Experimental Study on Change of Fuel Consumption in Waves -I. － Examination by Captive Model Tests

波浪中の燃料消費量変化に関する実験的研究-Ⅰ. － 拘束模型実験による検討 －

For the reduction of ship operation cost and green gas emission, the method is discussed to estimate the relationship of fuel consumption in waves by model ship experiment. By controlling the propeller of model ship to be constant in Circulating water channel, the electric power of the motor was measured with deviating the flow speed from balanced point, to simulate the change of propeller resistance by waves. The main engine horsepower in trial was estimated, with analyzing the properties of electric power in measurement, so that it was verified that the validity of this method qualitatively.
