Impact of Wind-Assisted Technologies on Resistance and Stability of Commercial Ship

The use of fossil fuels on commercial ships significantly contributes to the increase carbon dioxide emission, and adaptation renewable energy can help control that emission efficiently. Historically, extraction wind is found be best solution for ships; recently, with renewed interest in this area, various devices are proposed literature. This study investigates effectiveness one such technology, wing-sail, a tanker ship. NACA 4412 series adopted design sail regard, fowler flap added aid low speed. ANSYS Fluent used carry out CFD simulation-based study. effects onboard wing-sails under apparent angles, speeds, wing-sail orientations have been examined. impact stability ship also analyzed. It concluded save fuel reduce emissions by 1.8% 2.4% while using flap. Also, combination providing extra thrust without sacrificing its stability.
