performance of PJP was 14% higher than the conventional tractor pod mainly due to its superior open water efficiency.

25th ITTC Specialist Committee on Azimuthing Podded Propulsion Questionnaire on Model Test Procedure, Powering Method and CFD Computation Method for Podded Propulsion System Introduction

The task assigned by the 25th ITTC to this specialist committee is to develop and validate practical experimental and numerical prediction procedures for full scale performance of Azimuthing podded Propulsion System. As a first step toward accomplishing the task, the committee developed the following questionnaire to assess current practices in use by various

  • rganizations, including the ITTC member organizations. The analysis of the responses to the

questionnaire will be presented to the 26th ITTC conference as part of the final report of this specialist committee. The questionnaire consists of six(6) parts: (A) Propeller Open Water Test, (B) Podded Propeller Open Water Test, (C) Resistance & Self Propulsion Test, (D) Powering, (E) CFD application (F) Special theme. You do not have to complete all the sections or questions of the questionnaire. If you are not in a position to answer the questionnaire at all, then a null response would be appreciated. If that is the case, please fill in the Respondent’s Information only and return.

The procedure for open water tests of the propellers for a ship equipped with podded propulsors is basically the same as that of Procedure 7.5-02-03-02.1" Propeller open water tests", (ITTC, 2002b) although some typical aspects for propellers with strongly tapered hubs are not considered and these aspects are given in this section where necessary.

The propeller shaft must be immersed at a minimum depth of 1.5 propeller diameters (1.5D), preferably 2D. It must also be emphasized that the top of the strut should also be well submerged during the test.

Pod Housing Drag Correction

  • There is no unique method to match existing model basins

( see the test results obtained by ABB round robin test)

  • Total balance of system accuracy is most important
  • The system should not be too complicated
  • The system should be examined by several means incl. CFD

Where, BBODY , RSTRUT , RINT and RLIFT are components of the resistance associated with pod body (nacelle), strut, pod body-strut interference and lift effect due to swirling flow action of the propeller, respectively.

Conclusions of pod housing drag correction method

  • The most serious problem is a scatter of obtained model

test data

  • It seems that model basins have their own practical

methods

  • Present method can be used when tests are conducted

Ice trials of Cargo Container Ship ‘Norilsky Nickel’,Wilkman(2007)

MV Norilskiy Nickel has been designed to transport mining products from Dudinka (Yenisey River) to the market (Murmansk) independently without icebreaker support. The vessel is equipped with diesel electric propulsion with one 13MW podded azimuth thruster (Azipod). The design of the vessel follows the principles of Aker Arctic’s Double Acting Ship Concept, were the vessel is designed to be run ahead and astern in somewhat different conditions. Norilskiy Nickel has been designed to operate in level ice and pack ice to run both ahead and astern. In heavy ridges the vessel is designed to operate mainly running astern.

Technical Conclusions

(1) Procedure of pod tests and extrapolation are established however, full scale data to evaluate this method will be needed. (2) A lot of complex system of pod propulsion such as CRP type and a hybrid type has appeared and they are not deeply studied so far because of lack of full scale data of such kinds of pod systems. (3) A pod performance at off design condition or manoeuvring condition is so important to affect on not only cavitation and vibration but also fuel

  • consumption. There are many papers mentioned above cavitation and

vibrations at pod steering conditions however, it is also important to design the pod from propulsive performance view point taking an efficiency loss at smaller helm angle (less than 10deg.). (4) CFD becomes very strong tool now to evaluate the scale effect of pod housing drag and extrapolation method.

2.3.2 Test conditions After a resistance test of ship without a pod unit (same as a conventional propeller case), it is recommended that for ships fitted with podded propulsors, self-propulsion tests should be conducted with both the ship speed and the propulsor load varied independently. In addition to Skin Friction Correction of the hull surface, load correction due to pod housing drag correction() should be considered.

TU

K Δ 2.3.3 Test set up The self-propulsion test should preferably be carried out in the following manner: · The pod propellers are to be driven from the top

  • f the unit by an electric motor, through a belt

drive or a geared set of a horizontal and a vertical shafts. · Thrust and torque of the propeller are to be measured close to the propeller. Alternatively the electrical motor could be located inside the pod for direct driving provided that the testing facility has such device available. · The unit thrust is to be measured by means of an at least 2 component measuring frame at the intersection of the pod strut with the ship model, on which frame the motor is fitted.
