An analysis of the combined ORC-TT has been applied to a Wärtsilä 12V46F 14.4 MW diesel to provide an additional 560 kW shaft power and a source of evaporated seawater of 0.824 cubic meters per hour (0.229 kg/s). The water is available at 7 bar pressure at the bottom of a 70m Thermal Tower. The system features two separate ORC bottoming cycle turbines. The system uses a thermal heat exchange fluid to remove heat from the charge air cooler for the compressed air engine inlet, as well as the engine cooling liquid. Another exhaust-to-liquid cooler is used to remove energy from the exhaust downstream of the turbocharger. The heated fluid then passes through a high temperature ORC unit and a low temperature ORC unit. The high temperature ORC can generate up to 409 kW and the low temperature unit 155 kW. The remaining energy in the heat transfer fluid is used via a 70-meter hydration – dehydration Thermal Tower to heat seawater to evaporate water. The combined system offers additional shaft power while providing a source of desalinated water to reduce the load on reverse osmosis water purification systems.","PeriodicalId":336268,"journal":{"name":"Day 2 Wed, September 28, 2022","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127848574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Applications of advanced hydrodynamic concepts, such as considered here hydrofoils, can help unmanned marine craft operate efficiently at higher speeds and have better seakeeping. However, dynamics of such boats are rather complex. In this work, a 6-DOF dynamics model with engineering correlations for hydrodynamic forces is applied to simulate motions of an autonomous hydrofoil craft. Collision avoidance maneuvers based on introduction of a dynamic waypoint outside unsafe zone around a moving obstacle have been modeled. The description of planning decisions, implementation of controls, simulated boat trajectories, and time histories of kinematic and controlled variables are presented and discussed. The developed model can be used for design of unmanned hydrofoil craft and control systems of fast autonomous boats.","PeriodicalId":336268,"journal":{"name":"Day 2 Wed, September 28, 2022","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130251877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a previous paper, the authors demonstrated how the design of a monopole for a 15-MW turbine can be optimized to survive hurricane conditions using several commercially available design tools. This paper extends the study to address multiple loading conditions, including operational working conditions. To do that, different optimizations were run in parallel to find a global solution for multidisciplinary optimization. In the previous study, three independent design tools were used: Wind-plant Integrated System Design and Engineering Model (WISDEM) which was developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), ANSYS Workbench, a finite element analysis program commonly used in the industry, and the ModeFRONTIER integration platform. To simulate the additional loading conditions, the OpenFAST software from NREL is now included in the workflow to estimate the loads in the different conditions examined.","PeriodicalId":336268,"journal":{"name":"Day 2 Wed, September 28, 2022","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132784904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The frequency and amplitude of the surge motions were varied independently and validated using experimental data. The URANSE CFD simulations were validated by comparison with the experimental results and unsteady thin-ship resistance predictions of Doctors et al. (2010). The numerical results show reasonable agreement with rowing shells experimental data and for the most part follow the expected trends across the entire operating range of Froude numbers. However, in this first iteration several discrepancies have been identified between the CFD simulations and the experimental results, especially across the frequency-response metrics. The numerical approach in this unsteady hydrodynamics analysis does indicate that with further adjustments and improvement of the quality of the computational domain, the more complex URANSE CFD simulations have the potential to provide a powerful alternative to experimental testing.","PeriodicalId":336268,"journal":{"name":"Day 2 Wed, September 28, 2022","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128726355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under development internationally for nearly two decades, the second generation intact stability criteria are, in most respects, based on the assessment of the dynamics of stability failures. Therefore, they are unlike previous stability criteria that evaluate quantities of various common static stability parameters against established, but arbitrary, standards for compliance.\u0000 This paper provides an overview of the second generation intact stability criteria, explains how it is intended to be used, its relationship to existing international ship stability criteria, and describes a process by which practicing naval architects may use it. The paper also identifies possible shortcomings of the criteria and areas in which particular caution should be exercised in its use. Lastly, proposals for future enhancement of the criteria are summarized.","PeriodicalId":336268,"journal":{"name":"Day 2 Wed, September 28, 2022","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116696177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
