    [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus for improving propulsion efficiency. 2. Description of the Related Art
    [0002] Recently, various technologies have been developed to reduce energy consumed in the operation of ships.
    [0003] One example of energy saving technology is a duct disposed in front of a propeller.
    [0004] The duct generates additional thrust as it passes through a flow moving backwards along a surface of a hull. In this case, the duct may be a factor to increase the propulsion efficiency.
    [0005] However, because the duct acts as a resistance on the other side, it is also a factor to reduce the propulsion efficiency. SUMMARY

    [0008] The duct may have a camber having a convex shape in a direction toward the stern boss, and the plurality of pre-swirl stators may have a camber having a convex shape in the rotation direction of the propeller.
    [0009] The apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency may further include a first connector for interconnecting a first end of the duct in the rotation direction of the propeller and a first outer stator positioned last in the rotation direction of the propeller among the plurality of pre-swirl stators; and a second connector for interconnecting a second end of the duct in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller and a second outer pre-swirl stator positioned last in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller among the plurality of pre-swirl stators, in which the first connector may have a shape in which the first end of the duct and the first outer pre-swirl stator, which have different camber shapes, are continuously connected, and in which the second connector may have a shape in which the second end of the duct and the second outer pre-swirl stator, which have the same camber shape, are continuously connected.

    [0012] The centerline of the arc formed by the duct may be positioned above a rotation axis of the propeller.
    [0013] A distance between the centerline of the arc formed by the duct and the rotation axis of the propeller may be 0.1 times or more and 0.4 times or less of a radius of the propeller.

    [0016] The duct may have a camber having a convex shape in a direction toward the stern boss, and the plurality of pre-swirl stators may have a camber having a convex shape in the rotation direction of the propeller.
    [0017] The connector may further include a first connector for interconnecting a first end of the duct in the rotation direction of the propeller and a first outer stator positioned last in the rotation direction of the propeller among the plurality of pre-swirl stators; and a second connector for interconnecting a second end of the duct in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller and a second outer pre-swirl stator positioned last in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller among the plurality of pre-swirl stators, in which the first connector may have a shape in which the first end of the duct and the first outer pre-swirl stator, which have different camber shapes, are continuously connected, and in which the second connector may have a shape in which the second end of the duct and the second outer pre-swirl stator, which have the same camber shape, are continuously connected.
    [0018] The first connector and the second connector may be separately manufactured from the duct, the first outer pre-swirl stator, and the second outer pre-swirl stator, respectively, and be coupled to.

    [0022] In an exploded view of one surface facing outward of the duct, a curve formed by a leading edge of the duct may have a single curvature.

    [0024] An inner pre-swirl stator positioned between a first outer pre-swirl stator positioned last in the rotation direction of the propeller and a second outer pre-swirl stator positioned last in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller, among the plurality of pre-swirl stators, may be positioned in front of the first outer pre-swirl stator and the second outer pre-swirl stator.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
    [0030] The present invention may add various transformations and may have various embodiments. Therefore, specific embodiments will be illustrated in the drawings and described in detail in the detailed description. However, this is not intended to limit the invention to specific embodiments. It is to be understood that all transformations, equivalents, and substitutes included in the spirit and scope of the present invention are included. In describing the present invention, when it is determined that the detailed description of the related known technology may obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.
    [0031] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description with reference to the accompanying drawings, the same or corresponding components will be given the same reference numerals, and redundant description thereof will be omitted.
    [0032] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an apparatus for improving propulsion efficiency according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left rear. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a propeller removed in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the rear. FIG. 4 is a view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left side. It is noted that, in FIGS. 1 to 4, +X means the front, and +Y means the left direction.
    [0033] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, the apparatus 100 for improving the propulsion efficiency according to this embodiment includes a duct 110 and pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134.
    [0034] The duct 110 is disposed in front of a propeller 30. The propeller 30 is disposed behind a stern boss 20. The propeller 30 rotates to generate thrust. In this embodiment, the propeller 30 rotates clockwise as seen in FIGS. 1 to 3. In other words, the propeller 30 rotates clockwise when viewed from the rear.
    [0035] The duct 110 has an arc shape.
    [0036] For example, the duct 110 may have an arc shape extending from a lower left area to an upper right area with respect to a centerline AD of an arc formed by the duct 110 as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.
    [0037] As another example, although not shown, the duct may have an arc shape extending from an upper left area to an upper right area with respect to the centerline of the arc formed by the duct.
    [0038] An arc angle of the arc formed by the duct 110 is preferably less than 180 degrees.
    [0039] The duct 110 has a structure that partially surrounds the stern boss 20.
    [0040] The centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110 may be positioned above a rotation axis AP of the propeller 30 as shown in FIG. 4.
    [0041] Here, a distance H between the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110 and the rotation axis AP of the propeller 30 may be equal to or more than 0.4 times of a radius of the propeller 30. When the distance H between the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110 and the rotation axis AP of the propeller 30 exceeds 0.4 times of the propeller 30, the range in which the pre-swirl stator may be installed may be significantly limited.
    [0042] Further, the distance H between the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110 and the rotation axis AP of the propeller 30 may be 0.1 times or more and 0.4 times or less of the radius of the propeller 30.
    [0043] The duct 110 is positioned within a rotational area of the propeller 30. Here, a flow that passes through the duct 110 may flow into the propeller 30 in an aligned form, and the propulsion efficiency of the propeller 30 may be improved.
    [0044] Here, a radius of the duct 110 is less than or equal to the radius of the propeller minus the distance between the centerline AD of the arc of the duct 110 and the rotation axis AP of the propeller 30.
    [0045] The duct 110 generates thrust. For example, the duct 110 has an airfoil cross section and has a camber having a convex shape in a direction toward the stern boss 20. This will be described later.
    [0046] A lifting force is generated in the cross section of the duct 110 while a flow moving backward along a hull 10 passes through the duct 110. A component parallel to a longitudinal direction of the hull 10 (e.g., X-axis direction) of the lifting force acts as thrust for pushing the hull 10.
    [0047] The duct 110 may be supported by a stern of the hull 10 by a separate support member (not shown).
    [0048] The pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 support the duct 110 with respect to the stern boss 20.
    [0049] A plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 are provided.
    [0050] For example, the number of the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 may be four as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.
    [0051] As another example, the number of the pre-swirl stators may be three or five, although not shown.
    [0052] The plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 are disposed to be spaced apart in the rotation direction of the propeller 30 as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3. In other words, the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 may be spaced apart in an arc direction about the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
    [0053] For example, the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 may be disposed to be spaced apart from each other from the lower left area to the upper right area with respect to the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
    [0054] As another example, although not illustrated, the plurality of pre-swirl stators may be disposed to be spaced apart from each other from the upper left area to the upper right area with respect to the centerline of the arc formed by the duct.
    [0055] The plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 generate a swirl flow in a direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30.
    [0056] The swirl flow by the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 flows into the propeller 30 to improve the propulsion efficiency by reducing the swirl flow in the rotation direction of the propeller 30. In other words, when the swirl flow in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 is generated by the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134, an angle of attack of a flow flowing into the propeller 30 is increased to increase the thrust generated in the propeller 30, thereby improving the propulsion efficiency.
    [0057] FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left rear, in which a cross-sectional shape is added to a duct and a pre-swirl stator.
    [0058] Referring to FIG. 5, in the embodiment, the propeller (not shown) rotates clockwise when viewed from the rear. Here, in order to generate the swirl flow in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller (not shown), the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 have the camber having a convex shape in the rotation direction of the propeller (not shown) as shown in FIG. 5.
    [0059] The apparatus 100 for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the embodiment of the present invention as described above uses the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 for generating the swirl flow in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 as a support that supports the duct 110 for generating the thrust with respect to the stern boss 20.
    [0060] In this regard, unlike the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 according to this embodiment, a simple shaped support member is typically used to support the duct that is disposed in front of the propeller to generate the thrust. This simple shaped support member acts as a resistance, which is a factor in increasing the resistance of a ship.
    [0061] However, the apparatus 100 for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the embodiment of the present invention uses the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 to generate the swirl flow in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 as the support for supporting the duct 110. Therefore, unlike the convention, it increases the thrust of the propeller 30 and improves the propulsion efficiency.
    [0062] In this embodiment, the number of pre-swirl stators 132, 133, and 134 positioned at a port of the hull 10 among the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 is larger than the number of the pre-swirl stators 131 positioned in a starboard.
    [0063] More specifically, typically, looking into the distribution of wake into the propeller in a barehull state without the pre-swirl stator, in the port, the wake occurs in the same direction as the rotation direction of the propeller, and in the starboard, the wake occurs in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller.
    [0064] In the port where the wake in the same direction as the rotation direction of the propeller 30 is generated, the pre-swirl stators 132, 133, and 134 may change an inflow flowing into the pre-swirl stators 132, 133, and 134 at a small pitch angle (attachment angle) in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30. However, in the starboard where the wake in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 is generated, the inflow flowing into the pre-swirl stator 131 may be changed in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 only when the pre-swirl stator 131 is installed at a larger pitch angle (attachment angle) than that of the port.
    [0065] In this case, the increase in resistance due to the attachment of the pre-swirl stators 132, 133, 134 is small in the port that may generate the swirl flow in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 at the small pitch angle. However, the increase in resistance due to the attachment of the pre-swirl stator 131 becomes excessive in the starboard that may generate the swirl flow in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 only at the large pitch angle. Therefore, it is desirable to place more pre-swirl stators in the port than the starboard for high propulsion efficiency.
    [0066] In this embodiment, a first outer end of the duct 110 in the rotation direction of the propeller 30 and a first outer pre-swirl stator 131 positioned last in the rotation direction of the propeller 30 among the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 are connected to each other. As shown in FIG. 3, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 may be positioned in the right upper area with respect to the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110.
    [0067] A second outer end of the duct 110 in the rotation direction of the propeller 30 and a second outer pre-swirl stator 132 positioned last in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 among the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 are connected to each other. As shown in FIG. 3, the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 may be positioned in the lower left area with respect to the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110.
    [0068] In this embodiment, the duct 110 and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 are different in camber shape.
    [0069] More specifically, the duct 110 has a camber having a convex shape toward the stern boss 20 as shown in FIG. 5, and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 has a camber having a convex shape in the rotation direction of the propeller 30.
    [0070] In other words, the duct 110 has the camber having the convex shape toward an inside of a space surrounded by the duct 110, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132. The first outer pre-swirl stator 131 has the camber having the convex shape toward an outside of a space surrounded by the duct 110, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132.
    [0071] In this embodiment, as described above, the first end of the duct 110 and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, which have different camber shapes, are continuously connected.
    [0072] For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the first end of the duct 110 and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, which have the cambers having the convex shape in opposite directions, have a shape that the camber gradually disappears toward its boundary.
    [0073] In this embodiment, the duct 110 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 are identical in camber shape.
    [0074] More specifically, the duct 110 has the camber having the convex shape toward the stern boss 20 as shown in FIG. 5, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 has the camber having the convex shape in the rotation direction of the propeller 30.
    [0075] In other words, Both the duct 110 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 have the camber having the convex shape toward the inside of the space surrounded by the duct 110, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132.
    [0076] In this embodiment, as described above, the second end of the duct 110 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, which have the same camber shape, are continuously connected.
    [0077] FIG. 6 is a view showing a part according to the embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left side, in which the duct is omitted.
    [0078] Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, and the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 may have a swept-back stator shape. Here, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, and the inner pre-swirl stator 133 and 134 have a shape in which a leading edge is struck rearward from a root to a tip.
    [0079] In this embodiment, the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 may each be disposed on the same plane where trailing edges are perpendicular to the centerline AD of the arc formed by the duct 110. Here, the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 may be as close as possible to the propellers (not shown), and the swirl flow in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 generated by the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 may flow directly into the propeller 30, thereby improving the propulsion efficiency .
    [0080] In this embodiment, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, and the inner pre-swirl stator 133 and 134 may all have the same length of cord at the root. Further, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, and the inner pre-swirl stator 133 and 134 may all have the same length of cord at the tip. In addition, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, and the inner pre-swirl stator 133 and 134 may all have a length of cord at a root greater than a length of cord at a tip.
    [0081] Referring to FIG. 5, in this embodiment, the tips of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 may be fixed to an inner surface of the duct 110.
    [0082] Here, front ends of the tips of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned behind the leading edge of the duct 110, and rear ends of the tips of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned in front of the trailing edge of the duct 110.
    [0083] In this case, circular rods constituting leading edges of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 may not interfere with a circular rod constituting the leading edge of the duct 110, and circular rods constituting trailing edges of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 may not interfere with a circular rod constituting the trailing edge of the duct 110, thereby improving the workability. It is noted that coupling an end of one rod to a side of another rod is much less workable than coupling an end of one rod to a surface of a plate.
    [0084] FIG. 7 is a view showing an exploded view of an outer surface of a combination of the duct, a first outer pre-swirl stator, and a second outer pre-swirl stator according to the embodiment of the present invention.
    [0085] Referring to FIG. 7, in the exploded view, a trailing edge 110b of the duct 110 may have a straight shape, and a leading edge 110a of the duct 110 may have a curved shape that is convex forward.
    [0086] In this case, the most convex peak portion in the exploded view of the duct 110 approaches the hull 10, so that the duct 110 is easily fixed to the hull 10.
    [0087] More specifically, the duct 110 having the exploded view as shown in FIG. 7 has a structure in which the peak portion protrudes forward as shown in FIG. 4. Here, the peak portion is closer to the hull 10 so that a short support member (not shown) may support the duct 110 with respect to the hull 10. Since the short support member is structurally larger in strength than a long support member, the duct 110 may be stably supported with respect to the hull 10.
    [0088] Referring to FIG. 7, in the exploded view, a curve formed by the leading edge 110a of the duct 110 may have a single curvature R. In this case, the duct 110 has a shape in which a length of the cord increases and decreases from a first end 110c to a second end 110d.
    [0089] Typically, the duct has a structure in which plates constituting a pressure surface and a suction surface are coupled to a circular rod constituting the leading edge.
    [0090] In the exploded view, in order to manufacture the duct 110 such that the curve formed by the leading edge 110a of the duct 110 has the single curvature R, the circular rod is bending processed to have one curvature. In this case, comparing to a case where the circular rod is bending processed to have two or more curvatures, the workability is greatly improved.
    [0091] Referring to FIG. 7, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 has a shape in which the length of the cord decreases from a root 131c to a tip 131d. The second outer pre-swirl stator 132 has a shape in which the length of the cord decreases from a root 132c to a tip 132d.
    [0092] FIG. 8 is a perspective view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to a further embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left rear. FIG. 9 is a perspective view of a propeller removed in FIG. 8. FIG. 10 is a view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the further embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the rear. FIG. 11 is a view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the another embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left side. FIG. 12 is a perspective view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the further embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left rear, in which a cross-sectional shape is added to a duct and a pre-swirl stator. It is noted that, in FIGS. 8 to 12, +X means the front, and +Y means the left direction.
    [0093] Referring to FIGS. 8 to 12, an apparatus 100' for improving propulsion efficiency according to the another embodiment of the present invention may include the duct 110, the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134, a first connector 150, and a second connector 160. The apparatus 100' for improving propulsion efficiency according to the another embodiment of the present invention differs from the apparatus 100 for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the embodiment of the present invention as described above in that it further includes the first connector 150 and the second connector 160.
    [0094] The first connector 150 interconnects the first outer end of the duct 110 in the rotation direction of the propeller 30 and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 positioned last in the rotation direction of the propeller 30 among the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134.
    [0095] The first connector 150 may be manufactured separately from the duct 110 and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and both ends of the first connector 150 may be coupled to the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 and the first end of the duct 110, respectively.
    [0096] The second connector 160 interconnects the second outer end of the duct 110 in the rotation direction of the propeller 30 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 positioned last in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the propeller 30 among the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134.
    [0097] The second connector 160 may be manufactured separately from the duct 110 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, and both ends of the second connector 160 may be coupled to the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 and the second end of the duct 110, respectively.
    [0098] In this embodiment, the duct 110 and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 are different in camber shape.
    [0099] More specifically, the duct 110 has a camber having a convex shape toward the stern boss 20 as shown in FIG. 5, and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 has a camber having a convex shape in the rotation direction of the propeller 30.
    [0100] In other words, the duct 110 has the camber having the convex shape toward an inside of a space surrounded by the duct 110, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132. The first outer pre-swirl stator 131 has the camber having the convex shape toward an outside of a space surrounded by the duct 110, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132.
    [0101] The first connector 150 according to this embodiment has a shape in which the first end of the duct 110 and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, which have different camber shapes as described above, are continuously connected.
    [0102] For example, the first connector 150 includes a first area 151 with the camber having the convex shape in the same direction as the camber of the duct 110 as shown FIG. 5, and a second area 152 with the camber having the convex shape in the same direction as the camber of the first outer pre-swirl stator 131. The cambers of the first area 151 and the second area 152 gradually disappear as they approach the boundary between the first area 151 and the second area 152, respectively.
    [0103] In this embodiment, the duct 110 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 are identical in camber shape.
    [0104] More specifically, the duct 110 has the camber having the convex shape toward the stern boss 20 as shown in FIG. 5, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 has the camber having the convex shape in the rotation direction of the propeller 30.
    [0105] In other words, Both the duct 110 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 have the camber having the convex shape toward the inside of the space surrounded by the duct 110, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132.
    [0106] The second connector 160 according to this embodiment has a shape in which the second end of the duct 110 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, which have the same camber shape, are continuously connected.
    [0107] For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the second connector 160 has a camber having a convex shape toward an inside of the space surrounded by the duct 110, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 160.
    [0108] FIG. 13 is a view showing an exploded view of an outer surface of a combination of the duct, a first outer pre-swirl stator, and a second outer pre-swirl stator according to the further embodiment of the present invention.
    [0109] Referring to FIG. 13, in the exploded view, a trailing edge 110b of the duct 110 may have a straight shape, and a leading edge 110a of the duct 110 may have a curved shape that is convex forward.
    [0110] In this case, the most convex peak portion in the exploded view of the duct 110 approaches the hull 10, so that the duct 110 is easily fixed to the hull 10.
    [0111] Referring to FIG. 13, in the exploded view, a curve formed by the leading edge 110a of the duct 110 may have a single curvature. In this case, the duct 110 has a shape in which a length of the cord increases and decreases from a first end 110c to a second end 110d.
    [0112] Referring to FIG. 13, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 has a shape in which the length of the cord decreases from the root 131c to the tip 131d. The second outer pre-swirl stator 132 has a shape in which the length of the cord decreases from the root 132c to the tip 132d.
    [0113] Further, the first connector 150 has a shape in which the length of the cord decreases and increases from the tip 131d of the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 to the first end 110c of the duct 110. In particular, a portion where the length of the cord decreases and increases in the first connector 150 becomes the shortest cord 153 in the first connector 150. The shortest code 153 of the first connector 150 corresponds to the boundary between the first area (151 of FIG. 10) and the second area (152 of FIG. 10). The second connector 160 may have a shape in which a length of cord decreases and increases from a tip 132d of the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 to a second end 110d of the duct 110.
    [0114] Reference numerals 131a, 150a, 110a, 160a, and 132a denote leading edges, and reference numerals 131b, 150b, 110b, 160b and 132b denote trailing edges.
    [0115] FIG. 14 is a view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to another embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left side. FIG. 15 is a view of a duct removed in FIG. 14. FIG. 16 is a perspective view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the another embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the left rear.
    [0116] Referring to FIGS. 14 to 16, an apparatus 100" for improving propulsion efficiency according to another embodiment of the present invention includes the duct 110, the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134, the first connector 150, and the second connector 160.
    [0117] The apparatus 100" for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the another embodiment of the present invention differs from the apparatus 100 for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the embodiment of the present invention in the front and rear positions of the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134.
    [0118] In this embodiment, the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned in front of the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132.
    [0119] Here, the front ends of the tips of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are also positioned behind the leading edge of the duct 110, and the rear ends of the tips of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are also positioned in front of the trailing edge of the duct 110.
    [0120] In this embodiment, a front-and-rear distance L of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 may be 0.05 times or more and 0.15 times or less of a length of cord of a root of the inner pre-swirl stator 133 and 134 or the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 or the second outer pre-swirl stator 132. It is noted that, in this embodiment, lengths of cord of the roots of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 are all the same.
    [0121] As described above, when the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned in front of the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, the resistance acting on the hull 10 is reduced compared to a case where the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 are all positioned at the same position in a longitudinal direction of the hull 10.
    [0122] This is because the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned to be separated from the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 by a predetermined distance L, such that the Venturi effect generated among the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 are weakened, thereby reducing the resistance applied to the hull 10.
    [0123] When the front-and-rear distance of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 exceed the range, a distance between the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 and the propeller (not shown) is increased so that a flow induced by the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 may not sufficiently flow into the propeller (not shown), thereby decreasing the propulsion efficiency.
    [0124] When the front-and-rear distance of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134, and the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132 are smaller than the range, the resistance to the hull 10 may increase due to the Venturi effect generated among the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134, the first outer pre-swirl stator 131, and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132.
    [0125] FIG. 17 is a perspective view of the apparatus for improving the propulsion efficiency according to the another embodiment of the present invention, which is viewed from the rear, and FIG. 18 is a view of a propeller removed in FIG. 17.
    [0126] Referring to FIGS. 17 and 18, an apparatus 100a for improving propulsion efficiency according to another embodiment of the present invention includes the duct 110 and the plurality of pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134.
    [0127] As described using FIG. 7, in an exploded view of the duct 110, the trailing edge 110b of the duct 110 may have a straight shape, and the leading edge 110a of the duct 110 may have a curved shape that is convex forward. The duct 110 has a structure in which a peak portion protrudes forward as shown in FIG. 4. Here, the peak portion is closer to the hull 10 so that a short support member (not shown) may support the duct 110 with respect to the hull 10. Since the short support member is structurally larger in strength than a long support member, the duct 110 may be stably supported with respect to the hull 10. Unlike those described in FIGS. 8 to 16, the separate connectors 150 and 160 may not be included.
    [0128] As described in FIGS. 14 to 16, the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned in front of the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132.
    [0129] The front ends of the tips of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are also positioned behind the leading edge of the duct 110, and the rear ends of the tips of the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned in front of the trailing edge of the duct 110.
    [0130] As described above, when the inner pre-swirl stators 133 and 134 are positioned in front of the first outer pre-swirl stator 131 and the second outer pre-swirl stator 132, the resistance acting on the hull 10 is reduced compared to a case where the pre-swirl stators 131, 132, 133, and 134 are all positioned at the same position in a longitudinal direction of the hull 10.
    [0131] Hereinafter, referring to FIGS. 19 to 22, the fuel saving effect of the apparatuses 100, 100', 100", and 100a for improving the propulsion efficiency according to some embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail.
    [0132] First, FIG. 19 is a case in which only the plurality of pre-swirl stators (see 131, 132, 133, and 134 of FIGS. 1 to 18) is installed in front of the propeller. FIG. 20 is a case in which the plurality of pre-swirl stators and a circular duct (i.e., full duct) are installed in front of the propeller. The circular duct is shaped so as to surround the pre-swirl stator in a circle. FIG. 21 is a case in which the plurality of pre-swirl stators and a partial duct are installed in front of the propeller, such as the apparatuses for improving the propulsion efficiency according to some embodiments of the present invention.
    [0133] The case in which only the pre-swirl stators are installed (FIG. 19), the case in which the pre-swirl stators and the circular duct are installed (FIG. 20), and the case in which the pre-swirl stators and the partial duct are installed (FIG. 21) are compared with a case in which only the propeller is installed (i.e., a case to be compared). Then, the fuel savings effect was tested and the results are shown in FIG. 22. In FIG. 22, a stator denotes a pre-swirl stator, a full duct denotes a circular duct, and a partial duct denotes a partial duct.
    [0134] Referring to FIG. 22, the case in which only the pre-swirl stators are installed (FIG. 19) had a 2.0% fuel saving effect compared to the case to be compared. The case in which the pre-swirl stators and the circular duct are installed (FIG. 20) had a 1.0% fuel saving effect compared to the case to be compared. The case in which the pre-swirl stators and the partial duct are installed (FIG. 21) had a 3.0% fuel saving effect compared to the case to be compared.
    [0135] In order to confirm why the fuel saving effect of the case in which the pre-swirl stators and the circular ducts are installed (FIG. 20) is relatively low compared to other cases, additional tests were made and the results are shown in FIGS. 23 and 24.
    [0136] Comparing FIGS. 23 and 24, it may be seen from FIG. 23 that the hull pressure drop occurs between under the stern boss and the circular duct (see D1). On the other hand, in FIG. 24, it may be seen that the hull pressure drop does not occur under the stern boss (see D2). When the hull pressure drop occurs, this causes a negative pressure at a lower part of the hull, which increases the hull resistance. Therefore, the fuel saving effect is lowered.
    [0137] Compared to the case in which only the pre-swirl stators are installed (FIG. 19), the reason why the fuel saving effect of the case in which the pre-swirl stator and the partial duct are installed (FIG. 21) is good is as follows.
    [0138] In the case using the duct (FIG. 21), all pre-swirl stators are connected to the partial duct in a multipoint support structure (i.e., a multiple support). Therefore, the case using the partial duct (FIG. 21) has a higher structural stability than the case in which only the cantilever type pre-swirl stators are installed (FIG. 19).
    [0139] In addition, in the pre-swirl stator which generates the swirl flow, cavitation due to end vortex may occur. Therefore, in the case in which only the pre-swirl stators are installed (FIG. 19), an additional shape such as a winglet should be mounted in order to reduce the cavitation of ends. However, since the case using the partial duct (FIG. 21) has a shape in which all the pre-swirl stators are surrounded by the partial duct, the end vortex is essentially blocked. Therefore, no additional device such as the winglet is needed.
    [0140] In the above, embodiments of the present invention have been described. However, those skilled in the art may variously modify and change the present invention by adding, changing, deleting, or adding components within the scope not departing from the spirit of the present invention described in the claims. It will also be included within the scope of the invention. Reference Numeral
