The freighter is pulled by the "Tianfan"
The world's first kite-driven cargo ship, the Beluga SkySails, set sail on the 15th in Hamburg, Germany, and sailed across the Atlantic to Houston. The giant hi-tech kite hanging above the freighter is full of wind and provides auxiliary power, which saves up to half of the fuel in the best conditions. “Tianfan†not only saves energy but also reduces pollution. If this trip is successful, it will open a new era of technology sailing.
The “Tianfan†company in Hamburg, which developed the Tianfan wind system, cooperated with the “White Whale†steamship company in Bremerhaven to install a super-light synthetic fiber giant kite on the 132-meter “White Whale Tianfanâ€. Rising to an altitude of 300 meters, the wind and wind direction are input into the computer on the ship, and the kite is guided to move along the orbit around the freighter, pulling the freighter from different directions to reduce the engine load of the ship.
After entering the 20th century, wind-powered sailboats were considered outdated because they were unreliable. Unlike the sails of the previous sailing ships installed on the hull, Tianfan sent the sails to the sky, and the German engineer Ruige, who invented Tianfan, said: "The advantage of Tianfan is that it can use the most stable and strong wind in the upper layer."
He said that there are 60,000 ships that can be installed in the 100,000 ships currently registered in the world, including container wheels and oil tankers. According to the wind condition, 10% to 35% of fuel can be saved. The ideal short-term wind can even be used. Save 50% on fuel.
Under the pressure of crude oil prices moving to a hundred dollars per barrel, it is indeed good news to be able to use the windless energy as an alternative energy source. For the "White Whale Tianfan", as long as 20% of fuel is saved a day, it is 1600. Dollar. Tianfan has received many orders, including trawlers and superyachts. It is estimated that there will be 1,500 ships using Tianfan in 2015.
Kite in the beach brings inspiration
When Reggae was flying at the beach at the age of 15, he developed the idea of ​​kites driving the ship, but it was not until 2001 that his creativity was first realized on luxury yachts, which became the power propulsion system for the freighter. He admits that although the past five years of nearly 55 trials with a 55-meter-long vessel, the energy-saving benefits far exceeded expectations, but it is inevitable to see the "White Whale Tianfan" sailing.
A set of "Tianfan" will cost $720,000
A set of "Tianfan" system will cost $72,600,000, but it is estimated that the fuel cost saved can be recovered in three years. According to Stowberg, CEO of Beluga Shipping, it is more important that Tianfan can reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Currently, the annual carbon dioxide emissions of shipping are 800 million tons, which is estimated to increase to 1 billion tons in five years.
Some experts said that the retro power that relies on wind sailing is not 100% useful. When the wind is over or the speed of the ship exceeds 16 knots, the hero is useless, and the wind may increase the uncertainty of navigation, and the shipping time must be strictly observed. Companies may not be willing to take risks.
