DEVELOPMENT OF A HYDROFOIL WATERJET PROPULSION SYSTEM TEST FACILITY,

Abstract

A test rig was designed and built, utilizing an existing planar-motion mechanism (PMM), for use in the high-speed towing basin. An experimental procedure and associated instrumentation were also developed for these experiments. An experiment using an existing nacelle-strut-foil hydrofoil model was made. (Author)
