Computational Analysis of Air Lubrication System for Commercial Shipping and Impacts on Fuel Consumption
Our study presents the computational implementation of an air lubrication system on a commercial ship with 154,800 m<sup>3</sup> Liquified Natural Gas capacity. The air lubrication reduces the skin friction between the ship’s wetted area and sea water. We analyze the real operating condi...
