이 연구의 목적은 당사에서 제작한 멤브레인형 $130,000M^3$와 $135,000M^3$ LNG 운반선의 진동특성을 파악하고, 거주구역의 진동수준을 예측하기 위함이다. 우선 공진 회피의 관점에서 최적의 프로펠러를 선택하기 위해 간단한 계산을 수행한 후, 주변 해수를 고려한 선박 전체를 모델링하여 3차원 유한요소해석을 수행한다. 이 계산은 보다 정확한 고유진동수를 결정하고, 프로펠러 기진의 주파수 범위에서 관련된 모드 형상을 결정하며, 선박 거주구에서 기대되는 진동수준은 잘 예측할 수 있다. 다음으로 선박이 진수되고 전체구조가 조립된 후 안벽에서 불평형 가진기를 이용해 가진기테스트를 실시하고, 해상시운전 중에도 동일한 방법으로 테스트를 실시한다. 시험은 고유진동수의 항으로 선박의 실제진동응답과 계산결과와의 좋은 비교를 가능하게 한다. 추가적으로 실제 엔진을 구동해 RPM을 최저에서 최고까지 천천히 변경하면서 실제 운항 중 진동응답을 계측함으로서 고유진동수를 예측하여 해석결과 및 가진기 시험결과와 비교한다.

A furan mold design and machining system for marine propeller casting was developed. In general, a large marine propeller is produced by casting in a foundry, where the upper and lower molds are constructed of cement or other materials like furan. Then, the cast workpiece is machined and manually ground. Currently, furan mold construction requires a series of manual tasks. This introduces a fairly large amount of stock allowances, which require a considerable number of man-hours for later machining and grinding, and also increase the work processes. A mold design and off-line robot programming software tool with a six-axis robot hardware system was developed to enhance the shape accuracy and productivity. This system will be applied in a Korean ship building company.

In order to investigate the influence of thru holes near leading edge of model propeller on cavitation behavior, a model propeller with thru holes was manufactured and tested at Large Cavitation Tunnel (LCT). The pressure distribution around the thru hole on propeller blade was numerically calculated to help understand the local flow characteristics related to cavitation behavior. The model propeller is a five bladed propeller which has 2 blades with thru holes and 3 blades with smooth surface. The cavitation observation tests were conducted at angles of $0^{\circ}$ & $6^{\circ}$ using an inclined-shaft dynamometer in LCT. There are big difference on the suction side cavitation behavior each other due to the existence of thru hole. While the blades with thou holes start generation of the sheet cavitation from the leading edge on the suction side, the blades with smooth surface generate the cloud cavitation from the mid-chord. Cavitation on the blades with thru holes shows more similar behavior to those of the full-scale propeller of which the pipe line for air injection is closed. The numerical analysis result shows that the sharp pressure drop occurs around thru holes on the blade. Consequently, the thru hole around leading edge stimulates the cavitation occurrence and stabilizes the cavitation behavior. Based on these results, the effect of thru holes on propeller cavitation behavior behind a model ship should be studied in the future.

본 고에서는 실제 선박의 진동 양상을 근간으로 하여 최근의 초대형 유조선 및 콘테이너 운반 선의 선박진동에 대해서 개략적으로 고찰하여 보았다. 최근의 선박 진동 양상은 선박의 대형화와 고출력 및 고효율기관이 선박에 적용됨에 따라 프로펠러보다는 주기관에 의한 진동이 많이 발생 되므로 주기관으로 발생되는 종 기진력 및 선체에의 전달 메카니즘에 대해서 중점적으로 연구할 필요가 있다. 선박 진동은 현재의 추진기관 시스템이 선박에 적용되는 한 피할 수 없는 문제 이고 또한 최근에 거주성 및 작업성 향상을 위한 저진동 선박에 대한 요구도 점차 높아지고 있 으므로 진동 관계자들은 지속적인 관심을 갖는 것이 요구된다.

Recently, electric propulsion systems are been increasingly used in large cruise ships and merchant vessels. When abnormal electrical conditions occur in the motor of an electric propulsion ship, they can cause serious damage to the motor and propeller shaft. Research on abnormal conditions of propulsion motors used in electric propulsion vessels and electric ships difficult to find. In this study, a mathematical model of the electric propulsion system is proposed to analyze transient phenomena that occur in the case of electric propulsion motor or propeller shaft malfunction. A synchronous motor was used in the MATLAB computer simulation of this study. In the event of electrical malfunction of the electric propulsion motor at rated operation, over current occurs in the condition of 1 phase ground, over torque occurs at 3 and 2 phases ground and over current and torque occur when exciting power fails at rated operation.

Turbulent wake behind a ship propeller has been investigated using the adaptive hybrid 2-frame PTV(Particle Tracking Velocimetry). 400 instantaneous velocity fields were measured according to 4 different blade phases and ensemble-averaged to investigate the spatial evolution of the vortical structure of near wake within one propeller diameter downstream. The phase averaged mean velocity fields show the potential wake and the viscous wake formed by the boundary layers developed on the blade surfaces. As the tip vortex evolves downstream, the slipstream is contracted and the turbulent intensity is decreased with viscous dissipation and turbulent diffusion.

Flexible composite propellers have a relatively large deformation under heavy loading conditions. Thus, it is necessary to accurately predict the deformation of the blade through a fluid-structure interaction analysis. In this work, we present an LST-FEM method to predict the deformation of a flexible composite propeller. Here, we adopt an FEM solver called OOFEM to carry out a structural analysis with an orthotropic linear elastic composite material. In addition, we examine the influence of the lamination direction on the deformation of the flexible composite propeller.

In order to improve the propeller Cavitation Inception Speed (CIS) performance, it needs to modify the propeller geometry and the wake distribution that flows into the propeller. In the previous study, the twisted angles of the V-strut were modified to improve propeller CIS, cavitation behavior and pressure fluctuation performances. Then the propeller behind the modified V-strut (New strut) showed better cavitation characteristics than that behind the existing V-strut (Old strut). However, the CIS of Suction Side Tip Vortex (SSTV) and Pressure Side Tp Vortex (PSTV) showed a big difference at behind each V-strut. In this study, the balance design is conducted to minimize the difference between SSTV CIS and PSTV CIS at behind each V-strut. To improve the propeller CIS performance, 1 propeller is designed at behind the old strut and 3 propellers are designed at behind the new strut. The propeller CIS is increased through the balance design and the stern appendage modification. The final propeller CIS is increased about 5.3 knots higher than that of the existing propeller at behind the old strut. On the basis of the present study, it is thought that the better improvement method for the propeller CIS would be suggested.

Generally, the propeller shaft that constitutes the ship shaft system has different patterns of behavior due to the ef ects of engine power, propeller load and eccentric thrust, which increases the risk of bearing failure by causing local load variations. To prevent this, different studies of the propulsion shaft system have been conducted focused the relative inclination angle and oil film retention between the shaft and the support bearing, mainly with respect to the Rules for the Classification of Steel Ships. However, in order to secure the stability of the propulsion shaft via a more detailed evaluation, it is necessary to consider dynamic conditions, including the transient state due to sudden change in the stern wakefield. In this context, a 50,000 DWT vessel was analyzed using the strain gauge method, and the effects of propeller shaft movement were analyzed on the starboard rudder turn which is a typical transient state during normal continuous rate(NCR) operation in ballast draught condition. Analysis results confirm that the changed propeller eccentric thrust acts as a force that temporarily pushes down the shaft to increase the local load of the stern tube bearing and negatively affects the stability of the shaft system.
