Combined diesel or gas ( CODOG) is a type of propulsion system for that need a maximum speed that is considerably faster than their cruise speed, particularly like modern or .
System
For every
propeller shaft there is one
diesel engine for cruising speed and one geared
gas turbine for high speed dashes. Both are connected to the shaft with
; only one system is driving the ship, in contrast to combined diesel and gas (CODAG) systems that can use the combined power output of both.
[Friedman, p. 206] The advantage of CODOG is a simpler gearing compared to CODAG, but it needs either more powerful or additional gas turbines to achieve the same maximum power output. The disadvantage of CODOG is that the
fuel efficiency at high speed is poor compared to CODAG.
