Direct Electrical Load, Steam Demand, Electric Steam Coupling, Meal-Service Peak, Daily Utility Use & Capacity Reserve

Cruise Ship Galley Electrical Load, Steam & Peak Demand Tool

Screen cruise-galley peak utility demand without treating connected kW as operating demand. Simple mode converts connected electrical and steam ratings into peak loads and capacity margins. Advanced mode adds individual galley equipment groups, normal versus meal-service diversity, electric steam generation, reserve targets, daily electricity/steam use and utility intensity per meal.

Need equipment-group diversity and daily meal-service loads? Click Advanced above.Advanced separates cooking, refrigeration, warewashing, ventilation and service loads, then couples electric steam generation into the electrical peak while reducing central steam-header demand.

Galley Equipment Group Register

Direct electrical and steam demands are modeled independently by group. Refrigeration/ventilation can carry high normal demand while cooking/warewashing can dominate meal peaks.

Galley Utility Readiness

Utility-planning screen only: this tool does not replace the approved ship electrical load analysis, feeder/cable/protection study, generator-capacity assessment, boiler/steam-system design, pressure-drop calculation, harmonic study or commissioning measurement. User-entered diversity/coincidence factors should be based on vessel data, equipment schedules or an approved design basis.
