Wow Vasilis, you do know what we are talking about here! Cool. This video was made to translate and explain in a more friendly way the process, but there are lots of deeper details and huge efficiency studies to find the sweet spot. Thanks for your contribution.

How to get job in your tanker ship?

[@welshpete12]

Only in light wave conditions would a non bulbous bow be an advantage. The main advances shown here , are the engine and the propeller design .

[@vasilisstavridis6387]

The phenomenon you are talking about is called wake reduction which is caused due to the reduction of the relative speed of propeller and water due to water flow following ships movement. What you must keep in mind is that, overall, the hull of the ship is designed to increase propeller efficiency due to the streamlines of the water converging at the stern of the ship, which gives an increased propulsive efficiency compared to propellers open water efficiency.

[@azelignacio237]

Hope to be onboard on one of those tankers someday

[@rehan-febri]

How did you do?

[@leopardtiger1022]

I have done research to reduce drag in tankers. And how to reduce impact of huge waves on off shore oil platforms.

[@stagbeetle1050]

Well done

[@therakisback]

wow great ship

[@JK3Dstudio]

👍👍👌nice work!!

[@zqtech.5421]

Amazing video...

[@electron2601]

Great work on this video. Well presented.

[@mohammadsaputra4522]

Good luck TK

[@friendstv6570]

so nice

[@superiormusic]

I have heard that placing the propeller at the bow, facing foreword would also increase the efficiency of the propeller. Somebody should try that.

[@elangprakoso1768]

what software do you use for ship modelling above?

[@DubstepBubbles]

Everything sounds great and all, but I'm not sure I like the removal of the bulbous bow, generally it increases the streamline of the bow.

[@genesmolko35]

Yeah, the bulbous bow replaced the kind of bow depicted here.

[@Ben31337l]

The bulbous bow was designed to decrease stress on the hull by decreasing the wave size created by the bow. Not sure how removing it increases efficiency.

[@EshwarChandraGupta]

a bulbous in tanker reduces the wave breaking resistance not the wave making in full form types of ships

[@paytongulley301]

Well since you don't like it lets add it back...

[@paytongulley301]

If you would listen it tells you why they removed it... Does it really Matter anyway?

[@UlyssesPinhoPinho]

Porque não é em português?

[@JugglingSEXMonkey]

I don't get why they still put the propeller faced the wrong way (with the hull moving water away from the propeller. If they turn the propeller shaft around and let the propeller take in untouched water (this is why the propeller of an aiplane is on the front of the plane, not at the back). This saves a lot of energy, and some smaller boats already have this

[@supertrinigamer]

Why reduce blade amount? Wouldn't that push less water in each revolution?

[@Zeckmon3]

Meh i like to stay with the bulbous bow its better. Also just wondering why not add a high gear transmission? Doest’t let the ship move faster?

[@welshpete12]

I'm not sure what you mean . Do you mean it would be better if the ship was faster ? If so not it would not , it would cost more in fuel burn .

[@adamp.3739]

Good idea, mate. Low gear for harbour maneuvering, high gear for ocean cruising. Like the overdrive option in cars, this could possibly save thousands of $$$$ each year. Trouble is, the gearbox could break down, stranding the ship if that's the case. But otherwise, great idea!

[@FITA-369]

👌👌👌

[@rocadezona85]

Speed was strangely never mentioned

[@genesmolko35]

One of those parachute sails would help with fuel, give the crew something to do.

[@welshpete12]

been tried , but found not to help in savings

[@enterprise59]

So what purpose does the bulbous bow server?

[@errornamenotfound3983]

It is supposed to make ships more efficient but tankers are so large that the bulbous bow actually works against the tanker

[@paytongulley301]

I think they are ugly

[@gauravghosh3421]

+Payton Gulley No the look butter.

[@leonvdm]

+〈ERROR Name not found〉 sounds interesting, whats your source?

[@DirectorBird]

Normally it would help cut waves but...

[@BharatVerse]

we shippies are behind the world, but sill we manage to deliver at the cheapest possible cost.

[@bobbyjoe1111]

I'll take three of them please

[@bobhoskins9979]

Is this done in maya?

[@georgewashington938]

and the cargo is certified organic

[@nickbreen287]

I'll take 14, can you post them?

[@hablerz]

I thought that the bulb at the bow of the tanker was designed to break the water up before it hit the bow? It now looks like older designs. In any case ill take two.

[@lawrenicium9460]

Maybe it performs better in rivers

[@royonlyroy1654]

Thik hai

[@tehuhg]

Which app is animation

[@taposirusmagna5433]

They had to take away the Bulbous Bow because the deck officers today are so bad at math, reading, writing and figuring out GM that they have a computer do it now. Bulbous Bow helps the over all stability of the vessel to counter the effects of : heave, pitch, roll, surge, sway and yaw.

[@bobbyjoe1111]

" heave, pitch, roll, surge, sway and yaw." You got anymore gibberish you want to make up?

[@Savvas.95]

You are coming straight from NASA

[@NetcommyNetcommy]

Dear all advise me storage water super water tanker.need support others country in on needed water

[@chaz353535]

And look how much you can save on seamens wages

[@mixperience8841]

They should make a jarhe viking size, lol that would be to big

[@spenner3529]

“green tanker”

[@egiziobosio532]

i don' t like ships very big are dangerous
