Electromagnetic Interference

It is probable that most people at one time or another will have experienced the effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI), in the form of interference patterns across the TV screen or crackle on radio broadcasts. On the fishing vessel, the scanning radio locking onto non-existent transmissions or the auto pilot suddenly going haywire, and many other unaccountable equipment malfunctions are all probably the result of EMI. The interference at the least is a minor annoyance or at the worst a serious disruption to the operation of navigation and radio communications, and consequently a danger to the security of the vessel and crew. The increased use of electronic and electrical equipment in fishing vessels, has substantially increased the likelihood of interference occurring. It is therefore essential that the fishing vessels of the future have electromagnetically compatible, electronic/electrical installations EMC. Propagation Interference may be propagated in two ways. a) RADIATED from the source to the affected equipment by non-metallic paths. b) CONDUCTED carried from the source to the affected equipment by metallic paths, including cables, vessel superstructure, hand rails, stays etc. Electromagnetic Interference on Fishing Vessels EMI - is defined as any electromagnetic disturbance which interrupts, obstructs, or otherwise degrades or limits the effective performance of electrical and electronic equipment. EMC - Electromagnetic Compatibility is defined as the condition in which systems work as intended, both within themselves and their environment.

Noise Reduction Measures in Flume Tank

An investigation was launched into methods of reducing noise levels from the flume tank pump room following complaints by some users that noise levels were a source of annoyance. An assessment of the noise transmission modes was made and a method proposed for attenuating the noise levels. The method was applied to one pump to check its effectiveness and the attenuation achieved is reported here. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish.
