Presentation on Computer Programme of Speed Trial Analysis Complying with the ISO 15016 Speed Trial Analysis Guidelines for EEDI Verification at IMO Dr. Eun-Chan Kim of Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute (KORDI) had presentation as the title of "Computer Programme of Speed Trial Analysis Complying with the ISO 15016 Speed Trial Analysis Guidelines for EEDI" at 59th MEPC (Marine Environment Protection Committee) of IMO in July 2009. The speed trial analysis programme shall be one of important technical issues to verification of the EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index) of Greenhouse Gas Convention which is developing now at IMO. The ISO 15016 Standard was selected as a verification method for the EEDI at 59th MEPC. This is: ISO 15016:2002 Ships and marine technology – Guidelines for the assessment of Speed and power performance by analysis of speed trial data The computer programme ST10 was developed by KORDI in compliance with the ISO 15016 and supplemented by few methods to consider all influences under the speed trial condition. The programme was developed to implement the graphic user interface in a WINDOWS environment. Also, various analysis methods for resistance increase due to ship motion, wave diffraction, wind, steering, drifting, water temperature and salt content, deviation of displacement, hull and propeller surface roughness, and shallow water effects are contained in the programme. This computer programme was published at the 8th International Symposium on Practical Design of Ships and Other Floating Structures (PRADS) in August 2001. The programme is presently in wide use by major shipyards in the Republic of Korea This speed trial analysis programme ST10 shall be considered as the standard programme at IMO because this programme is unique in the world at present. And this programme would be open to member states of IMO for the purpose of speed verification of the EEDI.
