A full-scale field trial in ice-covered sea is one of the most important tasks in the design of icebreaking ships. The first Korean icebreaking research vessel 'ARAON', after her delivery in late 2009, had a sea ice field trial in the Arctic Sea during July-August, 2010. This paper describes the test procedures and data analysis on the icebreaking performance of the IBRV ARAON. The data gathered from the icebreaking performance test in the Chukchi Sea and the Beaufort Sea during the Arctic voyage of ARAON includes the speed and engine power of the ship as well as sea ice thickness and strength data. The air temperature, wind speed and heading of the ship were also measured during each sea ice trial. The ARAON was designed to break 1 m thick level ice with a flexural strength of 630kPa at a continuous speed of 3knots. She is registered as a KR POLAR 10 class ship. The principal dimensions of ARAON are 110 m, 19 m and 6.8 m in length, breadth and draft respectively. She is equipped with four 3,500kW diesel-electric main engines and two Azipod type propulsion motors. Four sea ice trials were carried out to understand the relationship between the engine power and the ship speed, given the Arctic ice condition. The analysis shows that the ARAON was able to operate at 1.5knots in a 2.5m thick medium ice floe condition with the engine power of 5MW, and the speed reached 3.1 knots at the same ice floe condition when the power increased to 6.6MW. She showed a good performance of speed in medium ice floe compared to the speed performance in level ice. More detailed analysis is summarized in this paper.

The speed performances of ice sea trial on the Arctic(2010 & 2011) area were shown different results depend on the ice floe size. Penetration phenomena of level ice was not happened on medium ice floe and tore up by the impact force because the mass of medium ice floe is similar to the mass of Araon which is Korean ice breaking research vessel and did not shut up by the ice ridge or iceberg. The sea trial on the Amundsen sea was performed at the big floe which is classified by WMO(World Meteorological Organization). Three measurements of ice properties and five results of speed trial were obtained with different ice thicknesses and engine powers. To evaluate speed of level ice trial and model test results at the same ice thickness and engine power, the correction method of HSVA(Hamburg Ship Model Basin) was used. The thickness, snow effect, flexural strength and friction coefficient were corrected to compare the speed of sea trial. The analyzed speed at 1.03m thickness of big floe was 5.85 knots at 10MW power and it's 6.10 knots at 1.0m ice thickness and the same power. It's bigger than the results of level ice because big floe was also slightly tore up by the impact force of vessel based on the observation of recorded video.

최근 ISO에서는 속도 시운전의 결과를 보정하는 방법과 시운전 방법 자체를 표준화하는 움직임을 보이고 있다. 그 주요내용 중에 하나는 과학적이고, 신뢰성 있는 시운전 계측이다. 이러한 흐름에 대비하여 저자는 1996년 각종 항해 신호 집중화 장비의 개발을 완료하였고, 1998년 DGPS를 이용한 속도, 조종 시운전의 계측 및 해석 program의 개발을 완료하였다. 개발된 계측 및 해석 program은 검증을 거쳐 1999년 한국 선급으로부터 Certification을 받아 실선 적용을 시작하였다. 현재까지 70여 척의 시운전을 본 시스템을 통해 수행하였다. 그러나 기존에 개발된 시스템은 단축선에 대해서만 적용이 가능하다는 제약이 있었다. 이를 극복하고자 저자는 단축선 이외에 다축선에 대해서도 적용할 수 있는 보완된 계측 시스템과 해석 program을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서는 두 시스템에 대한 개략적인 소개, 검증 방법, 실선 시운전 계측 및 해석 결과 등에 대해서 소개하고자 한다.

Vessel's ice speed performances will be verified in ice sea trial but environmental conditions of ice fields are changeable according to the weather condition of ice trial area. Speed performance has to correct in the no wind, wave and current etc. after sea trial. Especially finding ice fields which is exact the same as owner's ice thickness and strength requirements is not easy. Therefore speed correction according to environment condition has to be done after sea trial measurements. Correction methods for ice thickness, ice strength, wave, wind and ship draft, trim, ice drift etc. are checked in ice sea trial based on literature review such as ISO standard, ITTC recommendation, journal papers and proceedings of conferences. Possibility of application for current and ice drift correction in ice field are discussed and measuring schemes and procedures of correction methods are described in this paper. All of correction schemes are calculated for 'Araon' which is ice breaking research vessel with Arctic and Antarctic ice field test results. Analyzed results shows that Araon is satisfied with her official ice speed performance of 3 knots with 10MW power at 1m ice thickness, 570kPa ice flexural strength.

IMO standards for ship manoeuvrability were applied from January 1, 2004. Though model test or sea trial in full load condition is needed, it is not always possible to get such data for every ships. Therefore it is required to study the effect of loading conditions on ship manoeuvrability. Approximate formulae to estimate the hydrodynamic forces acting on a ship and the 2nd overshoot angle of $10^{\circ}$/$10^{\circ}$ zig-zag test in certain loading condition are proposed in this study These were derived from the results of model test and sea trial data. Captive model tests for 7 ships with 15 different loading conditions and sea trial data including free running test of 6 cases were used. Compared with experiment data and prediction formulae already proposed by others, the approximate formulae in this study show good agreement with model test results.

The first Korean-made icebreaking research vessel "ARAON" had her second sea ice trial in the Arctic Ocean in Aug. 2010 after her first voyage to Antarctic Ocean in Jan. 2010 to gather various material and strength characteristics of sea ice. This is a detail report of ARAON 2010 summer Arctic voyage and this paper describes a standard test procedure to obtain proper sea ice data which provide basic information to estimate ice loads and icebreaking performance of the ship. The data gathered from sea ice in the Chukchi Sea and Beaufort Sea during the Arctic voyage of the ARAON includes ice temperature/salinity and the compressive/flexural strength of sea ice. This paper analyses the gathered sea ice data in comparison with data from the first voyage of the ARAON during her Antarctic Sea ice trial.

The speed trial of a ship is one of the important elements guaranteeing its performance under the contract between the ship owner and shipbuilding company. A speed trial at sea, where the tidal current and waves are suppressed to the maximum, can prevent measurement errors due to external force conditions. On the other hand, it is difficult to maintain a calm sea state in most sea areas determined by the influence of the tidal current, wave, wind, etc. Therefore, this study evaluated a method of simulating a tidal current, which is one of the external force conditions, at the speed test operation of a ship, and applied the simulation result to the plan of a speed trial.

To correctly estimate ice load and ice resistance for a ship's hull, it is essential to understand the material properties of sea ice during ice field trials and to use the proper experimental procedure for gathering ice strength data. The first Korean-made icebreaking research vessel (IBRV), ARAON, had her second sea ice trial in the Arctic Ocean during July and August of 2010. This paper describes the test procedures used to properly obtain sea ice strength data, which provides the basic information on the ship's performance in an ice-covered sea and can be used to estimate the correct ice load and ice resistance on the IBRV ARAON. The data gathered from three sea ice field trials during the Arctic voyage of the ARAON includes the ice compressive strength, flexural strength, and failure strain of sea ice. This paper analyzes the gathered sea ice data in comparison with data from the first voyage of the ARAON during her Antarctic Sea ice trial in January 2010.

본 연구에서는 효율적인 함정 시운전을 위하여 빅데이터 기법인 워드 클라우드를 활용하여 한미 해군의 시운전 목적과 주안점을 다각적으로 파악하여 다음과 같은 결과를 도출하였다. 첫째, 한미 해군 시운전 종목을 키워드 클렌징을 통해 추출된 단어를 비교한 결과 한국 해군은 시운전을 단일 장비에 대한 시험의 개념으로 수행하며, 미 해군은 시스템에 초점을 둔 통합 시운전을 진행한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 둘째, 한미 해군 시운전 연관도 분석 결과 약 66.6%가 유사한 항목으로 분석되었으며, 그중 2종목 이상 중복된 종목이 112종목이었다. 한국 해군 시운전 종목 252종목 대비 44%가 중복된 종목으로 미 해군 시운전 종목으로 통합시 89종목(전체 35%)이 축소 가능하다고 분석되었다. 함정은 여러 장비가 동시 다발적으로 작동하는 복합 시스템이다. 현재 한국 해군 시운전과 같이 개별 장비의 기능, 성능 확인에 중점을 두고 수행하는 것은 시운전 대상이 지나치게 많아져 시운전 기간이 증가하게 된다. 또한, 그로 인한 일정 및 평가비용 증가로 필요한 예산이 필연적으로 증가한다. 향후 미 해군의 시운전과 같이 통합 시스템적인 평가를 통한 효율적이면서 정확한 시운전을 위하여 추가적인 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.
