1. 1. Comparison of Achieved Fuel Savings on Ships by Different Wind Propulsion Systems Using a 3-DoF Resistance Model

   University essay from KTH/Marina system

   Author : Severi Sarsila; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to determine how different wind propulsion systems should be sized in order to achieve comparable fuel savings. The selected wind propulsion systems for the comparison are Dynarig, rigid wing sail and rotor sail. To answer this question, a performance prediction program based on a 3 Degree of Freedom resistance model was developed. READ MORE

3. 2. Efficient seakeeping performance predictions with CFD

   University essay from KTH/Marina system
