On the Calculation of Propulsive Characteristics of a Bulk-Carrier Moving in Head Seas
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article On the Calculation of Propulsive Characteristics of a Bulk-Carrier Moving in Head Seas S. Polyzos and G. Tzabiras * School of Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, 15780 Athens, Greece; [email protected] * Correspondence: tzab@fluid.mech.ntua.gr; Tel.: +30-210-772-1107 Received: 14 September 2020; Accepted: 8 October 2020; Published: 9 October 2020 Abstract: The present work describes a simplified Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach in order to calculate the propulsive performance of a ship moving at steady forward speed in head seas. The proposed method combines experimental data concerning the added resistance at model scale with full scale Reynolds Averages Navier–Stokes (RANS) computations, using an in-house solver. In order to simulate the propeller performance, the actuator disk concept is employed. The propeller thrust is calculated in the time domain, assuming that the total resistance of the ship is the sum of the still water resistance and the added component derived by the towing tank data. The unsteady RANS equations are solved until self-propulsion is achieved at a given time step. Then, the computed values of both the flow rate through the propeller and the thrust are stored and, after the end of the examined time period, they are processed for calculating the variation of Shaft Horsepower (SHP) and RPM of the ship’s engine. The method is applied for a bulk carrier which has been tested in model scale at the towing tank of the Laboratory for Ship and Marine Hydrodynamics (LSMH) of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA).

2. Bulbous Bow Design and Construction Historical Origin
2. Bulbous Bow Design and Construction Ship Design I Manuel Ventura MSc in Marine Engineering and Naval Architecture Historical Origin • The bulbous bow was originated in the bow ram (esporão), a structure of military nature utilized in war ships on the end of the XIXth century, beginning of the XXth century. Bulbous Bow 2 1 Bulbous Bow • The bulbous bow was allegedly invented in the David Taylor Model Basin (DTMB) in the EUA Bulbous Bow 3 Introduction of the Bulbous Bows • The first bulbous bows appeared in the 1920s with the “Bremen” and the “Europa”, two German passenger ships built to operate in the North Atlantic. The “Bremen”, built in 1929, won the Blue Riband of the crossing of the Atlantic with the speed of 27.9 knots. • Other smaller passenger ships, such as the American “President Hoover” and “President Coolidge” of 1931, started to appear with bulbous bows although they were still considered as experimental, by ship owners and shipyards. • In 1935, the “Normandie”, built with a bulbous bow, attained the 30 knots. Bulbous Bow 4 2 Bulbous Bow in Japan • Some navy ships from WWII such as the cruiser “Yamato” (1940) used already bulbous bows • The systematic research started on the late 1950s • The “Yamashiro Maru”, built on 1963 at the Mitsubishi shipyard in Japan, was the first ship equipped with a bulbous bow. • The ship attained the speed of 20’ with 13.500 hp while similar ships needed 17.500 hp to reach the same speed.

Ship Design Decision Support for a Carbon Dioxide Constrained Future
Ship Design Decision Support for a Carbon Dioxide Constrained Future John Nicholas Calleya A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of University College London. Department of Mechanical Engineering University College London 2014 2 I, John Calleya confirm that that the work submitted in this Thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources I confirm that this has been indicated in the Thesis. Abstract The future may herald higher energy prices and greater regulation of shipping’s greenhouse gas emissions. Especially with the introduction of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI), tools are needed to assist engineers in selecting the best solutions to meet evolving requirements for reducing fuel consumption and associated carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. To that end, a concept design tool, the Ship Impact Model (SIM), for quickly calculating the technical performance of a ship with different CO2 reducing technologies at an early design stage has been developed. The basis for this model is the calculation of changes from a known baseline ship and the consideration of profitability as the main incentive for ship owners or operators to invest in technologies that reduce CO2 emissions. The model and its interface with different technologies (including different energy sources) is flexible to different technology options; having been developed alongside technology reviews and design studies carried out by the partners in two different projects, “Low Carbon Shipping - A Systems Approach” majority funded by the RCUK energy programme and “Energy Technology Institute Heavy Duty Vehicle Efficiency - Marine” led by Rolls-Royce.

(CWP) Handbook of Fishery Statistical Standards Annex LIII
Coordinating Working Party on Fishery Statistics (CWP) Handbook of Fishery Statistical Standards Annex LIII: Length of Fishery Vessels (Approved at the 11th Session of the CWP, 1982) Length overall (o/l): The most frequently used and preferred measure of the length of a fishing vessel is the length overall. This refers to the maximum length of a vessel from the two points on the hull most distant from each other, measured perpendicular to the waterline Other measures of the length of vessels are: Waterline length (w/l) refers to the length of the designed waterline of the vessel from the stern to the stern. This measure is used in determining certain properties of a vessel for example, the water displacement; Length between perpendiculars (p/p) refers to the length of a vessel along the waterline from the forward surface of the stern, or main bow perpendicular member, to the after surface of the sternpost, or main stern perpendicular member. This is believed to give a reasonable idea of the vessel’s carrying capacity, as it excludes the small, often unusable volume contained in her overhanging ends. On some types of vessels this is, for all practical purposes, a waterline measurement. In a vessel with raked stern, naturally this length <change as the draught of the ship changes, therefore it is measured from the defined loaded condition. p/p Length between perpendiculars w/l Waterline length o/a Length overall b Breadth f Freeboard d Draught Coordinating Working Party on Fishery Statistics (CWP) Handbook of Fishery Statistical Standards Vessel size (length overall in Code meters) Lower limit Upper limit 210 0 5.9 221 6 11.9 222 12 17.9 223 18 23.9 224 24 29.9 225 30 35.9 230 36 44.9 240 45 59.9 250 60 74.9 260 75 99.9 270 100 and over Annex LVII: Vessel size (Approved by CWP-11, 1982) .

Impact of Hard Fouling on the Ship Performance of Different Ship Forms
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article Impact of Hard Fouling on the Ship Performance of Different Ship Forms Andrea Farkas 1, Nastia Degiuli 1,*, Ivana Martić 1 and Roko Dejhalla 2 1 Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, University of Zagreb, Ivana Luˇcića5, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia; [email protected] (A.F.); [email protected] (I.M.) 2 Faculty of Engineering, University of Rijeka, Vukovarska ulica 58, 51000 Rijeka, Croatia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +38-516-168-269 Received: 3 September 2020; Accepted: 24 September 2020; Published: 26 September 2020 Abstract: The successful optimization of a maintenance schedule, which represents one of the most important operational measures for the reduction of fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emission, relies on accurate prediction of the impact of cleaning on the ship performance. The impact of cleaning can be considered through the impact of biofouling on ship performance, which is defined with delivered power and propeller rotation rate. In this study, the impact of hard fouling on the ship performance is investigated for three ship types, keeping in mind that ship performance can significantly vary amongst different ship types. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are carried out for several fouling conditions by employing the roughness function for hard fouling into the wall function of CFD solver. Firstly, the verification study is performed, and the numerical uncertainty is quantified. The validation study is performed for smooth surface condition and, thereafter, the impact of hard fouling on resistance, open water and propulsion characteristics is assessed.

Peters on (Fast) Powerboats
Peters On (Fast) Powerboats The author’s eponymous Florida-based yacht design firm has developed some of the most successful high-performance production and custom powerboats in the world, across a broad range of categories: flats skiffs, sportfishermen, motoryachts, and offshore raceboats. Here, in Part 1, he presents his office’s consistent approach to the design process. by Michael Peters In the 18 years that Professional BoatBuilder has been producing, or Artwork courtesy of MPYD co-producing, the IBEX trade show, we have rarely repeated a seminar topic, even though the seminar program has offered upward of five dozen sessions per show. One notable exception was Michael Peters’s IBEX ’02 presentation titled “High-Speed Boat Design.” Audience response was so enthusiastic, we asked Peters to present it again, which he finally agreed to do…at IBEX ’08. But he refused to simply reprise his ’02 talk, because technology had evolved, and so had Peters. Having designed several of the fastest powerboats on the planet, he decided to back off from that scary end of the spectrum. What follows is Peters’s IBEX presentation in Miami Beach in 2008, adapted for print publication—Ed. hat exactly is high speed ?

Knowing Your Boat Means Knowing Its Wake
Knowing your boat means knowing its wake This is an illustrated guide to wave wake that expands upon the basics outlined in the low wake guide “Wake up? Slow Down”, which is available at: http://dpipwe.tas.gov.au/Documents/Guide-to-Low-Wave-Wake-Boating.pdf We all know ‘stow it – don’t throw it’ but what about what Bryce Courtenay’s Yowie said to the Dirty Rotten Rubbish Grumpkin: “not thinking is the same as not caring”? Here are 18 illustrations to help boaters think about their wake and its potential erosive impacts in sheltered, restricted or shallow waters. Environmental effects of wave wake In the open sea wave wake is likely to have little environmental effect since the waves are small compared to those that might occur naturally. It’s a very different matter in sheltered waters like riverine estuaries. The soft banks and beds of many Tasmanian waterways are vulnerable to damage from boat wake and prop wash. Typical easily-affected landforms include estuaries, inlets, lakes and lagoons; places where natural wave energy tends to be low. Banks of peat or mud, shallow lagoons or lakes with muddy beds and sandy deposits in upper estuaries are all areas of risk. Wake striking the banks can cause rapid and severe erosion, exposing the roots of vegetation and causing the banks to collapse. Wake impact and prop wash can also churn up fine bed sediments – the impact on bed and banks degrades the aquatic environment for plants and animals. In some popular boating and cruising areas, the effects of wake damage have been severe – for example, on the lower Gordon River, long stretches of bank have been washed away, with mature Huon pines and myrtles toppling into the river.
