Prediction of the Calm Water Performance by the Database of the Model Test

Abstract

This study validated a database that accumulated the calm water model test data of the KRISO. The function to perform the statistical analysis of the accumulated data was added to the database and a regression analysis was performed to predict powering performance in calm water by selecting principal parameters and detailed hull form parameters. The regression line is validated by comparing the computational fluid dynamics results and the model test results in the towing tanks.
