Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ships, in particular to a low-resistance turbine drive structure and a transport ship used in narrow waterways. Background Art
[0002] When a ship is sailing, since the hull moves in two fluid media, air and water, at the same time, it will be subject to the resistance of the two fluid media. There has been a lot of research on drag reduction technology for ships sailing in open waters, such as the drag reduction method of bulbous bow line optimization and the drag reduction method of the spherical head reverse jet. However, when a ship sails in a narrow channel, it is easy to produce shallow water effect caused by too shallow water or too deep draft of the hull and too high speed, and the bank effect caused by the hull being sucked towards the bank due to the limited width of the channel, which will cause a significant change in hydrodynamic performance. Narrow channels are limited by width and depth of water. During the hull's navigation, the water level in the front is higher, while the water level in the rear is lower, forming a piston effect. The fluidity of water in a narrow channel is an important factor affecting the speed of the hull in a narrow channel. Utility Model Content

[0024] In the preferred embodiment, the turbine blades 401 are spirally arranged on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 4, and a shaft 402 is provided at the center of the turbine blades 401, and the shaft 402 connects the turbine blades 401 into a whole.
