Abstract
While a ship is sailing, wind is acting upon the ship hull above water. As a result, additional resistance,
as well as transfer drift force and drift moment emerge. The article presents an approximate method of calculating these forces for bulk carriers, in the form useful at preliminary ship design, when only basis ship
dimensions are known.
Introduction
Wind action on a sailing vessel
While a transport vessel sails on a given shipping route in real life conditions, its service speed is
affected by numerous factors, wind action among
others. If the wind is acting upon a vessel from bow
sectors, then additional resistance, as well as transfer drift force, as well as a drift moment appear (in
order to keep the vessel on a present shipping route,
this moment has to be counterbalanced by a rudder
plane and resulting carrying helm. Knowledge of
wind action on a vessel is important not only in
anticipating its speed, but also its steering. There
are various method of calculation of wind action on
the ship part above water, available in the literature
on the subject matter, most often, however, they
require the knowledge of aerodynamic resistance
coefficients, which depend – among others – the
shape of the ship part above water including superstructures.
During preliminary ship design, when the shape
of the ship part above water is not known yet,
models based on basic geometrical ship hull parameters are highly useful. The article presents an
approximate method of calculating wind action
forces on a sailing vessel (bulk carrier) useful at
preliminary ship design.
Mean wind action forces on a sailing ship can be
calculated from the formulas:

The coefficients CAx, CAy and CAm are mostly determined during the model tests [1] above-water
part of the ship in the aerodynamic tunnel or can be
calculated from the approximate formulas [2, 3].
These coefficients for a specific type of a ship, e.g.
bulk carriers, depend on a ship size to a small degree. Coefficients CAx, CAy and CAm measured in
aerodynamic tunnel for a bulk carrier [1] have been
approximated by a polynomial dependent only on
relative wind direction βRA, (Fig. 1). Obtained relationships have the following form:
(4)
βA  wind action against the vessel (βA = 0 wind
from the stern, βA = 90 wind at the bow);
 RA  arctan
 VRAy
(5)
VRAx
VA  wind speed;
γA  geographical wind direction, (γA = 0 – north
wind, γA = 90 – east wind);
V  ship speed;
ψ  geographical course of a ship.
In equations (1) drift angle β of a ship has been
neglected, since it will only have small value and
influence the relative wind direction βRA and hence
wind action only to a minimal degree.
Force RxA, in equations (1), is an additional resistance resulting from wind action, while moment
MzA can cause drift and change in a vessel course,
to counterbalance which steering devices have to be
used.

In equations (1) as well as in figure 1 it has been
assumed, that if a ship sails upwind, then wind action is additional resistance, however, with wind
from the stern, then wind action causes total resistance to decrease.

Forces RxA, RyA, as well as MzA moment of wind
action on the ship part above water depend among
other on the resistance of the ship shape above water (given by coefficients CAx, CAy and CAm in equation (1)), as well as the surface of the ship part
above water Sx, Sy. As a result, quantities CAx, CAy,
CAm, Sx and Sy for selected types of ships will be

Approximate method of calculation of the wind action on a bulk carrier
MzA
[Nm]
MzA from wind is shown on figures 13–15. On these
graphs, points mark the value of forces and moment
calculated according to equation (1) on the basis of
measurements in aerodynamic tunnel [1], as well as
measured surfaces, while a solid line represents the
values for a chosen approximation (7) for different
wind speeds and directions.
Additional resistance from wind action RxA in
total ship resistance constitute around 30% [4] depending on the ship size and wind speed on head
wave. Taking this into account, it can be concluded,
that the obtained exactness of approximation is on
the sufficient level to determine wind action on the
ship required at preliminary ship design.
