Predicting Ship Stopping Distances for Modern Ship Propulsion Architectures

When:  Oct 21, 2021 from 06:00 PM to 07:00 PM (ET)

Title: Predicting Ship Stopping Distances for Modern Ship Propulsion Architectures

The Massachusetts Maritime Academy chapter of SNAME will be hosting a webinar by Rolls Royce Marine of North America, Thursday, October 21st

1800-1900 hrs. in Flanagan Hall. This In-Person event is open to vaccinated New England SNAME members with proof of vaccination.

Abstract:

Stopping distance predictions will be presented for a nominal ship design with different propulsion architectures.  These propulsion architectures include both electric drive and controllable pitch propellers.  The large contrast in stopping distance will allow naval architects to better understand how propulsion system architecture influences stopping distance.  To fully understand these calculations the control loop of a controllable pitch propeller in a crash back scenario will be covered.
