SEAJOULE DEVELOPMENTS

The Seajoule package comprises an exhaust gas heat recovery boiler and a steam turboalternator arranged in a fully-automatic system. In addition, the boiler may be oil-fired both for use in port or to supplement the heat available in the main engine exhaust gases at manoeuvring speeds. Apart from supplying all on-board electrical requirements, surplus electric power can be applied to assist propulsion of the vessel by powering an auxiliary propeller, designed by Stone Manganese Marine or, in a geared medium-speed diesel installation by powering a propulsion motor coupled to the main reduction gearbox.
