Influence of gas turbine controller adjustment on ship propulsion system behaviour in rough sea conditions. Part 2. The simulation investigations

The paper presents simulation investigations of influence of gas turbine controller adju-stment on ship propulsion system operating in heavy sea conditions, based on the modelpresented in Part I of the paper. The ship propulsion system with two gas turbines driving - through mechanical gear - ship controllable pitch propeller, described in Part I,was used to analysis. The harmonic disturbances due to sea waves with selected frequencies were used as input function in computing the system's amplitude characteristicsat different settings of P and PD controllers.
