Sažetak
The basic objective of every designer when designing a ship is to determine the ship’s form, which will create less resistance as possible when sailing at a given speed. One of the main parameters that affect the ship form is the block coefficient. For this purpose, data were collected and a database of built modern bulk carriers, container ships, and tankers was created. There is a direct empirical relationship between the block coefficient and the Froude number. Many authors have investigated this relationship, resulting in a number of formulas for determining the block coefficient, mostly in relation to the Froude number. In this paper, the value of the block coefficient for three types of merchant ships is determined according to five formulas. The next step was the calibration and adjustment of these formulas to the created ship’s database by two proposed methods.
