• Some hints
What is obtained?
• As a function of speed
• Resistance and effective power
• Running position
• Observations / recorded
• Wave pattern
• Streamlines, flow separation (requires e.g. strings and underwater camera)
Relation to propulsion tests
• Resistance of the model is needed when defining the thrust deduction factor.
• The wave pattern caused by the gravity force and the convective accelerations
are similar between model and full scale.
• Reynolds number is much smaller in model scale and viscous effects are
overestimated in model scale.
Model hull
• The flow is made turbulent using studs, copper strings, or sand roughning at the
bow. (In full scale, the flow is nearly always turbulent due to large Reynolds
number.)
Analysis
• Applied Froude scaling procedure (ITTC-57)
• So called form factor method (ITTC-78)
Analysis
• Calculate the average of each measured quantity.
• Extrapolation of the resistance to full scale. ITTC-57 (or ITTC-78)
• Effective power as a function of ship speed
• Trim and sinkage as a function of ship speed
• Some hints
What is obtained?
• At a given speed
• Delivered power
• Revolution rate of the ship propeller
• Analysis with the data of resistance and open water tests
• Wake and thrust deduction factors
• Hull efficiency and relative rotative efficiency

• Bow of the ship
• Rudder (close to the leading edge.)
• (Thrusters)

• You can adjust FM by changing the loading of the propeller (rotational speed n).
• In practice, it would be very difficult to obtain FM = RTM(VM).
• Instead, you need to measure the results both with FM > RTM(VM) and with Fm <
RTM(VM). Then, the values, which corresponds the situation Fm = RTM(VM), can be
solved by interpolation.
• An estimate for the range of the towing force: ± 10% … ± 15% of the resistance of the
model.

Measurements
• Measure the response for several loads
• Calculate the average for each response
• Some hints
Note: in your model tests, the heave is not necessarily measured exactly at fore perpendicular
(FP) and at aft perpendicular (AP). Measure the locations of the potentiometers!

Self-propulsion tests: First estimate on
the revolution rate 1/2
Starting point: You have the results from open water and resistance tests. You have a
rough idea on the magnitude of the thrust deduction (t) and wake (w) factors.
• Calculate the force RTM which compensates the too large frictional resistance coefficient
• Needed thrust T:
RM = (1-t)T+ RTM =
