\nA Swiss society named\u00a0Pro Dampfer\u00a0intends to build an all-new paddle steamer for service on the river Rhein between the Swiss town of Schaffhausen to the German town Konstanz on lake Constance. No doubt the new paddle steamer will be popular with tourists enjoying the beautiful landscape along the meandering river, free of motor noise and exhaust emissions, but the project is also interesting from a pure technical background. As a world first, the new paddle steamer will be fuelled with local wood pellets, resulting in a CO2-neutral operation. However, the calorific value of wooden pellets is much lower compared to fuel oil, requiring an optimized steam engine. DLM now has to do the engineering for the entire drive: fuel, firing, boiler, steam engine, auxilliaries and paddle wheels.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Der Verein Pro Dampfer, der sich zum Ziel gesetzt hat, auf dem Untersee und Rhein einen neuen \u00f6kologischen Raddampfer zu bauen, erteilte der DLM letzte Woche den Auftrag f\u00fcr das Engineering des Dampfantriebes. Wie bekannt, soll der neue Raddampfer als Weltpremiere eine CO2-neutrale Pelletsfeuerung erhalten. Der niedrige Heizwert der Pellets erfordert eine Optimierung des Dampfantriebes.…<\/p>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":8513,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[58,54,57,56,55],"tags":[64,66,63,60,59,62,65,61],"class_list":["post-8384","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archives","category-latest-news","category-projects","category-references","category-technology","tag-engineering","tag-latest-updates","tag-locomotives","tag-modern-steam","tag-pamphlets","tag-spare-parts","tag-stationary-engines","tag-steam-engine-for-ships"],"yoast_head":"\n
