The course-keeping ability of a pure car carrier (PCC) in windy conditions is discussed in this article. Numerical simulations
of two PCCs were carried out to compare their course-keeping abilities in wind. The two PCCs had the same hull form but different
types of rudder. One PCC was fitted with a semispade rudder (hereinafter, the normal rudder), whereas the other was fitted
with a spade-type Schilling rudder (hereinafter, the Schilling rudder). Both PCCs were designed to a new concept for the accommodation
structure and hull form above the load water line. In this new design concept, there are no sharp corners in the superstructure
so as to reduce wind resistance and improve steering performance. The limits of course keeping for the two PCCs were investigated
through simulations. The course-keeping abilities of the two PCCs, each with two different types of autopilot system, were
also investigated in wind. To develop the numerical simulation, the hydrodynamic coefficients of the two PCCs were predicted
based on the data published for a third PCC having similar principal particulars. The numerical model of the two PCCs was
validated by comparing its behavior with the respective full-scale trial results. Wind resistance coefficients were predicted
by combining the results of wind tunnel experiments of the object PCCs and a regression model. Numerical simulations under
steady wind conditions were also carried out and the results compared with some full-scale experiments to validate the mathematical
model of the PCC. 相似文献

Mathematical simulation is the process of designing a model of a real system and then conducting experiments with the simulation
to understand the system’s behavior. Mathematical simulation is widely used for investigating and designing compressors, and
with a minimal number of simplifying assumptions, mathematical models can be used in conjunction with modern computing tools
to solve complicated problems. A considerable amount of previous research has focused on the mathematical modeling of reciprocating
air compressors used in automotive braking. The aim of the present work was to experimentally validate the mathematical model
for such compressors. We present a simplified and effective mathematical model for estimating compressor performance, and
this model can easily be executed using personal computers. Parameters such as compressor speed, discharge pressure and clearance
volume were evaluated in terms of their effect on the thermodynamic behavior of compressors. The model can predict cylinder
pressure, cylinder volume, cylinder temperature, valve lift and resultant torque at different crank angles; it can also predict
the free air delivered and the indicated power of the compressor. Therefore, the model has been validated using experimental
results. 相似文献

In this paper, a mathematical model is developed for the maneuvering motion of a naval ship and bifurcations of its equilibrium are identified in roll-coupled motion. The subject ship is a high-speed surface combatant with twin-propeller twin-rudder system. Captive model tests are conducted for the ship using planar motion mechanism. Maneuvering coefficients are calculated by polynomial curve fitting of the test data. Uncertainty distribution in the coefficients is assumed same as that of the curve fitting errors. Uncertainty in the model coefficients is propagated to full-scale simulation results by the stochastic response surface method (SRSM). This method is computationally efficient as compared to standard Monte Carlo simulation technique. The SRSM uses polynomial chaos expansion of orthogonal to fit any probability distribution. Bifurcation analysis of the mathematical model is performed by varying the vertical center of gravity as the bifurcation parameter. Hopf bifurcation is identified. It is found that the bifurcations occur due to the coupling of roll motion with sway, yaw motion and rudder angle. In the presence of wind, roll angle response in bifurcation diagram is discussed. 相似文献

The influence of a rudder’s axial force on the prediction of full-scale powering performance of a ship is investigated in
this paper. Axial force characteristics of different rudder types were investigated by open water experiments. Viscous scale
effects on the rudder’s axial force were investigated by carrying out open water experiments with different sizes of rudder.
Experiments were carried out in the towing tank for a model ship fitted with different rudder systems to investigate the influence
of rudder’s axial force on full-scale propulsion performance prediction. Based on the experiment results, a new prediction
method is proposed for estimating full-scale power that considers scale effect on rudder’s axial force. Good performance of
the proposed prediction method is demonstrated by estimating the engine power of a ship installed with a special high lift
twin-rudder system from model experiments and comparing it with the values measured on the ship during full-scale experiments. 相似文献

A simulation model of a very large crude carrier (VLCC) with either a mariner type Schilling rudder or a mariner rudder was
developed from captive and free-running model tests. Kijima’s regression formula was used to predict the hydrodynamic hull
forces on the VLCC. To simulate full-scale maneuvering at cruising speed, the constant torque operation of the main engine
was assumed. Considering the higher normal lift force and maneuverability of the mariner type Schilling rudder as compared
to the mariner rudder, the size of mariner type Schilling rudder is kept smaller as compared to mariner rudder. To compare
the efficiency of the two types of rudder system, maneuvering simulations at constant engine torque and course-keeping simulations
at various gusting wind speeds and encounter angles were carried out. Based on the simulation results, the two rudder types
were compared from the viewpoint of maneuvering and fuel efficiency in windy conditions. 相似文献

The homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is an alternative combustion concept for reciprocating engines. This study investigates an HCCI engine fuelled with Diethyl ether (DEE) ignition assisted wet ethanol (ethanol with 20% water content). The direct use of wet ethanol could reduce the associated energy required for distillation and dehydration of ethanol. The HCCI engine offers significant benefits in terms of its high efficiency and ultra low emissions. The experiment is conducted with various DEE flow rates and at different air-fuel ratios, for which stable HCCI combustion is achieved. Incylinder pressure, heat release analysis and exhaust emissions were observed. In this study, the effect of DEE on combustion parameters, thermal efficiency and emissions is analysed and discussed in detail. The experimental results indicate that the DEE flow rates have a significant effect on the maximum in-cylinder pressure and its position, thermal efficiency, maximum rate of pressure rise and the heat release rate. Results show that for all stable operating points, brake thermal efficiency is higher than reference mode at lower loads and almost same at higher loads. The emission parameters such as NO, HC and CO are lower than the dual fuel mode which is considered as a reference model for this experiment. 相似文献

Mathematical model of single-propeller twin-rudder ship 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

A mathematical model of a single-propeller twin-rudder ship has been developed from captive and free running model experiments.
An open water rudder experiment was carried out to figure out the characteristics of the rudder. Captive experiments in a
towing tank were carried out to figure out the performance of a single-propeller twin-rudder system on a large vessel. Interactions
between the hull, propeller and twin rudders, including mutual interactions between the twin rudders, were expressed with
several coefficients that were calculated from the experimental results at various ship speeds. In the analysis, the unique
characteristics of a single-propeller twin-rudder ship, which affects rudder forces, were explained and formulated in the
mathematical model. The captive model tests were conducted with zero ship’s yaw rate, so the interaction coefficients, which
are influenced by the yaw rate, are determined from free running model experiments. Validation of the mathematical model of
a single-propeller twin-rudder system for a blunt body ship is carried out with an independent set of free running experiments,
which were not used for determining the interaction coefficients. The validated numerical model is used for carrying out simulations.
Based on simulation results, some recommendations have been proposed for installing a single-propeller twin-rudder system. 相似文献

With a recent increase in ship capacity and propulsion performance, a wide-beam ship fitted with a twin-rudder system has
been adopted in many cases. However, to improve ship manoeuvring, it is still necessary to have a better understanding of
rudder-hull interactions in twin-rudder ships. Captive model tests (oblique towing and circular motion test) as well as free-running
tests with a single-propeller twin-rudder ship and a twin-propeller twin-rudder ship are carried out. The effect of drift
angle on the rudder forces and some peculiar phenomena concerning rudder normal force for twin-rudder ships are evaluated.
A method for estimating the hull-rudder interaction coefficients based on free-running experimental results is proposed. 相似文献
