This study was focused on the estimations of air pollutants, such as PM(Particulate matters), SOx(Sulfur Oxides), $CO_2$(Carbon diOxides) and NOx(Nitrogen Oxides), from a diesel propulsion engine installed on a naval vessel. Legislative and regulatory actions for exhaust emissions from ships are being strengthened in international communities and national governments to protect human health and the environment. In this context, various technologies have been developed from all of the nations of the world to meet strict standards. These regulations are based on commercial ship applications and according to size, but are not suitable for military naval vessels, which have much different engine operating conditions and hull architectures. Additionally, there is no international emission control system for military ships. Emission factors have been updated for commercial ship types from work at various research institutes; however, it is difficult to develop emission factors for military vessels because of their characteristics. In this paper, exhaust emissions from diesel engines installed on naval vessels under steady navigation condition were estimated with emission inventory methodology applied to ocean going vessels using fuel-based methods and fuel sulfur content analysis.

When a fire occurs on a naval vessel, rapid suppression and control are essential to mitigate potential human and material losses. Due to the nature of naval vessels, the risk of fuel fires is significant, making the use of aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) crucial for effective fire suppression. Additionally, the possibility of fires occurring within compartments on the vessel must also be considered. Understanding the trajectory and application range of AFFF in such environments is vital, necessitating the design of firefighting systems tailored to compartmental conditions. In this study, an analysis was conducted to investigate the feasibility of applying spray height and angle for AFFF using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methodology as a validation tool. Based on these findings, CFD analysis results applicable to compartment environments on naval vessels were obtained. These results will serve as the foundation for the development of firefighting systems capable of promptly responding to fuel fires within naval vessel compartments.

After patrol corvett Cheonan was hit and sank on duty, the Republic of Korea Navy has tried to install hybrid propulsion system on naval ship to reduce vibration and noise problems during navigation. The hybrid propulsion system has advantage that propulsion motor can be propelled in low speed operation of the vessel. This can be a better quietness than a mechanical propulsion system which consists of a conventional internal combustion engines. And more economical operation is possible by using a propulsion motor in a low speed operation where a fuel efficiency of the internal combustion engine is poor. In this paper, we set up virtual ship on the basis of a combat support ship in the Republic of Korea Navy, economically compared and analyzed fuel consumption between conventional and hybrid propulsion system. As a result, it was confirmed that the fuel efficiency of hybrid propulsion system which use electric motor had been relatively improved.

The mast is the highest structure in a naval ship, and various communication and radar antennas are installed to achieve long-range communications and line of sight. The U.S. and European navy currently are adopting integrated mast to their new ships, as it can reduce the Radar Cross Section(RCS) of the new ships and thus improve survivability of the ship. In this paper, when other navies adopt integrated masts on new ships, types of antennas, according to the cases that the antennas are integrated on the integrated mast or not, are analyzed. Also the types of antennas and transmission techniques for the radio communication equipments of the Korean Navy are analyzed in various frequency bands. For adopting an integrated mast on Korean new ships, the effects of the ship RCS according to the types of antennas, the possibility of integration the antennas and the integrated mast and considerations were presented.

Ships operated at sea for a long time are subjected to various kinds of loads, which may cause various types of damage. Such damages will eventually reduce the strength of hull structures. Therefore, it is necessary to estimate and evaluate the residual strength and remaining fatigue life of aging ships in order to secure structural safety, establish a reasonable maintenance plan, and make a judgment of life extension. For this purpose, the corrosion damage and local denting damage should be measured, fatigue damage estimation should be performed, and material properties of aged steel should be identified. For this study, in order to investigate the mechanical properties of aged steel, steel plates were obtained from a naval ship that reached the end of her life span. The specimens were manufactured from the obtained steel plates, and static and dynamic tensile tests, fatigue tests, and metallographic tests were performed. The mechanical properties obtained from the aged steel plates were compared with those of new steel plates to quantify the aging effect on the mechanical properties of marine steel materials.

중국 해군의 성장은 동아시아의 안보환경 변화에 지대한 영향을 미치고 있으며, 한국 해군 또한 그 영향에서 벗어날 수 없는 실정이다. 대한민국은 중국과 지리적으로 맞닿아 있으며, 현재 불법 중국어선 및 이어도 문제 등 중국과의 수많은 해양갈등을 겪고 있는 상황으로, 이에 대한 적절한 대응을 위해서 한국 해군은 중국 해군의 현대화에 대한 대응을 준비해야만 한다. 본고는 중국과 한국의 해군력을 로버트 토마스 전 미 해군 중장이 제시한 지휘, 통제, 능력, 수량의 네 가지 측면에서 분석 및 비교하였다. 중국 해군은 적의 접근을 원해에서부터 차단하는 것을 목표로 하고(지휘), 그에 걸맞게 C4I 능력을 확충해나가고 있으며(통제), 전력투사. 수중/수상전, 해상재보급 역량을 늘려가고(능력), 최근 4년간 세계 대다수 해군의 총 톤수를 능가하는 수준의 함정건조 추세를 보이고 있다(수량). 한국 해군은 90년대 이후 "대양해군"을 목표로 해왔으며(지휘) 아덴만까지 실시간으로 통제 가능한 뛰어난 C4I 능력을 갖추었으나(통제), 아직 대양해군에 걸맞는 능력 및 전력을 구비하였다고 보기는 어렵다. 한국 해군이 상기 네 가지 측면에서 중국 해군을 따라잡는 것은 거의 불가능에 가깝다. 중국은 GDP의 2% 이내에서 국방비를 책정함에도 매년 GDP의 2.7%를 국방비에 투자하는 한국 국방비의 6배를 상회하며, 이 격차는 계속 커져가는 추세이다. 따라서, 대한민국 해군은 첫째, 잠수함 등 비대칭 전력 확보에 주력하고 방공/대잠능력 등 방어력을 향상시켜야 하며, 둘째, 관련국과의 긴밀한 협력을 통해 동아시아 및 서태평양 지역에서의 해양안보 안정화를 위해 노력해야한다. ADMM+3 등 다자 안보의 틀 안에서 역내 해양의 안정을 꾀할 수 있도록 한국 해군은 정책적 노력을 경주해야할 것이다.
