Abstract Polar marine machinery is an important equipment for China to participate in Arctic energy exploitation. The Arctic region is rich in natural resources and has a very important strategic position. As an important equipment for passage and exploitation of energy, its key technology is particularly important. As a special ship sailing in polar regions, polar ships generally adopt electric heat tracing measures due to the adverse environment in polar regions. The deck machinery and facilities shall be protected against cold. This paper mainly studies the convection of flat plate members under constant heat flow electric heating. The research results can be popularized and applied to the cold protection of most upper facilities of polar ships.
