(TU Delft Ship Design, Production and Operations) de Vos, P. (TU Delft Ship Design, Production and Operations) Contributor Papanikolaou, A (editor) Yamato, H (editor) et, al (editor) Date 2015 Abstract In this paper we describe a generic way of sizing main dimensions of primary equipment for marine applications. Contrary to a straight fit through a database the method tries to develop expressions in which, apart from the main specifications in terms of power and speed, the selection of the main machine parameters has an influence on the ultimate overall dimensions of the component. The result is a “rubber” design model that uses in an intelligent way the first principles underlying the design of machines and that can be used in preliminary design of complex maritime objects. The method will be illustrated for components as diverse as electric machines, gearboxes and diesel engines but is thought to be generally applicable.
