Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3118102A1] A tunnel member assembly (41a) adapted for attaching in or onto a hull of a vessel with a propeller that is rotatably mounted with respect to the hull and a nozzle (30) surrounding the propeller. The tunnel member assembly comprises a casing (64) adapted for mounting the tunnel member assembly in or onto the hull, and a tunnel member (42a), which is coupled to and moveable with respect to the casing between: - a retracted state, wherein the tunnel member is removed from the nozzle, and - an extended state, wherein the tunnel member defines at least a part of an adjustable flow tunnel (40) for conveying a flow of water towards the propeller, and wherein the tunnel member abuts the nozzle to form a sealing engagement for maintaining an undeipressure inside the flow tunnel.
