CPP Rudder Propeller Device Arrangement of a Platform Supply Vessel
CPP Azimuth rudder propeller is a new Z-type transmission device with controllable pitch propeller(CPP).All thrust of CPP propeller can act in any direction,so as to obtain the best match of propulsion direction and thrust,thus completely changing the traditional ship propulsion mode,greatly improving the maneuverability and mobility of ships,and having stronger applicability and better market.This article presents the shafting layout and design of a 57 m offshore platform supply ship,and structural characteristics&performance of its CPP Azimuth rudder propeller propulsion as well as its application in offshore platforms,and optimizes the shafting layout according to the ship's requirements,which is satisfied with the requirements of maneuverability and manipulation of this type of ships.
