Abstract

For a ship undergoing roll motion at a resonance frequency, the roll restoring momentand virtual moment of inertia counteract each other and only the damping momentresists the roll exciting moments. Hence, accurate computation of the roll dampingmoment improves the roll motion prediction. There are several methods to calculatethe damping moment; however, most of them fail to consider the viscous effects, suchas the potential theory–based method. The experimental measurements take intoaccount the viscous effect; however, they are expensive. The Computational FluidDynamics (CFD) method is an alternative to accurately consider the viscous effect. Inthis study, a CFD approach based on harmonic exciting roll motion technique isadopted to compute the roll motion characteristics and damping coefficients atdifferent conditions. The impact of appendages, Froude number, and degrees offreedom on roll motion characteristics and damping coefficients are investigated forthe model scale and full scale to study the scale effects. The results at the model scaleare compared against experimental measurements and good correlation was found.
