船舶燃油应用技术

燃油费用在船舶运输成本中占很大的比例,约占50%。燃油的使用管理不仅直接影响船舶营运的效益,而且也影响船舶运行的动力性、可靠性。对设备的磨损、备件的消耗及机舱的维修保养工作起着至关重要的作用。为了做好燃油管理工作,不仅船舶机舱管理人员应熟悉船舶燃油应用技术,而且船舶公司机务管理人员、负责燃油采购人员甚至公司主管经理也应对船舶燃油应用技术充分地了解。     

欧盟0．1％低硫燃油法令2010年1月1日正式实行

欧盟委员会出台的个法令规定“从2010年1月1日起,所有在欧盟港口‘停靠’的船舶,其燃油含硫量不得超过0．1％的最高限制。”。该规定严格执行时间是2010年1月1日,但2010年1月1日到2010年7月1日将作为半年的执行缓冲期,从2010年7月1日开始,如挂靠欧盟港口船舶达不到欧盟规定的低硫燃油标准将被处罚,所有经营欧盟航线的船公司都应积极应对,提前做好准备。     

船舶废气清洗系统洗涤水对环境影响研究现状及趋势

船舶废气清洗系统(EGCS)是IMO要求的行之有效的硫氧化物减排的替代技术。但使用EGCS会将废气中相当比例的污染物带到水域中,可能影响海洋生态环境。IMO和我国政府都要求开展EGCS洗涤水对环境影响研究,特别是对敏感水域的影响。本文综述了国内外关于EGCS洗涤水对环境影响的研究进展,结果表明迄今国内外学界针对EGCS洗涤水对环境潜在环境风险尚未形成科学定论,现有的研究结论也未能就EGCS洗涤水对环境的影响形成共识。

The viability of pure vegetable oil as an alternative fuel for large ships

Heavy fuels are likely to remain the dominant fuel source for two-stroke, low-speed diesel engines for large ship propulsion for the next decade or more. There is however, potential for increased use of pure vegetable oils (PVO) as an alternative and, by emitting lower levels of several pollutants, this can help the attainment of Annex VI of the MARPOL 73/78 convention aimed at large ships using fuels with less than 4.5% sulphur or 1.5% sulphur in SO_X emission control areas The use of alternative fuels can also influence the attainment of the Kyoto protocol that requires greenhouse gas emissions to be reduced by 5% by 2010 compared to 1990. This paper analyses the physical and chemical properties of various pure vegetable oils as an alternative to heavy fuel oil for large ship propulsion.

Estimation of aircraft taxi fuel burn using flight data recorder archives

This paper builds a model for estimating the fuel consumption of a taxiing aircraft using flight data recorder information from operational aircraft. The taxi fuel burn is modeled as a linear function of several potential explanatory variables including the taxi time, number of stops, number of turns and number of acceleration events, and the coefficients are estimated using least-squares regression. The statistical significance of each potential factor is investigated. Our analysis shows that in addition to the taxi time, the number of acceleration events is a significant factor in determining taxi fuel consumption. Since the model parameters are estimated using data from operational aircraft, they provide more accurate estimates of fuel burn than methods that use idealized physical models of fuel consumption based on aircraft velocity profiles, or the baseline fuel consumption estimates provided by the International Civil Aviation Organization.     

Urban form and long-term fuel supply decline: A method to investigate the peak oil risks to essential activities

The issue of a peak in world oil supply has become a mainstream concern over the past several years. The petroleum geology models of post-peak oil production indicate supply declines from 1.5% to 6% per year. Travel requires fuel energy, but current transportation planning models do not include the impacts of constrained fuel supply on private travel demand. This research presents a method to assess the risk to activities due to a constrained fuel supply relative to projected unconstrained travel demand. The method assesses the probability of different levels of fuel supply over a given planning horizon, then calculates impact due to the energy supply not meeting the planning expectations. A new travel demand metric which characterizes trips as essential, necessary, and optional to wellbeing is used in the calculation. A case study explores four different urban forms developed from different future growth options for the urban development strategy of Christchurch, New Zealand to 2041. Probable fuel supply availability was calculated, and the risk to transport activities in the 2041 transport model was assessed. The results showed all the urban forms had significantly reduced trip numbers and lower energy mode distributions from the current planning projections, but the risk to activities differed among the planning options. Density is clearly one of the mitigating factors, but density alone does not provide a solution to reduced energy demand. The method clearly shows how risk to participation in activities is lower for an urban form which has a high degree of human powered and public transport access to multiple options between residential and commercial/industrial/service destinations. This analysis has led to new thinking about adaptation and reorganization of urban forms as a strategy for energy demand reduction rather than just densification.     

Airline energy efficiency measures using the Virtual Frontier Network RAM with weak disposability

In this paper, airline energy efficiency is divided into three stages: the operations stage, the services stage and the sales stage. Greenhouse gas emissions are treated as an undesirable output of the services stage. This new three-stage strategic operating framework is a modification of existing models. A new model, Virtual Frontier Network Range Adjusted Measure with weak disposability, is proposed to evaluate the efficiencies of 22 international airlines, from 2008 to 2012. The results show that the new model can establish more reasonable rankings and confirm new benchmarking airlines and that inclusion in the European Union’s Emissions Trading Scheme has had little influence on the improvement of airline energy efficiency.     

The influence of the road network on private productivity measures using Data Envelopment Analysis: A case study from Spain

We evaluate the economic effects of investment in the road network on private regional activity. We employ provincial Spanish panel data from 1980 to 2007 to perform non-parametric frontier techniques based on Data Envelopment Analysis and to obtain the Malmquist productivity indexes, thus enabling us to examine the evaluation of the productivity growth via technological changes or efficiency gains. Additionally, we analyze the role of transport infrastructure on the evolution of Total Factor Productivity and its components through econometric techniques. Our results show important spillover effects. Moreover, our findings have significant implications for policy makers if we take into account the fact that the use of the road network in economic activity or in commercial relations greatly influences productivity growth.
