FSICR - Minimum Propulsion Power
Minimum propulsion power (MCR) for a given ice class and ship size per FSICR formulation, based on displacement and waterline beam.
Minimum MCR
3,406kW
Formula, assumptions, and limits
Simplified screening based on FSICR Annex IV; actual formula includes additional hull-form and resistance terms. For new-build projects always defer to the full class method with hull survey.
