[0002] With the problems of energy shortage, environmental pollution, greenhouse effect and so on in recent years, green ship design has gradually attracted the attention of relevant personnel in the industry as a new trend. For a long time, the shipping industry has been an important industry that consumes energy, and it has also caused a series of environmental problems such as the greenhouse effect. At present, new design ships with excessive EEDI index will not be able to pass the review of classification societies or IMO, and operating ships with excessive EEDI index may be forced to scrap or unable to enter the international shipping market. Therefore, energy conservation and emission reduction of ships has become an issue that needs to be paid great attention. The effect of ship hydrodynamic energy-saving devices is significant and has an important influence on the research of ship energy-saving technology. Among them, setting a corresponding fluid intervention device at the propeller to increase the propeller efficiency is a new direction in the research of ship energy-saving technology.

[0003] For example, a Chinese patent with application number 201711253562.7 and titled "A Ship-use Guide Plate Type Annular Duct" discloses a ship hydrodynamic energy-saving device installed above and in front of the water flow outlet of the stern shaft of the hull, including a port side guide pipe, a starboard side guide pipe, a port side guide plate, a starboard side guide plate and an intermediate reinforcement structure; the port and starboard side guide pipes are installed on both sides of the stern of the hull above and in front of the water flow outlet of the stern shaft of the ship, the lower end of the guide pipe is directly connected to the hull, and the upper end is connected to the guide plate and the intermediate reinforcement structure, and the guide plate and the intermediate reinforcement structure are connected to the hull.

[0004] In order to further enhance propeller thrust by improving the wake field of the ship, our company has designed a water flow pressurization guide device. During the installation, it was found that since most components are welded, it is sometimes difficult for the fins to be installed snugly at the stern of the hull when dealing with different types of ships. Therefore, the flow equalization guide tube connected to the fins can be improved. Utility Model Content
