Problem 4.7: A small training ship Kings Pointer designed to travel at 10 knots needs 2000 kW, propulsion power and 500 kW, for ship service loads. If it is desired to redesign the power plant for a higher speed of 15 knots, deter- mine the total (a) kilovolt-ampere rating of the new electrical generators, (b) horsepower rating of the new diesel engines, and (c) diesel fuel con- sumption in U.S. gallons for a round trip of 1000 nautical miles at 15 knots.
