This second edition provides a comprehensive and scientific approach
to evaluating ship resistance and propulsion. Written by experts in
the field, it includes the latest developments in CFD, experimental
techniques and guidance for the practical estimation of ship
propulsive power. It addresses improvements in energy efficiency and
reduced emissions, and the introduction of the Energy Efficiency
Design Index (EEDI). Descriptions have now been included of pump jets,
rim driven propulsors, shape adaptive foils, propeller noise and
dynamic positioning. Trial procedures have been updated, and
preliminary estimates of power for hydrofoil craft, submarines and
AUVs are incorporated. Standard series data for hull resistance and
propeller performance are included, enabling practitioners to make
ship power predictions based on material and data within the book.
Numerous fully worked examples illustrate applications for most ship
and small craft types, making this book ideal for practising
engineers, naval architects, marine engineers and undergraduate and
postgraduate students.
