Fig. 7 The Engine Room Design with "Stand by" Reserve Propulsion and "Stand by" Reserve Steering
Well, what really new does this paper bring?
- the possibility of the prime movers energy sources unification is noted;
- the cargo and the ballast system integration is pointed out;
- the possibility of partial (in "stand by" configuration) or complete integration of the cargo system into the system for propulsion is pointed out;
- the propulsion unit placing inside the tubular arrangement possibility and its influence to the efficiency of the propulsion is initiated;
- the method of the technical problem analysis, and the solution synthesis Belak [1] application is pointed out.
The first collateral, but not less significant contribution of this paper is the definition of the research direction to the propulsion efficiency increment based on tubular propulsion arrangement. The basic idea of the research direction is decreasing of the energy loss contained in the output water jet in tubular arrangement of propulsion unit.
The second collateral contribution of this paper is the presentation of "The Method Analysis and Synthesis of Technical Problem Solution" presented in Belak [1] and applied in Belak [4], Belak [5] and Belak [6].
