Abstract

The issues discussed in this article concern the energy efficiency of transport tasks carried out by the air SAR system in the Baltic Sea. Search and rescue (SAR) are rescue operations consisting of finding people in danger, providing them with help, and delivering them to a safe place. The transport task is an element of the rescue operations carried out in the open water area. It is carried out by a given type of helicopter from a strictly defined rescue base. The aim of the article is to develop a method of selecting the base and means of transport for the transport task carried out by the air SAR system, based on the assessment of energy efficiency of a given transport task. The article proposes a selection model; parameterization of the model was carried out, indicators of energy efficiency evaluation were determined, and limitations were indicated. In practical terms, the authors’ model of selection is presented on the example of transport tasks carried out by the air SAR system in the Polish zone of responsibility in the Baltic Sea.
