power.

    (5) Rapid increases of power.

    (6) Rapid reductions of power.

    (7) Reversals of direction of rotation.

    (8) Astern power.

    (9) Operation at fractions of power ahead.

    (10) Operation at fractions of power astern.

    n. Examination forwear: on completion of type test the equipment is to be strippedand examined. All critical dimensions are to be recorded and divergence fromthe original noted. Any wear observed is to be described and recorded andphotographic records of unusual wear or defects are to be provided. MOD(PE)will advise when any particular examinations are required. Every equipmentembodying a rotor with fitted blades is to be opened up for examination of theblading after completion of the overspeed test. After refurbishing theequipment is to be subjected to production tests.

    o. Assessment of Work Content of Scheduled Maintenance Operations: facilitiesmay be required for MOD(PE) representatives to witness, during or after typetests, some or all of the scheduled maintenance operations to assess their workcontent. Obstructions to simulate space limitations around the machine in theship are to be provided.

    2.4 Results of Type Tests

    (6) Noise and vibration tests.

    (7) Air pressure tests.

    b. Where an equipment contains no moving parts, the requirements for theproduction test will be met by normal pressure testing and visual, sonic or X-rayexamination as may be considered appropriate.

    c. Safety tests are to be conducted as required for the type test excepting that thetime response of the system need not be established and relief valve flow neednot be measured.

    d. Each equipment is to be tested to establish sufficient points, includingmaximum duty points on its characteristic curves to demonstrate that itsconsumption and performance correspond with the type tested equipment.
