Although new energy and clean energy have great potential in the shipping field, fossil fuels are still the main source of power for global shipping. Improving the energy efficiency of fossil fuels is a key way to achieve the energy conservation and emission reduction goals of the global shipping industry. In the prior art, the transmission efficiency of each power of the ship's main engine remains basically unchanged, that is, the ratio of the power received by the propeller to the machine power is usually between 0.95 and 0.98, and the ratio of effective power to received power is the propeller efficiency, and this value is between 0.60 and 0.75. This means that most of the energy loss of the ship's main engine occurs in the propeller (see the attached figure for the power transmission from the ship's main engine to the propeller). Figure 1 ), the main shortcomings include: the propeller design fails to maximize the propulsion efficiency, resulting in energy waste; the main engine's rapid response capability is insufficient, affecting the ship's operational safety in emergency situations.

This embodiment is implemented based on the technical solution of the present invention, and provides a detailed implementation method and specific operation process, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0052] The present invention proposes an energy efficiency evaluation method for propulsion and maneuvering safety of ship main engine under wave conditions. By adopting the three-dimensional Rankine panel method, the hull surface and free surface are discretized into panels, and Rankine sources or dipoles are arranged on the panels to solve the potential flow field of the fluid, and the object surface boundary conditions, the diffraction velocity potential free surface boundary conditions and the radiation velocity potential free surface boundary conditions are comprehensively considered (two different linearization methods are shown in the attached figure). Figure 2 ), the motion amplitude is obtained according to the wave excitation force using the boundary element indirect method. The mathematical model of the ship's motion in waves can be decomposed into two parts: low-frequency (maneuvering) motion and high-frequency (wavekeeping) motion (see the attached schematic diagram of maneuvering and wavekeeping coupling Figure 3 ): Low-frequency motion is described by the MMG motion mathematical model that takes into account wave drift force / torque (to simulate the influence of waves) to calculate the ship's sway, pitch and bow motion. High-frequency motion is expressed by the three-dimensional Rankine panel method, including pitch, roll and heave motion. The results are used to solve the wave resistance of the ship using the near-field pressure integration method.
[0053] Substitute the desired wave resistance into the rapid prediction model to predict the demand for ship propulsion power in different sea conditions, and evaluate the energy efficiency response of the main engine power in irregular waves, so as to ensure that the main engine can provide sufficient power reserve while maintaining a stable propulsion power output when responding to sudden sea conditions. In addition, through systematic data analysis and real-time power management, the system can derive appropriate propulsion power and propeller load according to different sea conditions, so that the ship can maintain an efficient operating state in a complex environment while minimizing fuel consumption and emissions. The method of the present invention includes the following steps:

The current ship's heading and speed information is substituted into the ship's seakeeping module, and the ship's seakeeping module outputs the ship's heave motion ξ 3 、Rolling motion 4 and pitch motion ξ 5 And the wave resistance in the ship's surge, sway, roll and pitch directions Convert wave resistance into second-order wave force / moment X acting on the hull in the directions of surge, sway, roll and pitch W ,Y W ,N W ,K W , the second-order wave force / torque is substituted back into the MMG model to obtain the new current ship's heading (obtained by integrating the bow speed r) and speed information (u, v vector sum, ) and control propulsion performance, update the time, repeat S2 to obtain the second-order wave force / torque at multiple times;
[0057] S3, the second-order wave forces / torques at multiple moments are input into the rapid prediction model, and the rapid prediction model outputs the predicted ship motion and propulsion power requirements;
[0058] S4. Compare the predicted ship propulsion power demand with the real-time ship power value, and adjust the ship main engine based on the comparison result.
[0059] The working principle of the present invention is based on a ship resistance calculation model, which focuses on calculating the second-order forces of the ship in the waves, that is, nonlinear forces or effects. These forces are usually related to the interaction between waves and fluid dynamics and are the main factors of the resistance encountered by the ship during navigation.
[0060] Among them, the second-order force / torque theory solves:

[0064] The unit incident wave velocity potential is
[0065]
[0066] Here 0 is the unit incident wave frequency; χ is the wave angle, and the diffraction velocity potential free surface boundary condition: when the ship performs a small amplitude simple harmonic motion in still water, the radiation wave generated by the fluid around the ship acts on the hull structure. The radiation velocity potential under this action needs to satisfy the balance between the fluid acceleration caused by the wave and the fluid pressure gradient caused by gravity.
[0067]
[0068] Radiation velocity potential free surface boundary condition: refers to the conditions that the velocity potential needs to meet on the free water surface in the diffraction phenomenon generated when the wave encounters the hull during propagation.
[0069]
[0070] Substituting the boundary conditions:
[0071]
[0072] Use the boundary element indirect method: transform the well-defined problem of differential equations or partial differential equations into boundary integral equations, then obtain the numerical solution of the original problem by solving the boundary integral equations, and integrate the pressure to calculate the additional mass a ij 、Wave damping b ij , wave excitation force F i and motion response ξ j Calculation of

[0080] A W represents the waterplane area of the hull, z B Represents the vertical coordinate of the center of buoyancy.
[0081] The added mass matrix is The wave damping matrix and additional mass matrix are similar and will not be described here.
[0082] They correspond to the surge, sway and heave motions of the ship respectively.

[0084] Among them, φ I and φ d are the incident wave velocity potential and the disturbance velocity potential respectively; ζ I and d are the incident wave height and the disturbance wave height, respectively; is the position vector; represents the wave-induced linear displacement vector; Represents the angular displacement vector. Taking the S175 ship as an example, the calculation results of the second-order force and second-order moment (resistance) are shown in the attached Figure 7 .
[0085] The main feature of the MMG model used in the present invention is to decompose the fluid forces and moments acting on the ship into the fluid forces and moments acting on the bare hull, open water propeller and open water rudder according to the physical meaning, as well as the interference between them (the ship maneuvering turning trajectory under different working conditions is shown in the attached figure). Figure 8-9 ). This separated model handles the complex interactions between the ship, propeller, and rudder. Each hydrodynamic force has obvious physical meaning and is easy to express using the results obtained from a series of tests, as shown in the following formula:
[0086]
[0087] Where p is the rolling velocity and m is the mass of the ship. x and m y are the additional masses of the x-axis and y-axis respectively. xx and J zz are the additional moments of inertia about the x-axis and z-axis respectively. The subscripts H, R, and P represent the low-frequency hydrodynamic forces acting on the hull, rudder, and propeller respectively. Among them, the main engine model power is converted into the longitudinal force X P To express. W ,Y W ,N W ,K Wis the second-order force / moment acting on the hull.

[0091] Forces acting on the rudder:
[0092]
[0093] Propeller thrust:
[0094]
[0095] Since the minimum main engine propulsion power is mainly provided by the propeller thrust, this system mainly focuses on the propeller thrust research, so as to evaluate the matching degree between the minimum main engine power and wave resistance.
[0096] Finally, the present invention also takes into account the impact of propeller design on the main engine power response, fuel consumption, and the ship's maneuvering safety. By optimizing the propeller's parameters such as the number of blades, speed, diameter, pitch, and disk ratio, the ship's maneuvering safety and energy efficiency are improved, while fuel consumption and emissions are reduced.
[0097] The present invention aims to solve the deficiencies in the prior art in the safety of ship maneuvering in waves and the energy efficiency evaluation, especially in the propulsion efficiency of the main engine. The main technical problems existing in the background technology include:
[0098] 1. Low propulsion efficiency: Since the propeller design parameters (such as disc ratio, diameter, and pitch) are not optimized, the energy loss is large and the propulsion efficiency is low.
[0099] 2. Insufficient response capability: The main engine’s insufficient rapid response capability makes it difficult for the ship to quickly adjust power output when facing sudden sea conditions, affecting the safety of operation.
[0100] 3. Lack of comprehensive evaluation method: The existing technology lacks a rapid prediction method that comprehensively considers the ship's maneuverability and seakeeping, especially the calculation model of ship resistance in the frequency domain is not accurate enough.

This method develops a ship resistance (second-order force / torque) calculation model in the frequency domain based on the three-dimensional Rankine panel method and the near-field pressure integration method.
[0105] 4. Database and real-time call: The ship resistance is calculated in advance according to the parameter changes caused by ship maneuvering and saved in the database. The ship calls the second-order force / torque in real time according to the maneuvering motion state to replace the impact of waves on the ship.
[0106] 5. Establish a unified model: Establish a unified model of ship maneuvering and seakeeping, which can quickly predict the ship maneuvering movement under regular waves and irregular waves.
