Popis: The objective of this research is to provide a tool that allows to quantify the power requirements, energy consumption and the efficiency of the propulsion system of a catamaran with two degrees of freedom according to its speed. Furthermore, it seeks to improve the design process from a phenomenological perspective that gives rise to a better reliability of the result. To achieve this, an electromechanical model is being developed by using the methodology for obtaining phenomenological-based semi-physical models. This model couples the dynamics of a geometry-known ship with its propulsion system, which is constituted by a propeller and a brushless direct current (BLDC) electric motor; at the same time, it uses data from computational simulations related to the hydrodynamics of the submerged components. Finally, the results of using the model with parameters of a specific catamaran and motor are presented. This model allows to properly couple the dynamics of a boat with two degrees of freedom.
