Title: Flettner Rotor-Powered Marine Vessel – Design Evaluation and Systems Optimization
Advisor: Dr. Lubomir A. Ribarov
Summary: Based on CFD analyses results, the optimal system architecture of a Flettner Rotor configuration has been determined. The proposed solution utilizes the Magnus effect to generate lift for propulsion of a vessel in an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional fossil fuel-powered marine propulsion systems.
