Extensive research for Superspeed I and II
For Aker Yards MARIN has done extensive research for Color Line Superspeed I and II. For both vessels the services incorporated a strong combination of simulation, model testing and full-scale measurments.

Complete test programme
  • hull form optimilisation
  • calm water model tests (with stock propeller)
  • appendage optimisation by means of propulsion tests (trim wedge and interceptor)
  • propulsion, cavitation observations and pressure pulse measurements (with designed propeller)
  • Seakeeping calculations and manoeuvring simulations
  • Full-scale measurements
