Humanoid Team Leader @ ITAndroids | Aerospace Engineer

It's hot, isn't it? During my internship at PRIO I had contact with engineering in practice. One of those most interesting moments was when I visited the engine room of a platform supply vessel (PSV). This is a vessel specially designed to supply offshore oil and gas platforms and other offshore installations. During the instruction I realized in practice one of the biggest challenges of a engine room: thermal control. In aerospace engineering, thermal control of satellites and rockets is very important, as very high or very low temperatures could damage or reduce the performance of the equipment. In space it is very difficult to correct a temperature problem and therefore temperature control systems need to be thoroughly tested on earth. Similarly, at sea correcting a temperature problem is a challenge and that is why rooms like this on a ship need to be very well developed on land. #engineering #temperature #technology #ship #vessel #aerospace #thermalcontrol #machine
