The construction of the tank began in December 1995 and was completed in September 1996. It was equipped with a multi-directional absorbing wavemaker, and a X-Y carriage was installed in November 1998. It is a marvel of the ocean engineering tank design in Korea.
 
Overall size LxBxDxDw = 30x20x3x2.5 m
Pit size LxBxD = 6x5x3 m
 
 - Wave profile : Regular and random waves
 - Maximum wave height : 0.2m at 0.875Hz
 - Wave period : 0.5~5sec
 - Wave board : Flap type with breadth 0.5m
 - The carriage with a high power brushless servo-motor speeds up to 2.0m/s
 - The sub-carriage has a rotating 1.0m by 1.5m mount for model support
 
 
3. Circulating Water Channel
The facilities include one complete vertical type CWC for resistance tests, propeller open tests, and oblique self-propulsion tests. The divided CWC system, passing through the surface layer suction duct and the discharge duct of side wall, is adopted for the purpose of getting a uniform water flow at the observation section.
 
Measuring section size LxBxH = 3.0x1.0x0.8 m
Water flow speed range: 0.5~1.5m/s,
distribution : +-0.2%(90% area except B.C)
Total motor power AC 15kw x 2, 1750 rpm(impeller rpm 830)
 
 
4. Wind-Water Tunnel
The tunnel, of the open circuit suction type with a water tank, was completed in December 1998.
 
Test section size LxBxH = 10.0x2.0x1.8 m
Contraction ration 4 : 1
Wind speed 0 ~ 35 m/s
Fan power 110 kW
Turn table 1 = 1.8 m, 2 = 1.5 m
Water tank LxBxD = 9.0x1.8x1.5 m
