In order to design an Energy Saving Device (ESD), shipyards need to know the forces applied on the structure.
The objective is to develop a methodology able to evaluate the forces applied on an ESD in navigation conditions.
From existing hydrodynamic potential codes, such as HydroStar, and tools developed by Bureau Veritas, the forces applied on an ESD have been evaluated and the methodology has been tested on a Pre-Swirl Stator structure.
The design process for an ESD has been described and tested including static analysis, dynamic analysis and fatigue analysis.
The forces applied on an ESD can be estimated following a design process and a methodology developed in GRIP.
