Introduction

SEAWAY is a frequency domain ship motions PC program, based on the strip theory,
to calculate the wave-induced loads and motions with six degrees of freedom of mono-
hull ships and barges in seaway. When not accounting for interaction e¤ects between
the two individual ships, also these calculations can be carried out for twin-hull ships,
such as semi-submersibles or catamarans. The program is suitable for deep and shallow
water. The User Manual is given by [Journée, 2001b] and the underlying theory has been
described by [Journée, 2001a].
Program SEAWAY requires two separate input data …les: a ship-bound ”hull form data
…le” and a variable ”input data …le”.
The o¤sets of the cross sections of the fully loaded ship are input and have to be measured
manually or digitized and then stored in a hull form data …le. Two series of scalable hull
forms (in total 123 ships) are given in the User Manual. Also, the hull form data …le can
be output of the PIAS program of SARC; see [Koelman, 1997]. At any actual loading
of the ship, new o¤sets will be calculated by the program from these data by the actual
amidships draught and trim, given in the variable input data …le. A linear transformation
of the hull form can be carried out too, by an input of three independent scale factors.
A control program, named SEAWAY-H, displays the body plan of the ship, as stored in
the hull form data …le, on the screen. Corrections can be carried out with this control
program too.
A user’s friendly input-editor, named SEAWAY-E, creates the input data …le. Almost
this editor takes the place of the User Manual.
This report shows results of veri…cations and validations of program SEAWAY with com-
puted data obtained with the 3-D di¤raction program DELFRAC and with experimental
data of various ship models.
The hydromechanic coe¢cients in SEAWAY have been de…ned here by the modi…ed strip
theory method (jK T Hj = 2). The wave load computations by SEAWAY have been carried
out by the classical relative motion approach (KT H = +2) as well as by a simply…ed
di¤raction method (KT H = ¡2).
Generally, Tasai’s potential theory with 10-parameter conformal mapping has been used
to determine the 2-D potential coe¢cients at deep water. However, for cross sections with

Basic Comparisons

ter
2.1.1 Potential Coe¢cients of 2-D Cylinders
The two-dimensional hydrodynamic coe¢cients and wave loads have been veri…ed with
the classic experimental results of [Vugts, 1970], who has tested horizontal cylinders in
beam waves in the mid-sixties at the Delft University of Technology. These cylinders have
constant cross sections, shaped as given below.

Cylinders as Tested by Vugts

The water depth in the towing tank during the experiments was about h = 2:00 meter.
The computed 2-D sway, heave and roll coe¢cients and wave loads by SEAWAY and
those measured by Vugts are given in the next …gures. They are made dimensionless by:

In all cases, good agreements between SEAWAY and the experiments have been found.
The di¤erences found between the potential and the experimental data can be explained
by experimental inaccuracies and viscous e¤ects.
2.1. COMPARISON WITH 2-D EXPERIMENTS AT DEEP WATER 5

Circular Cross Section


The centre of gravity, G, is situated in the waterline: OG = 0. Roll coe¢cients and wave
loads are de…ned with respect to O or G.
Of course, the Lewis conformal mapping method provides a perfect mapping of this cross
section, thus the potential coe¢cients have been calculated here by Lewis conformal map-
ping and Tasai’s potential theory.
The potential mass and damping coe¢cients for sway, a 22 and b22, and for heave, a33 and
b33, are fairly well predicted. The potential mass and damping coe¢cients for roll, a 44
and b44, are zero.
It is obvious that also the mass and damping coupling coe¢cients, a42 and b42 determined
during the sway oscillations and a24 and b24 determined during the roll oscillations, should
be zero too. The small measured values are caused by viscous e¤ects and inaccuracies
during the experiments.
The measured wave forces for sway and heave agree well with the experimental data. The
roll moments are zero.

2.1. COMPARISON WITH 2-D EXPERIMENTS AT DEEP WATER 13

Triangular Cross Section


The centre of gravity, G, is situated in the waterline: OG=d = 0. Roll coe¢cients and
wave loads are de…ned with respect to O or G.
The potential coe¢cients have been calculated here by Frank’s pulsating source theory.
The potential mass and damping coe¢cients for sway, a 22 and b22, and for heave, a33 and
b33, are fairly well predicted. The potential mass and damping coe¢cients for roll, a 44
and b44, are small.
The mass and damping coupling coe¢cients, a42 and b42 determined during the sway
oscillations and a24 and b24 determined during the roll oscillations, are fairly well predicted
too.
The measured wave forces for sway and heave and the roll moments agree well with the
experimental data.

2.2. COMPARISON WITH 3-D COMPUTATIONS 15

2.2 Comparison with 3-D Computations


The 3-D panel di¤raction program DELFRAC of J.A. Pinkster (Delft University of Tech-
nology), see [Dimitrieva, 1994],was basis for a veri…cation and validation study of the
wave loads calculated by SEAWAY. The calculated data, given in the following …gures,
were labelled with DELFRAC.
Two strip theory methods of SEAWAY have been used here:

² the classical relative motion method with KTH > 0, labelled in the …gures with
SEAWAY +

² the di¤raction method with KTH < 0, labelled in the …gures with SEAWAY -

This has been done here for for 2-D wave loads on cross-sections of rectangular barges
and for 3-D (integrated 2-D) wave loads on a crude oil carrier. All calculations have been
carried out for sea water with ½ = 1:025 ton/m3.
16 CHAPTER 2. BASIC COMPARISONS

2.2.1 2-D Wave Loads on Cross-Sections of Barges


The SEAWAY wave loads of three di¤erent (Vugts-type) barges - two with a rectangular
cross section and one with a triangular cross section - with the following dimensions have
been compared with DELFRAC output data. All barges have been tested for two di¤erent
water depths: h=d = 1 and h=d = 1:2. The main particulars of these barges are given in
the next table.

2 B=d = 8:00 300.00 40.00 5.00 5.00 0 0, 30, 60, 90 1
2 B=d = 8:00 300.00 40.00 5.00 5.00 0 0, 30, 60, 90 1.2
O B=d = 1:15 300.00 34.64 30.00 30.00 0 0, 30, 60, 90 1
O B=d = 1:15 300.00 34.64 30.00 30.00 0 0, 30, 60, 90 1.2

Frank’s pulsating source method (KTH = 11 ) has been used for the in…nite water depth
case, h=d = 1, and fair to good agreements between SEAWAY and DELFRAC have been
found.

Keil’s method (KTH = 12 ) with Lewis conformal mapping have been used for the …nite
water depth case, h=d = 1:2. The RM S value of di¤erences between the Lewis cross
section and the actual cross section is about 2.3 % of the draught for B=d = 2 but about
10.6 % of the draught for B=d = 8. This explains partly the sometimes poor agreement
between SEAWAY and DELFRAC for the rectangular cross section with B=d = 8 at this
water depth, especially in beam waves, ¹ = 900. Fair to good agreements have been found
for B=d = 2.

3-D Presentation of a Body Plan of Crude Oil Carrier ”Macoma”


30 CHAPTER 2. BASIC COMPARISONS

The 2-D potential coe¢cients of cross sections 1, 19 and 20 have been obtained by Frank’s
pulsating source method. For the other cross sections, Tasai’s theory with a 10-parameter
conformal mapping has been used.
The computed sway, heave and roll wave load data in deep water by DELFRAC and
SEAWAY are given in the next …gures at zero forward ship speed and a range of wave
directions.
In all cases, fair to good agreements between the SEAWAY and DELFRAC results have
been found.

36 CHAPTER 3. RESPONSES OF TODD-60 SERIES MODELS

3.1 Added Resistance


During the added resistance tests, the (very small) models were free in heaving and
pitching only. The experimental data have been compared here with SEAWAY results,
using both the radiated energy method of Gerritsma and Beukelman and the integrated
pressure method of Boese.
The 2-D potential coe¢cients of cross sections with too low an area coe¢cient have been
obtained by Frank’s pulsating source method. For all other cross sections, Tasai’s theory
with 10-parameter conformal mapping has been used.
The results are given in the following …gures; they are made dimensionless by:
s
0 Lwl 0 Raw
!e = !e ¢ and Raw = 2 2
g ½g³ a B =Lwl

in which:

!e = frequency of encounter
Raw = mean added resistance
½ = density of water
g = acceleration of gravity
³a = regular wave amplitude
B = breadth at waterline, amidships
Lwl = length of waterline

The …gures show the di¤erences between the radiated energy method of Gerritsma and
Beukelman and the integrated pressure method of Boese, as they generally appear. Com-
pared with the method of Gerritsma and Beukelman, the method of Boese provides higher
peak values and lower (almost zero) values at higher frequencies.
For these Todd-60 models, it seems that the method of Gerritsma and Beukelman has
a preference for ships with a low blockcoe¢cients and that the method of Boese has a
preference for ships with a high blockcoe¢cient. When using wave spectra, the underpre-
diction at higher frequencies here is often of less importance because of the low amount
of wave energy in this region.
However, due to the small size of the models, no high accuracy of these model tests will
be expected. The model length was just over 1.50 meter only.

44 CHAPTER 4. RESPONSES OF FAST CARGO SHIP ”S.A. VAN DER STEL”

The experimental data, obtained at the Delft University of Technology with a 1:50 scale
model of this ship, have been taken from the …gures in the reports of [Gerritsma and Beukelman, 19
[Journée, 1976b] and [Journée, 1976a]. These data have been compared here with SEA-
WAY results.
The 2-D potential coe¢cients of cross sections 1, 2, 19 and 20 have been obtained by
Frank’s pulsating source method. For all other cross sections, Tasai’s theory with 10-
parameter conformal mapping has been used.
p
The results are given in the following …gures based on ¸=Lpp or Lpp =¸ are made dimen-
sionless by:

wave elevation ³ = ³ a cos (!e t ¡ kxb cos ¹)


za
heave motion z = za cos (! et + " z³ ) with: RAO =
³a
µ
pitch motion µ = µ a cos (!e t + "µ³ ) with: RAO = a
k³ a
zxa
vertical absolute motion zx = zxa cos (!e t + "zx³ ) with: RAO =
³a
sa
vertical relative motion s = sa cos (! e t + " s³ ) with: RAO =
³a
0 Raw
mean added resistance Raw = 2 2
½g³ aB =Lpp

in which:

¤a = wave or motion amplitude


!e = frequency of encounter
t = time
" ¤¤ = motion phase lag with respect to wave elevation in G
sa = vertical relative motion amplitude
k = wave number
xb = ship-bound longitudinal axis with origin in G
¹ = wave direction
¸ = wave length
Raw = mean added resistance
½ = density of water
g = acceleration of gravity
B = amidships breadth at waterline
Lpp = length between perpendiculars
G = centre of gravity

Generally, good agreements between the SEAWAY results and the experimental values
have been found.
The vertical relative motion has been calculated by both, excluding (absolute motions
and undisturbed wave only) and including a dynamic swell up caused by the oscillating
vessel. The experiments show here that accounting for the dynamic swell up improves the
computed results of relative motions.

5.1 Added Resistance


[Nakamura, 1976] has carried out added resistance tests in regular head waves with a
1:38.89 model (Lpp = 4:50 m) of the containership design ”S-175”.
[Fujii and Takahashi, 1975] have used a 1:50 model (Lpp = 3:50 m) of this ship, when
measuring the added resistance in regular oblique waves.
The test conditions were:

F n = 0:15 F n = 0:20 F n = 0:25 F n = 0:30


¹ = 180 0
x x x x (Nakamura)
¹ = 1500 x x (Fujii)
¹ = 1200 x x (Fujii)

The experimental data presented here have been taken from the …gures 2 and 8 in the
report of [Nakamura, 1976]. These data have been compared with SEAWAY results, using
both the radiated energy method of Gerritsma and Beukelman and the integrated pressure
method of Boese.
The 2-D potential coe¢cients of the cross sections 1, 3, 19, 19.5 and 20 have been obtained
by Frank’s pulsating source method. For all other cross sections, Tasai’s theory with 10-
parameter conformal mapping has been used.
The measured and calculated non-dimensional added resistance data as a function of the
ship length / wave length ratio, Lpp =¸ are given in the next …gures.

The 2-D potential coe¢cients of the cross sections 3 and after 3 and 19 and before 19 have
been obtained by Frank’s pulsating source method. For all other cross sections, Tasai’s
theory with 10-parameter conformal mapping has been used.
The following weight distribution has been used during the calculations:

Mass Distribution of ”Nedlloyd Dejima” as Used During Calculations

This - somewhat strange - …ctive distribution ful…ls the requirements for both, each seg-
ment of about 1=4Lpp length as well as for the whole ship, with respect to the mass, the
longitudinal position of the centre of gravity, G, and the radius of gyration, kyy .

The following …gures with absolute ship motions show fair to good agreements between
the computed data of SEAWAY and the experimental data.

6.5. BENDING AND TORSIONAL MOMENTS 71

6.5 Bending and Torsional Moments


Model experiments on bending and torsional moments have been carried out by [Tan, 1972]
with a 1:55 model of this vessel. The experimental data were taken from his report and
they have been compared here with data computed by SEAWAY.
The internal loads at stations 5, 10 and 15 are given here for a ship speed of 24.5 knots
and three regular wave directions: stern-quartering waves from star board (¹ = 450), head
waves (¹ = 1800) and bow-quartering waves from port side (¹ = 2250 ).
The shear forces (Fy and F z ), the bending moments (My and Mz ) and the torsional
moments (Mx) in regular waves are given on base of the wave length to ship length ratio
(¸=Lpp ) and are made dimensionless by:

0 Fy;z 0 M x;y;z
Fy;z = and Mx;y;z =
½g³ aBLpp ½g³ aBL2pp

To obtain a similar sign convention as used by [Tan, 1972] for his experimental data, a
phase shift ¼ has been added here to the by SEAWAY computed phase lags of Fz , Mx
and Mz .
The following …gures show the dimensionless sheer force and bending and torsional mo-
ment amplitudes and their phase lags with respect to the wave elevation at the centre of
gravity, G, for the three wave directions.
There is a fair agreement for the vertical loads Fz and My , but the torsional loads Mx
and the lateral loads Fy and Mz do not agree always well.

7.1 Heave and Pitch Motions


The experimental data, obtained with a 1:25 scale model of this ship, have been taken from
the …gures in the student’s thesis of [Doorn, 1981]. The experiments have been carried
out at 5 water depths: h=d = 1.20, 1.38, 1.54, 1.69 and 7.69. According to [Doorn, 1981],
the pitch results at lower frequencies have been in‡uenced somewhat by tank wall e¤ects.
These experimental data have been compared here with computed data by SEAWAY.
The results of the model tests and the computations are given in the following …gures
based on the frequency of encounter !e during the tests. The transfer functions are given
by heave amplitude divided by wave amplitude, ³ a , and pitch amplitude divided by wave
slope amplitude, k³ a .
The …gures show fair to good agreements between SEAWAY and the restricted water
experiments.

vessel for six degrees of freedom were measured at zero forward speed in regular beam,
bow quartering and head waves. These measured data have been compared here with
computed data by SEAWAY.
In contraction with all other ship motion calculations in this report, the wave loads and
resulting motions of vessels with twin hull cross sections -such as this semi-submersible -
have still to be calculated with the classic strip theory approach; the strip theory para-
meter in the input data …le has to be set to: K T H = +1 or K T H = +2. An adoption
for di¤raction wave loads (K T H = ¡1 or KT H = ¡2) for twin hull sections will be
included in SEAWAY in the near future. All 2-D potential (deep water) coe¢cients have
been calculated here with Frank’s pulsating source method (K COF = +11).
The results are given in the following …gures based on a non-dimensional wave frequency
parameter:
s
0 r 1=3
! =!¢
g

in which r is the volume of displacement of the ship and g is the acceleration of gravity.
The transfer functions of the translations of G are given by translation amplitude divided
by wave amplitude, ³ a, and those of the rotation about G by rotation amplitude divided
by wave slope amplitude, k³ a .
The …gures show fair to good agreements between the results of the computer code SEA-
WAY and the experimental data.

Conclusions

The following conclusions may be drawn from this validation and veri…cation study of the
strip theory program SEAWAY:

² Absolute motions.
Generally, the predictions agree very well with experimental data. However, a vis-
cous damping for roll is required. Also, for ships at restricted water depths good
agreements have been found.

² Vertical relative motions.


The vertical relative motions are predicted fairly well. When accounting for the
dynamic swell up, good agreements will be found.

² Mean added resistance.


The added resistance at high frequencies will be underpredicted, but - generally -
this e¤ect is of less importance in irregular waves.
In head to beam waves, the added resistance will be predicted quite well by the
radiation method of Gerritsma and Beukelman. However, for ships with a large
blockcoe¢cient (Cb > 0:75), the integrated pressure method of Boese has sometimes
the preference.
In following waves, the integrated pressure method of Boese has to be used.
The reliability of the computed added resistance at restricted water depths has not
been investigated yet.

² The wave loads of vessels with twin hull cross sections - such as this semi-submersible
- have still to be calculated here with the classic strip theory approach; the strip
theory parameter in the input data …le has to be set to: KTH > 0.

Acknowledgments

The author wish to thank Jo Pinkster for his support when comparing the computational
results of DELFRAC and SEAWAY. Especially for the wave loads, these comparisons
were very fruitful.
Last but not least, the cooperation with Aad Versluis - who carried out all DELFRAC
computations (much more than presented here) - is very much acknowledged.
