Wake Scale Effects and Propeller Hull Interaction: State of the Art.

Abstract

This survey reviews the progress of research on the dual problems of wake scale effects and hull propeller interactions. The survey covers theoretical, empirical and experimental results. The state of the art is defined in terms of those hull forms which have wakes which can be adequately predicted using currently available techniques. Suggestions of the manner in which the state of the art might be extended are presented. (Author)
