Twin Screw Propeller Arrangements Explained

This document describes a ship with twin screw propeller arrangements, with each propeller fitted with ducting, flap rudders, and designed on either side of a single skeg stern structure. The ship also has twin stern thrusters set forward of the propellers on the centerline above the keel. Extensive sacrificial anodes were used to reduce corrosion in the stern area due to the construction of dissimilar metals including tailshafts, bronze propellers, and steel rudders and hull.

Twin screw arrangements

Twin screw arrangements. Twin controllable pitch propellers (CPPs) each fitted with ducting
and flap rudders, designed either side of a single skeg stern structure. The vessel is also fit-
ted with twin stern thrusters set forward of the propellers, on the centre line above the keel.
Extensive use of sacrificial anodes have been used to reduce the corrosive effects in the stern
area due to the construction in dissimilar metals, namely with tail end shafts, bronze pro-
pellers and the steelwork of the rudders and hull.
