When sailing through the water, the ship has to work against wind and waves. The water on the underwater hull and the air on the surface hull cause frictional resistance on the hull due to their flow behavior, which ultimately has to be bridged by the propulsion system. The dimensioning and design of this system and especially of the power generator depend on the ship’s resistance.
