This article presents a comparison between the use of analytical methods and simulations for dimensioning the approach to the liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal in Świnoujście. Parameters of rectilinear sections of the fairway were obtained by analytical methods, widely used in traffic engineering. These methods are: the method of the Three Components, the Panama Canal method, the Canadian method,...
Dynamic development of Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) technology and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) software has resulted in their widespread usage in integrated systems of automation, becoming one of the main directions of ship automation. This change justifies the need to improve the training of future crews on simulators built with the use of PLC and SCADA technologies. This...
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) qualifies as sustainable and secure marine fuel that is reliable in supply. The international standards (IGF Code) and classification regulations have been aligned. First experiences in ship operations and design are now available. Initial reports from the practical ship operations show that the lack of knowledge and misjudgements of original equipment manufacturers (OEM’s),...
Existing and future regulations on ship energy efficiency and methods for their improvement are presented in this work. The design and operational features of gas-fuelled low-speed main engines, liquefied natural gas (LNG) regasification conditions, and amount of waste cold are compared. Using a simple linear regression model based on the least squares method, formulae were developed to predict the...
This study characterizes the distribution chain of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Poland, using the terminal in Świnoujście as the “source of LNG”. The focus is primarily on the possibility of LNG distribution for road transport, taking into account the effective use of its energy potential. During the transport and storage of LNG it was found that the evaporation of LNG, the so-called boil-off gas...
