            Abstract : 
The thermoeconomics costs model of marine gas turbine generating unit is built based on modern thermoeconomics theory. The effects of equipment investment costs, fuel prices, operating and maintenance costs, finance interest rate, annual operating hours and water washing mean duration on thermoeconomics costs are researched. The results can provide guidance for Marine Integrated Full Electric Propulsion System prime movers arrangement and optimization.
