Study of the ship-propeller interaction by trials of the river cargo ships

Abstract

The calculation of the ship interaction is necessary for prediction of ships power, which are used in the problems of computation of the ships velocity and fuel consumption, as well as for the preliminary design of new ships. In the scientific and educational literature there are descriptions of several empirical methods for calculating wake fraction and thrust deduction. However, model trials data are extremely scarce, and ships trials data are completely absent. Based on the existing data of full-scale trials of ships, ship interaction coefficients were calculated and these data were compared with the available empirical methods, as well as with the hydrodynamic theory of interaction. It is shown that empirical methods do not correspond to the data of full-scale trials, even at a qualitative level. At the same time, it is shown that the data of full-scale trials qualitatively correspond to the theory of interaction.

Keywords: ship propulsion, wake fraction, thrust deduction, full-scale trials of ships, ships hydrodynamics, rate of ships velocity and fuel consumption
