MANOEUVERING ANALYSIS IN FREE RUNNING SCALED RC MODEL ON 60M MULTI PURPOSE OFFSHORE SUPPORT VESSEL (MPOSV)

Abstract

This project intends to analysis the manoeuvering performance on free running scaled Remote Control (RC) model on Multi Purpose Offshore Support Vessel (MPOSV). A scaled model of 60m MPOSV will be developed consist of RC unit to control the rudder movement. This model also will be equipped with battery powered electric motor, mechanism of rudder control and propeller. Main purpose of this project is to conduct free running model test by using turning circle experiment approach. The model test is run at constant RPM without torque limitation as for a real full scale ship. The track path of the turning circle will be monitored by using Oqus 5+ camera with the help of Qualysis Track Manager Software and the result of experiment will be analyzed and compared with the IMO Resolution A.751 (18).
