EuROFEEDER EXPLORATORY ACTION STUDY

Objective



Market requirements for new vessels are for a combination of higher speed and efFiciency. The EUROFEEDER, a common hull form and propulsion system to be used in different high speed displacement vessels such as, container ships (27-30), passenger cruise ships (<26), ferries & ro-ro/passenger vessels (ro-pax) (c28 knots), will fulfil the following requirements: - Solve technical problems of existing designs, i.e. propeller induced vibrations and cavitation erosion - Increased cargo carrying capacities / lightweight - Decreased building costs and time - Decreased propulsive power requirements - Enable construction of high speed ro-pax vessels with perfect manoeuvrability. Although the EUROFEEDER project concentrates on the ro-pax market, it will be a model for other vessel types, to reach the above goals, through application of . Hydrodynamically and structurally optimised Podded Propulsor R&D of a merchant electrical motor designed for a Podded Propulsor . Hydrodynamically new type of hull suitable for a Podded Propulsion System to enable high speed Shipbuilding know-how for technical development Market requirements for new vessels are for a combination of higher speed and efFiciency.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.
