“Zero emission commuter ferry to be used in Helsinki” City centre - Kruunuvuorenranta Kul , Ship Project A3 Original concept
Original specifications 150 passengers (+ 20 bicycles, wheel chair capacity etc.) Wooden catamaran Hydrogen fuel cells Service speed 15 knots 24 m long, 9 m wide, 1.15 m draught Kul , Ship Project A4 Original concept
Poorly done during concept phase Catamaran calculations Problematic Reliability of results Cavitation RPM limitation: 390 r/min Final results: Lower service speed to 13 knots 2 x 320 kW engines Kul , Ship Project A5 Resistance calculations
Small ship Emphasis on more details Passenger area done Machinery placement Other gear Kul , Ship Project A6 General arrangement
Kul , Ship Project A7
Wooden structure Own regulations Small ship Relatively easy calculations Results: The current design has all the strength it needs Kul , Ship Project A8 Structural calculations
Unconventional design Direct approach simple Weight of wood and other materials Weight of main components Passengers and cargo Final weight: 57,2 tons Comparing the results to other ships is useless The draught is similar to that of other ships of the same size Kul , Ship Project A9 Weight estimation
Vertical center of gravity High and heavy roof vs. machinery in the hulls Catamaran design helps with stability Final results: The recovering moment is much more than the needed one. Fully satisfied the requirement of DNV’s regulation for the ferry Kul , Ship Project A10 Stability
As with weight, a direct approach is best Price of materials, main components, other Final cost: 1,88 million € Comparisons with ships in the same class Simple ships: ~ 1,5 million € Complicated ships: ~ 3,5 million € Ar Vag Tredan gives interesting comparison Kul , Ship Project A11 Cost estimations
Changes from concept: Higher weight Slower speed Higher power Cost same Main design points same The ship seems feasible More work is needed to make final decision (Proper CAD model would have been nice) Kul , Ship Project A12 Conclusions
