A Power Demand Analytical Model of Self-Propelled Vessels

Javier Zamora    

Resumen

The article herein presents a closed-form mathematical equation by which it is possible to estimate the propulsion power demand of ships as a function of the propeller parameters and total Resistance. The validation of the derived model is conducted by use of the Series 60 Model data and of the Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering (KRISO) Very Large Crude-oil Carrier 2 (KVLCC2) data. In all the cases tested, the derived model explained more than 99.9% of the data variability. Furthermore, the paper describes a practical method for quantifying changes in hull and propeller performance and provides an application example.
