선박에너지 개발을 위한 미래의 유력한 추진체로서 초전도 자력장을 이용한 선박을 들 수 있는데 이와 같은 경우에는 실험을 하기에는 비용이 엄청나게 소요되고 설비 자체가 복잡하기 때문에 CFD를 이용해서 초기 계\ulcorner을 구상하고 선체 주위의 유동장의 제어 및 기초 설계를 하여야 할 것이다. CFD계산을 통해 일반적으로 얻을 수 있는 것은 -압력 분포 -자유 표면 파고 -유속 분포 -유선 추적 -선체 표면의 응력 분포 -한계 유선 분포 -선미 와류 생성 과정 -선체 저항 계산 등으로 선형 개발에 필요한 기본 자료들이다. 여기서 CFD의 유용가치를 강조할 수 있는데 위의 많은 데이터를 실험을 통해서 얻으려면 막대한 경비와 노력이 투입되어야 한다. 또한 현재의 실험 시설로는 정량적으로 측정할 수 없는 부분도 일부 있다. CFD의 경우는 그러한 어려움은 없으나 꼭 필요한 것이 수치계산의 검증이다. 계산 결과의 유효성(validity)을 검증해야 한다는 의미이다. 계산은 실험을 통하여 반드시 비교 검토가 이루어져야 하며 이의 수단으로 선박 분 야에서는 Wigley 모형이나 Series 60와 같은 것들이 사용되고 잇다. 당 연구소의 저항추진연구 실에서는 CFD의 연구가 수년 전부터 소수의 인원을 중심으로 이루어져 왔다. 이와 관련하여 대표적인 몇 가지만 소개하고자 한다.

This paper deals with the procedure for developing a computer program which can predict the pressure fluctuation on the ship hull by solving the boundary value problem on the hull subject to the influence of the unsteady propeller and cavity motions. The program is applied to the solution of flow around a sphere under the influence of point sources simulating the propeller cavity, and then is compared with the analytic solution based on Butler's sphere theorem. The effect of free surface condition, either pressure-free or rigid-wall, upon the pressure distribution is studied. The computer code is also applied to a RO-RO ship, leading to the conclusion that the package may be useful for the analysis of excitation forces on the ship hull induced by the propeller in the design process.

Flow control devices, such as flow liners, are frequently introduced hi a cavitation tunnel in order to reduce the tunnel blockage effect, when a three-dimensional wake distribution is simulated using a complete ship model or a dummy model. In order to estimate the tunnel wall effect and to evaluate the effect of flow liners on the simulated wake distribution, a surface panel method is adopted for the calculation of the flow around a ship model and flow liners installed in a rectangular test section of a cavitation tunnel. Calculation results on the Sydney Express ship model show that the tunnel wall effect on the hull surface pressure distribution is negligible for less than 5% blockage and can be appreciable for more than 20% blockage. The flow liners accelerate the flow near the after body of the ship model, so that the pressure gradient there becomes more favorable and accordingly the boundary layer thickness would be reduced. Since the resulting wake distribution is assumed to resemble the full scale wake, flow liners can also be used to simulate an estimated full scale wake without modifying the ship model. Boundary layer calculation should be incorporated in order to correlate the calculated wake distribution with tole measured one.

It is necessary to obtain the well-documented local flow measurement data for the validation of CFD prediction of hydrodynamic performance. In the present paper the local flow fields around the stern region of a VLCC model with drift angles of $0^{\circ},\;5^{\circ},\;and\;10^{\circ}$ are measured. Mean velocity components are documented at St. 2 and A.P. of both port and starboard side of KVLCC in KRlSO towing tank. Flow information associated with the formation of four discrete vortices in the stern region is explored. The present experimental data can provide a good test case to validate the accuracy of numerical modeling for stern flow and maneuverability prediction of modern tanker hull forms.

선박이 천 흘수 및 수로를 운항하는 경우 바닥과 벽면의 영향으로 인해 선체침하 및 비대칭적인 힘이 선체 주위에 발생하여 바닥이나 다른 선박 혹은 수로의 벽에 충돌하는 현상이 발생한다. 특히, 수로가 많은 유럽이나 북미를 운항하는 해운회사와 항해사들은 선박의 충돌을 방지하기 위해서 중요한 문제로 다루고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 선박의 안전한 항해를 위해 수치해석을 이용하여 선박과 벽면 사이에 발생하는 유체역학적 힘, 즉 Sway force와 Yaw Moment를 정성적으로 추정하고자 하였다. 천 흘수 유동 해석용 프로그램을 작성하였으며, 검증을 위해서 Wigley 선형에 적용하여 h/T별로 계산을 수행하여 시험결과와 비교하였다. 그리고, 벽면효과를 해석 할 수 있는 프로그램을 작성하여 실적선인 원유운반선 2척에 대하여 3가지 파라메터, 즉 선속, 수심 그리고 선박과 벽면 사이 거리의 변화에 따른 다양한 계산을 수행하였다. 계산된 결과는 시험결과 및 기 발표된 수치해석 결과와 비교하였다. 기 발표된 논문에서는 시험결과와 계산결과가 상이한 결론을 보여 주었는데, 그 이유는 수치해석에 있어서 자유표면 문제를 선형화된 자유표면 조건식을 사용한 부분을 가장 큰 이유로 언급하였다. 하지만, 본 연구의 결과는 Sway force와 Yaw Moment가 기 발표된 논문의 시험결과와 정성적으로 일치함을 보여 주었다. 본 연구를 통해 수치해석 방법으로 선박에 작용하는 비대칭 유동에 대한 유체역학적인 힘을 정성적으로 추정할 수 있었고, 제한된 수로에서 선박의 조종성 예측 및 수로 설계시 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것이라고 판단되어 진다.

This paper provides numerical results of the simulation for the flow around the hull and the propeller of KCS model ship advancing in shallow water conditions. A finite volume method is used to solve the unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) equations, where the wave-making problem is solved by using a volume-of-fluid(VOF) method. The wave formed near the hull surface in shallow water conditions shows a deep trough dominant pattern that causes the loss of buoyancy followed by hull squat. The flow past the hull increases as the depth of water decreases. However, the axial flow velocity around the stern shows a reduction in magnitude by the effect of shallow water accompanied by the hull-propeller interaction. As a results, the thrust and torque coefficient increase about 8.3% and 6.2%, respectively for a depth of h/T=3.0 corresponding to a depth Froude number of $F_h=0.693$. The resistance coefficient increases about 11.6% at this Froude number condition.

A computer code has been developed to simulate three-dimensional viscous flows over a ship-stern. Semi-elliptic forms of Reynolds equations are adopted and numerically generated body-fitted coordinate systems are used to resolve complex geometries of the ship-hull. A standard form of $k-\varepsilon$ turbulence model is adopted for evaluation of the Reynolds stresses. Turbulent flows on a model with 3:1 elliptic sections and the SSPA-720 container ship model are predicted by using the code. Calculated pressure distributions of hull-surfaces and mean velocity distributions are generally in good agreements with measured values in wind-tunnels. But turbulent kinetic energies tend to be over-estimated near the stern in comparison with measured data.

The method using Rankine Soure distribution over the hull surface and undisturbed free surface was applied to calculate the free surface flow around a ship. The ship hull as well as a local portion of the undisturbed free surface arc geometrically represented by quadrilateral panels and the source density is determined so as to satisfy the linearized free surface condition based on the double model flow. The pressure distribution, wave resistance, wave profile and hydrodynamic sinkage force and trim moment for the Wigley hull and the Series 60 hull with $C_B=0.60$ were calculated in the fixed condition. The calculated results were compared with the measured values. The dependance of the solution on the panel arrangement, particularly on the free suraface, was also studied through 11 numerical test cases for the Wigley hull.

This paper presents the method for developing an optimum hull form with minimum wave resistance using SQP(sequential quadratic programming) as an optimization technique. The wave resistance is evaluated by a Rankine source panel method with non-linear free surface conditions and the ITTC 1957 friction line is used to predict the frictional resistance coefficient. The geometry of the hull surface is represented and modified using NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) surface patches. To verity the validity of the developed program the numerical calculations for Wigley hull and Series 60( $C_B=0.6$) hull have been performed and the results obtained by the numerical calculations have been compared with the original hulls.
