Join Industry Peers for the SNAME Pre-Conference Session at IBEX:

Design of Electric & Hybrid Propulsion Systems for Small Craft—Expanded Course

 

SNAME presents an updated seminar on designing electric and hybrid electric propulsion systems for small craft.  In response to feedback from 2023, the 2024 course will feature expanded technical content and will include a discussion of fuel cells and solar arrays as a means of improving range. There will be an emphasis on working through specific design examples.  Attendees will be expected to be familiar with some basic electric propulsion principles, such as the difference between parallel and serial hybrid systems, and the performance characteristics of different battery types. 

This full-day event is intended primarily for boatbuilders and designers of vessels under 100 feet (30m). We will cover key design principles in detail and analyze representative case studies. 

Speakers:

Dan Hanes, President at Sea3 Systems, Regional VP of SNAME, Chair of the SNAME Electric Propulsion and Controls Panel

 

Drew Orvieto, Head of Sales, North America, at ABB Marine & Ports, Chair of the SNAME Southeast Section

 

SNAME Members receive a discounted registration fee!

Join industry peers for the seminar: Hull Roughness and its Effects on Planning Boat Performance

This seminar investigates the effects of hull roughness on loss of speed at constant power. Vessel lifetime roughness profiles are postulated based on construction, coatings, and maintenance. These are utilized to determine loss of speed and change in running attitude for planing boats. The formulations are directly applicable to any planing boat for which a lifetime roughness profile is constructed as presented. The approach to developing the speed/power predictions and the roughness profile is provided. This approach can be utilized to analyze the effects of roughness due to hull material utilized and quality of construction, roughness from paints and coatings and their method of application as well as damage to the coating during maintenance, deterioration of the hull structure material, as well as biofouling influenced by the type of antifouling paint or coating and method of application. It provides a means for investigating different magnitudes and scenarios of these causes of roughness rather than providing only example results.

Speaker:

Dr. John Daidola, President and Technical Director at AENY, Life Fellow and Honorary Vice President of SNAME and  Functional VP Technical and Chair of the SNAME Technical and Research Program
