Blast Hardened Bulkhead (BHB) is an important measure that can increase the ship's survivability as well as protect the lives of the crew by mitigating the damage extent caused by an internal explosion in the ship. In particular, both the pressure and the shock impulse should be considered when designing the BHB against reflected shock waves having a high pressure with a short duration. This study proposes a design method for BHB that considers both the pressure and the shock impulse generated during the internal explosion. In addition, analysis and design concepts for accident loads such as explosion, fire, and collision of NORSOK and DNVGL, one of the international design guidelines for the curtain plate type blast hardened bulkhead type applied by the Korean Navy, are utilized. If this method is applied, it is expected that it can be used as a design concept for the pressure as well as the shock impulse of the explosion load of the curtain plate.

The installation methods of diesel engines in ships would be largely classified into two groups : one is the direct mounting system fixing engine directly into double bottom of the hull, and the other is the resilient mounting system having vibration absorbers between engine and ship body such as rubber plate to prevent shocks or vibration transmission. The direct mounting system is generally used for large-sized low speed diesel engines, because the resilient mounting system has difficulties in reducing the natural frequency of engine itself under normal speed. On the contrary, the resilient mounting system is often used for medium or high speed engines for marine propulsion and generator that have light weight and high revolution speed. Recently, it is even applied to engines having relatively low speed(300-400rpm) for fishing boats. Although many researches for the resilient mounting system have been carried out, many problems in applying these results directly to marine vessels because most of these have been used for automobiles. Up to now we have had to depend on the professional foreign company in design and the supply of parts for the resilient mounting system of marinediesel engines utterly. In preseut study, the exciting forces of engines effecting to resilient mounting were examined, and patterns of vibration and evaluation procedure for force transmission from resilient mounting to the body of hull were established. Also, these results were applied to the analysis of free and forced vibration for the rubber-type resilient mounting systems of marine diesel engines. Besides, after changing the various design parameters, such as locations, angles, dynamic characteristics and the number of resilient mountings, the influences on resilient mounting system were also examined.

This Study investigates the Structural Integrity of Boats for Divers, given increased demands for Underwater and Recreational use. We conducted research on a Small Catamaran with a Moon Pool in the center of the Hull, using the Finite Element Method to calculate allowable stress based on the ISO Rule. We computed the coefficients defined in ISO 12215-5 and TC118.1225-7, and determined the suitability of using the ISO Standard and Allowable Stress Design method (ASD) by applying Longitudinal Bending Moment, Torsional moment, and Bottom Slamming Load. We also applied the Ultimate Strength Design Method (LFRD) using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). As a Result of this Research, it was found that ships with a Moon Pool do have Structural Integrity according to their Design in accordance with ISO and KR Regulations.

This paper describes aerodynamic preliminary design performance prediction and flow analysis for centrifugal compressor of the marine middle engine turbocharger. The performance characteristics of turbocharger compressor are investigated at various operating conditions using mass flow rate and revolution speed, and computational flow analysis for impeller and diffuser at design point are performed. Preliminary design results correspond to actual compressor geometric values comparatively by applying modified slip factor. Performance prediction and flow analysis results show good agreement with experiments. Therefore, this will provide the performance prediction in preliminary design, and help to increase the design capability for optimized impeller.

Numerical prediction of propeller performance plays an important role in a marine propeller design process. Program developers are consistently trying to improve diminish predicted errors, and program users need to keep up with the latest ones with minimum expenditure of time and money. We have developed an internet based design system in which clients can design propellers with remote access. In this paper, optimized Internet based Propeller Design and Analysis System (iProDAS) for transferences of the massive data is presented, and a sample design using iProDAS is examined.

Quantitative Feedback Theory(QFT) has been used to design a robust power system stabilizer(PSS) to improve transient and dynamic stabilities of a power system. This design technique is basically accomplished in frequency domain. The most important feature of QFT is that it is able to deal with the design problem of complicated uncertain plants. A basic idea in QFT design is the translation of closed-loop frequency-domain specifications into Nichols chart domains specifying the allowable range of the nominal open-loop response and then to design a controller by using the gain-phase loop shaping technique. This paper introduces a new algorithm to compute QFT bounds more efficiently. The propose QFT design method ensures a satisfactory performance of the PSS under a wide range of power system operating conditions.

The purpose of this study is to establish the designing method of ORC(Organic Rankine Cycle) radial inflow turbines. RTDM(Radial Turbine Design Modeler) Ver.2.1 which is a preliminary design program of radial inflow turbines was developed to achieve this purpose. The 200kW-class radial inflow turbine for OTEC(Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion) was designed by using the RTDM Ver.2.1 and CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation was performed to verify the accuracy of RTDM Ver.2.1. With the result of simulation, the accuracy of RTDM Ver.2.1 was almost 94.6% based on the designed total enthalpy drop of the radial inflow turbine. Strategy of adjusting the mass flow rate was adopted on this study to satisfy the requirements of its power and rotor outlet's conditions for the designed radial inflow turbine. The mass flow rate was consequently increased to 21.2 kg/s for the designed 200kW-class radial inflow turbine for OTEC, and then Total to total and Total to static efficiency are 89.8% and 85.36% respectively.

The release of polluting gases such as NO/sub x/ of SO/sub x/ to the atmosphere from ships is causing increasing concern. To reduce destruction to the marine environment, the value of the utilization of photovoltaic energy is highly appreciated since photovoltaic energy is and alternate clean energy source to fossil fuels. The use of a photovoltaic generating system to supplement diesel engine driven electric power system on ships has been studied. The design of the photovoltaic generating system based on a photovoltaic array is presented in this paper. The amount of NO/sub x/ and SO/sub x/ emission is found to be significantly reduced for a small vessel operated within a harbour after a photovoltaic generating system is installed to supplement the diesel engine generator system.

The aim of this paper is to design an adaptive speed control system of a marine diesel engine by fusion of hard computing based proportional integral derivative (PID) control and soft computing based fuzzy control methods. The model of a marine diesel engine is considered as a typical non oscillatory second order system. When its model and the actual marine diesel engine ate not matched, it is hard to control the speed of the marine diesel engine. Therefore, this paper proposes two methods in order to obtain the speed control characteristics of a marine diesel engine. One is an efficient method to determine the PID control parameters of the nominal model of a marine diesel engine. Second is a reference adaptive speed control method that uses a fuzzy controller and derivative operator for tracking the nominal model of the marine diesel engine. It was found that the proposed PID parameters adjustment method is better than the Ziegler & Nichols' method, and that a model reference adaptive control is superior to using only PID controller. The improved control method proposed here, could be applied to other systems when a model of a system does not match the actual system.
