Ship Energy Efficiency

Increasing Fuel need Increasingly high Fuel cost Accumulatively strict IMO rules EEDI energy efficiency design index EEOI energy efficiency operational indicator SEEMP Ship energy efficiency management plan Come into force soon!

Ship Energy Efficiency

Many SEEMP already exists,

e.g., ABB EMMA system

A simple but efficient tool is still needed to represent the energy distribution
and consumption throughout the entire ship

Methodology for the simulator

A general simulation tool for ship power plant To be modelled at a system level, not to represent every detail All main sub-systems included DG sets and electrical systems Engine, generator, propulsion, engine room, hotel, theater, Engine Fresh Cooling Water systems HT & LT LT Auxliary Fresh Cooling Water systems LT propulsion Fresh Cooling Water systems Steam powered systems EGE, OFB, steam drum, pump,

The simulated processes simplified electrical processes

The simulated processes simplified heat processes

Domains and their component libraries

Different physical interactions are modelled in DOMAINS in Simscape Domains involved in the simulator modelling Mechanical domain (, ) To model the DG sets

Thermal domain ( , ) To model the heat exchanging process

Electrical AC domain ( , ) To model the electrical systems

Thermal fluid domain ( , , , ) To model the HT and LT systems Steam domain ( , , , ) To model the steam powered systems

Component libraries for each self-developed domain

Engine, generator, pump, thermostat, evaporator, boiler,

Model validation First results

Partial validation only A large bunch of real-world data is needed for validation Extremely difficult to get the data needed, as predicted in the initial plan Some reasonable assumption based on the avaliable data

The available data from a case ship Full data for Electrical AC system Main data for HT FCW system Partial data for STEAM system LT AUX and POD FCW systems
