To address climate change, the shipping industry has undergone over a decade of regulatory developments aimed at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In response, Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) has been actively developing various energy-saving devices (ESDs) to improve fuel efficiency and meet emission targets. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) plays a vital role in designing and optimizing these technologies by accurately evaluating their hydrodynamic performance. This presentation introduces HHI’s recent CFD research and development efforts related to ESDs, with a particular focus on air lubrication systems and rotor sails, which have shown promising potential in real-world applications.
