About this document
Fuel Consumption Model for Ships by faraday is a document available to read on EtoBox.
- The document presents a mathematical model for calculating fuel consumption of a vessel during a voyage accounting for real weather conditions. - The model considers the total resistance of the ship from calm water resistance as well as additional resistance from wind, waves, currents and rudder movements. It then calculates the operating speed and point based on balancing total resistance and propeller thrust. - Fuel consumption is calculated based on the specific fuel consumption characteristics of
