ERSにおける動力負荷特性の重要性

抄録

  The pursuit of realism in the ERS environment is progressing with ICT development. On the other hand, there is no discussion focused on reproducibility that includes comprehensive load side characteristics, such as propeller characteristics through the shaft system and hull resistance characteristics, which is one of important knowledge requirements specified in IMO Model Course 2.07. In this report, the author focuses on load side characteristics in ERS performance in order to make clear typical challenges facing ERS, advance marine engineer training and promote research and development related to ship engine operation management, all of which are rarely considered in the current general ERS.

  In this report, the author introduces the results of an experiment based on actual ship measurements and numerical simulations regarding the reproducibility of the power load characteristics while promoting greater awareness of the issue raised in this paper. The author hopes for wider use and development of ERS that considers the importance of power load characteristics and more robust discussions on improving the ERS environment.
