STOPPING ABILITIES OF SHIPS EQUIPPED WITH CONTROLLABLE PITCH PROPELLERS, PART 1.

Recently KHI built three kinds of ship each equipped with a controllable Pitch Propeller (CPP). They are higher-powered ships in comparison with those built before. The ship types are Reefer, Container and Ore/Oil Tanker. As speed and size of ships increase, the necessity of stopping ability has increased. Investigations on the stopping abilities of ships with Fixed Pitch Propeller (FPP) have been reported in detail by many researchers, but those on CPP ships are very rare. As the first step of the investigation on the stopping abilities of ships equipped with CPP, the authors report crash astern test results compare them with those of FPP ships. Furthermore they show the results of computation of the transient phenomena in case of CPP ships by using one dimensional equation of motion and compare them with sea trial results.
