  2. Combined diesel–electric and gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_dieselelectric...

    A CODLAG system employs electric motors which are connected to the propeller shafts (usually 2). The motors are powered by diesel generators.For higher speeds, a gas turbine powers the shafts via a cross-connecting gearbox; for cruise speed, the drive train of the turbine is disengaged with clutches.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_diesel_or_gas

    Both are connected to the shaft with clutches; only one system is driving the ship, in contrast to combined diesel and gas (CODAG) systems that can use the combined power output of both. [1] The advantage of CODOG is a simpler gearing compared to CODAG, but it needs either more powerful or additional gas turbines to achieve the same maximum ...

    For an example the new CODAG-propelled Fridtjof Nansen-class frigates of the Royal Norwegian Navy, the gear ratio for the diesel engine is changed from about 1:7.7 (engine:propeller) for diesel-only to 1:5.3 when in diesel-and-turbine mode. Some ships even have three different gear ratios for the diesel engines — one each for single-diesel ...

  5. Holt gas–electric tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holt_gaselectric_tank

    The Holt gas–electric tank was the first prototype tank built in the United States [1] in a collaboration between the Holt Manufacturing Company (now Caterpillar Inc.) and the General Electric Company. The tank, built during 1917–1918, was the only one of its kind built, as testing proved it lacked the agility and maneuverability required. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_diesel-electric...

    The CODLAD propulsion system is based on the use of electric motors directly connected to the axes (generally two) of the propellers. The electric motors are powered by diesel generators and to have higher speeds, as happens in CODAD propulsion systems, the higher power diesel engine is inserted which is disconnected from the transmission system to return to cruising speed.

  7. Marine propulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_propulsion

    Turbo-electric transmission uses electric generators to convert the mechanical energy of a turbine (steam or gas) into electric energy and electric motors to convert it back into mechanical energy to power the driveshafts. An advantage of turbo-electric transmission is that it allows the combination of high-speed turbines with slow turning ...

  8. Integrated electric propulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_electric_propulsion

    An example of integrated electric propulsion in the Type 45 destroyer (GT: gas turbine; DG: diesel generator) Integrated electric propulsion (IEP), full electric propulsion (FEP) or integrated full electric propulsion (IFEP) is an arrangement of marine propulsion systems such that gas turbines or diesel generators or both generate three-phase [1] electricity which is then used to power ...

  9. Fuel tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_tank

    The average fuel tank capacity for cars is 50–60 L (12–16 US gal). [3] The most common materials for fuel tanks are metal or plastic. Metal (steel or aluminium) fuel tanks are usually built by welding stamped sheetmetal parts together. Plastic fuel tanks usually built using blow molding, which allows more complex shapes to be used.
