The excessive cost of building ships causes the instability of payability, which manage poorly fishing vessels longer than 24m. As a result, an officer evades embarkation and a vicious circle is repeated. In this study, the optimal engine horsepower system for fishing vessels longer than 24m was invented to develop the most efficient engine horsepower, and also a database program for the most efficient engine horsepower has been developed based on the type of and their size.

This paper describes a statistical analysis method for predicting a coast fishing boat's effective horsepower. The EHP estimation method for small coast fishing boats was developed, based on a statistical regression analysis of model test results in a circulating water channel. The statistical regression formula of a fishing boat's effective horsepower is determined from the regression analysis of the resistance test results for 15 actual coast fishing boats. This method was applied to the effective horsepower prediction of a G/T 4 ton class coast fishing boat. From the estimation of the effective horsepower using this regression formula and the experimental model test of the G/T 4 ton class coast fishing boat, the estimation accuracy was verified under 10 percent of the design speed. However, the effective horsepower prediction method for coast fishing boats using the regression formula will be used at the initial design and hull-form development stage.

The existing fisheries managers ignored the fishery environment changes, have built competitively vessels of efficiency superiority with related corporations, and have captured indisciminately fisheries resourecs. The economical engine horsepower selection model for fishing vessels shorter than 24m is developed. Also, the economical engine horsepower selection model system is verified by the existing vessels, and the optimum vessel scale and engine horsepower classified by the type of fishery and scale are proposed.

Motivated by a recent work, a fuzzy-power-controller(FPC) is designed for the relieving-horsepower control of output variable pump with electrical proportional valve and actually implemented on the industrial excavator. In order to calculate the output power of pump with input of FPC, a linear discrete time model of load system to pump is obtained and the result is applied to control the engine-pump coupled system by software without pressure and flow sensor. The FPC controls the engine and pump coupled system by relieving horsepower control according to the change of load and the running conditions in relieving horsepower control are selected by fuzzy inference engine. A case study is peformed through the construction of the control device and installation on the excavator. It shows that the relieving-horsepower control system with the FPC, as suggested in this paper, is superior to the conventional PID controllers. And also, the excavator, with the FPC, shows that the power-loss of the coupled system is reduced and the running speed of the hydraulic actuator is enhanced.

Trawl fishing is a fishing method in which a large, motorized trawler tows a bag-shaped net to catch fish living at the bottom or middle layers. For a trawl gear, it is of utmost importance to select the gear size and towing speed suitable for the effective horsepower (EHP) of the trawler in the design stage. In general, the power required to move an object is proportional to the product of the object speed and resistance; therefore, there are various choices for the gear resistance and towing speed given the effective horsepower of the trawler. However, there have been few studies on the gear design of an appropriate scale for the towing speed given the effective horsepower of the trawler. In this study, the resistance and shape of three types of midwater trawl gears were analyzed using SimuTrawl, a computer simulation tool. In addition, the relationship between the propulsion force and speed of the ship was clarified when the size and effective horsepower of the trawler were determined. Finally, we suggested the relationship between the towing speed and the resistance of the gear when the trawler towed the net was investigated, and a specific method of selecting the gear size according to the towing speed.

The air pollutant emission from the railroad diesel locomotive is still a significant environmental concern in many countries including Korea and Unites States. The emission characteristics of the railroad diesel locomotive were extensively studied in this study. Particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen oxides ($NO_x$) emitted from a large locomotive engine (2-cycle, 16-cylinder, and 3,000-horsepower) under various engine-rating conditions was analyzed with a scanning mobility particle sizer and a gas stack sampler by using a dilution tunnel. We could gain the emission values of 2.1 g/horsepower-hour for PM and 42.7 g/horsepower-hour for $NO_x$. We proposed the emission reduction goal of the railroad diesel locomotive for Korea in comparison with the regulation of United States.

The aircraft engine is to generate thrust for the maneuver of aircraft and to provide the power to the related hydraulic system and electrical system. Since the power provided to the systems is extracted from the high pressure compressor of aircraft engine, the extracted power is called horsepower extraction (HPX). If the HPX provided from the engine is smaller than the HPX required from the related systems, there could be abnormal engine behavior, like engine rollback or stall. Analysis on comparing the required HPX and the engine HPX capability had been performed during the T/A-50 FSD (Full Scale Development) period. The analysis results make the engine schedule changed, and T/A-50 flight test has been performed with the changed engine schedule. The analysis results and changing the engine control schedule were verified to be valid with the flight test results.

As the hull form of Korean fishing vessels is different from that of Japanese fishing vessels, the statistical regression analysis results of the resistance estimation for the Japanese fishing vessels is not able to be employed for the Korean fishing vessels just as it is. In this paper, it is introduced to an effective horsepower estimation method for the Korean domestic coastal fishing vessels, which is based on the statistical regression analysis of the model test results of the Japanese fishing vessels and the adjustment of those regression factors using the hull form data and model test results of Korean fishing vessels. The estimation results of the effective horsepower using the present prediction method are compared with experimental data. The comparison results show good agreements in the conventional speed range of fishing vessels.

For preliminary estimation of ships' machinery weights, many papers giving well-judged data and discussions for rational method of estimation, such as [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], are available, however, they are mostly concerned with large ships propelled by power more than about 2, 000 horsepower. Regarding the medium and small-sized ships, as far as the author is aware, fragmental data and vague discussions found in various technical literature are the all available. In this paper, available data concerned with machinery weights of commercial ships propelled by direct-drive diesel plants of power below 3, 000 horsepower with single screw propeller are collected and analysed to obtain systematic data Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 as weight to power ratio versus power per shaft diagrams together with suplementary data Fig. 1 and Fig. 3. Influences of various factor such as revolutions per minute, mean effective pressure, type and construction of the main units on machinery weights are also investigated in detail to give a better guidance for logical and rational utlization of the proposed diagrams in preliminary estimation of machinery weights.
