DEVELOPMENT OF PROPULSION REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR GAS TURBINE NAVAL VESSELS AND SIMULATION TESTING WITH COMPUTER

In the expectation that the COGAG propulsion system will be extensively employed in future naval vessels, IHI has developed a remote-control console, described in this article, for a four-turbine/two-shaft installation with IM2000 gas turbines. A prototype console has been tested in combination with a minicomputer-based propulsion-system simulator representing the gas turbine plant, propellers, and ship performance. In these tests, the functioning of the console and the performance of the ship were examined in various ship-manoeuvring modes; the results, which are presented and discussed, confirmed that the console was now ready for installation in a naval vessel.
