Title:
METHOD FOR CHECKING FUEL REDUCTION AMOUNT BY UNDERWATER MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT OF SHIP PROPELLER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/048849
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the invention is to provide a method which reduces fuel consumption and carbon dioxide discharge by performing propeller maintenance management without docking a ship in service. In this regard, there is disclosed a method for checking the amount of fuel reduced as a result of underwater propeller maintenance management such that fuel is reduced by implementing a propeller maintenance management means for performing operations wherein the roughness of a propeller is periodically measured under water without docking a ship in service and wherein, if the roughness is unsatisfactory, underwater polishing work is carried out to keep the propeller in a satisfactory state. The method for checking the amount of fuel reduced is such that various data regarding operation and propeller stains while in service are incorporated into a computer program for checking a fuel reduction amount, resulting in the fuel reduction amount being permitted to be checked.
