Definitions
- the total hull resistance of a ship includes many components having different physical causes.
- the greater part of the total resistance is the viscous resistance.
- theory in the field of viscous resistance has not developed sufficiently to enable a practically useful theoretical approach even to design of the forward portions of a ship.
- the bow form generally known as a cylindrical bow has a minimum resistance in the full loaded condition when properly designed to suit the main hull portion, but is inferior, in the ballasted condition as regards resistance, to a well designed bulbous bow suited to the main hull portions, which latter gives low resistance in a ballasted condition.
- the resistance and propulsive performance of the bulbous bow are, however, very sensitive to changes of the forward draft due to the alteration of load or other conditions, and so in extreme cases the bulbous hull form can give the worst results in overall comparison tests.
- FIG. 1 is a diagrammatical system for the hull of a ship
- FIG. 2 is a diagrammatic representation of a measure of the bluntness of a hull form of the invention
- FIG. 3A is a diagrammatic side view of the bow or stem tion of a hull fonn embodying the present invention
- FIG. 3B is a diagrammatic plan view of hull sections of FIG. 3A taken at the several elevations A-F of FIG. 3A;
- FIG. 4 is a graph diagrammatically illustrating the variation in bluntness of the bow or stem portion of FIG. 3, with changing draft;
- FIG. 5 is a graph diagrammatically illustrating the results of tests on conventional cylindrical and bulbous bow hull forms and a hybrid of both types.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 diagrammatically represent the results of comparative model tests on the three hull forms of FIG. 5 and on two additional forms constructed in accordance with the present invention, the graph of FIG. 6 representing the performance under ballasted conditions while the graph of FIG. 7 illustrates the performance under fully loaded conditions.
- the total resistance of the hull of a ship may be broken down in general as follows, according to the cause of the various resistance components:
- FIG. 2 illustrates this definition, the bluntness at the cross section illustrated therein being Y.
- the invention provides a full form ship hull having a block coefficient of 0.75 or more and a length of 120 meters or more between perpendiculars, in which l) the bluntness Y, (as hereinbefore defined) of the portion of the fore edge of the stem in the region of the fully loaded water line lies within the following limits:
- a protruding portion 5 extends forwards therefrom for a distance I where 0.02 L s l 0.04 L (L,,, is the length between perpendiculars) (4) the bluntness (Y,,) of the fore edge of that partof the protruding portion more than 1/3 ahead of the perpendicular portion is substantially constant and
- the extent of the perpendicular portion below the full load water line should be determined according to the depth at which the undesirable influence of the term exp(K Z sec 0), resulting from the existence of a bulbous part in the aforementioned formula (I) becomes small, if the advantages of a cylindrical bow in the full-loaded condition are to be maintained.
- the principles of item (II) can be applied to the upper part of the forward projection, making it less blunt, and it may be formed as a slightly convex ridge up to about the height of the wave surface generated at service speed in the ballasted condition. This requires a rapid decrease in the bluntness of the fore edge of the stem in the downward direction, but this can be arranged by suitably pairing the lines around the bow.
- bluntness of protruding portion fore edge projecting by more than 1/3 is between 0 and Y,/3 (see FIG. 4)
- bluntness Y extends below water line by at least percent of fully loaded draft (see FIGS. 3 and 4)
- the graphs in FIGS. 6 and 7 show that the hull forms CF and CF surpassed their parental hull forms in both ballast and fully loaded conditions.
- the result of providing the substantially constant bluntness Y, for the substantially cylindrical bow in the region of the fullload line and the substantially constant bluntness Y for the fin, as illustrated in FIG. 4, is particularly apparent from FIG. 38 from which the simplicity of the structure of the invention is clearly apparent and from which it is apparent that the results of the invention are achieved primarily by improving a cylindrical bow.
- the forwardly projecting fin as is apparent from the lower portion of FIG. 3A, has a continuous convex curvature extending forwardly and downwardly to the front tip of the fin and then rearwardly and downwardly to a point beneath the cylindrical bow at the full-load line region.
- the fin has a relatively small radius of curvature with the center of the curvature of the fin at least at its front tip region being situated behind the tip but forwardly of the bow portion which is of substantially cylindrical configuration at the full-load line.
- a hull form according to the present invention has the merits both of a cylindrical bow and a bulbous bow simultaneously and, as will be apparent from the above test results, enables a decrease of the water resistance offered by the hull in both the fully loaded condition and the ballasted condition.
- said hull having in the region of said full-load line a bow of substantially cylindrical configuration extending vertically through a given depth and having a substantially constant first bluntness, and said hull having in the region of said ballast line a forwardly projecting continuously curved, convex fin of a substantially constant second bluntness which is substantially less than said first bluntness, and said fin having an upper portion of the configuration of a convex ridge forming a transition between the cylindrical portion at the full-load line and the forwardly projecting fin at the ballast line.
- a full form ship hull said hull having a block coefficient of 0.75 or more, a length between perpendiculars of at least meters, a stern, said stem having a fore edge and a fully loaded water line, in which:
- bluntness Y (as hereinbefore defined) of a portion of said fore edge of said stem in the region of said fully loaded water line lies within the following limits;
- said portion of said fore edge of said stem extends perpendicularly below said fully loaded water line at said fore edge of said stern by at least l5 percent of the fully loaded draft with substantially the same bluntness;
- a protruding portion is provided below said portion of said fore edge, said protruding portion extending forwards therefrom for a distance I where;
