THE HULL PROPELLER RELATIONSHIP OF THE OCEANOGRAPHIC RESEARCH SHIP T-AGOR,

Abstract

The paper discusses the problems and solutions encountered in the design of the T-AGOR hull form. Five hull form variations were studied and model tested. The significance of hull shape, propeller location and transom immersion are discussed. Differences in the flow environment of cycloidal propellers are discussed and some criteria for the design of the hull for cycloidal propellers are brough out. A tabulation of data on the model tests is presented. (Author)
