| D E Propulsion
We can see that DE Propulsion is the future.
All stements are positive but where is the problem that this is not installed
in more Yachts ?
There must be a negative reason.
1. You could use 4 - XX units of the same generator modell
this saves Engineering Crew and less different spare parts.
2. If one or more of the units are not in use you can maintain and check
them but the yacht is ready to go ( with less speed )
3. You could install the units allover the Yacht also in areas normally
used for storage
4. All generators can run in the most efficient speed all the time
This saves full and you get less pollution.
5. You can plan or design always the same engine room with less or more gensets
for the maximum power you need.
6. I think it is possible to create a star shaped installation for all gens to use only
1 exhaust for all.
7. The eletrical power on board is high enough that you dont have to
install any Hydraulic driven parts ?
8. You dont have to install any rudder when using pods ( Azipod )
9. You can switch or steer the pods directly in reverse mode and
the result is less braking distance
10. You can drive from with 0.5 knots without any redunance gears and full
steering power
11. The emergency gensets in the bow could enable you to drive your
ship in safe haven ?
Now i wait for the negative statements to discuss here.
