rugged for use in field experiments  

Experiments to conduct, summer 2011

  • Purpose
    • Detection of flow separation at bow
    • Detection of helical vortex
      – Drag reduction during maneuvers
      – Characterization of pressure field in real
      operating conditions
    • Detection of helical vortex
      • less important
    • Drag reduction during maneuvers
    • Characterization of pressure field in real operating conditions
  • Experiments to perform
    • Circular maneuver in still water
      • could be done in Pandan Reservoir
      • characterize pressure change across the bow for manevers at different speeds and circle radii
