Behavior of 24,000 ton dw bulkcarrier with large bulbous bow in seaway; propulsive performance, bending moments amidships and motions of ship model 172.2 m in length bp, representing bulk carrier, were measured in smooth water and in irregular long-crested waves, over speed range corresponding to 10 knots through 16 knots; waves corresponded to long-crested irregular head seas, wind force Beaufort 6; tests were made with conventional bow and with 9% bulb added; among conclusions is that bulb has little effect on power.
