Deals with the prediction of speed and power in ships -- an important part of ship design. Describes the techniques used in ship model experiments as well as different types of experimental facilities. Considers different methods of estimating or determining speed and power. Questions regarding wake, thrust deduction, cavitation, and propeller design are covered. Correlates the interaction between ship, machinery, and propeller. Includes a thorough exposition of shipyards' and shipowners' needs for model testing. Extensive drawings and diagrams highlight the text.

Fundamentals of Ship Hydrodynamics: Fluid Mechanics, Ship Resistance and Propulsion Lothar Birk, University of New Orleans, USA Bridging the information gap between fluid mechanics and ship hydrodynamics Fundamentals of Ship Hydrodynamics is designed as a textbook for undergraduate education in ship resistance and propulsion. The book provides connections between basic training in calculus and fluid mechanics and the application of hydrodynamics in daily ship design practice. Based on a foundation in fluid mechanics, the origin, use, and limitations of experimental and computational procedures for resistance and propulsion estimates are explained. The book is subdivided into sixty chapters, providing background material for individual lectures. The unabridged treatment of equations and the extensive use of figures and examples enable students to study details at their own pace. Key features: • Covers the range from basic fluid mechanics to applied ship hydrodynamics. • Subdivided into 60 succinct chapters. • In-depth coverage of material enables self-study. • Around 250 figures and tables. Fundamentals of Ship Hydrodynamics is essential reading for students and staff of naval architecture, ocean engineering, and applied physics. The book is also useful for practicing naval architects and engineers who wish to brush up on the basics, prepare for a licensing exam, or expand their knowledge.

Excerpt from The Resistance and Propulsion of Ships In the development of such methods the purpose has been to supply plain paths along which the student may pro ceed step by step from the initial conditions to the desired results, and to arrange the method in such a way as shall con duce to the most intelligent application of engineering judg ment and experience. In the design of screw-propellers especially, where the number of controlling conditions is necessarily large, the purpose has been to present a mode of solution in which the most important controlling conditions are represented in the formulae, and in which the determina tion of the numerical values of these representatives by auxiliary computation, estimate, or assumption is forced upon the attention of the student in such a way as to call at each step for a definite act of engineering judgment.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ... noted experimentally, and have been made the subject of quantitative measurement in a series of experiments carried on by the author. This is what is frequently referred to by the statement that the addition of thickness results in a virtual increase of pitch, because if the equivalent pitch be taken as (longitudinal speed for zero thrust)--(revolutions), the result will be greater than that derived by the measurement of the driving-face, and the excess would be still greater could the tangential forces be eliminated. We have thus discussed various possible definitions of mean pitch and mean slip in order to show the variety of meaning which may be given to these terms, and the consequent inexactness of significance attending their use without some agreement as to the basis of definition. Our use of the equations of 36 will virtually assume the definition of mean slip as based on (e). That is, we shall assume, as will be Carnegie Institution. Publication. Number 79. explained later, that for the actual variable slip may be substituted some constant equivalent value for use in the equations giving the value of the total useful work. In regard to propellers of variable pitch it may be noted that such design is usually intended to provide for some variable distribution of slip over the surface, assuming the propeller to work in a uniform stream. When, however, we remember the great variability of the stream or wake, it is quite evident that any attempt to secure any specified distribution would be entirely futile, and that in any given case the actual distribution will be quite different from that intended. Hence any effects resulting from a variable pitch will be quite accidental, and it is very doubtful if, in the present state of...

David Watson Taylor (1864-1940), naval architect and engineer, made a very impressing career in the US Navy. He developed the first experimental ship model basin for the United States and became the Navy's chief constructor during WWI. His books about the building and operation of ships contain the most important scientific findings and leading ideas in the field of early 20th century naval engineering. The intention of this work is to treat in a consistent and connected manner, for the use of students, the theory of resistance and propulsion of vessels and to give methods, rules and formul which may be applied in practice. Reprint of the original edition from 1910.

Practical Ship Hydrodynamics provides a comprehensive overview of hydrodynamic experimental and numerical methods for ship resistance and propulsion, maneuvering, seakeeping and vibration. Beginning with an overview of problems and approaches, including the basics of modeling and full scale testing, expert author Volker Bertram introduces the marine applications of computational fluid dynamics and boundary element methods. Expanded and updated, this new edition includes: Otherwise disparate information on the factors affecting ship hydrodynamics, combined to provide one practical, go-to resource. Full coverage of new developments in computational methods and model testing techniques relating to marine design and development. New chapters on hydrodynamic aspects of ship vibrations and hydrodynamic options for fuel efficiency, and increased coverage of simple design estimates of hydrodynamic quantities such as resistance and wake fraction. With a strong focus on essential background for real-life modeling, this book is an ideal reference for practicing naval architects and graduate students.

This second edition provides a comprehensive and scientific approach to evaluating ship resistance and propulsion. Written by experts in the field, it includes the latest developments in CFD, experimental techniques and guidance for the practical estimation of ship propulsive power. It addresses improvements in energy efficiency and reduced emissions, and the introduction of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI). Descriptions have now been included of pump jets, rim driven propulsors, shape adaptive foils, propeller noise and dynamic positioning. Trial procedures have been updated, and preliminary estimates of power for hydrofoil craft, submarines and AUVs are incorporated. Standard series data for hull resistance and propeller performance are included, enabling practitioners to make ship power predictions based on material and data within the book. Numerous fully worked examples illustrate applications for most ship and small craft types, making this book ideal for practising engineers, naval architects, marine engineers and undergraduate and postgraduate students.
