About: Mitsubishi Air Lubrication System

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Mitsubishi Air Lubrication System (MALS) is a system that reduces the viscous resistance component of the hull of ship by creating a layer of air bubbles below the hull of the ship. This reduces frictional resistance between the hull and the seawater. The system has been designed for bulk carriers and passenger ships. The blower uses a motor to generate the bubbles, and is mainly designed for use on flat hulls. A similar system is also made by Silverstream technologies. It is expected to yield a 10-15% reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, and also significant savings of fuel.

dbo:abstract
  • Kleine Luftblasen, unter dem Schiffsboden ausgestoßen und nach hinten wandernd, dienen zur Luftschmierung und damit zur Verminderung der als Schiffswiderstand bezeichneten Reibung im Wasser. Ziel ist es, den Treibstoffbedarf zu senken. (de)
