Kongsberg Releases Dual Fuel Diesel Electric Simulator

The model represents a LNG vessel with a diesel electric dual fuel propulsion system, with the following propulsion configuration: Two high voltage propulsion electric motors (PEM) are connected to one propeller through gears.

Ongoing simulation model development focuses on vessel efficiency. Kongsberg Maritime has released a sophisticated Engine Room Simulator (ERS) model based on a Dual Fuel Diesel Electric (DFDE) Engine Room configuration from a modern liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier. The new DFDE model will offer the most sophisticated simulator training for LNG engineers available today. DFDE driven vessels are becoming more and more common and the new engine room simulator model from Kongsberg…

The Kongsberg Maritime Simulation & Training department has developed a Green Ship Engine Room Simulator (ERS) model based on a Wärstilä 12RT-flex 82C low-speed common-rail engine, built for a Panamax container ship of 4800 TEU, with reefer capacity of 800. The scenario for the simulated ship model is a modern Green Ship that is financed and operated by a ship owner who is concerned about environmental issues, and who has built a fuel efficient / low-emission container ship using well-proven, commercially available technical solutions.
