Abstract:
The attractiveness and successful application of catamaran form for passenger's vessels had inspired the naval architect to use it as fishing vessels. The investigation was carried out both experimentally and numerically. Optimum geometry or ship hull is LWL=14.5m, B=7.118 m, H=1.44 m, T=0.694 m, Displacement=11.8 ton, selected from previous work. It is then followed by model testing and evaluation for the selection of power combinations. The current work describes the development of hybrid technology for a catamaran fishing vessel using solar-sail. The models were tested at speed equal to the real vessel's speed at open sea from about 9.813 knots, and the Froude numbers were about 0.423 obtained resistance value about 6,138kN and giving the effective power (PE) about 60 kW and 6.685kN Thrust. Finally, discovered the combination of solar-sails had reached the optimum benefit of the hybrid concept of zero emissions.
