  • the boundary layer 31 moves along simultaneously with the hull 100 .
  • the boundary layer 31 grows gradually from the fore to the aft of the ship 1 while sailing, thereby the increased cross-section area and accumulated volume weight of drag slows down the speed of the ship 1 .
  • the maximum relative velocity between the hull 100 and the water occurs at the widest section 12
  • the minimum relative velocity occurs at the fore end 11 and the separation point 15
  • the separating point 15 locates between the widest section 12 and the aft end 14 at both sides of the ship 1 . Wake 34 appears behind the separation point 15 .
  • the pressure is inversely proportional to the velocity of water flow, therefore the fore end 11 of the ship 1 suffers the maximum pressure, the pressure decreases gradually to the lowest level at the widest section 12 , and then increases gradually to the maximum at the separation point 15 .
  • the longitudinal total pressure between the fore end 11 and the widest section 12 is greater than the longitudinal total pressure between the widest section 12 and the aft end 14 .

  • the turbulence generator of the ship has a corresponding velocity with the water
  • the impact surface of the turbulence generator is of 60 degrees or less intersection angle with the keel line of the ship.
  • the impact surface of the turbulence generator is parallel or inclined at zero degree relative to the keel line of the ship.
  • the configuration of the turbulence generator is a rectangle, a slanted-face rectangle, a polygon, a trapezium, a triangular pyramid, a cone, a semi-circular cone, a semi cone or any other various configurations.
  • the turbulence generator is adhered, embedded, welded to the surface of the hull or is integrally installed with the hull.
  • the turbulence generator may be made of metal, plastic, wood, bamboo, glass, clay, ceramic or composite materials.

  • At least one turbulence generator may generate a beneficial turbulence behind the turbulence generator to thin the boundary layer, which in turn may delay the separation to reduce the drag of the ship and effectively increase the speed of the ship. Consequently, both fuel consumption and navigation time can be effectively saved.

  • a turbulence generator 2 installed on the hull 100 of a ship 1 comprises an impact surface 21 facing the incoming flow of water for colliding with and generating turbulence when the flow collides with the impact surface 21 .
  • Current C has a relative velocity with the turbulence generator 2 when the ship 1 sails in the water.
  • FIG. 2 when the current C flows pass through the turbulence generator 2 with an attack angle A, more turbulence V will be induced behind the turbulence generator 2 when the current C collides with the turbulence generator 2 .
  • the current C collides with the turbulence generator 2 , the current C exerts a stress F on the impact surface 21 of the turbulence generator 2 .
  • the stress F includes a vertical component Fv perpendicular to the turbulence generator 2 and a horizontal component Fh parallel to the turbulence generator 2 .
  • the component Fv exerting on the turbulence generator 2 becomes a thrust force exerting on the turbulence generator 2 .
  • the turbulence generator 2 Due to the size of the turbulence generator 2 is substantially much smaller than the hull 100 of the ship 1 , consequently the side thrust exerting on the turbulence generator 2 of the component Fv is relatively small.
  • the component Fh is parallel to the turbulence generator 2 , and thus no stress is exerting on the turbulence generator 2 .
  • the turbulence generator 2 may be installed at the stern part of the ship 1 as shown in FIGS. 7 and 7A .
  • the turbulence generator 2 is installed on the underwater side surface of the hull 100 between the widest section 120 and the aft end 140 as shown in FIG. 9 . Furthermore, as shown in FIG.
  • a turbulence generator 2 may be also installed on the bottom surface of the ship 1 between the deepest portion 130 and the aft end 140 of the hull 100 .
  • a plurality of turbulence generators maybe arranged adjacent to each other with or without a gap in between and deposed in a linear, such as a stripe or other configuration on the surface of hull 100 to fit some particular hull shape, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 .
  • FIGS. 4, 5 and 14 respectively illustrate a boundary layer 32 of the laminar flow and a boundary layer 33 of the turbulent flow.
  • the water flow velocity of the interface between the current C and the surface of the hull 100 is zero.
  • the current C is slower near the surface of the hull 100 .
  • the length of the arrows in the figures represents velocity. Since the kinetic energy of the water molecule in the turbulent flow is higher, the water molecule with higher kinetic energy tends to relay the kinetic energy to the surface of the hull 100 , such that the kinetic energy of the water molecule near the surface of the hull 100 increases, and accordingly increase the flow velocity of current C′.
  • the thickness of the turbulent boundary layer 33 is decreased compared with the thickness of the laminar boundary layer 32 . Consequently, the drag caused by the current C to the ship 1 becomes correspondingly less.
  • FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 show a current C passes through the hull 100 of the ship 1 . Since the fore end 110 and the aft end 140 of the hull 100 are pointed, the current C 1 deflects downwards at the fore part of the hull 100 . The current C 2 deflects upwards at the aft part of the hull 100 after passing the widest section 120 of the hull 100 . As shown in FIG. 7A , when the turbulence generator 2 is arranged horizontally, the current C deflects upward at the aft part which forms an angle of attack A with the impact surface 21 of the turbulence generator 2 .
  • the keel line L is the central line between the fore end 110 and the aft end 140 of the hull 100 of the ship 1 .
  • the angle A between the impact surface 21 of the turbulence generator 2 and the keel line L may be less than 60 degrees.
  • the impact surface 21 of the turbulence generator 2 is parallel to the keel line L.
  • the turbulence V can increase the pressure to the aft part of the hull 100 and reduce the pressure difference between the fore and aft halves of the hull 100 , thereby further reduce the drag caused by the pressure difference to the hull 100 of the ship 1 while sailing.
  • FIG. 8 which illustrates the influence of the turbulence generator 2 itself after installed on the surface of the hull 100 of the ship 1 . Since the installed direction of the turbulence generator 2 is substantially parallel to the keel line L of the ship 1 , the normal stress F′ of the current C acting on the normal direction of the turbulence generator 2 by the current C does not affect the speed of the ship 1 . While the tangential stress F′′ of the current C to the turbulence generator is parallel to the heading of the ship H, the resistance of the turbulence generator 2 comes from the tangential stress F′′ is extremely low to the ship 1 .
  • the hull 100 has a length of 6.246 m, width of 1.057 m, draft of 0.322 m
  • the turbulence generator 2 is a pyramid with a length of 2 to 10 cm, width of 0.5 to 2 cm, height of 0.5 to 1 cm.
  • the configuration of the turbulence generator 2 applied in the present invention is not limited by the above example; the configuration of the turbulence generator 2 may be a rectangle, a slant-face rectangle, a polygon, a trapezoid, a pyramid, a triangular pyramid, a cone, a semi-circular cone or a semi cone as shown in FIG. 12 .
  • the dimensions of the turbulence generator 2 may be selected as desired in proportion to that of the hull 100 .
  • the turbulence generator 2 may be adhered, embedded or welded to the surface of the hull 100 , or integrally installed with the hull 100 .
  • the material of the turbulence generator 2 can be made of metal, plastic, wood, bamboo, glass, ceramic or composite materials.
  • FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram of a boundary layer 31 when the current C flows through the hull surface of the ship 1 .
  • the velocity of the current C is slower while close to the hull surface and faster while apart from the hull 100 .
  • FIG. 14 is a schematic view of the laminar flow of the boundary layer 32 being fluctuated by the turbulence generator 2 becoming the turbulent boundary layer 33 .
  • the turbulence generator 2 of the present invention installed on the hull 100 , the turbulence occurs after the current C collides with turbulence generator 2 , thereby the laminar boundary 32 becomes the thinner turbulent boundary layer 33 .
  • the present invention can practically achieve the purpose of the invention by providing the turbulence generator on the underwater side surface between the widest section and the aft end of the ship, or on the bottom surface between the deepest portion and the aft end of the ship to generate turbulence, thereby to thin the boundary layer and delay the separation to increase the pressure to the stern part of the ship, therefore reduce the drag of the ship. Accordingly, the present invention can effectively speed up the ship as well as save the fuel consumption. It is industrial valuable and practically provides a novel improvement for a ship.
