Hi Tomi

Can you post a side view so I can have a look at, please?

Thanks, Simon.

Cooling-water system and anti-corrosion oil-circulating system

Hi Tomi

I am trying to workout this pipe system near the bow of the engine room (Figs 1 & 2). The only system I could find that it match was the Cooling-water system and anti-corrosion oil-circulating system (Fig. 3 - Valve in red). You can see this real piping and valve in (Fig. 4) from U-Historia.

Any thought Tomi? Do you think it part of the Cooling-water system and anti-corrosion oil-circulating system? Have you had time to add it to your 3D model yet?

Engine Offset

Hi Tomi

Just had it confirm that the offset is 1 degree from the center line and not 0.7 degree (i.e. getting farther apart as you move towards the stern).

Update: I used the wrong scale with my drawing :-( I believe the correct hatches size is 500mm x 700mm (the average was 485mm x 722mm).

I know not how it looks, I think those are
breadth metal strips on the outside site of the Tank ( As a container ) ( Look 210x24 Strip on the Tank/Hole pattern outside
) ??? ?? ?? .
Is that the view from below or from above?
Thanks for any help!

Hi Tomi

I am not 100% sure that you talking about but I think the small hole could look like these If this is not what you want to know let me know

Great drawing

Hi Tomi

Real nice!!!! Almost make me want to do my drawing in 3D

I have be looking in my books trying to found out what two long tanks that run along side the engine are use for, are they for fuel oil?

Also did you have any pictures of the Exhaust manifold?

Wires and the insulating cork

Added the wires and the insulating cork (the light brown layer next to the Pressure Hull)

Yes, that is the problem I am a single interesting picture of the Auspufanlage.
It is interesting that one at all, always make the control below the exhaust
But no one makes you pictures taken above the control
Kaleun Endress has also made some pictures , one only has to look exactly
difficult to find unless one knows the area.
Do you have more pictures of the exhaust system?

Very good that you begin so that the area is still opaque to me!

I have added the wiring, the insulating cork (the light brown layer next to the Pressure Hull) and a control rod that run along the starboard Pressure Hull (I believe the control rod is for the aft hydroplane ). Pressure Hull and Ribbing are now to scale (Pressure Hull is 21 mm - because this is a Type VIIC/41) and ribbing is 200 x 70 x 11 mm.


Fig. 1. Top view - Starboard only.


Fig. 2. Side view - Port - Pressure Hull, Ribbing and Plate Steel (Not to scale - yet )
