This paper applies Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) method to study propulsion performance in head and oblique waves. Finite volume method (FVM) is employed to discretize the governing equations and SST k-ω model is used for modeling the turbulent flow. The free surface is solved by volume of fluid (VOF) method. Sliding mesh technique is used to enable rotation of propeller. Propeller open water curves are determined by propeller open water simulations. Calm water resistance and wave added resistances are obtained from towing computations without propeller. Self-propulsion simulations in calm water and waves with varying loads are performed to obtain self-propulsion point and thrust identify method is use to predict propulsive factors. Regular head waves with wavelengths varying from 0.6 to 1.4 times the length of ship and oblique waves with incident directions varying from 0° to 360° are considered. The influence of waves on propulsive factors, including thrust deduction and wake fraction, open water, relative rotative, hull and propulsive efficiencies are discussed.

A study about the requirements and cargo transportation demand in the Black Sea as part of a multimodal transportation frame is performed, estimating the potential need of a ship fleet of multipurpose ships. The study performs conceptual multipurpose vessel design and fleet sizing using the long-time experience and statistics in defining main dimensions of the ship and her hull form, resistance and propulsion, weights, stability, free-board, seakeeping and manoeuvrability, capital, operational and decommissioning expenditure, where the optimal design solution is obtained based on the energy efficiency, shipbuilding, operation, and resale costs at the end of the service life. A discussion about possible applications of a different fleet of ship sizes in improving the cargo transportation efficiency considers the vessel's typical operational profile in such a way to maximise the economic impact conditional of the unsteady cargo flow and environmental impact.

The problems of developing the risk assessment methods to estimate the level of safety of the vessel under the current conditions on a planned route before staring the pilotage as well as to make the decision on the beginning or suspension of pilotage in order to increase the level of navigational safety are discussed in the paper. Moreover, the application of the research results will reduce the affect of the human factor in decision-making in tasks related to the sea-going vessel’s operation. The developed method for the quantitative assessment of navigational risks will improve the safety of ship’s pilotage. It can also be applied in the decision-making support systems for the navigator in case of collision avoidance actions. The research results presented in this paper can be used to create automatic control systems.

This paper aims to review regasification technology installed in Floating Storage Regasification Units (FSRUs) and the potential offered by the exploitation of cold energy from liquefied natural gas (LNG) in these vessels. The assessment describes the main characteristics of regasification systems along with their respective advantages and limitations. Regasification systems in direct exchange (seawater and steam) and systems with intermediate fluids that use propane or water-glycol in the heat transfer process are studied. In recent years, water-glycol systems have cornered the market. The mixture, besides reducing the risk of freezing, is non-flammable, economical and highly available. Thermodynamic analysis of the regasification process shows that LNG cold energy is the main source of residual energy in these vessels; the specific energy and exergy content is more than double that of engine exhaust gases. Exploitation of this cold energy in power cycles could significantly reduce FSRUs harmful emissions and electrical energy could even be exported to shore. The organic Rankine cycle technology is the most well-known and widely studied, although scientific literature is scarce and there is a need to propose new regasification systems with cold energy exploitation that can be adopted on these vessels.

The present manuscript describes a computational model employed to characterize the performance and emissions of a commercial marine diesel engine. This model analyzes several pre-injection parameters, such as starting instant, quantity, and duration. The goal is to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx), as well as its effect on emissions and consumption. Since some of the parameters considered have opposite effects on the results, the present work proposes a MCDM (Multiple-Criteria Decision Making) methodology to determine the most adequate pre-injection configuration. An important issue in MCDM models is the data normalization process. This operation is necessary to convert the available data into a non-dimensional common scale, thus allowing ranking and rating alternatives. It is important to select a suitable normalization technique, and several methods exist in the literature. This work considers five well-known normalization procedures: linear max, linear max-min, linear sum, vector, and logarithmic normalization. As to the solution technique, the study considers three MCDM models: WSM (Weighted Sum Method), WPM (Weighted Product Method) and TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution). The linear max, linear sum, vector, and logarithmic normalization procedures brought the same result: -22º CA ATDC pre-injection starting instant, 25% pre-injection quantity and 1-2º CA pre-injection duration. Nevertheless, the linear max min normalization procedure provided a result, which is different from the others and not recommended.

This paper proposes a method for optimising the hull form of ocean-going trawlers to decrease resistance and consequently reduce the energy consumption. The entire optimisation process was managed by the integration of computer-aided design and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in the CAESES software. Resistance was simulated using the CFD solver and STAR-CCM+. The ocean-going trawler was investigated under two main navigation conditions: trawling and design. Under the trawling condition, the main hull of the trawler was modified using the Lackenby method and optimised by NSGA-II algorithm and Sobol + Tsearch algorithm. Under the design condition, the bulbous bow was changed using the free-form deformation method, and the trawler was optimised by NSGA-Ⅱ. The best hull form is obtained by comparing the ship resistance under various design schemes. Towing experiments were conducted to measure the navigation resistance of trawlers before and after optimisation, thus verifying the reliability of the optimisation results. The results show that the proposed optimisation method can effectively reduce the resistance of trawlers under the two navigation conditions.

A novel approach for the solution of Stefan problem within the framework of the multi fluid model supplemented with Volume of Fluid (VOF) method, i.e. two-fluid VOF, is presented in this paper. The governing equation set is comprised of mass, momentum and energy conservation equations, written on a per phase basis and supplemented with closure models via the source terms. In our method, the heat and mass transfer is calculated from the heat transfer coefficient, which has a fictitious function and depends on the local cell size and the thermal conductivity, and the implementation is straightforward because of the usage of the local value instead of a global parameter. The interface sharpness is ensured by the application of the geometrical reconstruction scheme implemented in VOF. The model is verified for three types of computational meshes including triangular cells, and good agreement was obtained for the interface position and the temperature field. Although the developed method was validated only for Stefan problem, the application of the method to engineering problems is considered to be straightforward since it is implemented to a commercial CFD code only using a local value; especially in the field of naval hydrodynamics wherein the reduction of ship resistance using boiling flow can be computed efficiently since the method handles phase change processes using low resolution meshes.

The use of energy-saving devices is the most effective method for decreasing CO2 emissions, which is an increasingly concerning environmental issue. The asymmetric pre-swirl stator has been developed as an energy-saving device and has been successfully applied to various types of vessels. In the present study, a flexible material was applied to an asymmetric pre-swirl stator to determine the variation in the flow around stator and its efficiency. A fluid–structure interaction (FSI) analysis system was developed using the Star-CCM+ (fluid) and the Abaqus (structure). The proposed analysis system was validated by comparing the experimental results using a flexible plate in a flowing fluid. The flexible stator was applied to a 3,600 TEU KRISO Container Ship to determine the improvement in its performance compared to the previous optimum value achieved with a rigid stator. Although this application was conducted on a model scale and the deformation was small, the results of the flexible stator indicated the possibility of not only increasing the efficiency but also decreasing the vortex risk around stator blade.

The trimaran vessel rolls strongly at low forward speed and may capsize in high sea conditions due to chaos and loss of stability, which is not usually considered in conventional limit-based criteria. In order to perfect the method of measuring roll performance of trimaran, a set of nonlinear roll motion stability analysis method based on Lyapunov and Melnikov theory was established. The nonlinear roll motion equation was constructed by CFD and high-order polynomial fitting method. The wave force threshold of rolling chaos in regular waves is calculated by Gauss-Legendre numerical integration method. The limited significant wave height of rolling chaos in random sea conditions is deduced by the phase space transfer rate, and the complex effect of wind load is superposed in the calculation. The influence of trimaran configuration on the roll system is analyzed through the state differentiation of homoclinic and heteroclinic orbit in phase portrait. The calculation of the maximum Lyapunov exponent further verified the applicability of Melnikov method, and the topological structure change of gradual failure of the rolling system is analyzed by the erosion of safe basin. The complex changes of the nonlinear damping coefficient and the nonlinear restoring moment coefficient caused by the change of the transverse lay-outs between the main hull and side hull have a significant influence on chaos and stability, and the existence of wind load has a certain weakening effect on the stability and symmetry of the system. The conclusion also further indicates the importance of the lay-outs to the dynamic stability of the trimaran vessel, which is significant for its seakeeping design.

To ensure the better structural integrity and maximum safety of bulk carriers in the ship design phase, an appropriate corrosion margin is introduced by the classification societies, which should enable the exploitation of ships during the projected 25-year life cycle. The new Common Structural Rules introduce even higher corrosion margin value to ensure the structural integrity of the ship. This directly affects the increase in hull weight and thus the need for more total installed power and higher fuel consumption. Higher fuel consumption results in increased emissions which directly affects environmental pollution. For these reasons, efforts are being made to introduce alternative energy sources, cleaner fuel, ship weight reduction, and the overall economic efficiency of ships. Therefore, using experimental data collected on aging bulk carriers, the paper explores the corrosion margin reduction potential considering its impact on hull weight. Assuming that the corrosive processes occur after four years of operation, a linear model that describes the percentage of plate wear as a function of the as build-in the thickness of inner bottom plates (IBP) of fuel oil tanks (FOT) located on the double bottom of aging bulk carriers, is analyzed. Over the course of 25 years, the IBP segment was monitored on 36 different ships surveys. In this way, 520 input data describing the depth of corrosion were formed. At the same time, records were kept on the mean thickness of the original metal plate, which enabled systematization of the empirical database and grouping of measured values by intervals of original plate thicknesses, and simple conversion of corrosion depth into adequate percentage values. Depth corrosion percentages were represented by standard linear models known in the literature. Based on this analysis, representative numerical and graphical results were obtained. Conclusions from the paper can assist to optimize corrosion margin and the energy efficiency of future vessels.
