For the LNG carrier, the calculation of temperature distribution of cargo tank is necessary to select the steel grade and to estimate the boil-off rate(BOR). Since the previous studies with 2-D and 3-D method ignored the effect of several primary members, the effect was included by applying the better equations for the convection coefficient that is the most important item in this kind of study. After evaluating the program considering the primary members, the results are reflected to the design of the concerned LNG carrier.
