Model Experiments of Rudder Working behind Propeller

Hisamitsu Shiba

Abstract

The characteristics of rudder working behind propeller are investigated with model tests.According to the above, they are much different from those of open rudder, and the existence of optimum rudder area ratio can be explained, at least, from rudder side.Finally, design-charts based upon these test results are presented for general use.
