Research Abstract |
The planing ship performance was usually evaluated by tank test which spends much cost and time. The present study proposed a simulation based evaluation method of planing ship performance which is applicable for hull design. The flow around planing ship was solved with potential flow assumption and the wetted surface area and hull bottom pressure distribution in arbitrary planing attitude including chine dry situation was obtained. Based on the calculated hydrodynamic forces acting on the hull, the planing attitude was estimated. The planing attitudes corresponding to various ship speeds agreed well with experimental results except the lowest speed. The transverse stability in inclined planing condition was also evaluated by numerical simulation and it was agreed with tank tests results qualitatively. In addition, a method to estimate the porpoising (longitudinal instability phenomena) occurrence condition based on the simulation was presented.
