Abstract

Due to global warming it is estimated that the arctic ocean route will be avaliable and traffic will increase by approximately year 2030. However, most navigation in the arctic is based on the ice breaker captains'orders, there is no exact measurement of convoy speed and distance between ships. So, this research was conducted to find out the minimum safe separation distance and minimum breaking distance via ship controling simulations, and the results are as stated. For breaking distances, for ships that have a lead distance which is 2~4 times the width of the ship and traveling less than 7 knots, crash astern and crash astern & hard rudder showed no significant difference. But ships traveling at 10 knots there was a decrease in breaking distance of 1L, from 3.5L to 2.5L. By analyzing 10 subject ships by crash astern the breaking distance for 5 knots is 0.98L~1.8L, for 8 knots is 1.9L~4.0L. The minimum safe separation distance in narrow sea-ways is 6L, but as the arctic sea-way is only one-way 3L is required. As the result, it is found that in the arctic the safe escort speed is less than 5 knots, if the escort speed is 8knots or more and by using crash astern & hard rudder to break the safe distance should be kept at 3.4L.

지구 온난화 현상으로 2030년 정도에는 북극해 항로 이용이 연중 가능할 것으로 예상되고 있어 향후에 교통량이 증가할 것으로 판단된다. 하지만 현재는 쇄빙선 선장의 지시에 따라 운항하고 있어 안전 호송 속력 및 간격은 정량화되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 연구인 최소 안전이격거리 및 최단 정지거리에 대하여 선박조종시뮬레이션 수행을 통해 검증하고 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 정지거리 감소에 있어서 lead 간격이 선폭의 2~4배인 경우에 선속이 7 [kts] 이하인 경우 crash astern과 crash astern & hard rudder인 경우에서 유의적인 차이는 없었으나 선속이 10 [kts]인 경우는 3.5L에서 2.5L로 정지거리가 감소함이 확인되었다. 총 10척의 대상선박에 대하여 crash astern을 사용하여 최단 정지거리를 구한 결과 5 [kts]일 경우는 0.98L~1.8L, 8 [kts]에서는 1.9L~4.0L로 나타났다. 좁은 수로에서의 최소 안전이격거리는 6L이지만 북극해 항로는 전방만 해당하므로 3L이 필요하다. 이 결과를 적용하면 북극해 안전호송 속력은 5 [kt]이하이며, 8 [kts]이상으로 호송 시에는 crash astern & hard rudder를 이용하여 호송거리를 약 3.4L 이상은 유지하여야 한다.
