            Abstract : 
Assignments of the vessels change suddenly sometimes, so the vessels need several of operation plans on the marine steam power plant. Based on the thermodynamic calculation theory, maneuverability analysis model of steam-powered vessel is given with the maximum speed index for different operation plans of steam power plant. The result indicates that the maneuverability model is practical and efficient. And there is significance of using for reference for the settlement of maneuverability analysis of other types of power plants.
