Experiment and numerical simulation study on resistance performance of the shallow-water seismic survey vessel

In this paper, a new type of shallow-water seismic survey vessel is proposed to solve the problem that the traditional seismic survey vessels cannot satisfy the requirements of the shallow-water marine resources exploration. To reveal the influence of shallow water effect on resistance and flow field, this research is to obtain the resistance and shallow-water characteristics of this shallow-water seismic survey vessel through ship model experiments and numerical methods. Firstly, the ship model experiment predicted the resistance at different speeds in shallow water and obtained the benchmark data to validate numerical methods. Then, the CFD methods were used to calculate the resistance of the ship in deep and shallow water. The numerical results are in good agreement with the experimental results. Finally, this paper provided details of the distribution of wave, pressure and flow fields at different water depth conditions in order to explain the causes of increased resistance in shallow water, providing a reference for the shallow-water seismic survey vessel design.
