ABSTRACT This report applies transit mission criteria to a representative geet of 16 Naval ships. The Percent Time Operabilitiesfor each ship are presented and limiting motions determined. A sensitivity study of the motion limiting criteria was conducted to indicate the possible benefit of various motion control devices. Limited regression analysis was performed in an attempt to find a correlationbetween operabilityestimates and seakeeping rank factors. ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION This investigation was sponsored by the Chief of Naval Research, Office of Naval Technology, Code ONT21, under the 6.2 Surface Ship Technology Program (ND1A), Program Element 6212N, Northern Latitudes Project RH21S23, Task 3,Ship Motion Control. The work was performed at the David Taylor Research Center during FY1989 under work unit number 1-1506-920. INTRODUCTION: Throughout the ages, ships have been required to operate in adverse conditions including strong winds, precipitation, sub-freezing temperatures, and heavy seas. The most influential condition which affects seakeeping quality is the effect of ocean waves. When sea conditions worsen, the operational capability of a ship decreases due to excessive motions. Degradations can range from mild cases of motion sickness to severe restrictions on equipment operability. Manpower intensive evolutions such as Underway Replenishment (UNREP) are particularly sensitive to the effects of ship motions. In extreme cases, a ship's capability can be reduced to a point where survival becomes the primary task of the day. The seakeeping qualities of a ship can be conveniently predicted using modern striptheory motion programs, such as the Standard Ship Motion Program (SMP84) 1". Subsequent work by McCreight and Stahl' incorporate environmental data with strip theory motion predictions to calculate Percent Time Operability (PTO). PTO calculations depend heavily on the motion limiting criteria which specify the thresholds of unacceptable motion. PTC calculations are a seakeeping measure of merit, allowing comparison of different ships at actual geographic locations for a given mission.
, 1
Representative ships from many different naval classes were chosen for the purposes of this study. PTOs for the transit mission at the GIUK gap and a representative North Atlantic ocean point were calculated using the Seakeeping Evaluation Program (SEP) 4 . A sensitivity study of the transit mission ship motion criteria was conducted to determine the relative contribution of each motion limit to total operability. Regression analysis was performed to determine whether or not a correlation exists between transit mission PTO estimates and the seakeeping rank factors as developed by Bales' and McCreight 6 . BACKGROUND The percent time operabilities (PTOs) estimates for different navy ships can be made using the Seakeeping Evaluation Program (SEP). PTOs are calculated utilizing the transfer functions of the ship of interest to predict motion responses as a function of speed, heading, and the probability of occurrence of significant wave height and modal period combinations. Each ship response is compared to the limiting criteria in each of the seasonal wave spectra which might be encountered in the geographic location of interest. The probabilities of occurrence of the spectra for which none of the motion limits are exceeded are summed to calculate the PTO. The probability of failure is calculated by summing the probabilities of occurrence for each failing wave height-modal period combination. The criteria sets used to calculate PTOs, consist of motion limits thought to be important to a particular mission, i.e., a response which if exceeded could cause the mission to fail. Typical responses chosen as criteria are: roll, pitch. vertical and lateral acceleration, slamming. deck wetness, and propeller racing. The failure limits of the criteria sets are determined by habitability, operability, and survivability. Habitability is related to the comfort and well-being of a ship's crewinenhers. :\II example of a habitability limit is an 8 significant single amplitude roll limit which is believed to keep crew efficiency above 80% 8 , as shown in Fig. 1. Operability generally involves an interaction between the crew and one or more ship systems. Operability limits are determined by both ship systems capability in rough seas and by the ability of ship's force to operate and maintain the system(s).
Survivability refers to a ship's ability to remain intact in heavy seas. Survivability limits are usua!ly eclipsed by habitability and operability limits which are almost always more conservative. The accuracy and validity of the PTOs are based on the accuracy of the transfer functions, the motion criteria sets, and the environmental data used in the evaluation. The values for percent time of operability are best used for relative comparisons between hull designs rather than absolute values of operability. Furthermore, the PTOs represent statistical values and should be treated accordingly. This means a PTO of 80%, represents 80% operability during a 20 year period. It does not mean that the ship can operate during any 4 days out of a 5 day period. ASSESSMENT DETAILS To facilitate an assessment of seakeeping performance, two northern latitude points were selected for winter season operability comparisons. The first location is the GIUK gap at 61*N; 15'W. The second location is in the North Atlantic Ocean at 56N; 270 W. Both geographic points represent typical northern latitude regions which experience heavy seas during the winter season. Operability comparisons are displayed in Tables 1 through 3. The performance figures listed represent values for the winter season based on environmental data supplied by the Spectral Ocean Wave Model (SOWM) data base. The SOW\M data base contains archived wind data used by the Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center (FNOC) to hindcast wave fields for approximately 1500 locations (grid points) throughout the northern hemisphere. Two severe weather locations were selected to allow subtle differences in hull design to be reflected in differing Percent Time of Operability (PTO) calculations. One must not become greatly concerned
about the selection of the grid points. The selection of a geographic point is irrelevant for determining general trends of ship motion criteria on operability values, because the same criteria which limit operability at one location will limit operations at other grid points, just to a different degree. TRANSIT MISSION CRITERIA SET The transit mission is defined as simply traversing from point A to point B. without performing any other missions. This implies the limits should be based on crew habitabilitv. hull structure, and propulsion machinery. The habitability criteria are taken
3
to be roll, pitch, absolute vertical and lateral acceleration at the bridge. Hull structure considerations are accounted for with slamming and deck wetness limits. A propeller racing limit reflects propulsion machinery performance. These limits are suitable for making comparisons, but for use as true operational limits they remain to be validated, especially the habitability criteria. The transit mission criteria is as follows: CRITERION Roll
Pitch
Absolute Vertical Accel Absolute Lateral Accel Wetnesses at station 0 Slams at station 3 Propeller racing
fThe accelerations are calculated at the bridge. Often the acceleration and propeller racing limits are neglected as unimportant because they rarely limit operability if at all and are position dependent. Furthermore. absolute lateral accelera'ions do not truly reflect the "transverse" accelerations that affect habitability, i.e. ship referenced accelerations. As a result of this study, general guidelines for when these limits cannot be neglected were developed. Generally. vertical and lateral acceleration limits are included as part of the seakeeping criteria if the T, is less than 15 seconds and/or the displacement is less than 10,000 LT. If the ship has a draft less than 20 feet (6.1 meters), propeller racing should be included as a criterion. TRANSIT MISSION RESULTS
Roll and pitch arc the primary limiting motions in terms of operability for conventional monohulls. This may be because other limits. especially accelerations. are not accurate. Most of the ships examined, regardless of displacement, were limited a larger percent of the time by roll than by pitch. This is especially true in the LSTI 179 where bilge keels are absent due to unique mission requirements. Roll and pitch become equally important as the ships get, shorter in length. especially as L/B is reduced. The only exception was the A0177. The A0177 is predicted to be limited a smaller amomt of time due to larger displacement, a fuller midbody, and larger bilge keels in
comparison to most other Navy ships. This reaffirms the idea that efforts devoted toward the reduction of roll motion will yield the the biggest improvement in seakeeping performance for conventional monohulls. This can be done by any number of means. i.e. bi!ge keels, antiroll fins, antiroll tanks, rudder roll stabilization, and hull form optirnization. The benefit of roll motion reduction in terms of improvements in operability can be easily seen using the FFG7 as an example. Without active antiroll fins, the winter North Atlantic PTO is 45. The presence of active control fins raises the PTO to 58, improving transit capability estimates by 13 percentage points. Improving the pitch -haracteristics is more difficult than roll, because the pitch forces are much larger. Pitch reduction is usually accomplished with antipitch fins or increasing the length. Unfortunately, antipitch fins have problems with induced vibration and re-entry slamming. Small ships can gain the benefits of antipitch fins and large ships can be designed to reduce pitch by ensuring the ship I as sufficient length at the waterline. Other seakeeping factors used in transiL operability calculations included slamming, ueck wetness, accelerations, and propeller racing. These factors limited operations to a lesser extent than roll or pitch. The percent time limited by slamming was very small. Slamming was a limiting criterion for small to medium sized ships at high speeds. The larger ships were unaffected. Small shipi, and oddly the BB62. had deck wetnoss as a limiting ciiterion. Deck wetness limited operations near the samv speed-heading combinations which were associated with s!amm*ng limits. One might expect deck wetness on a small ship. The BB62 results are due to inadequate freeboard. Typical Navy ships have values of FBD/L between 5% and 8/. This value for the 13B62 is approximately 47, indicating inadequate freeboard. Freeboard ,1lculations utilizing the methods of Walden and Grundman9 support this hypothesis. The vertical and lateral arceleration values are dependent upon the location of
interest on the ship. It is obvious that the higher and further a point location i.from the 'enter of gravity (CG). tie larger the accelerations. Vertical acceleration is a limiting 'ri erion for high speed operations in head to beam seas. Lateral acceleration limits are exceeded in near beam seas conditions. Vertical and lateral accelerations seldom I;-it operations: ust ally less than 1% of th time.
perfo'med
Propeller racing was a limiting criterion more often than expected. It tended to be
a limiting factor for low T,. generally hig]" speeds in following seas. 5
SENSITIVITY STUDY
A transit mission sensitivity study was perform,-d to determine if changes in motion criteria would indicate substantial improvements in operability. By examining the impact of each motion limit on 0e total PTO calculation, it becomes possible to determine where motion control efforts could be best directed to yield the largest improvements in total operabiity. Seven hull forms from the representative feet ,ere chosen: FFG7 with active antiroll fins, TAGOSl3. DD963, CGN38, CV41, LSD41, and A0177. These ships represent a variety of Navy monohulls in terms of size and mission Winter PTO
calculations were made at a geographic location in the GIUK gap in longcrested seas. Longcrested seas were favored over shortcrested seas in the operability comparisons becauoperability trends would be easier to identify in the longcrested PTOs. The
spreading of wave energy in shortcrested seas causes t _-ship response to be "averaged" over heading. Therefore, minor motion improvements revealed in longcrested PTO
calculations might disappear in the shortcrested case. The sensitivity of the PTOs to the main limiting criteria, roll, pitch, slamming, deck wetness, and propeller emergence, was examined. This study was conducted by individually relaxing one motion limit by 25% while maintaining the original values for the other motion limits. For example, to study roll sensitivity, the roll limit was increased from S to 100 , and the other limits kept the same forming a roll sensitivity criteria set. The percent time limitcd by individual criteria wa calculated along with the total PTO for each of the sensitivity criteria sets. These results were compared vith the original transit mission results for the seven hull forms in Tables 4 and 5. When a substantial improvenivut was found in PTO., it was indicative that otl-er mot ion criteria were not large factors in limiting operability. During these instances. the threshold for one ship motion was exceeded well before the other motion limits. At each speed-heading combination. the limiting wave heigh lines for each ship motion
criterion were not ciose to one another, as illus' rated in Fig. 2. In some cases. howevcr. a relaxation of one criterion caused little change in total PTO because of a-n increase in percent tiie limited by other criteria. This usually occurred when the limit ing wave lieiglit lins for the indiviual motions were "ound to be close together. see Fig. 3.
Limiliting wave wights for individual criterion are usually close together when the
crterioni are r,,lated. e.g.. pitch. slamming. and deck wet n,s. or roll and lateral accel-
eration; or when the limiting criterion switch from one to another. The largest gains in total operability can be obtained by making improvements in motion reduction involving the most restrictive limiting criterion. From the seven ships considered, the reduction of roll motion would result in the greatest improvement in PTO for four of them, DD963, CGN38, CV41, and LSD41. The reduction of roll (simulated by relaxing the roll limit) leads to a slight increase in the percent time the ship is limited by pitch, but results in an overall increase in PTO because the pitch limitation occurs at a higher significant wave height. The pitch limitation increases along the boundary between being pitch or roll limited. The average increase was 4.9% for the four ships. The relaxation of the pitch limit also provided a large increase in overall PTO. especiallv for the TAGOS13, AG 177, and FFG7 with active antiroll fins. These ships derive greater benefits from pitch relaxation for different reasons. The TAGOS13 is a short ship with poor pitch performance. Any improvement in the ship motion limits is extremely beneficial. The AG177 and the fin stabilized FFG7 have already achieved most of the useful roll improvement. Therefore, pitch motion reduction is the next logical place to make operability gains. When the pitch limit is relaxed. the many associated motions become limiting criteria. This is different from improving the roll limit where typically just the percent time limited due to pitch increases. With pitch relaxation. the percent time limited by roll. slamming, deck wetness, vertical acceleration. and propeller racing may increase with an improvement in total operability. Vertical accelerat ion and propeller racing are not limiting criteria when the pitch limit is relaxed. if they were not identified as problems in the original transit mission operability estinates. Propeller racing is a limiting criterion at higher speeds in following seas. The
a, erage PTO increase of the three ships due to pitch relaxation was apl)roxiatll v- ;(.
The lin its caused by slamming, deck wetness, accelerations, and propeller raciIu appeared to have a very minor impact on total operability. Relaxing their lliimit did
not lend to increase PTO significantly. Lateral acceleration was a limiting criterion at such large wave heights that the percent time limited by this motion appeared to be negligible.
REGRESSION The early work of Bales5 , as well as the follow-on works of Walden' and McCreight'. to estimate seakeeping performance based on a relatively simple equation with variables typically available in the early design stage were examined. After accumulating much data for the representative ships, an effort was made to determine whether or not a correlation could be found between the existing seakeeping ranking methods and the transit mission PTOs. The PTOs were compared for the open ocean North Atlantic location during the winter season in longcrested seas. All speed-heading combinations were weighted equally. The seakeeping ranking methods considered were the Bales, k: Walden, Re: and McCreight, R, ranks. The seakeeping ranks are calculated by averaging the RMS response of eight, (8) ship motion related quantities for longcrested head seas. The 8 quantities were calculated for 5 speeds and 5 modal periods. The Bales regression equation is only valid for destroyer-type hulls having a displacement of 4300 tonnes. while the Walden equation is valid for displacements from 3000 to 9000 tonnes. The McCreight equation is valid for all displacements. The seakeeping rank is to be "a robust, criteria-free index, independent of specific details and operational areas. "'9 There are many differences between these seakeeping ranking methods and the PTOs: the PTOs consider all headings, use motion limiting criteria, and environmental data from specific geographic locations. The seakeeping rank factors were derived from head seas calculations. However, it is exactly because of these differences that we wish to make a comparison. If a good correlation exists between the seakeeping ranks and t PTO calculations, then overall performance can be assessed early ill the design prolie cess wit hout worry that the highest ranked ship will have poor seakeeping performance at ot her speeds and headings. It then becomes possible to determine when a Iead seas
ranking method can be used to judge overall operability. The transit mission criteria is general enough not to overly penalize non-standard ships and represents half of the seakeeping related quantities used by the ranking methods. As to specific geographic locat ions. this distinction is relatively unimportant as the general trends should be simliar regardless of where the PTOs are calculated. Regression equations developed at oe poiIt will not ecessarilY be valid at another. The level of correlation may change
at different geographic locations, because of differing modal periods present which may
excite more roll response severely penalizing the head seas assumption. The correlation between 1Z and the PTOs was rather poor, i.e., a high ft did not kie,essarily indicate a high PTO, neither did a low f indicate a low PTO. This scatter is expected as only two of the ships are destroyers and most are much larger than 4300 tonnes. The scatter simply becomes a measure of ft's robustness, as shown in Fig. 4. The extension of Rk to displacements other than 4300 tonnes was done by Walden 1". The extended factor, Re, shows a much better correlation with the PTOs, see Fig. 5. This simple change shows the importance of choosing pertinent regression parameters and underscores the serious limitation of the displacement restriction on Kt. As illustrated in Fig. 6, the McCreight seakeeping rank, I 1 , has a strong correlation with PTO, .i.e., generally a large R1 indicates a large PTO. This trend is apparent even though none of the ships compared were completely within all the parameter ranges. Therefore, the McCreight seakeeping rank can be considered very robust. A regression of the PTOs using the same variables as Bales and McCreight, except for the cut up ratio, was done. This is in effect finding new coefficients, based on the PTOs, for the t and R1 equations. The extended factor, Re, variables were not regressed with the PTOs, but should follow the same trends as the McCreight factor, R1 . As illustrated in Fig. 7, the regressed PTOs were plotted on the same graph as the SEP calculated PTOs. This indicates for which ships those variables and hence R and R1 . provide a good prediction of the PTOs. Ships with either large roll motion. small displacements, or very large displacements showed the largest differences. The Bales seakeeping rank, R, is a valid indicator of performance if the ship's displacement is close to 4300 tonnes and has small roll motion. The McCreight seakeeping rank. R1 , shows some difference probably due to only using head seas response. As with the Bales variables, an equation for PTO using the McCreight variables was found. The PTOs from this equation are closer to the SEP calculated PTOs. than the Bales PTOs. This reinforces tile statement by Walden and Grundman 9 that the Bales variables may not be the best ones. As to regression results, there seems to be no universal trend as whether the regressed PTOs are larger and smaller than the SEP calculated PTOs. The McCreight seakeeping rank, R1 , seems less constrained by tile head seas assumption than Bales.
CONCLUSIONS The transit mission criteria set was applied to 16 Navy ships, representative of the fleet. Examination of the PTOs and time limited by each criterion identify which ships are the best seakeepers and which criterion is most damaging to PTOs. Displacement plays a large role in seakeeping performance, the two smallest ships having the worst PTOs. Ships with double the displacement have much better PTOs. The ships with the highest PTOs had the largest displacements; however, to attain the high PTOs, the displacements are very large, and it becomes harder and harder to reap the benefits of size as size increases. For example, if doubling the displacement reduced the motions by half, the increase in displacement would quickly become prohibitive and the reduction in motions negligible. Length, beam. draft, and CB also showed good correlation with the PTOs. Of the eight criteria thought to limit the transit mission, the two that reduced the PTO the most were roll and pitch. The reduction of roll, more than any other motion would improve seakeeping the most. Regression analysis showed the relationship between the seakeeping ranking factors and criteria, and the PTOs. The extended Bales and McCreight seakeeping factors showed good correlation with PTOs; the original Bales seakeeping factor did not. Both ft and R, can be used to predict total seakeeping performance even though they are derived strictly from head seas performance ranking. Furthermore, Rt and R1 appeared to be good indicators of seakeeping performance for conventional monohulls outside the range of regression parameters used in the initial studies.
