Multihull and Surface-Effect Ship Configuration Design: A Framework for Powering Minimization
The powering issue of a high-speed marine vehicle with multihulls and air-cushion support is addressed, since there is an often need to quickly evaluate the effects of several configuration parameters in the early stage of the design. For component hulls with given geometry, the parameters considered include the relative locations of individual hulls and the relative volumetric ratios. Within t...
متن کاملA Review on the Drag Reduction Methods of the Ship Hulls for Improving the Hydrodynamic Performance
Hydrodynamic performance of a marine vessel mainly depends on the frictional and pressure resistance. Pressure drag reduction could be achieved by improving the shape of the vessels with implementation of modern hull forms. Hull forms optimization techniques could also be used for this purpose. Other techniques are needed to deal with the viscous portion of the total resistance, which is mainly...
متن کاملAn Adjoint Method for Design Optimization of Ship Hulls
We present a design optimization method for reducing the wave resistance (drag) of surface piercing hulls. Since this component of the drag is directly related to the energy contained in the wave structure that extends behind the ship, a fully coupled calculation of the flow field and wave evolution equation is required. The method combines the authors’ efficient automatic shape optimization te...
متن کاملDesign Trade-off Analysis for High Performance Ship Hull with Air Plenums
Ship designs with captured air plenums can provide benefits of reduced resistance and improved seakeeping performance. In order to design such ships, hydrodynamics computations are needed. We have extended our boundary element method code, 3DYNAFS, to the study of multi-hulls with air plenums and to predict wave resistance in the presence of the air plenum free surface. We also utilized an Unst...
