The main aim of the master thesis was to create a design tool for the arrangement of the Propulsion, Power and Energy (PPE) systems during the conceptual design stage in cooperation with Maritime Research Institute of Netherlands (MARIN). Within MARIN, a recent and novel methodology known as Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is implemented to aid in the design process of either fully or partly Zero Emission Ships (ZESs). The arrangement design tool developed in this master thesis needed to provide initial PPE layouts in the conceptual design stage and work as an add-on to the MBSE methodology and the Ship Power and Energy Concept (SPEC) tool, an in-house tool developed by MARIN. The design tool developed is the final necessary step needed between the important physical design details captured within the MBSE and the SPEC tool and the generation of arrangement layouts across a 2-dimensional physical space.
In other words, the design tool developed uses the MBSE methodology and SPEC tool details as inputs for the generation of PPE system layouts during the conceptual design stage.
