K-Sim® Engine Landing Helicopter Dock – DE32 LHD

The K-Sim Engine DE32 LHD model is based on a modern Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) vessel, featuring a CODAG-E (Combined Diesel and Gas Electric) engine configuration, typically used in modern Navy LHD ships.

K-Sim® Engine Landing Helicopter Dock – DE32 LHD

The K-Sim Engine DE32 LHD model simulates a modern Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) vessel with a CODAG-E engine configuration, combining both diesel and gas turbines for efficient propulsion and power generation. This configuration features two 7.2 MW Diesel Generators (6.6 kV) and a 17.4 MW Turbine Generator, providing electrical power for both propulsion and onboard systems. The model offers a realistic representation of a diesel-electric propulsion system used in modern Navy LHD ships, ensuring flexible and effective operation across various conditions.

Training Levels

The K-Sim Engine DE32 LHD model is an essential tool for both basic and advanced training of marine engineers. The primary focus of the simulator is to provide an in-depth understanding of the operation and system integration of diesel generators and a turbine generator within a diesel-electric propulsion system, combined with podded azimuth propulsion motors.

The training also includes hands-on experience with control room operator panels, as well as bridge and steering panels. Key training objectives encompass emergency operations, troubleshooting, optimal operation, fuel economy, and energy conservation. Through controlled training, the simulator provides a realistic experience, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the total plant operation, similar to what engineers would encounter in a real engine room.
