This paper presents a method of hull form design for the assistant vessel which is used both as a lighting boat and a fish carrying boat for the fleet of newly formated purse seiner vessels. The optimum hull form parameters are searched by the Sequential Quadratic Programing(SQP) method with the power estimation method of Van Oortmerssen. The prismatic curve is redesigned from that of the reference hull by the Lackenby method. Through the modification of the hull form by using a CAD system, the design procedure is completed. The resistance performances of the reference and the modified hull forms are estimated by using a numerical simulation method. Also, the estimation of seakeeping ability and stability for the modified hull forms are carried out. And then, an optimum hull form is proposed for the designed hull form. Ship model tests for the reference and the designed hull forms are carried out at ship model basin. The results of the experiments show that the effective horse power of the designed hull form is about 22% smaller than that of the reference hull form at design speed. The designed hull form proposed in this study will contribute to the development of the hull form for Korean large purse seiner vessels.

Thanks to the rapid advancement of computational power and development of numerical methods, Computational fluid dynamics techniques are being used widely for the prediction of ship resistance performance. In the present study, an automatic tool was developed to facilitate hull form modification, consequent mesh generation, and flow analysis for parametric study. It is a tedious job to go back and forth between geometry modification and mesh generation for every hull form variation. With the developed tool, users can make multiple hull form variation and their hull form performance prediction easily in a few simple steps. The verification of the developed tool was done by applying it to resistance performance parametric study of a generic POD propulsion cruise ship with different lengths of bow and stern. It is believed that the tool can be extended to more sophisticated hull form variation and help optimize the ship performance more efficiently.

Nowadays, We have had a growing interest in high-speed vessels' because it is very important to save time and cost in marine transportation. The development of hull form for high-speed vessels is high priority to secure the competitive power for the transportation of cargos. Therefore, the demand of the high-speed vessels is gradually increased, but the conventional hull forms are limited by rapidly increasing resistance upon the increase of ship speed in high-speed region. Therefore, new concepts for the hull form of high-speed vessels have been requested. One of the derived hull forms for that demand is the hull form of trimaran type. Trimaran has a very slender main hull as compared with conventional single hull so that is reduced in wave resistance. The slender main hull has the undesirable characteristics of stability, but two side hulls make up for the week points in the stability. That is, trimaran is able to have desirable performances for the resistance and stability. In this paper, for the design of 200TEU class container vessel with trimaran type, which will be cruised in Yellow-Sea region, firstly a preliminary hull is designed, and the model test is carried out with the variation of side hull position. From the experience of the preliminary hull form design, an improved hull form for the 200TEU container are designed, and the model tests are carried out. Also, a numerical computation technique is adopted for the simulation of flow phenomena around the designed hull forms. The final hull form is compared with existing ships for the resistance performance from the computation with computer and ship model tests.

Novel ships are commonly required iterative hull form modifications until she get reputation for new marine environment. Small FRP boats are manufactured in a identical shape with a mould. It implies that every modification step requires great time and expense which makes it difficult to improve the hull form promptly. Domestic hull form of small fishing boat of force has been evolved from the traditional hull form of developable shape. Utilizing this typical developable characteristics of small boats, ,New mouldless production method for FRP boat has been suggested and it is confirmed that the method is recommendable for a petty order of hull in evolving period of hull form development.

This paper presents hull form design details and performance characteristics of the SWATH ship 'SEON JIN' built as an underwater test support ship. The hull form is developed systematically varing sets of 11 form parameters which define a unique hull under waterline. Using this geometry variation scheme we have generated a number of alternatives and selected the final hull which fulfills the design objectives and matches the design constraints. After selecting the final hull form we have investigated performances thoroughly through model tests, and confirmed through sea trials that the performance goals be achieved.

This paper presents the analysis of resistance performance and bow waves for the resistance-minimized hull form of small fishing boat by using numerical simulations and model tests. The resistance-minimized hull form is developed from an original hull form which is selected from existing small fisher boats in our country. In order to estimate the resistance performance for the original and the developed hull form, several numerical simulations and model tests are carried out. Marker and Cell(MAC) method and Marker-Density method are adopted to simulate the free-surface bow waves around advancing hull surface. The results of numerical simulations are compared with the model tests in towing tank. The results show that the resistance performance of the resistance-minimized hull form is improved than that of the original hull form. The results of this study will be a good guide to the hull form development of small fishing boats in future.

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.

Hull form development of the medium size high speed fishery patrol ship was carried out in the CWC at Chosun university. Same size of 15 knots class fishery patrol ship was selected as a parent form(Model number : CU-015), and modified fore and after body hull form under the slightly lengthened lo 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 and sharp entrance angle were adapted. Meanwhile, to enlarge the engine room space keeping high resistance and sea-keeping Performance, U-type stern hull form was developed. Although the hull form was highly constrained in being limited to modification of a parent hull form significant wave resistance improvement was made.

Two hull forms of 2, 500 TEU Container Vessel, designed by Daedong Shipbuilding CO., LTD. were tested at the Circulating Water Channel of Chosun University for the evaluation of resistance performance. The test results of resistance, wave profile measurement and trim-sinkage measurement are compared in the form of diagrams and figures, and the results are discussed. A conclusion is drawn that the performance of modified form (model number : CU-201F2A2) is improved about 8% resistance performance at the design speed compare with original form (model number : CU-201F1A1).
