The problem of the transition to planing of a boat, in the presence of the effect of spray formation at the boat's leading edge, is investigated using a nonlinear steady-state solution of the equations of the theory of a directed fluid sheet for two-dimensional motion of an incompressible inviscid fluid. The motion of the fluid is coupled with the motion of the free-floating boat and detailed analysis is undertaken pertaining to such features as trim angle, sinkage, and propulsion force. The effects of the rate of energy dissipation arising from spray formation at the boat's leading edge, and changes in equilibrium depth, propulsion angle, and the boat's weight, are studied and shown to significantly influence the boat's planing characteristics.

An experimental and numerical investigation was conducted to study the turbulent velocities and stresses behind a two-dimensional bluff body. Simultaneous three-component laser-Doppler velocimeter (LDV) measurements were made in the isothermal incompressible turbulent flowfield downstream of a bluff body placed at midstream in a rectangular test section. Mean velocities and Reynolds stresses were measured at various axial positions. Spanwise velocity measurements indicated that the flow is three dimensional in the recirculation zone of the bluff body. Confidence in the accuracy of the data was gained by calculating the mass fluxes at each axial station. These were found to agree with each other to within ±3 percent. A parallel Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) study was initiated to gage the predictive accuracy of currently available CFD techniques. Three solutions were computed: a two-dimensional steady-state solution using the standard k-ε model, a two-dimensional time-accurate solution using the standard k-ε model, and a two-dimensional time-accurate solution using a Renormalized-Group (RNG) k-ε turbulence model. The steady-state solution matched poorly with the data, severely underpredicting the Reynolds stresses in the recirculation zone. The time-accurate solutions captured the unsteady vortex shedding from the base of the bluff body, providing a source for the higher Reynolds stresses. The RNG k-ε solution provided the best match to the data.

A method is described by which the diffusion of a gas in a liquid is measured by maintaining a bubble of the gas at constant size in the liquid. A steady state solution to the diffusion equation is seen to fit the observed experimental data. The measured diffusion coefficients for nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide in water at 25 °C are found in good agreement with previously determined values.

The problem of the squat of a "two-dimensional" ship is solved using a nonlinear steady-state solution of the differential equations of the theory of a directed fluid sheet. Particular attention is focused on the prediction of the sinkage and trim of the ship, and the results for a model ship qualitatively agree with available experimental data. Specifically, the solution presented here predicts the experimentally observed dependence of the sinkage and trim on the equilibrium depth of the water (regarded here as an incompressible, inviscid fluid), and predicts a nonzero drag for subcritical ship speeds (corresponding to the values of depth Froude number F < 1). The solution also exhibits certain detailed features of the sinkage curves which apparently were not observed in the experiments mentioned above. In this connection, additional relevant experiments are suggested.

A two-dimensional, rigid, rectangular, open tank without baffles is forced to oscillate harmonically with small amplitudes of sway or roll oscillation in the vicinity of the lowest natural frequency for the fluid inside the tank. The breadth of the tank is 0(1) and the depth of the fluid is either 0(1) or in-finite. The excitation is 0(ε) and the response is 0(ε1/3). A nonlinear, inviscid boundary-value problem of potential flow is formulated and the steady-state solution is found as a power series in ε1/3 correctly to 0(ε). Comparison between theory and experiment shows reasonable agreement. The stability of the steady-state solution has been studied.
