Ice Resistance

The estimation of ship resistance in ice is a fundamental area of research and poses a substantial challenge for the design and safe use of ships in ice-covered waters. In order to estimate the ice resistance with greater reliability, we develop in this paper an improved Lindqvist formulation for the estimation of bending resistance in level ice based on the superposition of double-plates. In the developed method, an approximate model of an ice sheet is firstly presented by idealizing ice sheeta as the combination of a semi-infinite elastic plate and an infinite one resting on an elastic foundation. The Mohr–Coulomb criterion is then introduced to determine the ice sheet’s failure. Finally, an improved Lindqvist formulation for estimation of ice resistance is proposed. The accuracy of the developed formulation is validated using full-scale test data of the ship KV Svalbard in Norway, testing the model as well as the numerical method. The effect of ice thickness, stem angle and breadth of bow on ship resistance is further investigated by means of the developed formulation.

Flow Features

Energy saving devices (ESD) such as propeller ducts, pre-swirl stators, pre-nozzles, etc have been explored as a more economic and reliable approach to reduce energy consumption for both in-operation and newly design ships over the past decades. Those energy saving devices work in the principle of reducing ship resistance and improving propulsion efficiency as well as hull-propeller interactions. Potential saving from various types of ESD have been reported in literature from the range of 3–9% [1] for propulsion efficiency dependent on different measures. Deployment of those devices on actual full-scale ships has been limited over the past years. One of the key obstacles in application of ESD is the lack of confidence in measuring its efficiency on full-scale ships in actual operational conditions. Advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has provided an alternative approach from model scale test to better understand uncertainties in prediction of ESD efficiency in full-scale ship operations [Shin et al, 2013]. In this work a high fidelity CFD model is presented for investigation effects of pre-nozzles on propulsion efficiency and ship resistance. The model is based on the Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) solver with different turbulent models including a hybrid detached eddy simulation (DES) approach for predictions of complex near body flow features as well as in the wake regions from hull and propeller. The model is validated with model test for both towing and self-propulsion conditions. Finally a study of pre-nozzle effects on propeller efficiency as well as hull-propeller interaction is presented and compared with available experimental data (Tokyo 2015 Workshop). The current work constitutes a fundamental approach towards designing more efficient ESD for a specific hull form and propeller.

Comparison Of The Results

The evaluation of ship resistance is of paramount importance having a decisive impact on the economic performances and efficiency depending on mission. If new IMO requirements through the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) are taken into account the necessity to have more and more accurate tools capable to consider the influences of different parameters became mandatory. The availability of towing tank facilities and the full scale trials are the practical means in order to be able to confirm the accuracy of theoretical formulations and to define the limits of CFD applications. Based on the results of the towing tank tests, a direct comparison with the results provided by classical methods and CFD computations can be systematically can be performed. On the other hand, the influences of the modifications operated on the fore part of the ship aretheoretically evaluated and compared with the towing tank results. Consequently, the paper is focused on the comparison of the results evaluated using different tools which have been carried out for a Chemical Tanker built by Constanta Shipyard Romania.
