STUDY OF STACK-GAS FLOW ON LSD28- AND LSD32-CLASS SHIPS FROM TESTS WITH MODEL 4552 IN THE CIRCULATING-WATER CHANNEL.

Abstract

A test technique was developed by which stack-gas flow patterns can be predicted from tests in the circulating-water channel. Tests were conducted with a model of the superstructure of LSD28. It was determined that increased stack height and/or increased gas velocity is required to eject the gas beyond the turbulent boundary zone. Tests were conducted also with models of the superstructures of LSD28 and LSD32-35 fitted with TMB-designed stacks. The flow was observed to be acceptable with gas velocities in excess of twice the relative wind velocity. (Author)
