organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

Introduction
Cavitation is responsible for significant propeller performance degradation and occurs at nearly all
propellers, causing often vibrations, noise and propeller blade erosion. It has been a common practice to
evaluate the propeller cavitation behaviour and its related hull pressure through model tests. However,
the model test might not show the full-scale cavitation phenomena.
Full-scale cavitation observations and hull pressure measurements are very helpful as feedback for
propeller design and prediction of full-scale performance through model test. This full-scale test method
is needed to establish more accurate model-ship correlation, to come up with better experimental
methods and to identify the cause of unexpected problems such as blade damage.
This document was developed to provide a standardized full-scale test method for propeller cavitation
observation and hull pressure measurement.

4 Instrumentation and implementation
4.1 General
For the ship installation of all test equipment, it is necessary to thoroughly review the drawings on the
ship subject to test, and the selection of sensor and equipment installation location, workspace and
transportation route should be reflected in the design and construction stage.
4.2 Cavitation observation
4.2.1 General
Various methods for observing full-scale cavitation have been developed so far. This document
introduces the characteristic of various cavitation observation methods and specifies the criteria for
the necessary preparations for the cavitation observation test.
4.2.2 Cavitation observation method
A traditional method using a CCD camera with a stroboscopic lighting source has been commonly
used for full-scale cavitation observation. Recently, a technique using a high-speed camera in daylight
condition has been used. This technique minimizes the number of observation windows compared to the
traditional method and enables to observe detailed motion of cavitation to study the phenomenological
behaviour of the cavitation.
Furthermore, instead of the existing observation window, a high-speed bore-scope technique has been
used in consideration of relative installation time and cost reduction. The small penetrations needed
for the bore-scope equipment can be drilled with the ship in a float condition, which reduces the
installation time from days to hours and saves money from expensive ship docking operations.
However, the high-speed bore-scope technique requires strong sun light and good water quality.
The observation windows are more robust against the weather conditions and sea conditions. Thus,
observation windows are still useful if there is sufficient construction time and space. Appropriate
equipment should be selected depending on the purpose, situation and timing of the installation.
Although frequency of image heavily depends on illumination condition, Table 1 shows several examples
of various observation methods for full-scale propeller cavitation.
