화물창의 내부 세정은 압축공기 또는 고압수를 이용하고 있으나 전용 세정기를 이용하지 않은 경우 위험성이 높은 작업이다. 이 연구에서는 화물창 고압세척기를 개발하기 위해 분사노즐의 유동특성을 수치해석 기법을 적용하여 고찰하였다. 그 결과 입자의 크기는 영향은 크지 않았으며 공급압력이 높을수 록 노즐부 끝단에서 유속과 분사거리는 지수함수로 증가하였다.
This study involved the shape of water jet nozzle to promote blasting ability and an increase of projection distance when cleaning VLBC cargo hold. Simulation of water jet projection process inside VLBC cargo hold was done in both 2D and 3D environment. The result are promising since both case show the capability of water contacting the desired target.
This study involved the shape of water jet nozzle to promote blasting ability and an increase of projection distance when cleaning VLBC cargo hold. Furthermore, I researched the effect of pressure, length of reducer, nozzle caliber size and nozzle shape on the nozzle through CFD simulation. Simulation of water jet projection process inside VLBC cargo hold was done in both 2D and 3D environment. Simulation results show installing suitable nozzle can increase the cleaning effect of cargo hold.
The development of a high pressure cleaning system is needed to properly clean cargo hold and improve the working environment of a ship. For this, the study on the parameters related to the suitable capacity of a pressure pump should be preceded.
