Resumen

Advances in power and propulsion and energy management improvements can significantly contribute to reducing emissions. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) Marpol regulations impose increasingly stringent restrictions on ship?s emission. According to the measured data of the target ship in typical working profiles, the power fluctuation, fuel consumption and emission data are analyzed, and the result represented that there are serious fuel consumption and pollution problems in the diesel engine power system. Based on the ship-engine propeller matching design theory, the ship-engine propeller model was built, and the new propulsion system power of the target ship was obtained by simulation. From the perspectives of power, economy and green, the performance and emission indexes of diesel engine and LNG engine are compared and analyzed, and the fuel cost advantage, green advantage and power performance disadvantage of LNG engine compared with diesel engine are determined. By comparing the topological structures of different hybrid propulsion forms, the new propulsion form of the ship is improved to be the gas-electric hybrid propulsion system based on the ESS (Energy Storage System), and the selection of the supercapacitors and lithium batteries is compared. Based on the low-pass filter strategy, the power distribution of the ultracapacitor and lithium battery is distributed. In order to determine the optimal ESS configuration, a capacity configuration model with investment cost, fuel cost and energy storage life as objective functions was established. NGSA-II algorithm was used to calculate the model and scheme selection was completed based on the scheme decision model. In this case, the optimal scheme significantly reduces pollutant emissions, it also reduces daily fuel costs by 38% and the result shows that we can complete the cost recovery in 1.28 years.
