Popis: | This study investigates an appropriate combined cycle as the electric propulsion system in a large container ship. A gas turbine combined cycle and molten carbonate fuel cell-steam turbine cycle are considered; the gas turbine uses LNG or hythane fuels. Because it is difficult to choose an appropriate propulsion system from only one perspective, comprehensive and unbiased analyses refer to the system performance, eco-efficiency, and economic feasibility for three configurations. An LNG-fueled COGES (combined gas turbine and steam integrated electric drive system) seems to be a promising alternative with regards to economic feasibility as well as a greenhouse gas regulation. The following alternative is the molten carbonate fuel cell-steam turbine cycle. A hythane-fueled COGES has a relatively low economic feasibility but will be the sole propulsion system if the regulation of greenhouse gas emission from shipping is stringent. On the other hand, the carbon taxation and implementation of an incentive for hydrogen fuel may facilitate a greener shipping environment; the additional eco-friendly policy for the shipping industry needs to be provided, shortly soon. |
