Matter Propulsion for shipping.

As this propulsion is effective in water the unit must be considered as a propulsion system for shipping of all sizes from small run-arounds to tankers and liners

Intakes installed in the bow section of a ship would effectively reduce the pressure wave and as they are installed in undisturbed water there would be an increase in the speed of the ship.

The tube construction acts as a keel in maintaining forward straight-line movement.

If the entire motor assembly keel tube is capable of rotation through 360 degrees this will act as steerage.

As ships displace water the propulsion unit intakes are positioned to take advantage of the displacement by allowing the pressure to assist the inlet flow to the Matter propulsion unit on board that is powered using an X or Y Block Hydrogen gas powered piston engine and the outlet is placed to maintain maximum thrust.

As there is no propeller or rudder drag the passage of the ship through the water will be eased reducing fuel needs.

A typical arrangement for a large ship would comprise of a single or double main propulsion tube with auxiliary smaller 360-degree rotational units fore and aft for manoeuvring in harbour. The auxiliary units would be locked in for straight line propulsion or used to steer the ship in open water thus removing the need for rudders, which slow the ship.

There are number of advantages to this over the traditional propeller driven ships.

Tankers that are empty of ballast have a problem where if the propeller is not deep enough under water there is wastage of power as cavitation occurs as the propeller sucks in air. This reduces the efficiency of the propeller.

This cannot occur using Matter Propulsion as the propulsion tube is right beneath the ship.

One great advantage is that as the ships passage is in water fuel is constantly available.

Another benefit to the environment is that no fuel oil is needed thereby increasing load carrying capacity.

As no fuel oil is stored hundreds of tons of oil cannot escape and pollute the ocean around a stricken ship that is breaking up. No more oil spills.

The environment benefits as there are no exhaust carbon fuel emissions.

It’s our business to have pollution free oceans.
