Optimization analysis and computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) have been applied simultaneously, in which a parametric model plays an important role in finding the optimal solution. However, it is difficult to create a parametric model for a complex shape with irregular curves, such as a submarine hull form. In this study, the cubic Bezier curve and curve-plane intersection method are used to generate a solid model of a parametric submarine hull form taking three input parameters into account: nose radius, tail radius, and length-height hull ratio (L/H). Application program interface (API) scripting is also used to write code in the ANSYS DesignModeler. The results show that the submarine shape can be generated with some variation of the input parameters. An example is given that shows how the proposed method can be applied successfully to a hull resistance optimization case. The parametric design of the middle submarine type was chosen to be modified. First, the original submarine model was analyzed, in advance, using CFD. Then, using the response surface graph, some candidate optimal designs with a minimum hull resistance coefficient were obtained. Further, the optimization method in goal-driven optimization (GDO) was implemented to find the submarine hull form with the minimum hull resistance coefficient (Ct). The minimum Ct was obtained. The calculated difference in Ct values between the initial submarine and the optimum submarine is around 0.26%, with the Ct of the initial submarine and the optimum submarine being 0.001 508 26 and 0.001 504 29, respectively. The results show that the optimum submarine hull form shows a higher nose radius (rn) and higher L/H than those of the initial submarine shape, while the radius of the tail (rt) is smaller than that of the initial shape.
Submarine propeller need some unique criteria can give bigger amount of thrust with noiseless. The submarine propeller design must able to produce the high thrust value, low pressure value, and smooth propeller streamline. This study investigates and compares some type of propeller that are B -7 series, B -8 series, Au -7 Outline gawn series, and Au -8 outline gawn series with some different parameters, that is blade diameter, number of blades, skew angle and pitch. From some models that have been compared, the best propeller is B -8 series on 500 rpm with thrust value 25481 N, torque value 3927 Nm, average value pressure about 10608,92 Pa, and turbulance flow with average value velocity stream under 14,33 m/s. flow. And the propeller B -8 type has a thrust 25,481 N, average pressure 10,608.92 Pa with average speed on streamline 16.35 m/s with smooth flow.The chosen propeller is used on the Submarine of Midget Type 150 m is Propeller B -8 series type with thrust 25,481 N, average pressure 10,608.92 Pa, with average speed on streamline16.35 m/s with smooth streamline.
