Application of Wind Assisted Propulsion System in Middle Range Tanker
According to the working principles and characteristics of different types of wind assisted propulsion systems,a hard-wing sail wind assisted propulsion system was selected for research on the design of wind assistance navigation for the medium liquid cargo ship(MR type).Based on the feasibility of the MR ship type,the energy-saving effect of the sail,and the return on investment,the parameters and overall arrangement of the hard-wing sail were determined and the impact of the wind assisted propulsion system on the ship's stability,load line,total strength,outfitting,visibility of the bridge,radar blind area,and electromechanical system was analyzed.The MR ship type is sensitive to the weight and size of the hard-wing sail wind assisted propulsion system,making it difficult to apply.The framework,methods,and suggestions were provided for solving related problems with important reference values.
