Ships and marine technology — Guidelines on vibration isolation design methods for shipboard auxiliary machinery

The purpose of ISO 20154:2017 is to provide general guidelines on the design of ship vibration isolation based on the basic methodology of vibration isolation for shipboard machinery, for example, auxiliary engine, compressor, fan, pump, etc. A well-designed vibration isolation system can significantly reduce the vibration transmission from shipboard machinery to ship structures lowering the noise level onboard the ship or the underwater noise radiated from the ship.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Introduction
This document has been developed in response to the demand, noted by the International Maritime
Organization (IMO) and its Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC), for an International
Standard on reduction of vibration and noise from machinery onboard ships, considering the negative
effects of ship vibration and noise on the health of seafarers and the negative effects of underwater
noise radiated from ships on marine life.
The reduction of ship vibration and noise may necessitate machinery vibration isolation measures.
Although marine machinery vibration isolation design can be done by professional groups, such as
consultant companies, with the development of modern shipbuilding technology, the integration of
various technical fields for ship design is becoming a necessity.
The ship designers themselves should also understand the procedures, requirements and basic
methodology of vibration isolation for shipboard machinery. The purpose of developing a basic
methodology in this document is not limited to better vibration isolation measures, but to help ship
designers take into account the need of machinery vibration isolation, planning for the space and
weight for machinery vibration isolation in advance at the design stage and to consequently promote
the application of vibration isolation design technology onboard.
Vibration isolation concerns the use of comparatively resilient elements called vibration isolators.
Practical vibration isolators usually consist of springs, of elastomeric elements with damping or of a
combination of these. The primary purpose of isolators is to attenuate the transmission of vibrations,
whereas the main purpose of dampers is the dissipation of mechanical energy. Simple models based
on systems with a single degree of freedom are useful for establishing some fundamental relations,
such as single-stage isolation. Extensions of these models can account for the non-rigidity of supports
and isolated items, as well as for reaction effects on vibration sources. More complex models apply
to two-stage isolation that can provide greater attenuation than single-stage isolation systems. As
common measures onboard a ship, single-stage and double-stage vibration isolation design methods
are suggested in this document.

4 Basic requirements of vibration isolation system design
4.1 Vibration isolation performance
The design of vibration isolation should meet the requirements of vibration isolation performance and
avoid resonance according to the structural dynamic characteristics of the ship structure including
machinery foundation. The choice of vibration isolation type depends on the vibration levels difference
between shipboard machinery and ship structure, as well as the limit of weight and space onboard the
ship. The design requirements on the limit of the ship structure vibration response in ISO 20283-5 and
relevant ship specifications can be referred to.
In general, the effect of vibration reduction can reach more than 15 dB when the single-stage vibration
isolation is adopted and reach 25 dB to 30 dB when the double-stage vibration isolation is adopted.
Especially for the double-stage vibration isolation, transmissibility of the isolation system varies
with different intermediate mass values. The heavier the intermediate mass block is, the better the
vibration reduction effect is. Design of the weight of the intermediate mass block depends on the
weight restriction and vibration reduction requirement. Meanwhile, the advantage of introducing the
intermediate mass block is more obvious in the high-frequency range.
4.2 Vibration severity of machinery
The vibration response of mechanical machinery will be enhanced after elastic installation. When the
value of the machinery vibration severity is large, it is easier to cause fatigue damage of machinery and
to reduce the reliability of machinery operation. Therefore, machinery that is installed resiliently should
meet the requirements of the vibration limits of machinery according to the product specification or
ISO 10816.
4.3 Stability of machinery
Machinery installed resiliently should be ensured to work normally under conditions of machinery
rocking by ship motion, such as yawing, rolling and pitching. Limiters can be mounted in combination
with the vibration isolators to prevent the maximum displacement of any flexible joints isolating the
system from exceeding the permissible value.
4.4 Environmental adaptability
Vibration isolation elements shall meet the requirements of marine products and be approved by the
related administrator after inspection.
4.5 Ease of installation and maintenance
The vibration isolation system of shipboard machinery shall meet the requirements of space and weight
for maintenance and machinery reinstallation of isolation elements. The specifications of vibration
isolation elements should be universal for the convenience of maintenance.
