Armada Technologies Limited (ATL) is developing a novel "Passive Air Lubrication System" (PALS) to reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions on merchant ships. The novel element has been designed and is currently under construction for testing in a pressurised cavitation tunnel this September.PALS will utilise small rotating devices to regulate fluid flows through the system and optimise its performance contingent on operating conditions such as the vessel's speed, draft and trim.This project is proposed to specify and develop a "PALS" control system to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions as much as possible based on its operating conditions such as its speed, draft, trim and the weather and sea conditions.The project will be delivered by working in partnership with the following UK based world class organisations.**Arcsilea:** A specialist consultancy focussed on bespoke strategic, technical, data and machine learning based solutions for decarbonisation in the maritime sector.**Queen's University Belfast,** School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. Led by Professor Paul Maropoulos focussed on smart and Metrology Enabled Manufacturing, combining and linking the process and product verification from cyber to physical domains.**QinetiQ:** a company of scientists and engineers committed to serving customers' needs. Extensive experience and unique science and engineering expertise can be deployed to equip customers with powerful solutions to their most pressing challenges.The project is spilt into three separate sections fully utilising the skills and experience of our partners specifically;**1\. Data:** Collection, analysis and transmission from ship to shore across the world and its oceans.**2\. System learning**: Providing optimal vessel and PALS operating configurations. Often referred to as "AI" this will form the "brain" of PALS which will continuously learn to enable emission reductions in changing environments.**3\. System Control:** Provide a design utilising data and learning which delivers instructions to PALS and adjusts its operating configuration to minimise GHG emissions .These sections will combine to produce a designed and costed Minimum Viable Product of a "digital" twin model control system.It is planned that PALS will be installed on an operational merchant ship during 2023 with this "brain " an integral part to evaluate 'live' performance data and feedback at sea.

阿尔马达技术有限公司（ATL）正在开发一种新型的“被动空气润滑系统”（帕尔斯），以减少商船的燃料消耗和碳排放。这种新型元件已经设计完成，目前正在建造中，将于今年9月在一个加压空化隧道中进行测试。帕尔斯将利用小型旋转装置来调节通过系统的流体流量，并根据船舶速度、该项目旨在指定和开发“帕尔斯”控制系统，以减少燃料消耗和温室气体（GHG）根据其运行条件，如速度，吃水，纵倾以及天气和海况，尽可能多地排放。该项目将与以下英国世界级组织合作交付。** Arcsilea：** 一家专业咨询公司，专注于为海事部门的脱碳提供定制的战略、技术、数据和机器学习解决方案。**贝尔法斯特女王大学机械与航空航天工程学院。由Paul Maropoulos教授领导，专注于智能和计量制造，将过程和产品验证从网络到物理领域相结合。QinetiQ：** 一家致力于满足客户需求的科学家和工程师公司。我们可以利用丰富的经验和独特的科学和工程专业知识，为客户提供强大的解决方案，以应对他们最紧迫的挑战。该项目分为三个独立的部分，充分利用我们合作伙伴的技能和经验;**1\.数据：** 收集、分析和从船舶向世界各地及其海洋的海岸传输。2\.系统学习 **：提供最佳的容器和帕尔斯操作配置。通常被称为“人工智能”，这将形成帕尔斯的“大脑”，它将不断学习如何在不断变化的环境中实现减排。3\.系统控制：** 提供一个利用数据和学习的设计，向帕尔斯提供指令，并调整其操作配置，以最大限度地减少温室气体排放。这些部分将联合收割机，产生一个“数字”双模控制系统的设计和成本最小可行产品。计划帕尔斯将于2023年安装在一艘运营商船上，该“大脑“是评估海上”实时“性能数据和反馈的组成部分。
