Suction wings in focus – practical and inspiring insights
In our latest Windship Insight, we highlighted the important role of wind (auxiliary) propulsion systems in shipping and looked, together with experts, at the technology of suction wings. We focussed in particular on how they work, how their performance is evaluated and how they are used in practice on board ships.
Many thanks to the speakers Maxime Garenaux from MARIN (Maritime Research Institute Netherlands), Willem Stam from Econowind and Gilbèrt de Bock from De Bock Maritiem B.V. BV for their descriptive presentations!
