L.O.M.A.C.(Littoral Operation Multipurpose Auxiliary Craft)

Casey Connor, John Sebastian,Austin Graham, and Scott Naro-Norman

Advisor – Dr. Zborowski Graduate Assistant – Mark Cencer

Purpose

? The purpose of Team LOMAC is to design a double chine monohull vessel to operate in the littoral zone. ? The littoral zone is the area close to the shoreline

characterized by breaking waves.

? The monohull will then be experimentally tested and compared to the catamaran design.

History

? There were 2 Types of Hulls that were chosen:? V-Bottom Catamaran ? Savitsky Double Chine Monohull

? The catamaran was built last year and is going to be compared to the current monohull.

Specifications

? Hull configuration: Double Chine Savitsky Monohull

? LBP: 1.524m (60.35 in.)? LOA: 1.626m (64.39 in.)? Draft: 0.07m (2.77 in.)? Beam: 0.26m (10.30 in.)? Displacement: 160.53N (36 lbs)? Deadrise at Transom: 15° on 1st chine,

45° on 2nd Chine

Requirements

? Vessel must have good sea-keeping properties, particularly in the littoral zone.

? Model must be able to achieve a speed of 13 knots.

? Vessel must have good course-keeping characteristics.

? Model must have good maneuverability and controllability.

How a Double Chine Savitsky Monohullworks. ? A chine is an edge on the hull that separates the

bottom from the sides.? Lower chine is flatter to create as much lift as

possible.? Upper chine is to push water away from the hull to

lower the resistance on the first chine.? Double chine Savitsky monohull is a design that

balances the lift force on the hull against the resistance forces on the hull.

? As the model increases to design speed the hull will lift and plane on the lower chine.

2) Glue station printouts to plywood and cut out.

3) Fasten plywood stations to the strong-back via angle iron.

Fairing Plug

1) Cut polystyrene foam to fit between the plywood stations.

2) Fair the foam until it is even with the plywood stations.

3) Paint the surface of the foam/plywood hull with latex paint.

4) Apply Duratec Sanding Primer on top of the painted surface.

Fiberglassing

6) Allow to cure.

Finishing

? Mix microballoons with epoxy until a mayonnaise consistency is achieved.

? Apply mix to areas that need to be built up.

? Sand smooth.

Testing

? Center of Gravities? Rolling Frequency? Displacement? Center of Buoyancy? Speed

Center of Gravities

? Longitudinal center of gravity was found using the Balance experiment.? It was found to be

22.625” from the aft perpendicular.

? Vertical center of gravity was found using the Inclining Experiment. ? It was found to be 2.74“

from the baseline.

Roll Frequency

? The roll frequency is relative to a vessels ability to right itself.

? Model oscillates until it comes to rest.

? Average time per roll is 0.6165 seconds.

? Constant rolling coefficient is 5.2744.

Displacement

? Archimedes Principle states that the dry weight of an object is equal to the weight of the water which it displaces.

? Found by weighing model.? Hull displacement is 16.8 lbs.? Allows 19.2 lbs for instrumentation and

ballasting.

Center of Buoyancy

? Location of where the sum of all the buoyant forces act on the hull.

? Determined from the Hydrostatic Curves generated on GHS.

? Found to be 9.216” aft of amidships.

Speed

? Model velocity was determined by measuring the amount of time elapsed over a known distance.

? Model achieved 2.5 knots.? Model was designed to reach 13 knots.

Monohull vs. Catamaran

? Monohull? Center of gravity located

at 22.625” from aft and 2.74” from the baseline.

? Rolling coefficient is 5.2744.

? Displacement is 16.8 lbs.? Center of buoyancy

located at 9.216” aft from amidships.

? Experimental velocity of 2.5 knots.

? Catamaran? Center of gravity located

at 30.780” from aft and 6.81” from the baseline.

? Rolling coefficient is 0.2170.

? Displacement is 31.8 lbs.? Center of buoyancy

located at 11.610” aft of amidships.

? Experimental velocity of less than 2 knots.

Testing Analysis

? The monohull was lighter than the catamaran therefore it is easier to plane.

? With respect to hull resistance, the monohullis more efficient.

? The low rolling coefficient exhibited by the catamaran suggests greater stability in comparison to the monohull for littoral zone operation.

Conclusion

? A double chine Savitsky monohull was successfully designed, manufactured and fitted with propulsion.

? The vessel’s sea-keeping abilities and static stabilities were determined.

? Tests were compared between the monohulland the catamaran hulls.

Recommendations

? Increased propeller diameter.? Increase depth of propellers.? Improved driveshaft coupling.? Possible gearbox.? Increased freeboard.? Installation of an additional bulkhead.
