Design and optimization of the propulsion system is a crucial task of the ship design
process. The behaviour of the propulsion system, in transient conditions as well as in steady …

The paper describes a mathematical model for the dynamics simulation of ship propulsion
systems. The model, developed in a MATLAB-SIMULINK software environment, is structured …

One of the key issues at early design stage of a high‐speed craft is the selection and the
performance prediction of the propulsion system because at this stage only few information …

The paper describes an approach used to study the dynamic behaviour of marine
propulsion systems. The method consists of three main steps: analytical modelling of the …

The propulsion system dynamics is a key aspect of the overall behavior of a ship, for safety
as well for commercial aspects. However, despite its great importance, numerical …

This paper is to investigate the effects of nozzle geometry on the reverse thrust
characteristics under various nozzle dimensions, inlet and outlet conditions. The reverse …

In this paper a numerical model, able to describe the transient operation of the main
components of a marine propulsion plant and of the whole system is presented. The system …

This paper is to investigate the effects of nozzle geometry on reaction thrust characteristics
under various nozzle dimensions, inlet and outlet conditions. The reaction thrust formula is …
