STATE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

M.C.R AND C.S.R RATINGS

.
 CSR is service continuous
rating and it is used to. describe the speed and
specific fuel or the daily fuel consumption of
the ship and its engine when cruising at the co
ntinuous service speed.
MCR is maximum continuous rating and is used
for describing the specific fuel consumption or
the daily fuel consumption when the ship
is cruising at maximum speed.
For the propulsion engine the speed and engine
load are same or corresponding
and hence these ratings. The ship is always
operating at service speed. The maximum
rating is given to express its reserve power.
