[0046] The embodiment of the present application provides an analysis method for a large passenger ship elevator system configuration, which can provide effective guidance for how to perform elevator system configuration and rationality analysis of an existing configuration in a large passenger ship new ship type development and design process. Here, reference is made to Architectural Design Data Set 1 (second edition) (hereinafter referred to as “Chinese standard”) and Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) Guide D: 2010- Building Traffic Systems (hereinafter referred to as “British standard”), and a certain type of large passenger ship (hereinafter referred to as target passenger ship) is configured and analyzed, as shown in the following table.

[0056] In the embodiment, the determination of the distribution characteristics of the areas related to personnel vertical flow of the target passenger ship, including at least main public spaces, living spaces and service spaces in step 1 is specifically as follows:

[0057] The deck layer and the main vertical area in which each space in the areas related to personnel vertical flow of the target passenger ship, including at least main public spaces, living spaces and service spaces, and the sub-spaces contained in each space are distributed on the passenger ship are determined.

[0058] As an example, the main public spaces related to passenger / crew vertical flow on a large passenger ship include passenger main / secondary embarkation areas, crew embarkation areas, main / secondary dining rooms or specialty restaurants, open deck activity areas, tender embarkation areas, etc. The passenger main / secondary embarkation areas and crew embarkation areas are usually located on different deck levels or in different main vertical zones. The main / secondary dining rooms or specialty restaurants are usually distributed over multiple deck levels or multiple main vertical zones. The open deck activity areas usually span multiple main vertical zones. The tender embarkation areas are usually located on the bulwark deck level.

[0059] The main residential spaces related to passenger / crew vertical flow on a large passenger ship include passenger accommodations, crew accommodations, theaters, leisure and entertainment areas, shopping areas, medical centers, pantry without cooking facilities, etc. The passenger accommodations usually cover multiple deck levels and multiple main vertical zones. The crew accommodations are usually located on lower deck levels and span multiple main vertical zones. The leisure and entertainment areas are usually distributed over multiple deck levels or multiple main vertical zones. The shopping areas are usually located near the center of passenger activity. The theaters usually occupy multiple deck levels. The medical centers are usually located on lower deck levels. The pantries without cooking facilities are usually distributed over passenger accommodation decks and leisure and entertainment areas.

[0060] The main service spaces related to crew vertical flow on a large passenger ship include kitchens, refrigerated storages, dry food storages, provisioning areas, baggage areas, laundry areas, etc. The kitchens are usually located near the dining rooms, and large kitchens are arranged across main vertical zones or across deck levels. The refrigerated storages, dry food storages, provisioning areas, baggage areas, and laundry areas are usually located on the bulwark deck or on the deck levels below.

[0061] The main control stations, machinery spaces, and other working spaces related to crew vertical flow on a large passenger ship include the bridge, the navigation equipment room, the emergency generator room, the battery room, the broadcast room, the dry garbage disposal room, the engine room, the air conditioning compressor room, the bow thruster room, the bow / stern mooring area, etc. These working spaces are distributed in various areas on the passenger ship.

[0062] The distribution of the main spaces of the target passenger ship is shown in Table 1. The distribution characteristics are consistent with the distribution characteristics of the main spaces related to personnel vertical flow on a large passenger ship described in this section

[0063] Table 1 Distribution of main spaces of the target passenger ship

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] In this embodiment, the determining of the main demand characteristics of the vertical flow between each space in the area including at least the main public space, the residential space, and the service space in step 2 specifically includes:

[0067] analyzing and determining a plurality of sub-features contained in the main demand characteristics;

[0068] Based on the plurality of sub-features, a plurality of groups of two sub-places respectively satisfying any one of the plurality of sub-features are determined from all sub-places respectively contained in the sub-places of the area including at least the main public place, the living place and the service place.

[0069] As an example, there are generally vertical flow demands between the following places in a large passenger ship: a, between the passenger main / secondary embarkation area and the passenger accommodation; b, between the tender embarkation area and the passenger accommodation; c, between the crew embarkation area and the crew accommodation; d, between the passenger accommodation and the leisure and entertainment area, the shopping area, the open deck activity area; e, between the main / secondary dining room or specialty dining room and the leisure and entertainment area, the shopping area, the open deck activity area, the passenger accommodation; f, between the theater and the leisure and entertainment area, the open deck activity area, the passenger accommodation; g, between the medical center and the leisure and entertainment area, the shopping area, the open deck activity area, the passenger accommodation; h, between the main cold storage, dry food storage and the kitchen; i, between the kitchen and the pantry; j, between the laundry and the passenger accommodation; k, between the dry garbage disposal room and each deck; l, between the luggage area and the passenger accommodation; m, between the cargo area and the shopping area; n, between the control station, machine place and other working places and the crew accommodation; o, between the kitchen and the main dining room; p, between the cargo area and the cold storage, dry food storage.

[0070] For a target passenger ship, the above demands can be classified according to the following features to facilitate planning of the elevator group layout.

[0071] 1) Vertical flow (passenger) during a specific period: a, b, e, f;

[0072] 2) Vertical flow (crew) during a specific period: c, h, i, j, k, l, m;

[0073] 3) Vertical flow (passenger) during a non-specific period: d, g;

[0074] 4) Vertical flow (crew) during a non-specific period: n;

[0075] 5) Passenger flow with small amount of personal belongings: a, b, d, e, f, g;

[0076] 6) Crew flow with small amount of personal belongings: c, n;

[0077] 7) Crew flow with goods: h, i, j, k, l, m;

[0078] 8) Main dining room meal delivery by escalator during a specific period (not discussed here): o;

[0079] 9) Goods transportation by lift platform during a specific period (not discussed here): p.

[0080] Further, in the present embodiment, the layout of the elevator group in step 3 is preliminarily planned so as to make the main demand features of the vertical traffic of the elevator group and the vertical flow demand between the respective spaces consistent, specifically:

[0081] Based on the determined two sub-spaces satisfying any of the plurality of sub-features with each other, the layout of the preliminary planning of the elevator group is performed so as to make the main demand features of the vertical traffic of the elevator group and the vertical flow demand between the respective spaces consistent.

[0082] As an example, the main flow routes for which the target passenger ship needs to provide vertical traffic service include:

[0083] 1) passenger main embarkation area → passenger elevator group A → passenger accommodation;

[0084] 2) passenger secondary embarkation area → passenger elevator group B → passenger accommodation;

[0085] 3) tender embarkation area → passenger elevator group C → passenger accommodation;

[0086] 4) crew embarkation area → crew / service elevator group D → crew accommodation;

[0087] 5) passenger accommodation → passenger elevator group E → leisure and entertainment area, shopping area, open deck area;

[0088] 6) main dining room → passenger elevator group F → leisure and entertainment area, shopping area, open deck area, passenger accommodation;

[0089] 7) secondary dining room → passenger elevator group G → leisure and entertainment area, shopping area, open deck area, passenger accommodation;

[0090] 8) specialty dining room → passenger elevator group H → leisure and entertainment area, shopping area, open deck area, passenger accommodation;

[0091] 9) theater → passenger elevator group I → leisure and entertainment area, shopping area, open deck area, passenger accommodation;

[0092] 10) medical center → passenger elevator group J → leisure and entertainment area, shopping area, open deck area, passenger accommodation;

[0093] 11) galley → crew / service elevator group K → freezer, dry provisions store;

[0094] 12) galley → crew / service elevator group L → pantry;

[0095] 13) laundry → crew / service elevator group M → passenger accommodation;

[0096] 14) dry waste disposal → crew / service elevator group N → each deck;

[0097] 15) Baggage area → Crew / service elevator group O → Passenger accommodation;

[0098] 16) Cargo area → Crew / service elevator group P → Shopping area;

[0099] 17) Control station, machinery space and other working spaces → crew / service elevator group Q → other working spaces or crew cabins;

[0100] The above elevator groups should be located within or near the associated spaces to ensure a rational flow path layout. Based on the above flow paths, a preliminary plan for the target passenger ship's elevator groups is developed, as shown in Table 2. Because the elevator traction equipment is located at the top of the elevator shaft, the service floors of each elevator group extend up to Deck 10. Passenger movement between Deck 10 and Deck 11 is conducted via fixed stairways or barrier-free stairways.

[0101] Table 2 Preliminary planning of target cruise ship elevator group

[0102]

[0103] If the initial layout planning process encounters a mismatch between the vertical traffic characteristics of the elevator group and the vertical flow demand characteristics between the various locations, feedback and adjust the location distribution, and then repeat steps 2 and 3.

[0104] In this embodiment, the configuration of the elevator group is simplified based on the main demand characteristics of vertical flow and the preliminary layout plan of the elevator group, including:

[0105] If the service objects in the elevator groups that meet the main demand characteristics of the vertical flow are the same, the layout areas are close, and the service time periods do not overlap or partially overlap, then one group of elevators can be used to meet multiple demand characteristics to reduce the number of elevator groups.

[0106] Specifically, if elevator groups meeting various demand characteristics serve the same target audience (passengers or crew members with cargo), are located in close proximity, and have non-overlapping or partially overlapping service hours, a single group of elevators can be used to meet multiple demand characteristics, reducing the number of elevator groups. At the same time, it is important to ensure that incompatible flow types do not overlap, such as passenger flow and crew (cargo) flow, which must not interfere with each other.

[0107] For the target passenger ship, the elevator group configuration is simplified as follows:

[0108] 1) Elevator groups C1, E1, F, and H1 are combined into (passenger) elevator group 1, which is used to meet the vertical flow needs of passengers between the shuttle boarding area and passenger cabins, between passenger cabins and the leisure and entertainment area / shopping area / open-air activity area, and between the main restaurant / specialty restaurant and the leisure and entertainment area / shopping area / open-air activity area / passenger cabins.

[0109] 2) Elevator group K1, Q1 combined as (crew) elevator group 2, which is used to meet the crew (with cargo) vertical flow requirements between the cold store / dry provisions store and 1 deck galley, between other work places.

[0110] 3) Elevator group L1, O1, Q2 combined as (crew) elevator group 3, which is extended to A deck, and is used to meet the crew (with cargo) vertical flow requirements between the galley and pantry, between the luggage area and passenger accommodation, between other work places.

[0111] 4) Elevator group K2, N, O2, Q3, Q4 combined as (crew) elevator group 4, which is used to meet the crew (with cargo) vertical flow requirements between the cold store / dry provisions store and 9 / 10 deck galley, between dry garbage disposal room and each deck, between the luggage area and passenger accommodation, between other work places.

[0112] 5) Elevator group A, B, C2, E2, G, H2 combined as (passenger) elevator group 5, which is used to meet the passenger vertical flow requirements between the passenger main / secondary embarkation area and passenger accommodation, between the tender embarkation area and passenger accommodation, between the passenger accommodation and leisure / recreation area / shopping area / outdoor activity area, between the secondary restaurant / specialty restaurant and leisure / recreation area / shopping area / outdoor activity area / passenger accommodation.

[0113] 6) Elevator group P, L2, Q5, Q6 combined as (crew) elevator group 6, which is used to meet the crew (with cargo) vertical flow requirements between the cargo area and shopping area, between the galley and pantry, between other work places.

[0114] 7) Elevator group E3, I, J combined as (passenger) elevator group 7, which is used to meet the passenger vertical flow requirements between the passenger accommodation and leisure / recreation area / shopping area / outdoor activity area, between the theater / medical center and leisure / recreation area / shopping area / outdoor activity area / passenger accommodation.

[0115] 8) Elevator group D, M, Q7, Q8 combined as (crew) elevator group 8, which is used to meet the crew (with cargo) vertical flow requirements between the crew embarkation area and crew accommodation, between the laundry and passenger accommodation, between other work places.

[0116] According to the above simplified flow, the target passenger ship elevator group simplified table is formed, see Table 3.

[0117] Table 3 Target passenger ship elevator group simplified table

[0118]

[0119]

[0120] Further, based on the vertical flow demand analysis and the elevator group layout, main working scenarios of the elevator group are set, and the main working scenarios at least include an elevator group working scenario for passenger vertical flow and an elevator group working scenario for crew vertical flow;

[0121] As an example, for a target passenger ship, the main working scenarios of the elevator group for passenger vertical flow include: a passenger embarkation / disembarkation scenario, a passenger arrival / departure from a theater scenario, a passenger arrival / departure from a dining room scenario, and the like. The main working scenarios of the elevator group for crew (with goods) vertical flow include: a crew daily shift scenario, a food transportation scenario from a main kitchen to a secondary dining room, a linen transportation scenario, a luggage transportation scenario, and the like. Here, the passenger embarkation / disembarkation scenario and the linen transportation scenario are taken as examples for detailed analysis.

[0122] 1) Passenger embarkation / disembarkation scenario: passengers embark / disembark from the passenger main embarkation / disembarkation area on both sides of the 3rd main vertical area on the 2nd deck, and reach / leave the deck layer where the passenger cabins are located through the elevator group 5 (part of the passengers can choose fixed stairways), and the passenger capacity is 2680.

[0123] 2) Linen transportation scenario: the target cruise ship main laundry room is located on the 5th main vertical area on the C deck, and the linen room is located on the 6th main vertical area on the C deck, and the linen is transported between the deck layer where the passenger cabins are located and the main laundry room and the linen room through the elevator group 8. Before the passenger cabin linen is changed, clean linen will be transported to the storage room on each deck or directly stored in the passenger cabin in advance, and then changed after the passenger checks out, and the recovered linen that needs to be washed is transported to the main laundry room

[0124] The working conditions of each main working scenario are respectively set, and the vertical flow constraint items under each main working scenario are determined, and specifically:

[0125] In each main working scenario, different working conditions are set according to different passenger flow modes, personnel shunting conditions, and elevator partition service conditions;

[0126] The vertical flow constraint items under each main working scenario at least include: the departure / arrival layer and the service layer of the elevator group under a single working condition, the running height of the elevator group, the total number of passengers / goods, the total time of personnel flow (with goods), the distribution of passengers / goods on each deck layer / placenta, and the inflow concentration rate.

[0127] As an example:

[0128] 1) Passenger embarkation / disembarkation scenario working condition A.1

[0129] Passengers embark / disembark from the passenger main embarkation area on both sides of the 3rd main vertical zone on the 2nd deck, and reach / leave the deck where the passenger cabins are located by elevator group 5. Passengers are not divided.

[0130] 2) Embarkation / disembarkation scenario A.2

[0131] Passengers embark / disembark from the passenger main embarkation area on both sides of the 3rd main vertical zone on the 2nd deck. 30% of passengers (119 people) on the 1st deck are divided and reach / leave the 1st deck by the nearby fixed gangway. Other passengers reach / leave the deck where the passenger cabins are located by elevator group 5.

[0132] 3) Embarkation / disembarkation scenario A.3

[0133] Passengers embark / disembark from the passenger main embarkation area on both sides of the 3rd main vertical zone on the 2nd deck, and reach / leave the deck where the passenger cabins are located by elevator group 5. Passengers are not divided, and elevator group 5 is divided into layers, with some elevators serving only the 1st and 4th decks, some elevators serving only the 5th and 6th decks, and the remaining elevators serving only the 7th, 8th, and 9th decks.

[0134] The elevator personnel distribution under the 3 scenarios of the embarkation / disembarkation scenario is shown in Table 4, and the vertical flow constraint is shown in Table 5.

[0148] In the present embodiment, the elevator type and basic parameters, respectively single elevator handling capacity, are determined, specifically:

[0149] According to the set requirements, it is determined whether to set a sightseeing elevator, whether there is an elevator machine room, and information of passenger occupancy space in the car;

[0150] As an example, it can be according to the owner's preference to select whether to set a sightseeing elevator, whether there is an elevator machine room, passenger occupancy space in the car, etc. The basic parameters of each elevator in the elevator group include: rated speed, rated load, car area, rated passenger capacity, acceleration, single opening and closing door time, etc.

[0151] The target passenger ship does not set a sightseeing elevator, the elevator shaft top is provided with a machine room, and the minimum passenger occupancy space in the car is 0.16 m 2 / person (the value is not specified in the Chinese standard, and the value is taken as 0.18 m 2 / person according to the British standard). The actual passenger capacity of the car according to the Chinese standard is converted according to the load divided by the weight of a single person, and the British standard is converted according to the car area divided by the single person occupancy area. The basic parameters of a single elevator in the elevator group 5 of the target passenger ship for the passenger embarkation / disembarkation scenario are shown in Table 8, and the basic parameters of a single elevator in the elevator group 8 for the linen transportation scenario are shown in Table 9.

[0156]

[0157] The handling capacity of each elevator in the elevator group under different working conditions of each main working scenario is analyzed by theoretical calculation or simulation, including at least the total time of a single elevator for a round trip and the 5-minute transportation capacity of a single elevator.

[0158] As an example, the handling capacity of each elevator in the elevator group under different working conditions of each scenario of the target passenger ship is calculated according to the Chinese standard and the British standard, respectively. The calculation results of the 3 working conditions of the passenger embarkation / disembarkation scenario and the 2 working conditions of the linen transportation scenario are shown in Table 10 and Table 11, respectively.

[0163]

[0164] In the embodiment, the elevator group elevator number and performance index are calculated, specifically:

[0165] Based on the single elevator handling capacity, combined with the vertical flow constraint term in different working conditions of each main working scene, the elevator group required elevator number in each working condition is obtained; the elevator group preliminary performance index in each working condition is obtained by theoretical calculation or simulation, at least including elevator group 5-minute handling capacity, elevator dispatching interval time and average waiting time.

[0166] As an example, the elevator group required elevator number and elevator group preliminary performance index in different working conditions of each scene of the target cruise ship are calculated according to the Chinese standard and the British standard respectively. The calculation results of passenger embarkation / disembarkation scene 3 working conditions and linen transportation scene 2 working conditions are shown in Table 12 and Table 13 respectively.

[0170]

[0171]

[0172] In the embodiment, the elevator group service quality evaluation is performed, specifically:

[0173] Based on the set standard, the elevator group service quality is evaluated, and the set standard includes the elevator dispatching interval time standard in the Chinese standard and the related evaluation index of elevator service quality in the British standard in office buildings.

[0174] Specifically, for the target passenger ship, the elevator group service quality is evaluated by referring to the Chinese standard and the British standard.

[0175] The Chinese standard gives the elevator dispatching interval time in the building, see Table 14. The dispatching interval time of the elevator group for passenger vertical flow under ideal working condition can refer to the corresponding standard value in the table for multi-storey building, and the dispatching interval time of the elevator group for crew (with goods) vertical flow is appropriately extended, which can refer to the corresponding standard value in the table for high-rise office building, hotel.

[0176] Table 14 Dispatching interval time of Chinese standard

[0177]

[0178] The British standard gives the relevant evaluation index of elevator service quality in office building, see Table 15 and Table 16. The service quality index of the elevator group for passenger vertical flow can refer to the standard value of the corresponding grade in the table according to the grade of the cruise ship and the demand of the ship owner, and the service quality index of the elevator group for crew (with goods) vertical flow is appropriately extended, which can refer to the corresponding standard value after reducing 1-2 grades.

[0179] The selection of the standard value of the service quality evaluation index of the elevator group should be approved by the ship owner to ensure that the performance index of the elevator group meets the demand of the ship owner.

[0180] Table 15 Service quality of office building

[0181]

[0182] Table 16 CIBSE modern office building service quality standard

[0183]

[0184] The service quality evaluation table of the target passenger ship elevator group 5 and elevator group 8 corresponding to the Chinese standard is shown in Table 17. It can be seen from Table 12 and Table 17 that although the zoning control of the elevator group can greatly improve the handling capacity of the elevator group, the service quality of part of the elevators may not be able to meet the standard value. Therefore, under the passenger embarkation / disembarkation scene according to the Chinese standard, the appropriate shunting of passengers (working condition A.2) is a more reasonable handling method. It can be seen from Table 13 and Table 17 that under the linen transportation scene, the elevator group 8 can better complete the service under the corresponding working condition.

[0185] Table 17 Service quality evaluation table of Chinese standard

[0186]

[0187] The target cruise ship elevator group 5 and elevator group 8 correspond to the service quality evaluation table of the British standard, as shown in Table 18. It can be seen from Table 12 and Table 18 that the dispatch interval time and the average waiting time of each elevator in the zoning control in working condition A.3 have a large difference, which makes the elevator group 5 a poor system in the evaluation according to the dispatch interval time in the working condition, and the service quality level of the elevator group 5 is 5 stars according to the evaluation of the other three performance indicators. Therefore, it is a more reasonable treatment to appropriately shunt passengers under the British standard passenger boarding / disembarking ship scene (working condition A.2). It can be seen from Table 13 and Table 18 that in the linen transportation scene, the elevator group 8 can better complete the service in the corresponding working condition, and the flow total time can be further shortened.

[0189]

[0190]

[0191] If the performance indicators of the elevator group do not meet the target passenger ship owner's requirements, repeat steps 6 to 8.

[0193] determining the number, layout, type, quantity and basic parameters of the elevator group of the target passenger ship, and forming a final configuration scheme of the elevator system of the target passenger ship.
