This study was carried out at the CWC of Chosun university for the purpose of resistance performance improvement of planing hull, and the results of the tests were confirmed cooperatively with WJFEL. G/T 100 ton class planing hull form was selected, and the improvement of hull form including appendages were performed by using some model test techniques. The model test scope comprises resistance relative tests including wave profile observation, trim and sinkage measurement and flow visualization tests at full load and trial conditions for one bare hull and for two appended hulls. The final wedge and spray strip combined with improved hull form showed about 1.0 knot speed improvement at both of full and trial conditions, and outstanding improvement for fore wave phenomena.

In this study, hull form of main vessel of Korean large purse seiner fishing industry is developed for the improvement of resistance performance as well as for the satisfaction to the Standard of Fishing Convention, ILO. Through the modification of reference hull form parameters and local characteristics, the hull form development is carried out. The optimum hull form parameters are searched by Sequential Quadratic Programing(SQP) method with the power estimation method of Holtrop & Mannen. To minimize the wave resistance, bulbous bow parameters are determined by the bulbous bow design method of Alvarino. The plasmatic curve is redesigned from that of the reference hull by using Lackenby method. The resistance performances of the reference and designed hull forms are estimated by using numerical simulation method. Also, the judgment of seakeeping ability and the estimation of intact stability for the designed hull form is carried out. As a result, the optimum hull form is proposed. To verify the improvement of resistance performance, model tests are carried out in towing tank. The results show that the resistance of the designed hull form is about 14% smaller than that of the reference hull from at design speed. A new hull form proposed in this study can contribute to the development of the main vessel hull form of Korean large purse seiner fishing system.

In order to prepare the fuel-economic hull form design method for fine higher-speed ships, systematic theoretical and experimental study has been performed on the relation between hull form characteristics and ship's resistance and on the effect of the optimization of main hull form characteristics. The results of this study provide not only a great insight into the relation between ship's resistance and hull form characteristics, but also a proper direction of the optimization of main hull form characteristics for the improvement of ship's resistance characteristics.

A series of model tests carried out at the CWC of WJFEL for the purpose of prediction of resistance for the performance and improvement of resistance by attaching appendage for the ship of 50 knots class planing hull. The resistance performance evaluation has been carried out for the bare hull and for the appendage hull with two different depth of vertical type wedges. In the bare model test, trim and sinkage is calculated for the planing hull and the resistance is calculated. For minimizing the resistance, wedge appendage is attached and tested. Analysis and tests shows that for a 12.5mm wedge, resistance is minimum and overall power tallied to 5636ps.

Present paper shows the basic design procedure for platform support vessel operating in open sea, and hull form development process. General design concept considering the operating mission, operating sea condition and shipping freight, etc. is explained shortly. For the hull form design, the initial hull form was designed based on the reference PSVs. The resistance and propulsion test results for the initial hull form with twin Azimuth thruster were analyzed and a few items for improvement were derived. At the next stage, main parameters including Length, Cp-curve, Cb, Lcb, etc. were changed totally for the hull form improvement. Furthermore, 3 different bulbous bows for the fore-body design to reduce the wave resistance and after-body design to reduce the residual resistance were carried out. The best hull form among the 3 fore-bodies with same after-body was selected through the comparison of wave resistance calculation results. Twin ducted Azimuth thruster with the smaller propeller diameter than the former were adapted to increase the propulsive efficiency. The final hull form with the twin Azimuth thruster was evaluated to satisfy more than the target design speed 14 knots in sea condition with sea margin 15% at the 5,000kW BHP through the model test in KRISO.

The present study established hull form optimization for small catamaran based on variations of knuckle lines. Four knuckle lines below the free surface were employed as design variables. Knuckle lines were independently transformed within remaining the main dimensions of the existing hull. For the hull form optimization, the SHERPA algorithm of HEEDS was utilized. Computational fluid dynamics was employed to estimate the resistance performance. The optimal hull showed the improvement of resistance performance of 9.3% than that of existing hull. The improvement of wave and pressure distributions for optimal hull was confirmed. Throughout the present study, it is expected that established optimization method can be applied for various small vessels such as fishing and leisure boats.

This study was carried out for the hull form development of G/T 340ton class high speed fishery patrol ship by Chosun University at the Circulating Water Channel cooperatively with Korea Maritime Service. Same size of 15knots class fishery patrol ship was selected as a parent form (Model number : CU-015), and modified fore and after body to be suitable for the operation at 20 knots. To minimize the breaking wave in the vicinity of fore body at high speed zone, high bulb nose and slender fore body hull form was chosen as an initial condition. Meanwhile, to ensure the engine room space keeping high resistance-propulsion performance, U-type stern hull form was developed.

An experimental study carried out to predict the performance characteristics of a high speed planing boat at the two displacements whose hull form shows hard chines form transom to bow. In the resistance test the planing hull model was porpoising at and above 30 knots for both displacements of 30 tons and 24 tons. A small stern wedge was newly designed and attached across hull bottom. The planing hull model with the stern sedge did not show any porpoising up to the speed of 45 knots for both displacements and it analysed results shows the improvement of resistance performance and planing performance comparing with those of original hull form; i.e. for displacement of 30 tons the effective power and trim angle were reduced by 18.9% and 5.71 degrees at the speed of 28 knots, and for the displacement of 24 tons the effective power and trim angle were reduced by 23.63% and 4.37 degrees at the speed of 28 knots, respectively.

Korean fishing boats have had appropriate hull forms for the safety, stability and convenience of fishing ability. However, Korean fishermen are recently concerned about the resistance performance and speed of Korean fishing boats, because the prices of fuel oil are gradually risen, also the exhausting of fish resources and the demand of high speed fishing boats are increased. Therefore, the necessity of the study on the improvement of resistance performance for Korean small coastal fishing boats is gradually increased. This study compares the hull form characteristics of Korean fishing boats with those of Japanese fishing boats, and the hull form of a representative Korean fishing boat is modified. From the modification of the hull form parameters for the Korean fishing boat, the improvement of resistance performances is evaluated. Moreover, the increase of resistance performances is also achieved from the modification of local characteristics for the hull form of the Korean fishing boat. A computational method and ship model tests in towing tank are used for the conformations of the improvement of resistance performance.

One of tuna longliners which have excellent operational record at the tropical Pacifical Ocean was selected as a parent hull form for the development of a new ship which could be operate at the high latitude northern Pacific Ocean. The parent hull was modified to adapt operational and enviromental condition of such a weather and sea states. This modification was carried out based on design experiences and model test results in towing tank. In this report modification techniques applied to the hull form design of a tuna longliner are summarized. The powering performance of the developed hull form is evaluated to show 19%, decrease of resistance campared with the parent hull form.
