ABSTRACT

This paper presents the result of analysis of ship added resistances in head

waves for 100 m product tanker model no 7698 by using experiment techniques and

also theoritical predictions. The study was carried out with two main objetives; firstly

to evaluate the difference and accuracy of added resistance prediction of the tanker

between theoritical and model experiment. Secondly is to develop a computer

program for the theoritical prediction calculation of added resistances in waves using

FORTRAN 77. The paper begins with the literature review on ship added resistances

in waves and focusing on the theoritical prediction namely the strip theory. This strip

theory is used to determine the hydrodynamic coefficients and also the ship motions

and finally this coefficients are used to predict the added resistance of a ship in

waves. Meanwhile the program will be used to calculate the added resistance using

momentum and energy method. Alternatively, a hydrodynamic software, namely

Seakeeper® is used to obtain the result as to compared it with the experiment results.

In addition, the relationship of the ship generated waves with the added resistances

are studied as to see how one can link with the energy dissipated by the ship waves

with the added resistances. Finally the paper declares the effectiveness and accuracy

of each method used in the prediction of added resistances in waves.

ABSTRAK

Tesis ini mengemukakan keputusan kajian analisa rintangan tambahan kapal

didalam gelombang seragam dari arah hadapan kapal. Kapal yang digunakan didalam

ujikaji ini adalah kapal tangki produk model 7698. Ujikaji ini dijalankan secara

ujikaji model mengunakan tangki tunda dan juga mengunakan kaedah-kaedah

ramalan rintangan yang sedia ada. Kajian ini mengandungi dua (2) objektif utama;

pertama ialah untuk mengkaji dan menilai sejauh mana ketepatan dan beza antara

kaedah ramalan dengan ujikaji model. Kedua adalah untuk membangunkan dan

menciptakan satu program komputer yang akan digunakan untuk mengira rintangan

tambahan didalam gelombang mengunakan bahasa FORTRAN 77. Tesis ini

dimulakan dengan pendekatan ilmiah tentang rintangan tambahan didalam

gelombang dan menfokuskan ke arah kaedah-kaedah ramalan terutamanya kaedah

yang dikenali sebagai ‘strip theory’. Kaedah ‘ strip theory’ ini akan digunakan untuk

menentukan pekali-pekali hidrodinamik dan juga gerakan kapal dan dimana akhirnya

pekali-pekali ini akan digunakan untuk menentukan rintangan tambahan didalam

gelombang. Manakala program yang akan dibangunkan akan mengunakan kaedah

momentum dan tenaga. Sebagai alternatif, satu perisian komputer hidrodinamik iaitu

dikenali sebagai Seakeeper® akan digunakan untuk menghasilkan keputusan

rintangan tambahan kapal yang akan dibandingkan kelak dengan keputusan ujikaji

model. Sebagai tambahan, hubungkait diantara gelombang hasilan kapal dengan

rintangan tambahan kapal akan dikaji untuk melihat kaitan diantara keduanya.

Akhirnya, tesis ini akan melaporkan keberkesanan dan ketepatan setiap kaedah yang

digunakan didalam ramalan rintangan tambahan kapal didalam gelombang.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

1.0 Background of Study

Added resistance in waves is another component of ship’s resistance. It is

sometimes being misunderstood as wave making resistance. Basically, added resistance

in waves is another partial component of the resistance that responsible for speed

reduction in a seaway especially in high seas condition. Therefore added resistance

prediction represents an important challenge for ship-owners due to its economic

implications in terms of choice of engines, fuel consumption and route-time evaluation.

Design offices should consider seriously this problem already in the early stages of the

design.

Usually, the performance evaluation of a ship in a seaway is primary based on the calm

water resistance without properly considering the weather conditions prevailing on the

operating route. Even if the calm water resistance is used as a first estimation of the

power required, an allowance is added to this value of the resistance to consider the

effect of the environment. Therefore in this study it is aim to look into the comparison of

the various theoretical method with the towing tests method as a continuous effort from

past students master dissertation.

2.0 Problem Statement

In carrying out these experimental and theoretical predictions, several issues will

be addressed as follow:

i. What is the influence of the ship speeds and the wave frequencies on the

added resistances in waves?

ii. How accurate is the present method of theoretical prediction of added

resistance in waves? Is it reliable?

iii. What is the relationship of ship generated waves to the added resistance in

waves? If there is any, can we use this relationship to predict the added

resistance in waves?

3.0 Objectives of the research

The research work is carried out in order to achieve the following objectives:

i. To evaluate the difference and accuracy of added resistance prediction of a 100

m product tanker between theoretical and model experiment.

ii. Develop a computer program in order to calculate the added resistances in waves

using FORTRAN 77.

iii. Investigate the influences of the following parameters to added resistance due to

waves either from the speed of the vessel and the also the wave frequencies

(wave length)

iv. Investigate the relationship of ship generated waves with the added resistance in

waves as ship dissipates energy to the waves created by it at aft and energy is

proportional to the squared of the wave amplitudes.

v. Additionally hydrodynamics analysis computer software namely Seakeeper® can

be used as to compare the results obtained experimentally and validate the

computed results.

4.0 Scopes of the research

The scope of the research is listed as follows:

i. Conduct literature research on ship added resistances due to head waves mainly

on the familiarization on the Strip Method and Potential Flow Theory.

ii. Develop a computer program to calculate the ship added resistance in waves

using strip theory to generate the hydrodynamic coefficients, ship’s heave and

pitch motion and using momentum and energy method or radiated energy

method in order to get the added resistance values.

iii. Conduct experiments using the tanker model in a towing tank for calm water

resistance test.

iv. Conduct experiments using the tanker model in a towing tank in regular waves.

v. Determine added resistance due to waves by subtracting resistance in waves to

the resistance in calm water

vi. Familiarization of Maxsurf software namely Maxsurf Pro® for inputs of

linesplan and hulls particulars and Seakeeper® for predicting added resistances

due to waves.

vii. Estimate added resistance due to waves by using theoretical method using

SEAKEEPER namely Gerritsma and Beukelman’s method and Salvesen’s

method.

viii. Validate the theoretical prediction results with the model experiment test results.

Compare and analyze both results.

5.0 Research Flow Chart

This topic discusses the approach of the project that has been taken to ensure the

objectives of the project will be achieved. It also presents the project flow chart.

Basically the project begins with deciding the objectives and the scopes. This is done by

having discussion with the project supervisor namely, Ir. Dr. Mohamad Pauzi Abdul

Ghani.

Later after the objectives and the scopes are agreed, literature research and

review are done to select and pinpoint the approach of on how the research to be done.

Basically, as agreed in this research project, there are two approaches in determining the

added resistances of a ship in head wave, which are experimentally and theoretically. In

experiment works, both resistances are taken in calm water and in regular waves, and

concurrently the ship generated waves are taken by using resistance probe.

Theoretically, few methods are chosen to predict the added resistances in head waves,

and here two approach are determined which is using computational software namely

Seakeeper® and also a program will be developed using one of the method in predicting

added resistances in waves.

The flow chart of this research project is available in figure 1.1. The

experimental or theoretical prediction works will be repeated if any discrepancy found

during the estimation of added resistances in waves.
