KYMA SHIP PERFORMANCE - Net

KYMA a.s have been working with ship performancesystems for more than 30 years and are one of theleading suppliers within this field of technologyPropulsion economy is based on fuelefficiency and ship reliability. To achieve anoptimum result you need the best balancebetween fuel consumption, power outputand ship speed. This can be obtained fromaccurate information provided by high qualityinstrumentation.Kyma Performance Monitoring provides bridgeand engine officers with vital propulsion data forcost-effective operation of the ship.Reduced fuel consumptionAs fuel consumption is a major cost factor, the useof Kyma Performance Monitoring can contributesignificantly to an improved bottom line.Hull fouling and propeller roughness indicationKyma Performance Monitoring makes it possible toevaluate the economic impact of reduced propellerefficiency and increased hull resistance. It can showthe effect of any action taken to improve hull orpropeller smoothness.Performance evaluationContracts for new buildings are based on performanceestimates from model tank testing.Kyma Performance Monitoring can confirm preciselyto the contract performance parameters or to anyspecified deviations.Environmental informationEmission calculation of CO2 and SO2 is included in ShipPerformance and EEOI will be continuously calculated.Trim optimizationKyma Ship Performance can be used to optimizevessel operation by the use of empirical data. In order tooptimize ship trim for a given power and draft thefunctions LOGGING HISTORY and TRIAL are included inthe KSP program.Diagnostic ToolboxAn optional trend analysis toolbox is available fordetailed statistical analysis of speed loss andperformance information.Overload protectionEarly warning signals provide a further benefit for thecontinuous monitoring of propulsion components.These can indicate the overload stress of componentsand thus prevent unexpected breakdown.
