Wind load

Formula: F =0.5* r*V2*A*Cd

r 0.995 N/m3

V - wind speed (Windy.com) V 27 m/sec

V - wind speed (JTWC) V 40 m/sec
Cd - drag coeficient 2
(Cd for flat rectangular surface perpend to the wind direction)

for 27 m/sec for 40 m/sec

[kN] [kN]
FT 1,041 2,285
FL 3,697 8,113

Due to no accommodation/superstructure and rectangle hull

assume FL distibuted 50/50 between Fwd and Aft mooring set

FL/2 1,848 4,057

Revised mooring pland submitted by COSCO 30th of October 2019

Mooring ropes reaction loads

Assumptions:
Two worse case scenarios are taken in to account only
Wind from direction S
Wind from direction E
All mooring ropes are divided in to 3 groups (Forward, Aft, Astern)
For each group the load distribution factor was assumed 1/1.3 = 0.77 0.77
For all ropes the rope angle (cosinus 45 deg) factor was assumed 0.7 (no other factors for individual different angles) 0.7
To copmensate for the different stretch between Nylon and Dynema additional load contribution factor for Nylon ropes was assumed 0.3

formula:

Dynema ropes MBL 2373 kN

Nylon ropes MBL 920 kN

FORWARD AFT ASTERN

3 (20, 21, 22) 1 (25) 3 (24, 26, 27)
Number of Dynema ropes 6 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) 6 (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19) 7 (9, 10, 13, 16, 17, 18, 19)

Mooring ropes capacity 4,730 2,172 4,878

Safty factor (pass criteria) 27 m/sec 2.6 1.2 2.6
40 m/sec 1.2 0.5 1.2
