세계적으로 온실가스 및 대기 오염물질 배출 저감을 위한 환경 규제가 점점 강화되고 있는 가운데, 국내에서도 ‘2030 친환경 관공선 전환 계획’을 수립하여 선박의 온실가스 배출량 저감 기술 개발과 친환경 소형 연안선박 건조 및 실증 사업을 추진하고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 연안 선박의 전기복합 추진을 위한 핵심 기자재인 기어박스의 설계에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. ROMAX 소프트웨어를 활용하여 전동기 구동, 엔진 구동, 엔진 구동 발전 등 다양한 운전 모드에서 기어의 강도와 치물림 상태를 확인하고, 치형 수정 최적화를 수행하였다. 또한 위상 최적화 기법을 이용하여 기어박스 하우징의 경량화 및 최적화를 수행하였다.

With the restriction of foreigners’ entry into Korea due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the fishery industry faced significant challenges in supplying migrant workers. In response to this, there is growing interest in methods that could facilitate the stable employment of migrant workers. This paper investigates whether the current system used for the employment of migrant workers in the fishery industry, which is highly dependent on them, adequately performs its function of providing a stable and skilled workforce amid the intensified labor shortage resulting from decreasing numbers of households with employment in the fishery and the aging Korean fishermen. To this end, past studies and government documents pertaining to the current system were analyzed, and a survey targeting the owners of offshore fishing boats that employ migrant workers was conducted. A total of 147 owners of fishing boats responded to the survey, and the data of 499 migrant workers employed by them were used for the analysis. The analysis indicated that the migrant fishermen had difficulty in acquiring minimum scores for the change of visa status according to the criteria for the Skilled Worker Points System. Furthermore, distinct differences were found between the characteristics and working conditions of migrant workers employed through the Employment Permit System (EPS) and the Foreign Seamen System. Based on this result, this paper suggests the reorganization of the skilled migrant worker system in the fishery industry and the expansion of the regional specialized visa pilot project.

This paper is the result of a comparative analysis of crew members' workloads using the EMG and OWAS methods according to the fishing process before and after the improvement of the operating system of the experimental vessel, with the aim of improving operational efficiency and safety work of coastal improved stow net fishing vessels. The target crew members were three people with at least five years of experience on board the same fishing vessel as the experimental vessel. After improving the operating system, such as installing a power block crane and two capstans, change the location of the ball-roller, the time required for setting and hauling work decreased (p < .01), and the evaluation results by OWAS showed that the overall workload for setting and hauling net work decreased. The results of muscle activity analysis showed a decrease in lashing anchor work (p < .01) in the case of hauling net and in anchor dropping work in the case of setting net (p < .001). It is judged that the use of ball rollers in net handling has been reduced; consequently, work safety has been improved.

In this study, the stability of fishing boat inducing the change of fishing lamp in accordance with the installation of induction lamp in comparison with metal halide lamp was investigated. Inclining test for 8.55 ton class of hair-tail angling fishing boat was performed in order to find a GM and light weight. A stability calculation of the target fishing boat on the basis of KST-SHIP program was evaluated. The stability of the fishing boat with a metal halide lamp such as induction lamp according to the result obtained by the inclining test is slightly different, and the stability is not so much affected. Due to the induction lamp installation, the wind area increased by about 3.178 m 2 . Before installing the induction fishing lamp, G0M was found to be 0.209 at full load departure and 0.296 at departure from fishing ground. After installing the induction lamp, the full load departure condition is 0.178 and the fishing ground departure condition is 0.260. The G0M value before and after installation of the induction fishing lamp shows a difference of about 3% at the full load departure condition. The value of the critical angle of inclination definition showed a difference of about 16%. Despite these differences, it is lower than the regulations; it was confirmed that there will be no significant difference unless it is in an overloaded state.

국제해사기구(IMO)를 필두로하여 국제적으로 선박에 대한 배출가스 규정을 강화하고 있으며, 대한민국 정부도 온실가스 감축 을 위한 기본 로드맵을 설정하는 등 배출가스 저감을 위한 대책 마련이 절실한 상황이다. 또한, 국내 연안을 항해하는 선박에서 배출되는 온실가스 배출량 중 90.6%를 차지하고 있는 어선에 적용가능한 효율적이고 배출가스량이 감소가능한 새로운 추진시스템의 도입이 절실 하다. 본 연구에서는 국내 연안어선에 적용가능한 전기복합 추진시스템을 제안하고, 전기복합 추진시스템이 적용가능한 대상선박을 선정 하였다. 선정된 기존 대상어선에 탑재된 추진시스템과 비교하여 개발된 전기복합 추진시스템을 적용할 경우 발생할 수 있는 예상 연료소 모량을 비교하기 위한 시뮬레이션 시스템을 Matlab/Simulink를 이용하여 구성하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 기계식 추진시스템, 전기복합 추 진시스템(배터리 육상충전을 하지 않은 경우, 육상충전을 한 경우)간의 연료소모량 결과를 확인하였으며 전기복합 추진시스템을 적용하 는 경우 약 13%, 16%의 연료소모량이 감소될 수 있는 것을 보여주는 결과를 확인하였다.

Environmental noise occurring on ships has various negative impacts on sailors’ health conditions such as hearing loss, sleep disturbance, psychological stress, etc., so regulations on them are required, but the ship noise regulations are usually applied to only large merchant ships. Although regulations on fishing boats with strong fishing and work intensity are determined to be necessary, there has been little relevant research. This study, therefore, attempted to measure the environmental noise of coastal composite fishing vessels less than two tones and provide the results of basic research on the noise regulations for fishing vessels. It measured them by setting the measurement zones as after side, midship and fore side, and based on the criterion of IMO MSC 337(91). The findings showed that the noise of them often exceeded 75dB(A), the criterion of the open deck noise in the zones in which the load of main engines was increased. In particular, the noise of the stern was as high as 92.2dB(A) during the full ahead. Hence, hearing loss may be caused by such a noise, so a variety of regulations on it are determined to be necessary.

We analyzed work safety risk factors, which are likely to occur during fishing in gillnet fishing vessels using the written verdict of the Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal from 2016 to 2020, and considered work safety management. Of the total of 37 fatal accidents, three cases in the East Sea, six cases in the South Sea, and 28 cases in the West Sea were very frequent. The accident rate per vessel by sea area (%) was 0.08% in East Sea, 0.12% in South Sea, and 0.40% in the West Sea. Based on the East Sea, the number of fatal accidents was 1.6 times higher in the South Sea and 5.4 times higher in the West Sea. Six cases (16.2%) occurred during departure and preparation for fishing in the fishing process, and all other 31 cases (83.8%) occurred during fishing operation. In the order of accident types, 21 cases (56.8%) of being struck by object, eight cases (21.6%) of contact with machinery and six cases (16.2%) of falls from height were found to be fatal accidents in gillnet fishery. Human factors, such as fishers’ carelessness and negligent safety management by captain accounted for 27 cases (73.0%) of the main cause, and 35 cases (94.6%) of the secondary cause. In addition to human factors such as fisher’s carelessness and negligent safety management by captain, mechanical factors, environmental factors and management factors must be improved together to reduce human casualties. These results are expected to be utilized as basic data for reducing safety accidents during the work of fishers.
