  • The living performances of crews and passengers in cabins have been less received attention, while Korea is a top leading country in ship building industry. To develop a high value added ships like 5-star cruisers, researches on the comfort and productivity in cabins should be carried out with urgent. The purpose of this study is to measure and analyze of the ship's indoor thermal conditions in spring, summer and winter, and also to compare the seasonal differences, of which conditions are supplied from and controlled by marine HVAC The temperature, humidity and air supply volume of 5 different needs of cabins on a training ship were measured through a year, which was launched at Dec. 2005 and totally 246 crews can go on board for education. The following results were obtained: (1)In the spring, the temperature in cabins was measured as $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$ and humidity was below 30%. (2)In the summer, the temperatures was controlled at $21{\sim}27^{\circ}C$ in almost cabins and humidity was between $40{\sim}60%$ which is known as comfort conditions. (3)In the winter, temperature and humidity was maintained between $19{\sim}26^{\circ}C$, and humidity was between $10{\sim}50%$. (4)It is clear that the humidity conditions in cabins are not properly controlled at all through a year to satisfy the Comfort Standards provided by ASHRAE and/or ISO, In conclusion, humidification and dehumidification of cabins must be treated with importance for more comfort living and working environments for crews and passengers.

  • Operation Abstract : Operational cost required for navigating a ship may differ from according to type, scale, economic speed, navigation area and other factors. However, it is known that the fuel oil price ratio takes 50~60 %. It is the current trend because of the use of poor quality fuel and it is reviewed even for small to medium sized ships to save the operational costs due to the recent rise of international oil price. Furthermore, ocean carriers are taking action to low speed navigation as the alternative method of reducing fuel consumption. Hence, in this study, fuel consumption of main engine was measured by using actual operating ship data compared with sea speed at sea. It was suggested that the area of M/E's load(70 %) lower than NCR is the optimal navigating condition through the relation between speed and fuel consumption compared with advance ratio together with the load.

  • Direct Torque Control[DTC] and Vector Control are the two schemes developed for high performance induction motor drives. DTC based induction motors are being increasingly used in various industrial applications. DTC offers fast torque response and better speed control with lesser hardware and processing costs as compared to vector controlled drives. However, conventional DTC suffers from high torque ripple, current harmonics and low performance during torque transients. In this paper a new Direct Torque Control[DTC] method of induction motor is presented. In comparison with the conventional DTC method, the PWM technique is applied to proposed control method. In this method, decoupling mechanism is not required and the torque, the flux magnitude are under control using PI controllers and generating the voltage command for inverter control. Therefore torque and speed ripple could be reduced in comparison with the conventional switching table DTC.

  • Marine pollution prevention manager system has been operated for the purpose of preventing marine pollution from ships and marine facilities in Korea. As a new "marine environment management act" replacing an old "marine pollution prevention act" had entered into force from January 20. 2008. the works and business of the education and training courses for marine pollution prevention manager are scheduled to transfer from KIMFT(Korea Institute of Maritime and Fisheries Technology) and FHRDI(Fisheries Human Resource Development Institute) to KOEM(Korea Marine Environment Management Corporation) on January 1. 2011. The present state of the education and training for marine pollution prevention managers of marine facilities was surveyed and analyzed in order to prospect trainee demands for the education and training and to provide KOEM with basic data for establishing a new system for the education and training. The existing education and training courses of FHRDI for marine pollution prevention manager of marine facilities have been conducted as a regular course of 21 classes for 3 days. The average annual number of trainees in FHRDI for 6 years from 2003 to 2008 was 187 persons and the annual number of trainee was 202 persons in 2008. The trained demands for the education and training are expected to increase sooner or later, depending major factors such as the extension of fields and ranges for marine facilities and marine environment management business due to the enforcement of new "marine environment management act".

  • Basing on the recommendation and guideline of IALA, Korean VTS authority made an instruction about the training and qualification of VTS operators, and three model courses for training have been performed at a training institute which has one VTS simulator. However, the simulator has not been enough to make training fully satisfactory because of several signs of limitations including inaccurate method for calculating ship's movement and inconvenient location for training. In this paper, a new simulator was proposed to make up for the weak points replacing the current simulator. The proposed simulator adopts mathematical model for calculating exactly ship's movement which heightens the effect of training with simulator. And also it can be used through Internet so as to make long-distance training possible without visiting the training center. The effectiveness and the convenience of training with the proposed simulator are expected to be improved.

  • In developing countries, the establishment of maritime colleges and the training of excellent merchant marine officers can greatly impact on the growth of the marine industry in a given country. The project to establish the Kenya Maritime College ('KMC') has been driven by the Kenyan government, which has been challenged by the growth of the marine industry in Korea. This study aims to the development of curriculum for the navigation science department of the KMC. To do this, firstly the Kenyan environments was surveyed. Then, IMO maritime education requirements, IMO model courses and curriculums from the navigation science departments of major maritime universities around the world were reviewed. Lastly, based on these surveys and reviews, curriculum for the navigation science department of the KMC was developed. This curriculum is comprised of an educational course that requires a total of 5 years of study, including 1 year of on-board training and a total of 200 credit hours (20 credit hours per semester). Although this curriculum has been developed to fit the environments of Kenya, it is expected to offer a point of reference for similar studies in other countries with the goal of standardizing maritime education internationally.
