1. A single screw vessel is fitted with a propeller 4.3 m diameter, which when running at 120
rev/min gives a ship speed of 16 knots.
If the real slip ratio is 33% and the apparent slip ratio is 8%, calculate the pitch, Taylor wake
fraction, pitch angle and slip angle.
2. The following information was obtained from the trials of a ship 120 m in length and 12,500
tonne displacement :-
Ship speed (knot) 14 15 16 17
Shaft power (kW) 2,550 2,850 3,270 3,880
(a) Draw on the same graph, curves of ‘Admiralty Coefficient’ and ‘shaft power’ to a base
of ‘speed/length ratio’ V/√L; and
(b) Estimate the shaft power required for a similar ship 160 m in length and 19,400 tonne
displacement when travelling at 17 knot.
3. A ship 165 m in length, 9.2 m breadth, floats in water of density 1,025 kg/m3. The ship’s
areas of immersed sections are defined by the following equidistant intervals commencing
from the after perpendicular (AP):
Station AP 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 FP
Areas of
immersed 0 110 192 247 270 275 275 261 220 124 0
sections (m2)
Calculate:
(a) the displacement; and
(b) the prismatic coefficient.

4. A barge of 165 m length, 23.2 m breadth and draught 9.2m has a displacement 24,300 tonne.
A compartment is later added to give a new displacement of 30,000 tonne. Calculate:
(a) the prismatic coefficient before conversion; and

(b) the prismatic coefficient after conversion.
Coefficient of mid-ship cross-section before conversion is 0.96.
5. A hold pillar supports a deck area of 45 m2. The deck supports cargo which stows at 0.5
tonne/m2 and the pillar has a hollow cross section with an inside diameter which is three
quarters the outside diameter.
Calculate the diameters of the pillar if the compressive stress in the material is not to exceed
320 MN/m2. A safety factor of 5 is to be added.
6. A ship of 2,780 tonne displacement floating at a draught of 4.27 m has the following
particulars:
KB = 2.5 m, KG = 6.5 m, BM = 5.65 m and TPC = 7.
Determine the change of metacentric height when a mass of 154 tonne, KG = 11 m is added
to the vessel, assuming that the vessel is “wall-sided” over the change of draughts.
7. A barge of length 22 m, breadth 6m and depth 2.5 m has a flat bottom with vertical sides and
ends. The shape in plan is of two semi-circular ends joined by straight parallel sides. The
barge comprises of a hold consisting of the rectangular section with the two semi-circular
portions as separate watertight compartments.
The barge floats at a draught of 1.4 m in water of density 1,025 kg/m3, the centre of gravity
of the barge and cargo being 1.5 m above the keel.

(a) Calculate the effective metacentric height after water of density 1,000 kg/m3 is added to
both end compartments to a depth of 2 m; and
(b) If part of the cargo of mass 10 tonne is moved from the centre of the barge through a
distance of 2 m to one side, calculate the angle of heel.
8. A box shaped barge 36 m long, 6 m wide floats at a draught of 1 m in water of density 1,025
kg/m3. The barge is divided into nine equal size watertight compartments by two transverse
and two longitudinal bulkheads.
If the initial metacentric height is 1.2 m, calculate:
(a) the final GM when the central compartment is bilged,

(b) the angle of heel if a mass of 5 tonne is then moved vertically up 3 m and transversely
2 m.
9. With reference to crude oil carriers:
(a) Explain the following terms:

(i) segregated ballast tanks (SBT);
(ii) clean ballast tanks (CBT); and
(iii) protective locations (PL),
(b) (i) Explain the crude oil washing (COW) system for cargo tank cleaning; and
(ii) State the advantages of crude oil washing.
