Resistance and propulsion tests performed on the Cargo Ship model

Il presente report presenta i risultati delle prove di resistenza e autopropulsione eseguite sul modello Cargo Ship, denominato C.2629 secondo il codice CNR-INM, al fine di valutare le prestazioni idrodinamiche della nave. I test sono stati effettuati nell'ambito del progetto di ricerca GATERS - GATE Rudder System as a Retrofit for the Next Generation Propulsion and Steering of Ships (G.A. n. 860337; CUP B55F20001840006). Attività previste nel Task 1.3: Sviluppo/implementazione di accurate procedure di model test per modelli navali con GRS. Per le due condizioni di carico previste (pieno carico e carico di prova), le prove sono state eseguite in due diverse configurazioni del timone, configurazione CRS (common rudder system) e GRS (Gate Rudder System).

This report presents the results of resistance and propulsion tests performed on the Cargo Ship model, named C.2629 according to the CNR-INM code, in order to evaluate the hydrodynamic performances of the ship. The tests were carried out in the framework of the research project GATERS - GATE Rudder System as a Retrofit for the Next Generation Propulsion and Steering of Ships (G.A. n. 860337; CUP B55F20001840006). Activities scheduled in the Task 1.3: Development/implementation of accurate model test procedures for ship models with the GRS. For the two expected load conditions (full load and trial load), tests were carried out in two different rudder configurations, CRS (common rudder system) and GRS (Gate Rudder System) configuration.
