1 Application

  1.1 The purpose of these guidelines is to provide guidance on calculating the coefficient fw from the standard fw curves, which is contained in the EEDI.

  1.2 These guidelines apply to ships for which a simulation is not conducted to obtain the coefficient fw following Guidelines for the simulation for the coefficient fw for decrease in ship speed in a representative sea condition .

  1.3 The representative sea condition for each ship is defined in paragraph 2.1 in the Guidelines for the simulation for the coefficient fw for decrease in ship speed in a representative sea condition .

  1.4 The design parameters in the calculation of fw from the standard fw curves should be consistent with those used in the calculation of the other components in the EEDI.
