Method and apparatus for conducting water through ships

摘要

Marine water is conducted onto a ship from a bilge vortex area, and is discharged from the ship into a dead water area above the ship's propeller. The water is moved from the vortex area to the dead water area with the aid of suction generated by the propeller. On the ship the water is desirably used for cooling purposes in the propeller's power plant, particularly in a condensor of the power plant.
