EUROPEAN FP7 EU R&D PROJECT “SILENV”
www.silenv.eu
SISTEMAR participates as subcontractor of CEHIPAR in the 4 years EU R&D project SILENV with the objective to study the reduction of noise and vibrations in ships with the goal to create a green label of quiet ships.
The consortium is formed up by : TSI, CEHIPAR, ACCIONA TRASMEDITERRANEA, UNIVERSIDAD DE CATALUÑA, BUREAU VERITAS, CETENA, INSEAN, SSPA, VTT, TNO, DCNS, VARNA UNIVERSITY, GLASGOW UNIVERSITY and GENOA UNIVERSITY.
SISTEMAR has performed a new design of CLT blades for the ferry “Fortuny”, already installed with CLT blades, introducing several new items in the design as for instance the use of a new developed mean line of the annular sections. Model tests already performed at CEHIPAR with the new CLT blades design have shown improvements both in efficiency and also in the level of pressure pulses.
