Abstract

In this Chapter, measured data of resistance, sinkage, trim, self-propulsion factors, longitudinal wave cut and detailed flow are summarized for Japan Bulk Carrier (JBC) with and without an energy saving circular duct. JBC is a newly designed ship for CFD validation of a ship with an energy saving device (ESD). Resistance and self-propulsion tests are conducted in towing tanks of National Maritime Research Institute (NMRI) and Osaka University (OU) using model ships of different sizes. Detailed local flow data are acquired using SPIV (Stereo Particle Image Velocimetry) for several cross sections at towing tanks of NMRI and OU. The local flow data are also measured by SPIV in a wind tunnel at Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH).
