MARINE ENGINEERING
As
the name Propulsion Data Services would indicate, marine engineering
with a focus on propulsion systems is a core service.
Many
naval architectural firms and shipyard design departments use PDS's
services to examine their propulsion and mechanical systems for
possible design flaws and for optimization.
PDS does many re power projects primarily for shipyards and end users.
Re power projects typically include all system analysis requirements,
installation drawings and equipment specifications, documentation as
required by any government entities or classification societies, yard
inspections and sea trials.
PDS has extensive working knowledge of the full range of engines,
gears, propulsors and auxiliary equipment. Engine knowledge ranges from
small high speed engines to large low speed heavy fuel, gas turbines,
diesel electric and hybrid. Propulsors range from open propeller,
ducted
propeller, surface piercing and water jet to paddle wheel and sail.
Typical Marine Engineering Services
Optimization of drive lines for propulsive efficiency including
modeling and simulation
Shaft rate and blade rate whirl analysis
Shaft line lateral and axial vibration analysis
System torsional analysis
Shaft alignment optimization
Foundation structural and modal (vibration) analysis
Appendage optimization and design
Auxiliary systems design such as steering, cooling, exhaust, ventilation, piping, electrical systems etc.
Stability updates per weight and performance changes
