Abstract

Results of the experimental work aimed at characterising the hydrodynamic performance of a 7000 DWT chemical tanker are presented. This vessel is selected as representative of existing merchant ships equipped with conventional screw propellers. The present report is written in fulfilment of the STREAMLINE Project Deliverable D21.1 'Results of model tests on reference configurations.' The work documented herein is performed in the framework of Work Package 21 in which propulsion efficiency enhancements deriving from the application of advanced CFD and numerical optimisation tools in design procedures are investigated.
