GATERS Project (GATE RUDDER System as a Retrofit for the Next Generation Propulsion and Steering of Ships)
The aim of the GATERS project is to design a new steering system (Gate Rudder), reduce the fuel consumption and emissions (CO 2 , NOX , SOX ) of ships and make ships energy efficient. In addition, the resulting design was produced and installed on designated ships to...
TF2000 Project (Turkish Type Frigate Design Project)
It was aimed to obtain the open water performance of the propeller with the cavitation tunnel tests of the Turkish Type Frigate developed in the TF2000 Project, to measure the speed at which the designed propeller cavitated with the cavitation tests behind the ship...
