Abstract

While theoretically advanced lifting surface codes do exist for surface piercing propeller (SPP) hydrodynamic analysis (Vorus, 1991; Young & Kinnas, 2004), none are without approximation and simplification. There is a somewhat obvious engineering approximation that is rational here and, by experience, results in consistently good SPP hydrodynamic designs. This is as follows:
