    摘要: A tank state estimating method of estimating a state in a tank at a predetermined point in time on a sailing course of an LNG carrier is provided. The LNG carrier carrying LNG stored in the tank as a cargo. The tank state estimating method includes: a first step of acquiring information related to specification of the tank; a second step of acquiring information related to a state in the tank at a start point of a target section on the course; a third step of acquiring information on a predictive value of liquid fluctuation of the LNG in the tank during the section, the predictive value being obtained on a basis of a weather forecasting value during the section and information on the weather forecasting value; and a fourth step of calculating the state in the tank at an end point of the section by thermal transfer calculation based on thermodynamics on a basis of the information acquired in the first to third steps in assuming that a heat input to the tank during the section is used for vaporization of the LNG in the tank.

    摘要: Ship allocating device obtaining a shipping route data set indicating a shipping route of a routine transportation service, a ship number data set that indicates a number of ships used for the routine transportation service, and a schedule data set that indicates a schedule of assignments of ships for the routine transportation service. The ship allocating device obtains data sets indicating fluctuations in fuel consumption of ships. The ship allocating device calculates, for each of the candidate ships, fuel consumption required for the ship to traverse the shipping route indicated by the shipping route data set in accordance with a schedule indicated by the schedule data set based on the data set. The ship allocating device selects a number of ships equal to or greater than the number indicated by the ship number data set based on calculated fuel consumptions, and outputs data sets identifying selected ships.

    摘要: A ship's speed meter for measuring a speed relative to the water of a ship 10, the ship's speed meter including a wave transmitter 1 for emitting a sound wave toward a sea bottom 20, a wave receiver 2 for detecting a plurality of reflected waves, which are reflected waves of the sound wave having been emitted from the wave transmitter 1, reflected by a plurality of reflecting objects 30 positioned at different water depths, and an arithmetic processing unit 4 for calculating a ship's speed relative to the water of the ship 10 based on a frequency difference of the sound wave and the reflected wave. The arithmetic processing unit 4 obtains a change rate of a current velocity in a water depth direction by obtaining current velocities at a plurality of different water depths based on a frequency difference between the sound wave and the plurality of reflected waves, and calculates a current velocity at a water depth at which the change rate is smaller than or equal to a threshold value as the ship's speed relative to the water of the ship 10.

    摘要: Reception unit receives data indicating water temperature of a body of water through which a vessel voyages, vessel speed, and a period for which those values are maintained. From storage unit, index value acquisition unit reads out a decrease amount of anti-fouling paint corresponding to the water temperature and vessel speed received by reception unit. Index value specification unit specifies a decrease amount of anti-fouling paint in the period by multiplying the length of time of the period received by reception unit by the decrease amount read out by index value acquisition unit. Remaining amount acquisition unit integrates the decrease amounts of the anti-fouling paint specified by index value specification unit at the time of coating with the anti-fouling paint and onward. Remaining amount specification unit specifies a current paint film thickness of the anti-fouling paint by subtracting the decrease amount of the anti-fouling paint integrated by remaining amount acquisition unit from the paint film thickness at the time of coating with the anti-fouling paint.
