The new test method requires a controlled spillage of the mooring line on the capstan head as it continues to rotate. A key component of this evaluation is the control and monitoring of heat produced by friction. Code 246 Assistant Chief Test Engineer Josh Lundeen is seen here using an infrared thermometer to monitor surface temperatures to determine if and when cooling water would be required.
