프로펠러 회전면에서의 반류분포는 주로 모형시험에 의해서 규명되어 왔다. 이렇게 축적된 데이터베이스를 통해 선박의 기하학적 형상정보와 반류분포 사이의 입출력관계를 모델링할 수 있다. 면 선박 초기설계시 유사선종의 설계에 도움이 된다. 본 연구에서는 이들 입출력 사이의 관계를 뉴로퍼지시스템으로 모델링하고 학습한 후 새로운 입력에 대한 출력값의 검토를 통해 그 유용성을 확인한다.

In recent towing tank experiments, it has been observed that a ship moving near the critical speed $\sqrt{gh}$(g=gravitational acceleration, h=water depth) radiates solitons upstream in an almost periodic manner. As a ,consequence, the ship experiences considerable changes in resistance, trim and sinkage, or better known as squat. Mei and Choi(1987) developed a nonlinear theory for a slender ship by using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. For a certain class of channel width and ship slenderness, they found that the waves generated can be described by an inhomogeneous Korteweg-de Vries(KdV) equation. The leading-order solution properly predicts solitons propagating upstream, but it fails to render three-dimensional waves in the wake. In this paper a new approach has been made by choosing a different class of channel width and ship slenderness. The wave equation in the farfield turns out to be a homogeneous Kadomtsev-Petviashvili(KP) equation, which predicts solitons upstream and three-dimensional waves in the wake. Numerical results for the wave resistance, sinkage and trim reflect the experimentally identified phenomena.

Mathematical model of maneuvering motion for a single-screw single-rudder ship established and versatile applications to the special situations of maneuvering are attempted. While, the mathematical model for twin-screw twin-rudder ship is not presented so much, because that type of ship is not popular. Lee et al. have examined the characteristics of such ship by captive model tests in 1988. This paper treats new mathematical models for propeller effective wake ($1-w_p$) and effective neutral rudder angle ${\delta}_R$ in the case of twin-screw twin-rudder ship. And some maneuvering motions are calculated with proposed models and compared with exact simulations.

The computational prediction method of speed performance for a ship with vortex generators is proposed. The Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equation has been solved together with the application of Reynolds stress turbulence model. The computations are carried out under identical conditions of the experimental method, i.e., towing and self-propulsion calculations without and with vortex generators. The speed performance in full scale is obtained through analyzing the computational results in model scale according to the revised model-ship performance analysis method of ITTC'78 with considering the vortex generators into account. The characteristics of resistance, self-propulsion and wake characteristics on the propeller plane are investigated. The proposed computational prediction clearly shows the effect of vortex generators and can be applicable to the design tool for vortex generators.

Numerical analysis for flow characteristics of a twin skeg container ship was carried out according to skeg vertical angles($0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$) and skeg distances(16m, 20m, 24m) by using a commercial CFD code, FLUENT. Computed: pressure distributions, wake distributions and resistance coefficients have been compared with experimental and WAVIS results carried out by MOERI. Flow characteristics from numerical analysis such as nominal wake fractions, wake distribution and directions of the transverse vectors give good agreement with WAVIS results, even though there are quantitative discrepancy comparing with experimental measurements at the propeller plane. It is found that the better resistance performance can be obtained with the increase of the skeg vertical angle and the decrease of the skeg distance, which are mainly caused by viscous pressure resistance due to the skeg form and pressure recovery around the skeg. In addition, a vertical angle of the skeg gives more effect to the resistance coefficient comparing with the skeg distance. On the basis of results of the present study, it shows that numerical analysis using the commercial code, FLUENT, is useful and efficient tool for the evaluation of the complex stern hull form with twin-skegs.

The DSME guide plate(GP) has been developed with the target to improve the cavitation and vibration performance when used with discharging cooling water around the outlet of LNG carrier. It was proven that it could as well be applied as a powerful wake control device on its own, even without discharging cooling water. However, it has to be taken into account that it inevitably results in speed loss. This study shows the possibility to design a GP which simultaneously improves both vibration and speed performance. The study intends to outline how to design the preliminary GP configurations from both the vibration and the speed performance points of view. Further, the study offers design guidance for the hull form and the propeller when adapting GP as a wake control device.

In this paper, cavitation patterns of model tests were compared with those of full-scale measurement for a propeller of crude oil carrier which was suffered from erosions on suction side of blade tip region. Cavitation tests were performed at design and ballast draft using model and full scale nominal wakes. A model ship and wire mesh method was used for the simulation of wake patterns of model nominal wakes. For the prediction of full-scale wake patterns, a RANS solver(Fluent 6.3) was used and wire mesh method was used for the simulation of the full scale wakes. Comparison results show that cavitation patterns using predicted full-scale wake patterns are closer to cavitation patterns of full-scale measurement at ballast draft condition. Also, cloud cavitations were observed on the position of eroded area at both full-scale measurement and cavitation tests using simulated full-scale wake patterns.

This paper carried out numerical analysis for estimating the propulsion performance of the model scale ONRT benchmark model of'Tokyo 2015 a workshop on CFD'. The method reflecting the scale effect of ITTC'78 method and form factor were used to compare the estimates of the effective wake ratio of full-scale. The numerical calculation was performed with Siemens's Star-CCM+, compared with IIHR model tests and the numerical analysis results of other research institutes, showing good agreement. In the case of an open stern and twin skeg ship, the validity of the ITTC'78 method can be confirmed by assuming that the effective wake ratio estimated from the numerical analysis results of model scale is similar to the effective wake ratio of full-scale.

The optimized distance between skegs and angle of the skeg for a standard twin-skeg type LNG carrier were presented using the CFD and model tests. The evaluation method of self-propulsion performance was derived based on the results of CFD and confirmed the validity through model tests. The analyses to assess self-propulsion performance using CFD were shown by flow line patterns on the skeg surface, nominal wake distribution in the propeller plane and the evaluation for flow balance around stern skegs. The optimized ship that was applied to the optimized two design parameters in stern skeg arrangement for target ship was derived in this work. Finally speed performance of mother ship which is existing ship and optimized ship were compared through CFD and model tests. And the usefulness about the evaluation method of self-propulsion performance was reconfirmed.
