Analysis and Comparison of Ship Propulsion Systems

One of the highest cost of building the ship refers to the ship’s propulsion system. It is therefore very important to know all the types and specificities of propulsion systems for the optimal selection. This paper presents the conventional and the combined propulsion systems, where are briefly given their characteristics and specificities. Special attention is given to the combined propulsion systems, whose extensive use is still under expectation. At the end, the paper discusses the cost calculation of a marine propulsion system of selected passenger cruiser and comparison to the possible alternative system.
