FreeCAD-Ship s60 tutorial/de

Einleitung
In diesem Tutorial werden wir mit einem Serie 60 Schiff er Universität von Iowa arbeiten. Das Tutorial soll zeigen, wie man mit einem symmetrischen Einrumpfschiff arbeiten kann, aber auch Mehrrumpf- oder nicht-symmetrische Schiffe können mit dem gleichen Verfahren ausgeführt werden.

Erfahre mehr über Arbeitsbereich Schiff.

Hintergrund
Die Arbeitsbereich Schiff arbeitet über Schiffsentitäten, die auf der bereitgestellten Geometrie erstellt werden müssen. Bei der Geometrie muss es sich um einen Festkörper (oder einen Satz von Festkörpern) handeln, wobei die folgenden Kriterien berücksichtigt werden müssen:
 * Die gesamte Rumpfgeometrie muss bereitgestellt werden (einschließlich symmetrischer Körper).
 * Die Steuerbord Geometrie muss im negativen Bereich "y" enthalten sein.
 * Der Nullpunkt (0,0,0) ist der Schnittpunkt zwischen dem Mittschiffsabschnitt (Mittelpunkt zwischen dem hinteren und vorderen Lot) und des Basislinie Abschnitts.

Loading Series 60 geometry
In order to help new users the Ship workbench includes a geometries example loader, with the following to choose from:
 * Series 60 from Iowa University
 * Wigley Canonical Ship
 * Series 60 Catamaran
 * Wigley Catamaran

Ship Geometries Examples loader icon

Executing the tool (Ship design/Load an example ship geometry) a task dialogue will shown. Select Series 60 from Iowa University and press Accept. Tool loads new document with s60_IowaUniversity geometry.

Create ship instance
In order to create a Ship instance select s60 geometry and execute the ship creation tool (Ship design/Create a new ship).

Ship creation tool icon

Creating a Ship task dialogue and some annotations in the 3D view will be shown. The annotations will disappear when you close the Ship creation tool, so don't worry about this.

Most relevant ship data must be introduced (the Ship workbench uses a progressive data introduction system, so basic operations can be performed knowing only basic ship data, more information is needed as the operations become more complex).

Ship data
Main dimensions must be introduced here:
 * Length: Length between perpendiculars, 25.5 m for this ship.
 * Beam: Total ship beam, 3.389 m for this ship.
 * Draft: Design draft, 1.0 m for this ship.

Length annotations.

Usually the Length between perpendiculars depends on design draft, so if you don't know what is the length of your ship you can set draft, and fit length in order to get bow and draft intersection.

Beam annotations.

Same process is valid for Beam fit. Note that requested value is total beam, but annotation is only refered to starboard half ship.

When you press the button, a new Ship instance is created called Ship in the Tags & Attributes dialog. We don't need geometry anymore, so you can hide it.

From here onward, you must have Ship selected before you execute any of the Ship Workbench tools.

Lines drawing
The Ship workbench provides a tool that makes it easy to obtain a Lines Plan from the ship lines drawing

Lines drawing tool icon

Lines drawing is a set of lines from section cuts in all 3 axis, that will eventually show the hull geometry in a Lines Plan. We need to provide the lines for the 3 following views:
 * Body Plan (using the Transversal Cuts)
 * Sheer Plan (using the Longitudinals Cuts)
 * Half-Breadth Plan (using the Waterlines Cuts)

Transversal cuts
Usually 21 transversal equidistant sections between perpendiculars must be performed. in order to do it FreeCAD provides an automatic tool in order to do it, simply select Transversal type of sections, go to Auto create box and set 21 sections, then press

Outline draw transversal sections preview

Sections table is filled and sections preview called OutlineDraw is shown. Usually more sections are added at bow and stern, where more complex curvatures are registered, to do this:
 * 1) Go to the end of the table and double click on an empty item in order to edit it.
 * 2) Press  to confirm.
 * 3) Add the following sections:


 * X22 = -12.1125 m
 * X23 = 12.1125 m

Depending hull geometry complexity, sections preview can take some time. In order to remove a section, just fill it with an empty text and press enter.

Longitudinal cuts
Two longitudinal cuts must be added, so select Longitudinal type of sections, go to Auto create box and set 2 sections, then press. Sections table is filled, and sections preview updated.

Waterlines
6 Waterlines between base line and design draft must be added, so select Waterlines type of sections, go to Auto create box and set 5 (Z = 0 m will not be considered, add it manually if you need it) sections, then press. Sections table is filled, and sections preview updated.

Several additional waterlines must be added:
 * Z6 = 1.2 m
 * Z7 = 1.4 m
 * Z8 = 1.6 m
 * Z9 = 1.8 m
 * Z10 = 2.0 m

Perform plot
Select 1:100 scale and press to let the tool to generate the 3D sections in a new object.

Resultant sections.

In order to plot these sections you can use the drawing workbench:

Outline draw plot.

Transversal areas curve
One typical ship design hydrodynamic parameter is the transversal areas curve, that retrieves some indicators about the behaviour of the hull (towing resistance, seakeeping, ...). The Ship workbench provides a simple tool in order to perform transversal areas curve.

Transversal areas curve tool icon.

When tool is executed a task dialog is shown, and free surface preview is created in the 3D view (Free surface preview will be removed when tool finished, so don't worry about this). Into task dialog input and output data is present.

Input data
Draft and trim (Hull y edge rotation angle, positive if stern draft may increase) must be provided. Several areas curves may be performed, depending on ship load situations, but two typical plot should be performed:
 * Design transversal areas curve: Without trimming angle and using design draft, 1.0 m in this case.
 * Maximum draft transversal areas curve: Without trimming angle, and maximum draft allowed, 2.0 m in this case.

Output data
Some relevant data is shown at real time:
 * L: Length between perpendiculars, value set at ship instance creation.
 * B: Beam selected at ship creation.
 * T: Actual draft amidships.
 * Trim: Trim angle.
 * TAP: After perpendicular draft.
 * TFP: Forward perpendicular draft.
 * Displacement: Ship displacement (salt water considered, divide by 1.025 in order to know displaced volume).
 * XCB: Buoyancy centre point X coordinate (relative to midship section).

When button is pressed a plot is performed (depending on geometry complexity can take some time, you can see progress on terminal, and stop the work pressing +). When the task has finished FreeCAD will generate a Plot (see the plot module documentation) and a SpreadSheet (see the Spreadsheet workbench documentation).

Design draft transversal areas curve.

You can perform maximum draft transversal areas curve in order to see the differences (for instance you are noticing that areas curve is passing through length perpendiculars now).

Hydrostatics
Hydrostatics computation is a critical stage at ship design due to know principal stability hull parameters. Hydrostatics are mandatory data in order to classification societies certificates ship, and joined with loading condition data (weights and gravity position) provides essential data about ship stability. FreeCAD-Ship provides a tool to obtain main hydrostatics curves (GZ curves are considered in other tool).

Hydrostatics tool icon.

When tool is executed a task dialog is shown. Usually Hydrostatics curves are presented for each trim angle, in this tutorial only upright trimming angle will considered (0º), with an interval around every loading condition draft. Since we don't know what loading conditions we can get, we will consider almost draft possibilities (Usually, in order to get as many resolution as possible, naval architects fits the interval to feasible drafts).

So we set following data:
 * Trim = 0 deg
 * Minimum Draft = 0.1 m
 * Maximum Draft = 2.0 m
 * Number of points = 39. A lot of points or really complex geometries imply long computation times, in this case around 1 minute can be expend.

When Accept button is pressed plots are performed (see the plot module documentation) and a spreadsheet is generated (see the Spreadsheet workbench documentation).
