Diesel Engine Well-mounted Azimuth Thruster
Application
A diesel engine well-mounted azimuth thruster is a type of propulsion system that is commonly used in marine vessels. It consists of a diesel engine that drives a propeller or impeller, which is mounted on a movable pod or housing that can rotate 360 degrees around a vertical axis. The well-mounted design means that the thruster is installed in a well or tunnel in the hull of the vessel. The diesel engine well-mounted azimuth thruster is typically used in larger vessels, such as offshore supply vessels, tugboats, and workboats, where high levels of maneuverability and precise control are essential. It is particularly useful for dynamic positioning and station-keeping operations, where the vessel needs to remain in a specific location, regardless of the wind, waves, or current.
