In order to study correlation of the propeller cavitation performance between a full-scale ship and a model ship for the MR Tanker, the full-scale ship and the model tests were conducted. The full-scale ship test is composed of cavitation observation, pressure fluctuation and noise measurements, which are conducted using 2 observation windows and 8 pressure transducers installed inside the full-scale ship above the propeller. The model test in the Large Cavitation Tunnel(LCT) was conducted at the same conditions as that of the full-scale ship and its results are compared with those of the full-scale ship. Through the model-ship correlation analysis, it is considered that the experimental technique for the MR Tanker class ship was verified in LCT.

This study has been conducted to compare two cargo handling systems on MR tanker and Panamax tanker. Submerged hydraulic cargo pumps with hydraulic power packs and frequency converter controlled electric deepwell pumps will be investigated and compared on all aspects of initial cost, installation, operation and maintenance. The result of investigation shows Electric Systems have less manufacturing costs, higher environmental friendliness and reliable operation compare to Hydraulic Systems. Furthermore, the present experimental data will provide important database for Electric Systems onboard new ships and practical and empirical guidelines are constructed for further determine the design of the Electric Systems.

Propeller cavitation extent, pressure fluctuation induced by cavitation, pressure distribution on propeller blade, total velocity distribution and nominal wake distribution for a MR Taker were computed in both conditions of model test and sea trial using a code STAR-CCM⁺. Then some of the results were compared with model test data at LCT and full-scale measurement (Ahn et al (2014); Kim et al (2014)] in order to confirm the availability of a numerical prediction method and to get the physical insight of local flow around a ship and propeller. The nominal wake distributions computed and measured by LDV velocimeter on the variation of on-coming velocity show the wake contraction characteristics proposed by Hoekstra (1974). The numerical prediction of propeller cavitation extent on a blade angular position and pressure fluctuation level on each location of pressure sensors are very similar with the experimental results.

After CSR is in effect, a matter of concern is how many to increase in terms of weight due to apply it to the ship and what difference it is comparing between existing rule and CSR rule. The concepts of CSR are to make the ship safer, more robust. and the design requirement clearer. Furthermore it pursues longer life of ship in fatigue strength. By reasons of those, most of requirements are stronger than before. Therefore many part of ship should be reinforced and the weight of ship can be increased. Under those circumstances, the builder should make an effort to define the CSR and to find the methods to manage well this situation. In this study, we performed 3D Cargo hold and Fine-mesh F.E analysis and deduced a conclusion and introduced new detail design.
