TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a fully nonlinear unsteady RANS simulation to predict the ship motions and added resistance of a full scale KRISO container ship model, and to estimate the increase in effective power and fuel consumption due to its operation in waves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting the effect of biofouling on ship resistance using CFD
TL;DR: In this paper, a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based unsteady RANS model which enables the prediction of the effect of marine coatings and biofouling on ship resistance and effective power was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of barnacle fouling on ship resistance and powering
TL;DR: Predictions of added resistance and the effective power of ships were made for varying barnacle fouling conditions, and the results indicate that the effect of barnacle size is significant, since a 10% coverage of barnacles each 5 mm in height caused a similar level of added power requirements to a 50% coverage each 1.25mm in height.
Journal ArticleDOI
A CFD model for the frictional resistance prediction of antifouling coatings
TL;DR: In this paper, a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model was proposed to predict the effect of antifouling coatings on frictional resistance of a ship.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design optimisation of Propeller Boss Cap Fins for enhanced propeller performance
TL;DR: In this article, an approach for optimising PBCF by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis was presented, which showed a net energy efficiency improvement of 1.3% contributing to a substantial minimisation of cost and energy consumption.
