6.5 Match the English and Russian words and word combinations.

1. in general a) ,
2. to deal with b)
3. profound knowledge c)
4. complex problems d)
5. meet requirements e)

6.6 Read and translate the text. Answer the questions: What functional duties do engineers have to do? What requirements should an engineer meet?

WHAT IS ENGINEERING

In general, engineering is a science that deals with design, construction and operation of structures, machines, engines and other devices. An engineer is a person who has higher technical education. An engineer should have profound knowledge in his branch and a basic knowledge in some other fields as engineering problems are complex and interrelated. The word engineering has a lot of meanings and can be translated into Russian in many ways.

6.7 Match the English and Russian words and word combinations.

1. machinery of all types a) ,
2. is divided into b)
3. field c)
4. machine-tools d) , (, )
5. machine design e)
6. to make products f)

6.8 Read the text and answer the questions. What do mechanical engineers do? In what spheres should mechanical engineers have profound knowledge?

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

Engineers in this field design, build, test and operate machinery of all types. The field is divided into:

1) machine-tools, mechanisms, materials, hydraulics and pneumatics;

2) work and energy, heating, ventilation and air conditioning.

A mechanical engineer must be trained in mechanics and hydraulics, metallurgy and machine design. A mechanical engineer designs not only the machines that make products but the products themselves.

6.9 Read and translate the text. Answer the questions: What do engineers design and supervise? What requirements should newly built ships meet? Why should naval architects have profound knowledge of higher mathematics?

repair
construction of ships  
stability  
strength  
floatability  
reliability  
determine  
shape   ,
hull structure  
ship hull  
welding  
intended for them  
principal dimensions   ,

Naval ENGINEERING

Naval architects are engineers who design and supervise the construction of ships and ship repair. Ships must be designed to meet certain requirements such as stability, strength, floatability, reliability and many others in order to perform the type of work intended for them. Naval architects determine the shape and principal dimensions of the ship. They also carry out research work and develop calculating methods of strength and optimal parameters of the ship structure, noise reduction of the ship hull and machinery. Naval architects must be familiar with the variety of techniques in modern shipbuilding. They develop basic technologies; supervise welding operations and installation of equipment.

6.10 Match the English and Russian words and word combinations.

1) supervise a)
2) to carry out research work b)
3) calculating methods c) ,
4) optimal parameters d)
5) noise reduction e)
6) variety of techniques f)
7) basic technologies g)
8) welding operations h)
9) installation of equipment i) , ,

6.11 Study the words and word combinations on the text.

ship power plant
steam turbine
gas turbine
diesel engine
nuclear power plant
ship internal combustion engine
steam generator
mounting , ,
control ,
fuel consumption

6.12 Read and translate the text.

Marine ENGINEERING

Marine engineering is a special branch of mechanical engineering. Engineers in this field work at designing, mounting and control of ship power plants of all types (steam and gas turbines, diesel engines, nuclear and electrical power plants). They also design and investigate different types of ship engines and machinery such as ship internal combustion engines, steam generators etc., as well as technological processes of their building, mounting and operation.

Marine engineers work at designing and producing systems of power plants and information measuring complexes. Marine automation is the automatic control of shipboard systems and processes. Automatic control of a ship power plant and engine room equipment has great advantages. It increases safety of a ship power plant, reduces fuel consumption and personnel, and achieves high efficiency of the plant operation.

6.13 Match the English and Russian words and word combinations.

1. special branch a) -
2. mounting and control b)
3. investigate c)
4. ship engines and machinery d)
5. information measuring complexes e)
6. shipboard systems f)
7. engine room equipment g) ()
8. great advantages h)
9. safety i) ,
10. high efficiency j)
11. plant operation k)
