Europe, The Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Rotterdam, Wilhelminakade, World Port Days 2022, Aqua Helix (cut from B&T)

Propulsing a sleek but big ship like the Aqua Helix at 40 knots (=74 km/h) is no mean feat. It takes 4 of these MTU (Motoren und Turbinen Union) 20V 4000 M73 twin turbocharged diesel engines. The output of its 20 cylinders in V configuration is 3,6 MW and their total displacement is 83 litres. At full speed the engine consumes 900 l/hour.

This is number 48 of the World Port Days album.
