The effects of angle of dead rise and angle of afterbody keel on the resistance of a model of a flying-boat hull

John M Willis

Abstract

Report presenting a series of models of flying-boat hulls tested to determine the effects of the angle of dead rise and the angle of afterbody keel on resistance and spray characteristics. Three angles of dead rise and three angles of afterbody keel were investigated. The results are expressed in nondimensional coefficients.
