Comparison of a 20kW Folding Container and a Diesel Engine

What is container type diesel generator set?

Container type Diesel Generator Set Jet power supply container type generator set is design in accordance with ISO/TC104 standard size, rational construction, to make sure the generator set will not be damaged due to under high pressure in transport, and is suitable for ship transportation.

How does a container ship propulsion system work?

Most container ships use the traditional propulsion system that relies on two-stroke diesel engines to obtain the energy needed to propel the ship, using fossil fuels for combustion. The conventional system is composed of two stroke diesel engines, propeller shaft, and groups of pumps.

How to choose a power system for electric propulsion in a container ship?

Economic feasibility provides significant information for selecting technological alternatives. After the EEDI calculation, the result of economic analysis is the next consideration to choose an appropriate power system for electric propulsion in a large container ship.

Why do container vessels have a lower power demand?

The lower power demand of these container vessel orders can be explained by the increased focus on reduced fuel consumption: Shipyards have improved hull designs and hydrodynamic propulsion efficiency, thereby reducing power demand at the same vessel speed by ~10%, and combining this with de-rated engines having better fuel efficiency.
