  1. 1. Numerical optimization of hull/propeller/rudder configurations

    Författare :Kaijia Han; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fuel cost savings; optimization; pressure fluctuation; self-propulsion; RANS; verification and validation; cavitation; open water; lifting surface; hull-propeller-rudder; effective wake; efficiency; aspect ratio; lifting line; interaction;

    Sammanfattning : The new framework of the global economy has stimulated and expanded the shipbuilding and shipping industry, especially in Asia in the twenty-first century. This induces urgent and high requirements on designing and building both conventional and new types of ships with high performance, such as high speed, manoeuvrability, seaworthiness and so on.

  2. 2. Dynamic effects on yacht sails and rudders

    Författare :Adam Persson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD; Sailing dynamics; towing tank; sail aerodynamics; rudder; verification; validation; RANS;

    Sammanfattning : In search of increased performance, modern sailing vessels are becoming more and more complex, introducing additional challenges in the design process. The dynamic behaviour of the vessel is of great importance to safe and efficient operation and thus needs to be accounted for when evaluating the performance. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Investigation on Propeller-Rudder Interaction by Numerical Methods

    Författare :Da-Qing Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The axial forces in a propeller-rudder interactive system working in uniform flow are theoretically studied: In a steady linear method the propeller is represented by bound and free vortex systems, the rudder by vortex and source filaments and the rudder wake by free vortex filaments. A lifting-line analysis method predicts the propeller characteristics. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Controlling the Roll Responses of PCTC's

    Författare :Carl-Johan Söder; Jakob Kuttenkeuler; Dominic Hudson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PCTC; parametric roll; roll response; roll damping; rudder control; roll mitigation; racking;

    Sammanfattning : Modern Panamax Pure Car and Truck Carriers (PCTC) have become more vulnerable to critical roll responses as built in margins have been traded against increased transport efficiency. The research presented in this licentiate thesis aims at enhancing the predictability and control of these critical roll responses. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Controlling the Roll Responses of Volume Carriers

    Författare :Carl-Johan Söder; Anders Rosén; Jan De Kat; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :PCTC; parametric roll; roll response; roll damping; rudder control; aerodynamic roll damping; roll mitigation; racking; Ikeda’s method; CFD; model tests; Full-scale tests; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Modern volume carriers such as container vessels, cruise ships and Pure Car and Truck Carriers (PCTC’s) have become more vulnerable to critical roll responses as built in margins have been traded against increased transport efficiency. The research presented in this doctoral thesis aims at enhancing the predictability and control of these critical roll responses. LÄS MER
