프로펠러 표면의 생물 부착이 프로펠러 성능에 상당한 영향을 미치지만 프로펠러 표면 거칠기와 관련된 연구는 상대적으로 선체 표면에 비하여 많지 않다. 본 연구에서는 Schultz(2007)가 발표한 Granville's similarity-law scaling 절차에 기초하여 실선 7 m 크기의 탱커 프로펠러에 표면 부착물 상태가 서로 다른 3가지 경우를 고려하여 프로펠러 단독 효율의 감소의 변화를 Lifting surface code를 사용하여 수치적 계산을 수행하여 효율을 비교하였다. 본 논문에서의 결과는 표면 거칠기가 큰 석회질 부착물($k_s=0.001$)은 선박 설계 속도(J=0.5)에서 최대 15 %의 프로펠러 효율 감소를 보였음을 확인하였으며 이는 선박 운항 시 생물 부착에 의한 효율 감소에 대한 평가가 고려되어야 한다는 점을 나타내고 있다.

The fuel consumption of marine diesel engines holds paramount importance in contemporary maritime transportation and shapes energy efficiency strategies of ocean-going vessels. Nonetheless, a noticeable gap in knowledge prevails concerning the influence of ship hull conditions and propeller roughness on fuel consumption. This study bridges this gap by utilizing artificial intelligence techniques in Matlab, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to comprehensively investigate these factors. We propose a time-series prediction model that was built on numerical simulations and aimed at forecasting ship hull and propeller conditions. The model's accuracy was validated through a meticulous comparison of predictions with actual ship-hull and propeller conditions. Furthermore, we executed a comparative analysis juxtaposing predictive outcomes with navigational environmental factors encompassing wind speed, wave height, and ship loading conditions by the fuzzy clustering method. This research's significance lies in its pivotal role as a foundation for fostering a more intricate understanding of energy consumption within the realm of maritime transport.

A marine propeller is designed for preventing cavitation priority. Cavitation is a phenomenon which is defined as the vibration or noise by dropping the pressure on the high-speed rotation of the propeller. There has to be a enough thrust on the low-speed rotation for preventing cavitation. Thus, it has to be considered in the increasing of the number of blade and the angle of wing to design the propeller. In addition, flow resistance will be increasing by narrowing the width between blades. So high quality surface roughness of the hub to minimize flow resistance is required. Interference problems with tool and neighboring surfaces often take place from this kind of characteristics of the propeller. During 5-Axis machining of these propellers, the excessive local interference avoidance, necessary to avoid interference, leads to inconsistency of cutter posture, low quality of machined surface. Therefore, in order to increase the surface quality, it is necessary to minimize the cutter posture changes and create a continuous tool path while avoiding interference. This study, by using a MC-space algorithm for interference avoidance and a MB-spline algorithm for continuous control, is intended to create a 5-Axis machining tool path with excellent surface quality. Also, an effectiveness is confirmed through a verification manufacturing.

This paper presents a preliminary study of the influence of roughness due to marine propeller blades machining on their performance. A blade surface finish that has been roughened by corrosion, cavitation and other phenomena, leads to a power penalty. Thus propellers manufacturers tend to propose blades of great surface finish, even mirror-polished. However achieving such surface finish increases manufacturing costs. With modem manufacturing means, propellers can now be machined while preserving a good surface finish. We have studied the influence of manufacturing strategy on an aspect of hydrodynamic performance, cavitation.
