- Description
- Military Sealift Command (MSC) requires a contractor to construct a wooden model of a ship hull and conduct resistance tests in a tank (model basin). MSC operates USNS OBSERVATION ISLAND. To improve the fuel economy of this ship, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study was conducted to investigate the economic feasibility of retrofitting this ship with a more effective bulbous bow. To verify the CFD results between the existing hull and one fitted with the proposed bulbous bow, model tests are recommended. MSC requires contractor support to construct a model of USNS OBSERVATION ISLAND and conduct a variety of resistance tests with the existing and proposed bows. The solicitation relating to this notice is available at www.msc.navy.mil. Click on Contracts (upper right hand corner of screen), click on Request for Proposals/Quotations, search by solicitation number N00033-07-Q-9049, and follow downloading instructions.
