Rules and Regulations

The rules and regulations are issued by organizationswhich may be divided into three categories: -Classification societies: have established standards of construction by the production of rules which have done much to ensure the safety of ships. (ABS, DNV, BV) -Governmental Authorities: concern for the safety of ships and the well being of all who sail the ships (behavior of the people). (Coast Guard) -International Authorities, IMO (International Maritime Organization)

Mid Cross Section of a ship

*

If W.L. is parallel to the baseline (keel line), the ship is floating evenly. If not parallel, the ship has a trim.

Trim = da df Trim (in radians) = (da df )/ L Average draft = (da + df )/ 2Free board (f.b) is the distance measured downwards from the deck to the W.L.

Usually f.b. is minimum at midshipMinimum f.b is required by International Law.

*

Line Drawing:

Using the methods of descriptive geometry, the form of a hull is drawn on a scale (1:50 or 1:200) drawing, which is called Lines Drawing, or simply the lines or lines plan. (See p34 Figure 3.4 Lines plan).

Lines drawing mainly consists of three plan views

Sheer plane (Buttock plane, Buttock lines) : parallel to the longitudinal central plane (2m, 4m, etc are the distances from the center plane)

*

Half-Breadth plane (Water plane, Waterline planes): parallel to the base plane (2m, 4m, .are the distance form the base plane)

Stability

A floating body reaches to an equilibrium state, if 1) its weight = the buoyancy 2) the line of action of these two forces become collinear.

The equilibrium: stable, or unstable or neutrally stable. Stable equilibrium: if it is slightly displaced from its equilibrium position and will return to that position.

Unstable equilibrium: if it is slightly displaced form its equilibrium position and tends to move farther away from this position.

Neutral equilibrium: if it is displaced slightly from this position and will remain in the new position.

Righting & Heeling Moments

A ship or a submarine is designed to float in the upright position.

Righting Moment: exists at any angle of inclination where the forces of weight and buoyancy act to move the ship toward the upright position.

Heeling Moment: exists at any angle of inclination where the forces of weight and buoyancy act to move the ship away from the upright position.

G---Center of Gravity, B---Center of Buoyancy

Static Stability & Dynamical Stability

Static Stability: Studying the magnitude of the righting moment given the inclination (angle) of the ship*. (That is, the rolling velocity and energy are not considered.)

Dynamic Stability**: Calculating the amount of work done by the righting moment given the inclination of the ship.

*

Static Stability The initial stability (aka stability at small inclination) &, the stability at large inclinations. The initial stability: studies the right moments or right arm at small inclination angles (< 5 degree). The stability at large inclination (angle): computes the right moments (or right arms) as function of the inclination angle, up to a limit angle at which the ship may lose its stability (capsizes). (Cross curves of stability (see Fig. 6-7 at pp 187 (old version pp 156) & Curves of Static Stability (see Fig. 6-8 at pp 187 (old version pp157) )

The initial stability is a special case of the latter.

*

Initial stabilityRighting Arm: A symmetric ship is inclined at a small angle d. C.B has moved off the ships centerline as the result of the inclination. The distance between the action of buoyancy and weight, GZ, is called righting arm.

Transverse Metacenter: A vertical line through the C.B intersects the original vertical centerline at point, M.

*

Location of the Transverse Metacenter

Transverse metacentric height : the vertical distance between the C.G. and M (GM). It is important as an index of transverse stability at small angles of inclination. GZ is positive, if the moment is righting moment. M should be above C.G, GZ >0.

If we know the location of M, we may find GM, and thus the righting arm GZ or righting moment can be determined given a small angle d.

Ship Resistance (Drag )

A ship actually moves at the same time through two fluids, water and air, with widely different density. While the lower part of the hull is moving through water, the upper part is moving through air. Because , the air resistance is usually much smaller than the water resistance, except for those aerostatic support of hydrodynamic support crafts.

Summary: Water resistance (submerged part of a hull) Air resistance (upper part of hull & superstructure)

*

Types of Water ResistancesWave-Making Resistance: Waves are generated on the surface of water and spread away from a ship. Waves possess energy. Thus a ship making waves means a loss of its energy. Wave-making resistance is important to surface ships, especially those of high speeds. Frictional Resistance: arising due to the viscosity of water, i.e. tangential stresses. Because of viscosity & velocity gradient in the direction normal to the ship hull, there is a mass of fluid being dragged along with a ship. Energy necessary to drag the mass of fluid is the work done by the ship against the frictional resistance.

*

3. Eddy-making Resistance: Due to the viscosity of the fluid, the flow separates from the surface of a hull and eddies (vortices) are formed. These eddies induce the changes in the velocity field and thus change the normal pressures on a hull. The changes in the pressure field around a ship result in the eddy-making resistance. Air resistance (mainly resulting from wind resistance).Appendage resistances: are caused by the appendages of a ship, such as propellers, rudders and bilge keels.

Influence of Roughness of a plate on CF

The formulas for computing CF are applied to the flat plates with smooth surface. The rough surface (of a ship) will result in the increase of CF . Roughness (on the surface of a hull) may be classified into 3 types.

Structural roughness: caused by welded joints, warviness of shell plating on the hull. A newly-built ship will have

(for Schoenherr formula).2. Corrosion3. Fouling: caused by the attachment of marine organisms such as seaweeds, shells and barnacles. Corrosion & fouling occur for ships having sailed for a certain period of time. They will decrease the velocity of the ship. Ship owner will decide when the ship should go to the dock for cleaning.

*

Wave-Making Resistance Wave-making resistance is important to a surface ship (negligible for submarine); & its speed is high. Accurately speaking, its Froude # ,

or in U.S. the speed/length ratio, is high. It is noticed that the speed to length ratio is a dimensional coefficient, where V is in knots, L in feet. A nautical mile/hr (knot) = 0.5144 m/s.

*

Ship Wave Pattern

Lord Kelvin (1887) considered a single pressure point traveling in a straight line over the surface of the water, sending out waves which combine to form a characteristic pattern. Transverse Waves

Divergence Waves

*

Ship Wave Pattern

Kelvin wave pattern illustrates and explains many of the features of ship waves. Ship wave pattern is similar to the combination of two Kelvin wave systems generated by two pressure points, with one near the bow and the other near the stern.

Propulsive Devices Paddle-Wheels: While the draft varying with ship displacement, the immersion of wheels also varies. The wheels may come out of water when the ship is rolling, causing erratic course-keeping, & they are likely to damage from rough seas.

Propellers: Its first use was in a steam-driven boat at N.Y. in 1804. Advantages over paddle-wheels are, 1) not substantially affected by normal changes in draft; 2) not easily damaged; 3) decreasing the width of the ship, & 4) good efficiency driven by lighter engine. Since then, propellers have dominated in use of marine propulsion.

Jet type: Water is drawn by a pump & delivered sternwards as a jet at a high velocity. The reaction providing the thrust. Its use has been restricted to special types of ships.

Other propulsion Devices:

Nozzles (Duct) Propellers: main purpose is to increase the thrust at low ship speed (tug, large oil tanker)Vertical-Axis Propellers: Advantage is to control the direction of thrust. Therefore, the ship has good maneuverability.Controllable-Pitch Propellers (CCP): The pitch of screw can be changed so that it will satisfy all working conditions. Tandem and Contra-rotating Propellers: It is used because the diameter of a propeller is restricted due to limit of the draft or other reasons (torpedo). The efficiency of the propeller usually decreases.
