A rational method is presented for estimating the power increase of a ship at sea. A probabilistic approach is applied to determine the weather condition at sea, A comparison is made between some full-scale data and the result of Swift's method. A comparison is also made to find differences among the results of eight kind methods for the wind added resistance of a VLCC in head wind. The mean difference between the results is 7％, in general, for a given relative wind speed.

The aircraft engine is to generate thrust for the maneuver of aircraft and to provide the power to the related hydraulic system and electrical system. Since the power provided to the systems is extracted from the high pressure compressor of aircraft engine, the extracted power is called horsepower extraction (HPX). If the HPX provided from the engine is smaller than the HPX required from the related systems, there could be abnormal engine behavior, like engine rollback or stall. Analysis on comparing the required HPX and the engine HPX capability had been performed during the T/A-50 FSD (Full Scale Development) period. The analysis results make the engine schedule changed, and T/A-50 flight test has been performed with the changed engine schedule. The analysis results and changing the engine control schedule were verified to be valid with the flight test results.
