소형 어선의 조업 환경을 개선하고자 하는 선주와 어민 입장에서 연안에서 번번히 발생하는 그물 걸림이나 충돌시 손상이 적은 추진장치를 저렴하게 공급받기를 원한다. 어선의 고속화 및 낚시전용선 개발 추제에 부응하여 어선용 소형 물제트 추진장치의 특성을 파악하고, 시스템의 개념 설계, 시제품 제작과 시운전 시험을 통하여 실용화 가능성을 검토하였다. 어선의 저항 감소, 캐비테이션 억제 등과 관련된 한계 기술을 개발하는 후속 연구가 진행되고 있다.

This paper describes the performance of small waterjet propulsion system and show the influence of performance for nozzle shape and area. The installed engine sets a limit on maximum power in below 1800 rpm for fuel saving. Our designated target is reached by redesign of the impeller considering engine characteristics and extention of nozzle pararell part. The results of the full-scale ships are compared with thoes of the model test. In the future, those experimental data will be applied to the relation study between engine characteristics and powering performance prediction.

In order to investigate efficiency and flowfield charateristics of the intake-diffuser for the ship waterjet propulsion, new experimental verification technology was set up in the cavitation tunnel. 1-hole and 5-hole pilot tubes were designed and manufactured to measure the pressure and velocity distributions at intake-diffuser entrance and impeller inlet. The calibration of the 5-hole pilot tubes is conducted at the cavitation tunnel The cavitation inception occurs at the intake lip, and the occurrence position depends on IVR (Inlet Velocity Ratio) condition. The present experimental device will be applied sufficiently for the development of the design and performance improvement technologies.
