This paper studies on the rudder shapes for the suppression of the cavitation around a horn-type rudder. To improve the problems due to cavitation, there have been several studies. However, these some studies are recognized as incomplete ways to suppress the rudder cavitation. In this study, the section shapes to suppress the cavitation phenomena are determined by moving the location of maximum thickness for reducing the curvature variation and changing the radius of leading edge. Also, in the pintle part, the curvature radius of the inlet outlet edge of rudder plate is changed. During the design of rudder shape, two-dimensional numerical simulations are firstly performed because those offer some advantages with that cavitation phenomena becomes predictable for a short time, and then the three-dimensional numerical simulations are performed to confirm the determination. The time mean distribution of the propeller slipstream is imposed on the inlet boundary condition. As some results, this paper shows the effects reducing the range of the occurrence of cavitation, and suggests the references on the design of a horn-type rudder for the suppression of cavitation phenomena.

To evaluate manoeuvring performance of merchant ships, the mathematical modeling group (MMG) or computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are used. However, it is difficult to use the MMG to evaluate the manoeuvring performance of fishing vessels, thus research using CFD simulations is necessary. Also, since the course-changing and turning ability is crucial in fishing operations, a rudder design suitable for fishing vessels is necessary. This study designs a rudder using National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) airfoil sections and evaluates its manoeuvring performance. A CFD model is used to evaluate the manoeuvring performance of the fishing vessel, and turning and zig-zag tests are conducted. The effectiveness of using CFD simulations based on Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations to assess the manoeuvring performance of fishing vessels was validated. No significant difference was found in the manoeuvring performance for hull forms and rudder designs for course-changing ability. However, the original hull form showed superior turning performance. Among five rudders with varying aspect ratios and shapes, the rudder with 5.5% aspect ratio had the best turning performance. Regarding the rudder design for fishing vessels, NACA airfoil was employed, and a rudder aspect ratio of 5.5% based on the immersed hull side area is recommended.

선박의 조종성능 추정 및 향상을 위한 이론적, 실험적 연구의 일환으로 최적방향타 설계를 위한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구는 크게 보아 방향타의 성능을 결정짓는 세 가지 주요특성, 즉 단면형상, 투영형상 및 가로세로비(aspect ratio)에 대한 연구와 특수단면형상에 대한 연구로 구성되어 있으며 각각의 특성에 대하여 실용적으로 유용한 설계방향 및 결론을 도출하였다. 특히 특수단면 형상중 돌고래꼬리형 단면형상(dolphin-tail type section shape)은 방향타의 단면으로 사용될 경우 방향타의 성능을 현저히 향상시킬 수 있는 가능성이 있음을 보여주고 있다.

최근 온실가스 배출량에 대한 규제가 높아지면서 IMO는 온실가스 배출량을 2050년까지 순 배출량 '0'을 목표로 하며 온실가스 규제를 강화하고 있다. 또한 조선/해양 분야에서는 추진 효율 향상, 구조 경량화와 같이 운항비 절감이 중요하다. 현재 이와 관련하여 구조 경량화와 고강성을 만족하기 위하여 3D 프린트 복합재료를 이용한 위상 최적화에 대한 연구가 수행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 3D 프린트 복합재료를 활용하여 선박 구조물인 방향타의 내부에 3가지 위상 형상(육각형, 사각형, 삼각형)을 적용하였다. 방향타에 위상 형상을 적용하였을 때 적합한 형상을 알아보기 위해 구조해석을 수행했다. 선속 8 knots의 조건에서 타 각 0°에서 30°까지 10° 간격으로 CFD 해석을 수행하였으며, CFD 해석 결과를 바탕으로 하중조건을 설정하였다. 방향타 내부 위상 형상을 고려한 구조 해석 결과 삼각형, 사각형, 육각형 위상 형상 순으로 우수한 성능을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 사각형 위상 형상을 가지는 방향타가 삼각형 위상 형상을 가지는 방향타 대비 78.5%의 무게를 가지며 경량화 측면을 고려하였을 때 사각형 위상 형상이 우수하다고 판단된다.

The optimal shape modeling of core parts through 3D modeling and structural analysis for the development of small and medium-sized ships. The goal is to improve the efficient structure of the hydraulic system for controlling the rudder among the core steering parts in small and medium-sized ships. Through 3D modeling and structural analysis, a new concept of tiller parts and a double-acting hydraulic cylinder control system were proposed and operational structural stability was evaluated. Structural analysis of the three different tiller designs that can be replaceable onto existing fishing vessels was conducted to derive the final shapes. The emphasis was placed on evaluating the structural stability of the key drive components, the tiller, pin, and cylinder rodin the maximum torque condition of the hydraulic cylinder.

This paper describes the effects of injection rate shaping on the combustion, fuel consumption and emission of $NO_x$ and soot of a medium duty diesel engine. The focus is on the influence of four different injection rate shapes, square type 1, square type 2, boot and ramp, with a variation of maximum injection pressure and start of injection (SOI). The experiments were carried out on a 1 liter single cylinder research diesel engine equipped with an amplifier-piston common rail injection system, allowing the adjustment of the injection pressure during the injection event and thus injection rate as desired. Two strategies to maintain the injected fuel mass constant were followed. One where rate shaping is applied at constant injection duration with different peak injection pressure and one strategy where rate shaping is applied at a constant peak injection pressure, but with variable injection duration. Injection rate shaping was found to have a large effect on the premixed and diffusion combustion, a significant influence on $NO_x$ emissions and depending on the followed strategy, moderate or no influence on soot emission. Only small effects on indicated fuel consumption were found.
