The book is primarily intended for students at technical universities on a bacherols course. The more advanced chapters can be used at masters level. Since the focus is on design, it is also relevant for professional marine engineers as a reference text for the daily application of physical principles to practical problems. The book also offers the operational engineer some fundamental background.

Marine engineering is part of the greater task of designing and operating ships where machinery systems have a decisive influence on their architecture and their safe and economic operation. Since marine engineering is the art of integrating components into systems, able to perform a specific set of functions, the systems engineering approach is the key element. The higher level functional approach, however, is always present, while at the same time the book offers adequate information on specific components. As well as systems engineering, energy conversion is the other keyword.

This book give an overview of the main components of the propulsion and electric power plant and their power requirements. Based on a fundamental understanding of all types of energy conversion, the present and future architecture of power plants on board ships is then presented. After and overview of the main equipment (prime movers, transmission equipment, electrical equipment and propulsors), the diesel engine, gas turbine, , electric machinery, power electronics and propellers are analysed in more depth. Matching the propulsion engine to the propeller and the calculation of ship fuel consumption and exhaust emissions conclude this essential volume for marine engineering students, lecturers and practising professionals.
