Abstract

According to the increase of concern for environmental problems, the energy saving becomes an important issue because it is one of the most effective methods of decreasing CO2 which is major environmental problem. In the present study, the post device after propeller related with rudder has been focussed. Recently the full-spade twisted rudder has been frequently used not only to increase the efficiency but also to remove the cavitation risk on leading edge. In addition to that the rudder bulb is also applied to the rudder to increase the propulsion efficiency as well as to minimize the cavitation erosion risk around twisting part. The parametric study has been conducted for investigating the optimum configuration of twisting rudder with bulb by CFD. The present optimization has been applied to the KVLCC2 full-body ship. The verification of the computed results is also expected to be conducted by the comparison with experimental results in the near future.
