The Deepak-class tanker can carry 17,900 tonnes of cargo, including 15,500 tonnes of liquid cargo (water, ship and aircraft fuel) and 500 tonnes of solid cargo (victuals and ammunition).
The 2010 figure includes 5.6 million tonnes of liquid cargo, 2.3 million tonnes of general cargo, 2.0 million tonnes of bulk cargo and 254,000 tonnes of timber.
The greatest volume of cargo was recorded in 1980, when 20.2 million tonnes, including 13.1 million tonnes of liquid cargo, were transported.
Compared with the calculation results of ALE FE method, the linear sloshing model underestimates the influence of fluid structure interaction of liquid cargo tank while the Lagrangian Eulerian finite element method may be considered as the practical method for engineering applications as it provided more reasonable results with a relatively low central processing unit (CPU) time.
The numerical simulation results reveal that the fluid structure interaction of liquid cargo-filled tank has a significant effect on the motion and structural response of the struck cargo tank.
In this paper, we propose a model predictive control approach for optimizing the injection flowrate of CO2 gas to reduce the loss of liquid CO2 cargo and CO2 capturing and compression cost.
For shuttle transport of liquid CO2 in ship-based CCS, the cargo conditions were investigated in view of the pressure tank manufacturability, the cost of the tanks and the carrier vessel, the total energy efficiency of the CO2 flow, etc.
The data include several types of foreign going ships, such as containerships, general cargo ships, liquid tankers, dry bulk ships, and other ships.
The results are presented and discussed in terms of the comparisons: isolated versus side-by-side and solid cargo versus liquid cargo.
The children hid behind a row of grapevines, but they could taste the noxious blend of liquid sulfur, gibberellic acid, insecticide and fertilizer as the rig rolled past them, billowing out its chemical cargo.
