I am looking for the following papers: Hadler J.B.: The prediction of power performance on planing craft, Trans. SNAME 74 (1966) Hadler...
I have a colleague in Norway, who can do this for you very professionally and at reasonable cost. Please email me for further information....
Maybe Bruce Rosen will give you an academic license of SPLASH: http://www.panix.com/~brosen/
Yes you could use a Canard arrangement. At the relatively low speeds you are working - it can work. A Canard variant of the HYSUCAT system was...
I dont really understand the sense of matching the planform area of the foil to WSA of the hull. The is size of the foil is more closely...
Konstantin's spreadsheet is reliable. It is based on well proven and very well researched mathematical methods developed in Russia. They come...
Fnd = 2.20 is based on a large databases of model tests with lots of different hulls - some of them quite similar to yours. Believe me that you...
sounds like we have been through the same thing. The latest big disaster is the foil design of the WindCat 101:...
As a rough rule of thumb, HYSUCAT foils are effective when the Volumetric Froude number, FnD > 2.20 For other foil arrangements it can be less...
I fully agree with you - the cost and secondly an industry that is notoriously conservative. Even getting ferry operators to accept the "simple"...
I am not questioning your knowledge. You are probably one of the few people around who does understand hydrofoils well and certainly understands...
Ride control foils - which are not lifting foils but rather motion damping appendages - are the only application where actively controlled foils...
The H105 section is designed for low Reynolds numbers, typically for sailing hydrofoils that have problems with laminar separation bubbles. These...
I propose you choose a profile based on the Eppler-Shen profiles or something similar. These work well for shallowly submerged foils. Shen,...
