본 논문에서는 LNG 벙커링 바지에 대한 예인력을 계산하였다. 친환경 에너지원인 LNG(액화천연가스)의 전환을 위한 인프라로 LNG 벙커링 바지가 개발되고 있다. LNG 벙커링 바지의 경우, 부선의 형태로 개발되고 있으나 향후 운용관점에서 추진기 탑재 개조(Retrofit)를 통한 자항추진을 고려하고 있다. 따라서 LNG 벙커링 바지는 일반적인 예인바지와 비교하여 선박의 선형과 유사하기 때문에 선급의 부선 규칙을 통한 예인력은 과대 추정된다. 이를 극복하기 위해, 정수 중 저항은 Rankine source method를 이용한 조파저항을 고려하여 ITTC 1978 방법에 따라 계산하였고 파랑 중 부가저항은 NMRI의 단파장 보정이 고려된 수정된 방사에너지법을 이용하여 계산하였다. 계산된 정수 중 저항과 부가저항을 통해 예인저항 성능을 KR 선급의 부선 규칙과 비교 검토하였다.

The International Maritime Organization(IMO) has established Emission Control Areas(ECA) in the Baltic Sea, North Sea, and sea areas in the United States since 2012, and encourages the use of clean fuels such as Natural Gas(NG). To keep pace with the increase in international demand for LNG bunkering vessels, research for the localization of key equipment for LNG bunkering must also be performed in Korea. For research and development of core bunkering equipment and systems, in this study, heat transfer analysis and structural analysis were performed by modeling the saddle, which must first be secured structurally by directly receiving the load of the hose. As a result, the suitability of the model was reviewed by analyzing the temperature distribution and stress level through the analysis results of this study.

IMO의 규제인 신조 선박에 대한 NOx 80% 감축의 2016년 발효를 앞두고, 청정에너지인 LNG연료 선박 및 벙커링 선박의 보급이 유럽 선진국들을 중심으로 추진되고 있다. LNG 저장탱크는 LNG 벙커링의 필수 설비로 현재의 액체질소 등을 저장하는 극저온 액체 저장탱크와 동일한 구조이며, IMO의 "C"형 가압탱크인 내외 용기로 구성된 2중 탱크에 진공펄라이트 단열재가 충전되는 형식이다. 그러나 이 단열방식은 진공작업이 어렵고 일 LNG 기화량이 2.0 % 내외가 되어 보다 고효율의 탱크가 요구되어 진다. 본 연구에서는 진공과 단열재를 분리하여 내외탱크에 고진공을 적용하고 외부 탱크에 우레탄폼을 가설시킨 탱크 단열 방식을 새로이 고안하여 열해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과 본 개발 탱크는 진공도가 $10^{-3}Torr$ 이하일 때 일 기화량이 0.03 % 이하로 매우 적게 유지될 수 있고, $10^{-4}Torr$ 이하가 되면 일 기화량이 0.11 %가 되었다. 진공이 파괴되는 경우에도 현재 진공펄라이트 단열은 일 4.9 %의 증발이 발생하나, 새 고안 탱크는 일 증발율이 4.12 %가 되는 매우 효율이 높고 안전한 LNG 탱크 단열방식이 되었다.

The present paper describes a general procedure of the structural safety assessment for the independent type C tank of LNG bunkering ship. This strength assessment procedure consists of two main scheme, global Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model primarily for hull structure assessment and detailed LNG Tank structures FEA model including the cylindrical tank itself and saddle-support structures. Two kinds of mechanism are used, fixed and slides constraints in fore and rear of the saddle-support structures that result in a variation of the reaction forces. Finite Element (FE) analyses have been performed and verified by the strength acceptance criteria to evaluate the safety adequacy of yielding and buckling of the hull and supporting structures. The detail of FE model for an LNG type C tank and its saddle supports was made, which includes the structural members such as cylindrical tank shell, ring stiffeners, swash bulkhead, and saddle supports. Subsequently, the FE buckling analysis of the Type C tank has been performed under external pressure following International Gas Containment (IGC) code requirements. Meanwhile, the assessment is also performed for yielding and buckling strength evaluation of the cylindrical LNG tank according to the PD 5500 unfired fusion welded pressure vessels code. Finally, a complete procedure for assessing the structural strength of 500 CBM LNG cargo tank, saddle support and hull structures have been provided.

The use of gas as fuel, particularly liquefied natural gas (LNG), has increased in recent years owing to its lower sulfur and particulate emissions compared to fuel oil or marine diesel oil. LNG is a low temperature, volatile fuel with very low flash point. The major challenges of using LNG are related to fuel bunkering, storing, and handling during ship operation. The main components of an LNG fuel system are the bunkering equipment, fuel tanks, vaporizers/heaters, pressure build-up units (PBUs), and gas controlling units. Low-pressure dual-fuel (DF) engines are predominant in small LNG-powered vessels and have been operating in many small- and medium-sized ferries or LNG-fueled generators.(Tamura, K., 2010; Esoy, V., 2011[1][2]) Small ships sailing at coast or offshore rarely have continuous operation at constant engine load in contrast to large ships sailing in the ocean. This is because ship operators need to change the engine load frequently due to various obstacles and narrow channels. Therefore, controlling the overall system performance of a gas supply system during transient operations and decision of bunkering time under a very poor infrastructure condition is crucial. In this study, we analyzed the fuel consumption, the system stability, and the dynamic characteristics in supplying fuel gas for operating conditions with frequent engine load changes using a commercial analysis program. For the model ship, we selected the 'Econuri', Asia's first LNG-powered vessel, which is now in operation at Incheon Port of South Korea.
