A CONCEPT DESIGN OF DIESEL – HYDRAULIC PROPULSION SYSTEM FOR PASSENGER SHIP INTENDED FOR INLAND SHALLOW WATER NAVIGATION

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of environmental and technical conditions necessary for working out a possibly most favourable propulsion system for a two – segment passenger ship intended for navigation between Berlin and Kaliningrad. There are presented various types of propulsion systems for small ships as well as analyzed their possible applications and consequences. In this work there were taken into account system’s reliability, efficiency, dimensions, mass and costs of manufacturing, assembling and possible replacing the system components as well as an impact on maneuverability and natural environment. With taking into account the above mentioned criteria it was finally found that the diesel-hydraulic system fitted with two azimuthal ducted solid propellers is the most favourable. There are also presented a schematic propulsion and control diagram, three-dimensional arrangement drawing of system components as well as assembly drawing of the designed azimuthal propulsion system.

Keywords:

ship propulsion systems, hydraulic drive and control, azimuthal propulsion systems
