Start year 2011 End year 2012 Funding (€) € 100,500 Website https://www.fhf.no/prosjekter/prosjektbasen/900643/ Summary The project is a continuation of the preliminary project “Optimization of cargo hold systems in the pelagic fishing fleet” which was prepared by INAQ for FHF. One of the conclusions in the report from this preliminary project was a recommendation of a project topic called ""Circulation / Flow"". It deals with the flow and circulation of refrigerated seawater (RSW) in cargo holds. The report proposes to map how different cargo hold designs affect throughput by comparing existing vessels.
As a feedback on the project sketch, a telephone meeting was arranged with FHF, a representative of the industry and SINTEF. The conclusion from the meeting was that the work is divided into two projects. Part 1 shall consist of gathering information about the current flow pattern and operating routines. This will form the basis for simple tests to illustrate the challenge of ""flow-free pockets"" in the tank depending on the species of fish and the degree of filling. From this work, one will arrive at hypotheses for how flow in the tank should be. The continuation, part 2 of the project, will consist of testing and modeling of these hypotheses.
Goal: o provide a basis for part 2 of the project where the goal is to contribute to improved cooling of pelagic catches on board by looking at which operating routines and flow patterns provide optimal cooling for the current and future pelagic fleet group.
Sub-goals
• To review previous reports and literature on flow patterns in RSW tanks
• To obtain operating routines from the current pelagic fleet and provide hypotheses for improvement measures
• To assess and show how flow patterns can be broken and provide hypotheses for how the flow pattern should be to avoid ""pockets"" in mind.
• To conduct work meetings with the pelagic fleet and describe the continuation of the work.
