标题：Calculation of the mean long-term service speed of transport ship Continuation of the second part of the paper published in the Polish Maritime Research No.1(51),January 2007 Part III Influence of shipping route and ship parameters on its service speed
摘要：Service speed obtainable by a ship in real weather conditions when sailing on a given shipping route,is one of the major parameters which have great impact on ship operation costs.The so far used,very approximate method of service speed prediction based on “service margin”,is very little exact.In this paper a new method based on additional ship resistance dependent on mean statistical parameters of wave and wind occurring on a given shipping route,is presented.The mean long-term service speed is calculated on the basis of the calculated additional resistance and the screw propeller and propulsion engine parameters.Also,a new definition of service margin and a way of its calculation is presented apart from the results of the mean service speed calculation depending on ship’s type and size and shipping route.
