| 摘要： | This report summarizes four energy audit reports conducted aboard the Reliance (210'), Juniper (225'), Famous (270') and Hamilton (378') classes of U. S. Coast Guard Cutters. Operational profiles and recent fuel consumption data for these classes in various Coast Guard Districts are presented. The report gives suggestions for reducing fuel consumption, and projects associated fuel savings for each class. Strategies common to all audited classes include use of most efficient machinery alignments, optimum transit speeds, improved pitch schedules, and reduced speed operations when feasible. Possible machinery retrofits, including lube oil heaters and reverse osmosis water-makers were also identified. Finally, the report recommends installation of permanent fuel meters, at least aboard a lead cutter in each class, and initiation of an incentive program to promote fuel efficiency and reward vessels which reduce their present fuel consumption. Realistic fuel savings of $3,334,100 per year (19%) are projected for the three WMEC and WHEC classes combined. The available operating data are too limited to project total savings for the WLB Class, but it appears that the present fuel consumption could be reduced by about 20 percent. |
