AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE STATIC HYDRODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SEVERAL SIMULATED FAIRED CABLES HAVING SYMMETRICAL NACA AIRFOIL SECTIONS.

Abstract

The results of a systematic experimental study of the static hydrodynamic characteristics of several cable fairing models are presented. In addition, the models were tested at a reduced ambient pressure. Photographs of typical cavitation and ventilation patterns are presented and the ventilation characteristics of all models are summarized. (Author)
